Lowering the roll bar
Children in the vehicle
Infant and child restraint systems
If the roll bar was raised manually:
Only use a BabySmartTM1
compatible child
restraint for the front passenger seat in
this vehicle.
If an infant or child is traveling with you in
the vehicle:
̈
Lift the switch for the retractable hard-
top.
ț
Secure the child using an infant or child
restraint appropriate to the age and
size of the child.
We recommend all infants and children be
properly restrained at all times while the
vehicle is in motion.
̈
Press and hold button 1 until the roll
bar is lowered.
If the roll bar was raised automatically:
Make sure the infant or child is proper-
ly secured by a belt at all times while
the vehicle is in motion.
ț
The passenger lap-shoulder belt has a spe-
cial seat belt retractor for the secure fas-
tening of child restraints.
̈
Press and hold button 2 until you hear
the roll bar lock into place.
Infant and child restraint seats and infor-
mation on choosing an appropriate re-
straint system can be obtained from any
Mercedes-Benz Center.
̈
Press and hold button 1 until the roll
bar is lowered.
To fasten a child restraint follow child re-
straint instructions for mounting. Then pull
the shoulder belt out completely and let it
retract. During the seat belt retraction a
ratcheting sound can be heard to indicate
that the special seat belt retractor is acti-
vated. The belt is now locked. Push down
on child restraint to take up any slack.
i
If you raised the roll bar manually using
the button, the roll bar will be automat-
ically lowered and then raised again
when you close and open the retract-
able hardtop.
To deactivate, release seat belt buckle and
let seat belt retract completely. The seat
belt can again be used in the usual man-
ner.
