WARNING■The front seats and all head restraints must be adjusted to match the
body size at all times and the seat belt must always be fastened properly to
provide the most effective levels of protection to the passengers.■
Each occupant must correctly fasten the seat belt belonging to the seat.
Children must be fastened » page 23, Transporting children safely with a
suitable restraint system.
■
The seat backrests must not be tilted too far back when driving, as this
will impair the function of the seat belts and of the airbag system – risk of
injury!
WARNINGBy sitting incorrectly, the occupant is risking life-threatening injuries.
Driver’s correct seated position
Fig. 2
Correct seated position for the driver/correct steering wheel posi-
tion
Read and observe
on page 13 first.
For your own safety and to reduce the risk of injury in the event of an accident,
the following instructions must be observed.
Adjust the driver’s seat in the forward/back direction so that the pedals
can be fully depressed with slightly bent legs.
For vehicles equipped with driver knee airbags, adjust the driver's seat in a
forward/back direction so that there is a gap of at least 10 cm between the
legs and the dashboard in the vicinity of the knee airbag » Fig. 2 -
B
.
Adjust the seat backrest so that the highest point of the steering wheel
can be reached with your arms at a slight angle.
Adjust the steering wheel so that the distance between the steering
wheel and your chest is at least 25 cm » Fig. 2 - A.
Adjust the headrest so that the top edge of the headrest is at the same
level as the upper part of your head (not for seats with integrated headr-
ests) » Fig. 2 - C
.
Correctly fasten the seat belt » page 15, Using seat belts .
WARNING■
Maintain a distance of at least 25 cm from the steering wheel, and a dis-
tance of at least 10 cm between the legs and the dash panel at the height
of the knee airbag. Not maintaining this minimum distance will mean that
the airbag system will not be able to properly protect you - hazard!■
When driving, hold the steering wheel with both hands firmly on the out-
er edge in the “9 o'clock” and “3 o'clock” position » Fig. 2. Never hold the
steering wheel in the “12 o'clock” position or in any other way (e.g. in the
middle, inner edge of the steering wheel or similar). Otherwise, in the event
of airbag deployment, you could suffer serious injury to the arms, hands
and head.
■
Ensure that no objects are located in the driver's footwell, as they could
lodge in the pedal system whilst driving. You would then no longer be able
to operate the clutch, brake or acceleration pedals.

