Re
stra int sy stem Pr
otection bythere stra int sy stem The
restra int sy stem includes thefo llowing:
R Seat belt sy stem
R Airbags
R Child restra int sy stem
R Child seat securing sy stem
In theev ent of an accident, there stra int sy stem
can:
R Reduce therisk of vehicle occupants coming
into contact with parts of theve hicle interior.
R Reduce thefo rc es towhich theve hicle occu‐
pants are subjected.
A seat belt can only pr ovide the best le vel of pro‐
te ction if it is worncor rectl y.Depending on the
de tected accident situation, seat belt tensioners
and/or airbags supplement the pr otection
of fere dby a cor rectly wornseat belt. Seat belt
te nsioners and/or airbags are not depl oyed in
eve ryaccident. In order
forth ere stra int sy stem toprov ide pro‐
te ction, ea chvehicle occupant mus t:
R Have their seat belt fastened cor rectl y.
R Sit in an almost up right seat position with
th eir back against the seat backrest.
R Sit with their feet resting on thefloor, if pos‐
sible.
R Alw ays be secured in an additional restra int
sy stem suitable for Mercedes-Benz vehicles
if th ey are under 1.50 m ta ll.
Ho wever,no sy stem available today can com‐
ple tely eliminate injuries and fata lities in every
accident situation. In particular, the seat belt
and airbag generally do not pr otect against
objects penetrating theve hicle from the outside.
It is also not possible tocompl etely rule out the
ri sk of injury caused bythe airbag deploying. Re

Re
stra int sy stem functionality When
the ignition is switched on, a sy stem self-
te st is per form ed, during which the6
re stra int sy stem warning lamp lights up. It goes
out no later than a few seconds af terth eve hicle
is star ted. The components of there stra int sys‐
te m are then functional. Re
stra int sy stem malfunction R
The 6 restra int sy stem warning lamp
does not light up when the ignition is
switched on.
R The 6 restra int sy stem warning lamp
lights up continuously or repeatedly during a
journe y. &
WARNING Risk of inju ryor fata l injury
due toa malfunction in there stra int sys‐
tem
If th ere stra int sy stem is malfunctioning,
re stra int sy stem components may be trig‐
ge red unintentionally or might not be trig‐
ge red at all in theev ent of an accident. This may af
fect the seat belt tensioner or airbag,
fo rex ample. #
Have there stra int sy stem checked and
re paired immediately at a qualified spe‐
cialist workshop. Fu
nction of there stra int sy stem in an acci‐
dent How
there stra int sy stem works is de term ined by
th e se verity of the impact de tected and the type
of accident anticipated:
R Frontal impact
R Rear impact
R Side impact
R Rollover
The activation thre sholds forth e components of
th ere stra int sy stem are de term ined based on
th eev aluation of the sensor values measured at
va rious points in theve hicle. This process is pre-
em ptive in nature. The triggering/deployment of
th e components of there stra int sy stem should ta
ke place in good time at thest art of the colli‐
sion.
Fa ctors whi chcan only be seen and measu red
af te r a collision has occur red cann otplay a deci‐
sive role in airbag deployment, nor do they pro‐
vide an indication of airbag deployment.
The vehicle may be deformed significantly with‐
out an airbag being deplo yed. This is the case if
only parts which are relatively easily deformed
are af fected and thera te ofvehicle deceleration
is not high. Con versely, an airbag may be
deplo yedev en though theve hicle suf fers only
minor deformation. If very rigid vehicle parts
such as longitudinal members are hit, forex am‐
ple, theve hicle deceleration may be high enough
fo rth is to happen. 28
