Important!
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.
The use of infant or child restraints is
required by law in all 50 states and all
Canadian provinces.
According to accident statistics,
children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seating
positions than in the front seating
positions.
Infants and small children should be
seated in an infant or child restraint
system, which is properly secured
by the lap belt portion of the lap-
shoulder belt, and that complies with
U.S. Federal Motor Safety Standard
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 or fatally injured.
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.

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.
U.S.A. Models only:
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.
Since 1986 all U.S. child restraints
comply with U.S. regulations without
the use of a tether strap.
Canada Models only:
When using any infant or child restraint
system, be sure to carefully read and
follow all manufacturer's instructions
for installation and use.
This vehicle is provided with tether
anchorages for a top tether strap.
Consult your authorized Mercedes-
Benz dealer for installation of these
anchorages.
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.
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.