Seat belts
Using seat belts
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Correct routing of seat belt
16
Fastening and unfastening seat belts
17
Seat belts that are fastened correctly offer good protection in the event of anaccident. They reduce the risk of an injury and increase the chance of survivalin the event of a major accident.
The seat belts reduce the kinetic energy considerably. They also prevent un-controlled movements which, in turn, may well result in severe injuries.
When transporting children, observe the following information» page 23,Transporting children safely.
WARNING■Put the seat belt on before starting any journey! This also applies to otherpassengers - there is a danger of injury!■
Maximum seat belt protection is only achieved if you are correctly seated» page 12, Correct and safe seated position.
■
The seat backrests of the front seats must not be tilted too far to the rearotherwise the seatbelts can lose their effectiveness.
WARNINGInformation on dealing with the safety belts■The belt webbing must not be jammed in-between at any point or twis-ted, or chafe against any sharp edges.
■
Make sure you do not catch the seat belt in the door when closing it.
WARNINGInformation on the proper use of safety belts■Adjust the height of the belt in such a way that the shoulder part of thebelt is roughly positioned across the middle of your shoulder - on no ac-count across your neck.
15Seat belts■Along with the connection to the emergency call number, the system sendsthe predefined vehicle and occupant data time at the time of the accident (e.g.the vehicle identification number, the vehicle location, the number of unbeltedoccupants, the number of deployed airbags and other similar information) tothe emergency call centre.
■
If the vehicle is located in an area without an operational emergency call sys-tem infrastructure, then the vehicle data is not transmitted to the emergencycall centre.
Page 18 of 344
WARNING (Continued)■No two persons (also not children) should ever use a single seat belt to-
gether.■
The lock tongue should only be inserted into the lock which is the correct
one for your seat. Wrong use of the safety belt will reduce its capacity to
protect and the risk of injury increases.
■
Many layers of clothing and loose clothing (e. g. a winter coat over a jack-
et) do not allow you to be correctly seated and impairs proper operation of
the seat belts.
■
Do not use clamps or other objects to adjust seat belts (e.g. for shorten-
ing the belts for smaller persons).
■
The seat belts for second and third row of seats can only fulfil their func-
tion reliably if the rear seat backrests are correctly locked into position
» page 80 .
WARNINGInformation on the care and maintenance of safety belts■The belt webbing must always be kept clean. Soiled belt webbing may im-
pair the proper operation of the inertia reel » page 273.■
The seat belts must not be removed or changed in any way. Do not at-
tempt to repair the seat belts yourself.
■
Check the condition of all the seat belts on a regular basis. If parts of the
belt system become damaged (e.g. the belt webbing, the belt connections,
the inertia reel, the locking part etc.), the respective seat belt must be re-
placed by a specialist garage immediately.
■
Seat belts which have been subjected to stress in an accident must be re-
placed by a specialist garage. The anchorage points for the belts should al-
so be checked.
Correct routing of seat beltFig. 5
Routing of belt webbing over the shoulders and the lap belt/Rout-
ing of belt webbing for an expectant mother
Fig. 6
Seat belt height adjusters for front seats
Read and observe
on page 15 first.
It is important that the belt is properly routed to ensure seat belts offer the
maximum protection.
The shoulder part of the belt must run approximately over the middle of your
shoulder (never across your neck) and fit well against your upper body » Fig. 5
-
.
The lap part of the belt must run lap part of the belt must run in front of the
pelvis (must never run across your stomach) and must always fit snugly » Fig. 5
-
.
In the case of pregnant women , the lap part of the belt must be positioned as
low as possible on the pelvis to avoid exerting any pressure on the lower ab-
domen » Fig. 5 -
.

›
Then pull firmly on the belt to ensure that the seat belt height adjuster has
correctly locked in place.
WARNING■ Always ensure that the webbing of the seat belts is properly routed. Seat
belts which are not correctly adjusted can themselves cause injuries even
in minor accidents.■
A seat belt which is hanging too loose can result in injuries as your body is
moved forward by the kinetic energy produced in an accident and is then
suddenly held firm by the belt.
■
The belt webbing must not run across solid or fragile objects (e.g. specta-
cles, ball-point pens, keys, etc.). Such objects can cause injury.

Inertia reel and belt tensioners
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Inertia reels
18
Belt tensioners
18
Reversible belt tensioners
18
Inertia reels
Each seat belt is equipped with an inertia reel.
When pulling slowly on the seat belt, the belt can move freely. When pulling
sharply on the seat belt, the movement is locked by the inertia reel. The belts
also lock when full braking, when the car accelerates, when driving downhill
and when cornering.
WARNINGIf the seat belt does not lock when pulling sharply on it, have the inertia
reel inspected immediately by a specialist garage.
Belt tensioners
The safety for the driver, front passenger and the two passengers on the outer
seats of the second row of seats who are wearing seat belts is enhanced by
the belt tensioners fitted to the inertia reels of the front seats and the outer
seats of the second row of seats.
If there is a collision with a certain severity the seat belts are tightened by the
belt tensioner so that unwanted body motion is prevented.
Belt tensioners are not activated in the event of minor collisions, in the case
of a roll-over and also not in accidents in which no major forces are produced.WARNING■ Any work on the belt tensioner system, including the removal and instal-
lation of system components because of other repair work, must only be
carried out by a specialist garage.■
If the belt tensioners have been deployed, it is then necessary to replace
the entire system.
Note
■ The belt tensioners can also be deployed if the seat belts are not fastened.■Smoke is generated when the belt tensioners are deployed. This is not an in-
dication of a fire in the vehicle.
Reversible belt tensioners
As part of the proactive passenger protection system, reversible seat belts in-
crease the safety of the belted up driver and front passenger.
In critical driving situations the seat belt is tensioned tightly over the body and
then released again be the reversible belt tensioner.

