WARNING
According to accident statistics, children are
safer when properly restrained on the rear
seats
than on the front-passenger seat. Thus,
we strongly recommend that children be
placed in the rear seat whenever possible.
Regardless of seating position, children 12
years old and under must be seated and
properly secured in an appropriately sized
child restraint system or booster seat
recommended for the size and weight of the
child. For additional information, see the
"Children in the vehicle" section.
A child's risk of serious or fatal injuries is
significantly increased if the child restraints
are not properly secured in the vehicle and/
or the child is not properly secured in the child
restraint. G
WARNING
Seat belt presenter : must be retracted
while
the vehicle is in motion. Only when seat
belt presenter : is retracted can the seat
belt be properly positioned on the body and
protect the occupant as intended. Seat-belt extender (example: Coupe)
The
seat-belt extender for the driver and front
passenger helps you fasten your seat belt.
Seat-belt extender : is extended when the respective door is closed and the SmartKey
is
turned to position 1 or 2 in the ignition lock. You can also extend seat-belt extender
:
by
using the seat-belt extender button in the
center console.
X Press the seat-belt extender button.
Seat-belt extender : extends.
Seat-belt extender : is retracted again if:
R the belt tongue is engaged in the seat belt
buckle.
R the belt tongue is not engaged in the seat
belt buckle within 60 seconds.
R the respective door is opened.
R the

Install the ISOFIX child restraint system.
Comply with the manufacturer's
instructions when installing.
ISOFIX is a standardized securing system for
specially designed child restraint systems on
the rear seats. Securing rings for two ISOFIX
child restraint systems are installed on the
left and right of the rear seats.
Secure child restraint systems without a
LATCH-type (ISOFIX) child seat securing

G
WARNING
Always lock the rear seat backrests in their
upright position when the rear seats are
occupied by passengers. Lock the rear seat
backrests in their upright position before
installing the Top Tether straps or when the
cargo compartment is not in use. Make sure
that
rear seat backrests are secured properly
by pushing and pulling on the seat backrests.
If the seat backrest is not locked properly, the
seat backrest could fold forward. The child
restraint system is no longer supported
properly or held in position and can no longer fulfill its function. This could cause serious or
even fatal injuries.
The Coupe has Top Tether anchorages.
Top
Tether provides an additional connection
between a child restraint system, secured
with a LATCH-type (ISOFIX) child seat mount,
and the rear seat. This helps reduce the risk
of injury even further.
The Top Tether anchorage points are located
in the rear compartment behind the head
restraints.
