Infant and Child Restraint Systems
Warning!
Children too big for child restraint
systems should ride in rear seats
using regular seat belts. Position
shoulder belt across chest and
shoulder, not face or neck. A booster
seat may be necessary to achieve
proper belt positioning.
We recommend that all infants and
children be restrained at all times while
the vehicle is in motion.
According to accident statistics,
children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seating positions
than in the front seating positions.
Important!
Rear-facing child restraints must not be
used in the front passenger seat. They
could be struck by the airbag when it
inflates in a crash. If this happens, a
child in the restraint could be seriously
injured.
The use of infant or child restraints is
required by law in all 50 states and all
Canadian provinces.
When the child restraint is not in
use, remove it from the car or secure
it with the seat belt to prevent the
child restraint from becoming a
projectile in the event of an accident.
Infants and small children should be
seated in an infant or child restraint
system, which is properly secured by a
lap belt or lap belt portion of a lap-
shoulder belt, and that complies with
U.S. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard 213 and Canadian Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard 213.1. A state-
ment by the child restraint manufacturer
of compliance with this standard can be
found on the instruction label on the
restraint and in the instruction manual
provided with the restraint.
Infants and small children should never
be held on the lap while the vehicle is in
motion. During an accident they would
be almost impossible to hold, and could
be crushed between the adult and the
dashboard.
U.S.A. Models only:
Since 1986 all U.S. child restraints
comply with U.S. regulations without
the use of a tether strap.
Canada Models only:
Infants and small children should never
share a seat belt with another occupant.
During an accident, they could be
crushed between the occupant and seat
belt.
This vehicle can be equipped with
tether anchorages for a top tether strap.
Consult your authorized Mercedes-
Benz dealer for installation of these
anchorages.
When using any infant or child restraint
system, be sure to carefully read and
follow all manufacturer's instructions
for installation and use.
In compliance with Canadian Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard 210.1, child
restraint tether anchorage hardware is
attached to the tool kit located in the
trunk.