As a supplement to the seat belts, the airbag system provides additional pas-
senger protection in the event of severe frontal and side collisions.
The best possible protective effect of the airbag can only be achieved if the
seat belts are applied properly. The airbag is not a substitute for the seat
belts .
The functional status of the airbag system is indicated by the warning light
in the instrument cluster » page 37.

Front airbags
Driver’s knee airbag
Front side airbags
ABCRear side airbags
Head airbags
Front airbags - The forward movement of the driver and of the front passen-
ger is cushioned when they make contact with the fully inflated airbag, and
the risk of injury to head and chest is thus reduced.
The front airbags are provided with the lettering
on the steering wheel
and on the dashboard on the front passenger side.
Driver´s knee airbag - The forward movement of the body is cushioned when
it makes contact with the fully inflated airbag, and the risk of injury to the legs
of the driver is thus reduced.
The knee airbag is provided with the lettering on the dashboard on the
driver's side.
Side airbags - The load of the occupants is cushioned when plunged into the
fully inflated airbag. The risk of injury to the entire upper body (chest, stomach
and pelvis) is reduced on the side facing the door.
The side air bags are marked by a label with the lettering on the front
seat backrests. The rear side airbags are provided with the lettering in
between the entrance area and the rear seat backrest.
Head airbags - The forward movement of the body is cushioned when it
makes contact with the fully inflated airbag, and the risk of injury to head and
chest is thus reduced.
The head airbags are provided with the lettering marked on the B-pillar
cladding.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the airbag system consists of the
following parts. ▶ Individual airbags.
▶ Warning light in the instrument cluster
» page 37.
▶ Key switch for the front passenger airbag » page 22.
▶ Warning light for the front passenger airbag in the middle of the dash panel
» page 22 .DE19Airbag system
Page 22 of 344
Airbag deploymentFig. 10
Inflated airbags
The airbag system is only functional when the ignition is switched on.
When triggered, the airbag is filled with gas and unfolds. The inflation of the
airbag is carried out in a fraction of a second.
Upon inflation of the airbag, smoke is released. This is not an indication of a fire in the vehicle.
Triggering conditions
It is not possible to generally determine which deployment conditions apply to
the airbag system in every situation. Important here is the hardness of the ob-
ject on which the vehicle impacts, the impact angle, the vehicle speed, etc.
The deceleration plays an important role in the deployment of the airbags. If
the vehicle deceleration which occurs and is measured during the collision re-
mains below the prescribed reference values specified in the control unit, the
airbags are not deployed although the vehicle may well suffer severe damage
to the bodywork as a consequence of the accident.
The following airbags will be deployed in the event of a severe frontal
collision.
▶ Driver’s front airbag.
▶ Front passenger airbag.
▶ Driver’s knee airbag.
The following airbags will be deployed in the event of a severe side collision.
▶ Front side airbag.
▶ Rear side airbag.
▶ Head airbag.
When an airbag is deployed, the following events occur. ▶ The hazard warning lights are switched on.
▶ All doors are unlocked.
▶ The fuel supply to the engine is interrupted.
▶ The interior light comes on (if the automatic operation of the interior light is
switched on - switch
).
When there is no air bag deployment?
With minor frontal and side collisions, rear collision, overturning of the vehicle
or vehicle roll-over there is no airbag deployment.
Safety instructions

Safe distance from the steering
wheel and the dashboard
WARNINGGeneral information■The best possible protective effect of the seat belts and the airbag sys-
tem can only be achieved in the correct seated position » page 12 .■
The airbag develops considerable forces when triggered, which can lead
to serious injuries or even death if the correct seating position or seated
position is not observed. This applies in particular to children who are
transported without using a suitable child safety seat » page 25.
■
If there is a fault, have the airbag system checked immediately by a spe-
cialist garage. Otherwise, there is a risk of the airbag not being activated in
the event of an accident.
