PRE-SAFE®takes the following measuresdepending on the hazardous situation detected:
Rthe front seat belts are pre-tensioned.
Rif the vehicle skids, the side windows and thesliding sunroof are closed.
Rvehicles with the memory function for thefront-passenger seat: the front-passengerseat is adjusted if it is in an unfavorable posi-tion.
If the hazardous situation passes without result-
ing in an accident, PRE-SAFE®slackens the belt
pre-tensioning. All settings made by PRE-SAFE®
can then be reversed.
If the seat belt pre-tensioning is not reduced:
XMove the seat backrest or seat back slightlywhen the vehicle is stationary.The seat belt pre-tensioning is reduced andthe locking mechanism is released.
The seat-belt adjustment is an integral part of
the PRE-SAFE®convenience function. Informa-tion about the convenience function can befound under "Belt adjustment" (Ypage 47).
PRE-SAFE®PLUS (anticipatory occu-
pant protection system PLUS)
Introduction
PRE-SAFE®PLUS is only available in vehicleswith the Driving Assistance package.
Using the radar sensor system, PRE-SAFE®
PLUS is able to detect that a frontal or rear-endcollision is imminent. In certain hazardous sit-
uations, PRE-SAFE®PLUS takes pre-emptivemeasures to protect the vehicle occupants.
Important safety notes
The intervention of PRE-SAFE®PLUS cannotprevent an imminent collision.
The driver is not warned about the intervention
of PRE-SAFE®PLUS.
PRE-SAFE®PLUS does not intervene:
Rif the vehicle is backing up
Rwhen the vehicle is towing a trailer and thereis a risk of a rear-end collision
When driving, or when parking or exiting a park-ing space using Active Parking Assist, PRE-
SAFE®PLUS will not apply the brakes.
Function
PRE-SAFE®PLUS intervenes in certain situa-tions if the radar sensor system detects animminent frontal or rear-end collision.
PRE-SAFE®PLUS takes the following measuresdepending on the hazardous situation detected:
Rif the radar sensor system detects that ahead-on collision is imminent, the seat beltsare pre-tensioned.
Rif the radar sensor system detects that a rear-end collision is imminent:
-the brake pressure is increased if the driverapplies the brakes when the vehicle is sta-tionary.
-the seat belts are pre-tensioned.
The PRE-SAFE®PLUS braking application is can-celed:
Rif the accelerator pedal is depressed when agear is engaged
Rif the risk of a collision passes or is no longerdetected
Rif Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC indicatesan intention to intervene
If the hazardous situation passes without result-ing in an accident, the original settings arerestored.
Automatic measures after an acci-
dent
Immediately after an accident, the followingmeasures are implemented, depending on thetype and severity of the impact:
Rthe hazard warning lamps are switched on
Rthe emergency lighting is activated
Rthe vehicle doors are unlocked
Rthe front side windows are lowered
Rvehicles with a memory function: the electri-cally adjustable steering wheel is raised whenthe driver's door is opened
Rthe engine is switched off and the fuel supplyis cut off
Rvehicles with mbrace: automatic emergencycall
58Occupant safety
Safety

You can thus avoid the risks that could arise asa result of:
Ran incorrectly categorized person in the front-passenger seat
Rdeactivating the front passenger front air bagunintentionally
Rthe unsuitable positioning of the childrestraint system, e.g. too close to the dash-board
Rearward-facing child restraint system
If circumstances require you to secure a child ina rearward-facing child restraint system on thefront-passenger seat, always make sure that thefront passenger front air bag is deactivated.Only if the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicatorlamp is lit continuously (Ypage 44), is the frontpassenger front air bag deactivated.
Always observe the child restraint system man-ufacturer's installation and operating instruc-tions.
Forward-facing child restraint system
If it is absolutely necessary to install a forward-facing child restraint system on the front-passenger seat, always move the front-passenger seat as far back as possible. Fullyretract the seat cushion length. The entire baseof the child restraint system must always rest onthe seat cushion of the front-passenger seat.The backrest of the child restraint system mustlie as flat as possible against the backrest of thefront-passenger seat. The child restraint systemmust not touch the roof or be subjected to a loadby the head restraint. Adjust the angle of theseat backrest and the head restraint positionaccordingly. Always make sure that the shoul-der belt strap is correctly routed from the vehi-cle belt outlet to the shoulder belt guide on thechild restraint system. The shoulder belt strapmust be routed forward and down from the vehi-cle belt outlet. If necessary, adjust the vehiclebelt outlet and the front-passenger seat accord-ingly.
Always observe the child restraint system man-ufacturer's installation and operating instruc-tions.

direct sunlight, parts may get very hot. Chil-
dren may burn themselves on these parts,
particularly on the metal parts of the child
restraint system. There is a risk of injury.
If you leave the vehicle, taking the child with
you, always ensure that the child restraint
system is not exposed to direct sunlight. Pro-
tect it with a blanket, for example. If the child
restraint system has been exposed to direct
sunlight, let it cool down before securing the
child in it. Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle.
Child-proof locks for the rear doors

Important safety notes
GWARNING
If children are left unsupervised in the vehicle,
they could:
Ropen the doors, thus endangering other
people or road users.
Rget out and disrupt traffic.
Roperate the vehicle's equipment.
Additionally, children could set the vehicle in
motion if, for example, they:
Rrelease the parking brake.
Rshifting the automatic transmission out of
park positionP
RStart the engine.
There is a risk of an accident and injury.
When leaving the vehicle, always take the
SmartKey with you and lock the vehicle. Never
leave children or animals unattended in the
vehicle. Always keep the SmartKey out of
reach of children.
GWARNING
If you attach heavy or large objects to the
SmartKey, the SmartKey could be uninten-
tionally turned in the ignition lock. This could
cause the engine to be switched off. There is a
risk of an accident.
Do not attach any heavy or large objects to the
SmartKey. Remove any bulky key rings before
inserting the SmartKey into the ignition lock.
!Keep the SmartKey away from strong mag-netic fields. Otherwise, the remote controlfunction could be affected.
Strong magnetic fields can occur in the vicin-ity of powerful electrical installations.
Do not keep the SmartKey:
Rwith electronic devices, e.g. a mobile phoneor another SmartKey.
Rwith metallic objects, e.g. coins or metal foil.
Rinside metallic objects, e.g. a metal case.
This can affect the functionality of the Smart-Key.
Vehicles with KEYLESS-GO start function:donot keep the SmartKey in the cargo compart-ment. Otherwise, the SmartKey may not bedetected, e.g. when starting the engine usingthe Start/Stop button.
A brief radio connection between the vehicleand the SmartKey determines whether a validSmartKey is in, or in the direct vicinity of, thevehicle. This occurs, for example:
Rwhen starting the engine
Rwhile driving
Rwhen using HANDS-FREE ACCESS
Rwhen the external door handles are touched
Rduring convenience closing
