Infant and Child Restraint Systems
We recommend that all infants and children be properly restrained at all times while the vehicle is in motion. All lap-
shoulder belts except driver seat have special seat belt retractors for secure fastening of child restraints. To fasten a
child restraint, use this seat belt: Follow child restraint instructions for routing. Then pull shoulder belt out completely
and let it retract. The belt is now locked. Push down on child restraint to take up any slack.
Important !
The use of infant or child restraints is required by law in all 50 states and all Canadian provinces. Infants and small
children should be seated in an appropriate infant or child restraint system properly secured by 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 statement 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. When using any infant or
child restraint system, be sure to carefully read and follow all manufacturer's instructions for installation and use.
Please read and observe warning labels affixed to inside of vehicle.
Warning !
Children 12 years old and under must never ride in the front seat, except in a Mercedes-Benz authorized
BabySmart™ compatible child seat, which operates with the BabySmart™ system installed in the vehicle to
deactivate the passenger side front airbag when it is properly installed. Otherwise they will be struck by the
airbag when it inflates in a crash. If this happens, serious or fatal injury will result.
The back seat is the safest place for children, infants and small children must ride in back seats and be
seated in an infant or child restraint system, which is properly secured with the vehicle's seat belt, fully in
accordance with the seat manufacturer's instructions.
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. Children too big for child restraint systems must ride
in back seats using regular seat belts. Position shoulder belt across chest and shoulder, not face or neck. A
booster seat is necessary to achieve proper belt positioning for children from 41 Ibs. to the point where a
lap/shoulder belt fits properly without one.
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.
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: This vehicle is provided with tether anchorages for a top tether strap. Consult your authorized Mercedes-Benz
dealer for installation of these anchorages. 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.
