Occupant safety
Introduction to the restraint system
The restraint system can reduce the risk of vehi-
cle occupants coming into contact with parts of
the vehicle's interior in the event of an accident.
The restraint system can also reduce the forces
to which vehicle occupants are subjected during
an accident.
The restraint system comprises:
RSeat belt system
RAir bags
RChild restraint system
RChild seat securing systems
The components of the restraint system work in
conjunction with each other. They can only
deploy their protective function if, at all times, all
vehicle occupants:
Rhave fastened their seat belts correctly
(Ypage 37)
Rhave adjusted their seat and head restraint
properly (Ypage 72).
As the driver, you also have to make sure that
the steering wheel is adjusted correctly.
Observe the information relating to the correct
driver's seat position (
Ypage 72).
You also have to make sure that an air bag can
inflate properly if deployed (
Ypage 40).
An air bag supplements a correctly worn seat
belt. As an additional safety device, the air bag
increases the level of protection for vehicle
occupants in the event of an accident. For exam-
ple, if, in the event of an accident, the protection
offered by the seat belt is sufficient, the air bags

Observe information regarding indicator and
warning lamps (Ypage 206) as well as display
messages (Ypage 186).
EBD monitors and controls the brake pressure
on the rear wheels to improve driving stability
while braking.
ADAPTIVE BRAKE
ADAPTIVE BRAKE provides increased braking
safety. In addition to the braking function,
ADAPTIVE BRAKE also has the HOLD function
(
Ypage 157) and hill start assist (Ypage 114).
Theft deterrent locking system

XTo activate: remove the SmartKey from the
ignition lock.
XTo deactivate: switch on the ignition.

SmartKey with you and lock the vehicle. The
engine can be started by anyone with a valid
SmartKey that is left inside the vehicle.
iThe immobilizer is always deactivated when
you start the engine.
In the event that the engine cannot be started
when the starter battery is fully charged, the
immobilizer may be faulty. Contact an author-
ized Mercedes-Benz Center or call
1-800-FOR-MERCedes (in the USA) or
1-800-387-0100 (in Canada).

Important safety notes
GWARNING
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the
SmartKey from the ignition lock. Always take
the SmartKey with you and lock the vehicle.
Do not leave children unsupervised in the
vehicle, even if they are secured in a child
restraint system, and do not give them access to an unlocked vehicle. A child's unsupervised
access to a vehicle could result in an accident
and/or serious personal injury. They could:
Rinjure themselves on vehicle parts
Rbe seriously or fatally injured by extreme
heat or cold
Rinjure themselves or have an accident with
vehicle equipment that may still be in oper-
ation even after the SmartKey has been
removed from the ignition, such as the seat
adjustment, steering wheel adjustment or
memory function.
If children open a door, they could cause
severe or even fatal injury to other persons; if they get out of the vehicle, they could injure
themselves when doing so or be seriously or
even fatally injured by any passing traffic.
Do not expose the child restraint system to
direct sunlight. The child restraint system's
metal parts, for example, could become very
hot, and a child could be burned on these
parts.
GWARNING
Do not carry heavy or hard objects in the
passenger compartment or cargo compart-
ment unless they are firmly secured in place.
Unsecured or improperly positioned cargo
increases a child's risk of injury in the event of
Rstrong braking maneuvers
Rsudden changes of direction
Ran accident
GWARNING
Combustion engines emit poisonous exhaust
gases such as carbon monoxide. If the rear
door is open when the engine is running, par-
ticularly if the vehicle is moving, exhaust
fumes could enter the passenger compart-
ment. There is a risk of poisoning.
Turn off the engine before opening the rear
door. Never drive with the rear door open.
!The tailgate swings out to the side when
opened. Therefore, make sure that there is
sufficient clearance.
iDo not leave the SmartKey in the cargo
compartment. Otherwise, you could lock
yourself out.

You can only open the rear door after unlocking
it first.
XPress the %button on the SmartKey.
XPress release button :and pull door han-
dle ;.

cle.
iIf the anti-theft alarm system is active for
longer than 30 seconds, mbrace is automati-
cally connected with the Customer Assis-
tance center.
Vehicle Health Check
With the vehicle remote malfunction diagnosis
(Vehicle Health Check), the Customer Assis-
tance center can provide improved support for
problems with your vehicle. During an existing
call, vehicle data is transferred to the Customer
Assistance center. The customer service repre-
sentative can use the received data to decide
what kind of assistance is required. You are
then, for example, guided to the nearest
Mercedes-Benz Service center or a recovery
vehicle is called.
If vehicle data needs to be transferred during an
MB Info call or a Roadside Assistance call, this is
initiated by the Customer Assistance center.
You will see the Roadside Assistance Con‐
nectedmessage in the COMAND display. If the
vehicle remote malfunction diagnosis is able to
