WARNING
Electronic devices on the front-passenger
seat can affect the function of the automatic
child seat recognition, for example:
R laptop
R mobile phone
R transponder cards such as ski passes or
access passes
The front-passenger front airbag could deploy unintentionally or not function as intended
during an accident. This poses an increased
risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Do not place any of the devices mentioned
above or similar devices on the front-
passenger seat. If the front-passenger seat of your vehicle is
not equipped with automatic child seat rec-
ognition, this is indicated by a special sticker. The sticker is affixed to the side of the dash-
board on the front-passenger side. The
sticker is visible when you open the front-
passenger door.
Vehicles without automatic child seat recog-
nition on the front-passenger seat: if you turn
the key to position 2in the ignition lock, the
PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp
lights up briefly. However, the indicator lamp
has no function. It does not indicate that there is automatic child seat recognition on the
front-passenger seat. :
PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp
The sensor system for child restraint systems
in the front-passenger seat detects whether a special Mercedes-Benz child seat with a
transponder for automatic child seat recog-
nition has been fitted. In this case,
PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp :
lights up. The front-passenger front airbag is
disabled.
i If the front-passenger front airbag is dis-
abled by the automatic child seat recogni-
tion, the following remain enabled on the
front-passenger side:
R the sidebag
R the windowbag
R the belt tensioner
ISOFIX child seat securing system for
the rear seats G
WARNING
ISOFIX child restraint systems do not offer
sufficient protective effect for children whose weight is greater than 22 kg who are securedusing the safety belt integrated in the child
restraint system. The child could, for example,not be restrained correctly in the event of an
accident. This poses an increased risk of
injury or even fatal injury.
If the child weighs more than 22 kg, only use
ISOFIX child restraint systems with which the child is also secured with the vehicle seat belt. Also secure the child restraint system with the
Top Tether belt, if available. 54
Children in the vehicleSafety

When installing a child restraint system, be
sure to observe the manufacturer's installa-
tion instructions and the instructions for cor- rect use of the child restraint system. G
WARNING
The child restraint system cannot perform its protective function if it is not correctly fitted
to a suitable vehicle seat. The child cannot berestrained in the event of an accident, heavy
braking or sudden changes of direction. The
child could be seriously or even fatally injured.
For this reason, when securing a child
restraint system, always observe the manu-
facturer's installation instructions and the
correct use of the child restraint system.
For safety reasons, on the rear seats use only child restraint systems with an ISOFIX child
seat securing system which have been tested
and approved for Mercedes-Benz vehicles.
An incorrectly fitted child restraint system
could come loose and seriously or even fatally injure the child or other vehicle occupants.
When fitting the child restraint system, always
make sure that it is engaged correctly in the
ISOFIX securing rings on both sides.
! When fitting the ISOFIX child restraint
system, make sure that the seat belt for the
centre seat does not get trapped. Other-
wise, the seat belt could be damaged. X
Install the ISOFIX child restraint system on
both ISOFIX securing rings :. Comply with
the child restraint system manufacturer's
instructions when installing the ISOFIX
child restraint system. ISOFIX is a standardised securing system for
specially designed child restraint systems on
the rear seats. ISOFIX securing rings :for
two ISOFIX child restraint systems are fitted
on the left and right of the rear seats.
Top Tether Important safety notes
G
WARNING
Always engage the rear seat backrests in an
upright position before installing the Top
Tether belt. Push and pull the rear seat backr- ests to check whether they are engaged cor-
rectly. The rear seat backrest may fold down if
it is not engaged correctly. The child restraint
system is then no longer supported correctly
or held in position and can no longer perform
its intended function. This can cause serious
or even fatal injuries. Example: Top Tether belt with one belt strap
Top Tether provides an additional connection
between the ISOFIX child restraint system
secured with ISOFIX and the rear seat. It Children in the vehicle
55Safety Z

helps reduce the risk of injury even further. If
the child restraint system is fitted with Top
Tether, this should always be used.
The Top Tether anchorage points are fitted in the rear compartment behind the outer head
restraints on the parcel shelf.

Example: approval label on the child restraint system
"Universal" category child restraint systems can be recognised by their orange approval label and the text "Universal".
"Universal" category child restraint systems can be used on the seats indicated with U, UF or
IUF according to the tables "Suitability of the seats for attaching belted child restraint systems"
or "Suitability of the seats for attaching an ISOFIX child restraint system".
Semi-universal child restraint systems are indicated by the text "Semi-universal" on the
approval label. These can be used if the vehicle and the seat are listed in the child restraint
system manufacturer's vehicle model list. For more information, contact the child restraint
system manufacturer or visit their website.
Suitability of the seats for attaching ISOFIX child restraint systems
1 If you use a baby car seat from category 0 or 0+ or a rearward-facing child restraint system from category I
on a rear seat, you must adjust the driver's or front-passenger seat so that the seat does not touch the
rearward-facing child restraint.
3 Move the front-passenger seat as far back as possible. If you secure a child in a forward-facing child restraint
system on the front-passenger seat, ensure that the shoulder belt strap from the belt outlet on the vehicle is routed towards the front to the shoulder belt guide on the child restraint system. Set the belt height adjust-
ment so that the belt strap is routed towards the front along the bottom. Move the front-passenger seat to the
highest position and move the backrest to an almost vertical position. When doing so, ensure that the com- plete surface of the child restraint system rests against the backrest of the front-passenger seat and that thechild restraint system does not touch the roof. To do so, you may have to adjust the backrest down a little. For seats with electrical adjustment, the seat cushion angle must be set to the highest and most upright position.
5 For certain child restraint systems in this weight category, this can mean that the area of use is restricted as
the maximum size setting of the child restraint system is not possible due to possible contact with the roof. 58
