The airbags are designed to activate
only in certain frontal and front-
angled impacts. Only during these

The "SRS" is designed to reduce the
potential of injury in certain frontal
and front-angled impacts which may
cause injuries, however, no system

temporarily releases a small amount

authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer
immediately to have the system
checked; otherwise the "SRS" may not
be activated when needed.
We caution you not to rely on the
presence of an airbag in order to
avoid wearing your seat belt.
