Safety and security
Occupant safety
a properly seated position and to wear their
respective seat belt.
For maximum protection in the event of a
collision always be in normal seated
position with your back against the seat
backrest. Fasten your seat belt and make
sure it is properly positioned on your body.
Since the air bag inflates with considerable
speed and force, a proper seating position
and correct positioning of the hands on the
steering wheel will help to keep you at a
safe distance from the air bag. Occupants
who are not wearing their seat belt, are not
seated properly or are too close to the air
bag can be seriously injured or killed by an
air bag as it inflates with great force
instantaneously:
the seat and steering wheel. If you have
any difficulties, please contact an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in severe injuries to you or other
occupants.
If you sell your vehicle, it is important that
you make the buyer aware of this safety
information. Be sure to give the buyer this
Operator’s Manual.
RDo not lean your head or chest close to
the steering wheel or dashboard.
RKeep hands on the outside of the steering
wheel rim. Placing hands and arms inside
the rim can increase the risk and
potential severity of hand/arm injury
when the driver front air bag inflates.
G Warning!
Accident research shows that the safest
place for children in an automobile is in the
rear seat.
There is a possibility for a side impact air
bag-related injury if occupants, especially
children, are not properly seated or
restrained when next to a side impact air
bag which needs to deploy rapidly in a side
impact in order to do its job.
RAdjust the front passenger seat as far as
possible rearward from the dashboard
when the seat is occupied.
ROccupants, especially children, should
never place their bodies or lean their
heads in the area of the door where the
side impact air bag inflates. This could
result in serious injuries or death should
the side impact air bag be deployed.
Always sit as upright as possible, wear
the seat belt properly and use an
appropriately sized infant restraint,
toddler restraint, or booster seat
recommended for the size and weight of
the child.
RSit with the seat belt properly fastened in
a position that is as upright as possible
with your back against the seat backrest.
To help avoid the possibility of injury,
please follow these guidelines:
(1)
Always sit as upright as possible,
properly use the seat belts, and
for children 12 years old and
under, use an appropriately
sized infant restraint, toddler
restraint, or booster seat
RMove the driver seat as far back as
possible, still permitting proper
operation of vehicle controls. The
distance from the center of the driver’s
