GWARNING
Do not pass seat belts over sharp edges. They
could tear.
Do not allow the seat belt to get caught in the
door or in the seat adjustment mechanism.
This could damage the seat belt.
Never attempt to make modifications to seat
belts. This could impair the effectiveness of
the seat belts.
Fastening seat belts
GWARNING
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.
The seat-belt extender for the driver and front
passenger helps you fasten your seat belt.
Example: Coupe
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.XPress the seat-belt extender button.
Seat-belt extender : extends.GWARNING
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 : 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 SmartKey is turned to position 0 in the
ignition lock.
R you release the seat backrest and fold it
forwards.
R nobody is sitting on the front-passenger
side after approximately five seconds.
If you press the seat-belt extender button
after this, seat-belt extender : will not
extend.
