Useful information
i
This Operator's Manual describes all
models and all standard and optional
equipment of your vehicle available at the
time of publication of the Operator's Man- ual. Country-specific differences are pos-
sible. Bear in mind that your vehicle may
not feature all functions described here.
This also applies to safety-relevant sys-
tems and functions.

Occupant safety
Introduction to the restraint system
The restraint system can reduce the risk of
vehicle occupants coming into contact with
parts of the vehicle's interior in the event of
an accident. Furthermore, the restraint sys-
tem may also reduce the forces exerted on the
vehicle occupants when an accident occurs.
The restraint system includes:
RSeat belt system
RAir bags The components of the restraint system work
in conjunction with each other. They can only
offer the intended level of protection if all
vehicle occupants:
Rare correctly wearing their seat belts.
(Ypage 32)
Radjust their seat properly (Ypage 61).
The driver is also responsible for ensuring
that the steering wheel has been correctly
positioned. Observe the information relat-
ing to the correct driver's seat position
(
Ypage 61).
Always ensure the air bag can inflate prop-
erly if deployed (
Ypage 34).
An air bag supplements a correctly fastened
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 example, if the protection already pro-
vided by a correctly fastened seat belt will
suffice, the air bags are not deployed. Fur-
thermore, only the air bags that would
increase the degree of protection afforded to
the vehicle occupants in the event of an acci-
dent are deployed. Seat belts and air bags
generally do not protect against objects pen-
etrating the vehicle from the outside.
Information on restraint system operation
can be found under "Triggering of Emergency
Tensioning Devices and air bags"
(
Ypage 40).
See “Children in the vehicle” for information on children traveling with you as well as
vehicle restraint systems (
Ypage 42).
Important safety notes
GWARNING
Modifications to the restraint system may
cause it to no longer work as intended. The
restraint system may then not perform its
intended protective function and may fail
in an accident or trigger unexpectedly, for
example. This poses an increased risk of
injury or even fatal injury.
Never modify parts of the restraint system. Never tamper with the wiring, the elec-
tronic components or their software.
If it is necessary to modify an air bag sys-
tem to accommodate a person with disabil-

Pets in the vehicle
GWARNING
If you leave animals unattended or unse-
cured in the vehicle, they could press but-
tons or switches, for example.
As a result, they could:
Ractivate vehicle equipment and become
trapped, for example
Ractivate or deactivate systems, thereby
endangering other road users
Unsecured animals could also be flung
around the vehicle in the event of an acci- dent or sudden steering or braking, thereby
injuring vehicle occupants. There is a risk
of an accident and injury.
Never leave animals unattended in the
vehicle. Always secure animals properly
during the journey, e.g. use a suitable ani-
mal transport box.
Protection against theft
Immobilizer
The immobilizer prevents your vehicle from
being started without the correct Smart Key.
XTo activate: remove the Smart Key from the
ignition lock.
XTo deactivate: switch on the ignition.
When leaving the vehicle, always take the
Smart Key with you and lock the vehicle. The
engine can be started by anyone with a valid
Smart Key that is left inside the vehicle.
iThe immobilizer is always deactivated
when you start the engine.
In the event that the engine cannot be star-
ted when the starter battery is fully
charged, the immobilizer may be faulty.
Contact an authorized Mercedes-Benz Cen-
ter or call 1-800-367-6372 (in USA) or
1-800-387-0100 (in Canada).

Driving safety systems
Overview of driving safety systems
In this section, you will find information
about the following driving safety systems:
RABS (Anti-lock BrakingSystem)
(Ypage 47)
RDistance warning function (Ypage 48)
Resp®(Electronic StabilityProgram)
(Ypage 49)
REBD (Electronic Brake forceDistribution)
(Ypage 50)
Important safety notes
If you fail to adapt your driving style or
become distracted, the driving safety sys-
tems can neither reduce the risk of accident
nor override the laws of physics. Driving
safety systems are merely aids designed to
assist driving. You are responsible for the
distance to the vehicle in front, for vehicle
speed and for braking in good time. Always
adapt your driving style to suit the prevail-
ing road, weather and traffic conditions and
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in
front. Drive carefully.
The driving safety systems described only
work as effectively as possible when there is
adequate contact between the tires and the
road surface. Please pay special attention to
the notes on tires, recommended minimum
tire tread depths, etc. (
Ypage 177).
In wintry driving conditions, always use win-
ter tires (M+S tires) and if necessary, snow
chains. Only in this way will the driving
safety systems described in this section work
as effectively as possible. For safety reasons, smart recommends that you
only use snow chains that have been specially
approved for your vehicle by smart, or fine-
link snow chains that are of a corresponding
standard of quality. For more information,
please contact a qualified specialist work-
shop.
ABS (Anti-lock Braking System)
General information
ABS regulates brake pressure in such a way
that the wheels do not lock when you brake.
This allows you to continue steering the vehi-
cle when braking.
The 0025 (Canada only) or 00DF(USA only) abs
warning lamp in the instrument cluster lights up when the ignition is switched on. It goes
out when the engine is running.
Important safety notes
iObserve the "Important safety notes" sec-
tion for driving safety systems (Ypage 47).
When ABS is malfunctioning, other systems,
including driving safety systems, will also
become inoperative. Observe the information
on the ABS warning lamp (
Ypage 132) and
display messages which may be shown in the
instrument cluster (
Ypage 121).
GWARNING
If ABS is faulty, the wheels could lock when
braking. The steerability and braking
characteristics may be severely impaired.
Additionally, further driving safety sys-
tems are deactivated. There is an increased
danger of skidding and accidents.
Drive on carefully. Have ABS checked imme-
diately at a qualified specialist workshop.
abs works from a speed of about 4 mph (6 km/h),
regardless of road-surface conditions. ABS
works on slippery surfaces, even if you only
brake gently.

Additionally, children could set the vehi-
cle in motion if, for example, they:
Rrelease the parking brake.
Rshift the automatic transmission out of
park position P or shift manual trans-
mission into neutral.
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.

Important safety notes
GWARNING
Combustion engines emit poisonous
exhaust gases such as carbon monoxide. If
the tailgate is open when the engine is
running, particularly if the vehicle is
moving, exhaust fumes could enter the
passenger compartment. There is a risk of
poisoning.
Turn off the engine before opening the
tailgate. Never drive with the tailgate
open.
GWARNING
If objects, luggage or loads are not secured or not secured sufficiently, they could
slip, tip over or be flung around and
thereby hit vehicle occupants. There is a
risk of injury, particularly in the event of
sudden braking or a sudden change in
direction.
Always store objects so that they cannot be
flung around. Secure objects, luggage or
loads against slipping or tipping before
the journey.
!Do not exceed the lower tailgate maximum
load of 220 lbs (100 kg). It may otherwise
become damaged.
!The tailgates swings backwards, upwards
and downwards when opened. Therefore,
make sure that there is sufficient space
above, behind and under the tailgates.
iThe opening dimensions of the tailgate
can be found in the "Vehicle data" section
(
Ypage 212).
Preferably stow luggage or loads in the lug-
gage compartment. Observe the loading
guidelines (
Ypage 142).
Do not leave the SmartKey in the cargo com-
partment. You could otherwise lock yourself
out.
