Introduction to the restraint system
The restraint system can reduce the risk of
vehicle occupants comin gintoc ontact with
parts of the vehicle' sinterior in the even tof
an accident. The restraint system can also
reduce the forces to which vehicle occupants
are subjected during an accident.
The restraint system includes the:
R Seat belt system
R Airbags
R Child restraint system
R Child seat securin gsystem
The components of the restraint system work
in conjunction with each other .They can only
offer protection if all vehicle occupants
always:
R have the seat belt correctly fastened
(Y page 47)
R have the seat and head restraint adjusted
properly (Y page 123)
As the driver, you must also make sure that
the steering wheel is also adjusted properly.
Observ ethe information on the correct driv-
er's seat position (Y page 122).
In addition ,you must make sure that the air-
bags can inflat eproperly if they are deployed
(Y page 50).
An airbag supplement sacorrectly worn seat
belt. As an additional safet ydevice, the airbag
increases the level of protection for vehicle
occupants in the even tofanaccident. The
airbags are not deployed, for example, in the even tofana ccidentinwhich sufficient pro-
tection is offered by the seat belt. In addition,
only thos eairbags, which in the applicable
acciden tsituation soffer additional protec-
tion ,are deployed in the even tofanaccident.
However ,the seat belt and airbag generally
do not protect against objects penetrating
the vehicle from the outside.
Information on how the restraint system
operates can be found under "Deploymen tof
belt tensioner sand airbags" (Y page 53).44

WARNING
If the restraint system is modified ,itmay no
longer work as intended .The restraint system
may then not perfor mits intended protective
function by failing in an accident or triggering
unexpectedly, for example. There is an
increased ris kofinjury ,possibly eve nfatal.
Neve rmodify parts of the restraint system. Do
not attempt to modify the wiring as well as
electronic components or thei rsoftware.
If it is necessary to modify an airba gsystem to
accommodate aperson with disabilities, con-
tact aMercedes-Benz Service Centre for
details. Restrain

The functions of the restraint system are
checke dafterthe ignition is switche donand
at regular interval swhile the engine is run-
ning. Therefore, malfunctions can be detec-
ted in goo dtime.
The 6 restraint system warning lamp in
the instrument cluster lights up when the igni- tion is switche don. It goe soutno later tha na
few seconds afte rthe vehicl eisstarted. The
components of the restraint system are in
operationa lreadiness.

WARNING
If the restraint system is malfunctioning,
restraint system components may be trig-
gered unintentionally or might not be trig-
gered at al linthe event of an accident with a
high rate of vehicl edeceleration. Thi scan

There is an increased ris kofserious or even

R Allo ther persons: the PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF indicator lamp must be off. Be
sure to observe the notes on "Sea tbelts"
(Y pag e46) and "Airbags "(Ypag e50).
There you can also find information on the
correct sea tposition.
Observe the information on automatic child

Introduction Ac
orrectly worn sea tbeltist he most effec-
tive means of restraining the movement of
vehicle occupants in the event of acollision or
if the vehicle overturns. This reduces the risk
of vehicle occupants coming into contact with
parts of the vehicle interio rorbeing ejected
from it. The sea tbelta lsoh elpstok eep the
vehicle occupants in the best position in rela- tion to the airbag being deployed.
The sea tbelts ystem consists of:
R sea tbelts
R bel ttensioners for the front sea tbelts and
the outer sea tbelts in the rear
R bel tforce limiters for the front sea tbelts
and the outer sea tbelts in the rear
If the sea tbeltisp ulled quickly or sharply
from the bel toutlet, the inertia reel locks. The
bel tstrap cannot be pulled out any further.
The bel ttensioner tightens the sea tbeltint he
event of acollision so that it fits tightly across
you rbody .However, it does not pul lthe vehi-
cle occupants back in the direction of the seat backrest.
The bel ttensioner does not, however, correct
an incorrect sea tposition or correct the rout-
ing of aseatb eltt hat is worn incorrectly.
If the sea tbeltisa lsof itted with abeltf orce
limiter and this is triggered, the force exerted by the sea
tbeltont he vehicle occupant is
reduced.
The bel tforce limiters on the front seats are
synchronised with the front airbags, which
take on apart of the deceleration force. This
can reduce the forces to which the vehicle
occupants are subjected during an accident.
! If the co-driver's sea
tisnot occupied, do
not engag ethe sea tbeltt ongue in the
buckle on the co-driver's seat. Otherwise,
the bel ttensioner coul dbetriggered in the
event of an accident and would have to be
replaced.

tective function if it is not fastened correctly. Also, an improperl yfastened sea tbeltc an

rest to an almost vertical position. When brak-
ing or in the event of an accident, you could
slide underneath the sea tbelta nd sustain
abdomen or neck injuries, for example. This
pose sani ncreased risk of injury or even fatal
injury.
Adjust the sea tproperly before beginning
you rjourney .Always ensure that the backrest
is in an almost vertical position and that the
