Thorax/pelvis air bags0043deploy next to the
outer bolster of the seat backrest.
When deployed, the thorax/pelvis air bags
offer additional thorax and pelvis protec-
tion.
In the event of a side impact, the thorax/
pelvis air bag is deployed on the side on
which the impact occurs.
The thorax/pelvis air bag on the front-
passenger side deploys under the following
conditions:
Rthe OCS system detects that the front-
passenger seat is occupied or
Rthe belt tongue is engaged in the belt
buckle of the front-passenger seat
If the belt tongue is engaged in the belt
buckle, the thorax/pelvis air bag on the
front-passenger side deploys if an appro-
priate accident situation occurs. In this
case, deployment is independent of whether
the front-passenger seat is occupied or not.
Window curtain air bags
Window curtain air bags 0043are integrated
into the side of the roof frame above the
doors. When deployed, the window curtain air bag
enhances the level of protection for the head.
However, it does not protect the chest or arms.
In the event of a side impact, the window cur-
tain air bag is deployed on the side on which
the impact occurs.
If the system determines that they can offer
additional protection to that provided by the
seat belt, a window curtain air bag may be
deployed in other accident situations
(
Ypage 40).
Occupant Classification System (OCS)
Introduction
The Occupant Classification System (OCS)
categorizes the person in the front-
passenger seat. Depending on that result, the
front-passenger front air bag and front-
passenger knee bag are either enabled or
deactivated.
The system does not deactivate:
Rthe thorax/pelvis air bag
Rthe window curtain air bag
Rthe Emergency Tensioning Devices
Prerequisites
To be classified correctly, the front
passenger must sit:
Rwith the seat belt fastened correctly
Rin an almost upright position with their
back against the seat backrest
Rwith their feet resting on the floor, if pos-
sible
If the front passenger does not observe these
conditions, OCS may produce a false classi-
fication, e.g. because the front passenger:
Rtransfers their weight by supporting them-
selves on a vehicle armrest
Rsits in such a way that their weight is
raised from the seat cushion
If you install a child restraint system on the
front-passenger seat, be sure to observe the
correct positioning of the child restraint
system. Never place objects under or behind
the child restraint system, e.g. cushions. The entire base of the child restraint system must
always rest on the seat cushion of the front-
passenger seat. The backrest of the forward-
36Occupant safety
>> Safety.
Page 39 of 214
facing child restraint system must lie as flat
as possible against the backrest of the front-
passenger seat.
The child restraint system must not touch the
roof. Adjust the backrest angle accordingly.
Only then can OCS be guaranteed to function
correctly. Always observe the child restraint
system manufacturer's installation instruc-
tions.
How the occupant classification system
(OCS) operates
0043PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
0044PASSENGER AIR BAG ON indicator lamp
The indicator lamps indicate whether the
front-passenger front air bag is activated or
deactivated.
XTurn the key to position 1or 2in the igni-
tion lock.
The system carries out a self-diagnosis
test.
The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF and PASSENGER
AIR BAG ON indicator lamps must light up
simultaneously for about six seconds.
The indicator lamps then display the status of
the front-passenger front air bag:
RPASSENGER AIRBAG ON lights up: the front-
passenger front airbag is enabled. If, in
the case of an accident, all deployment cri-
teria are met, the front-passenger front
air bag is deployed.
RPASSENGER AIRBAG OFF lights up: the front-
passenger front airbag is disabled. It will then not be deployed in the event of an
accident.
Always observe the PASSENGER AIR BAG ON and
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamps when
the front-passenger seat is occupied. Make
sure that the status of the front-passenger front air bag is correct before and during a
journey.
GWARNING
If the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator
lamp is lit, the front-passenger front air
bag is disabled. It will not be deployed in
the event of an accident and cannot perform
its intended protective function. A person
in the front-passenger seat could then, for
example, come into contact with the vehi-
cle's interior, especially if the person is
sitting too close to the dashboard. This
poses an increased risk of injury or even
fatal injury.
When the front-passenger seat is occupied, always ensure that:
Rthe classification of the person in the
front-passenger seat is correct and the
front-passenger front air bag is enabledor disabled in accordance with the per-
son in the front-passenger seat
Rthe front-passenger seat has been movedback as far back as possible.
Rthe person is seated correctly.
Make sure, both before and during the jour-
ney, that the status of the front-passenger
front air bag is correct.
GWARNING
If you secure a child in a rearward-facing
child restraint system on the front-
passenger seat and the PASSENGER AIR BAG
ON indicator lamp is lit up, the front-
passenger front air bag may deploy in an
accident. The child could be struck by the
air bag. This poses an increased risk of
injury or even fatal injury.
Make sure that the front-passenger front
air bag has been disabled. The PASSENGER
AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp must be lit.
If the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
remains off and/or the PASSENGER AIR BAG ON
indicator lamp is lit, do not fit a rearward-
facing child restraint system to the front-
passenger seat. For more information, see
Occupant safety37

Problems with the side windows
GWARNING
If you close a side window again immediately after it has been blocked or reset, the side
window closes with increased or maximum force. The reversing feature is then not active.
Parts of the body could be trapped in the closing area in the process. This poses an increased
risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Make sure that no parts of the body are in the closing area. To stop the closing process,
release the switch or push the switch again to reopen the side window.
ProblemPossible causes/consequences and 0050Solutions
A side window cannot be
closed because it is
blocked by objects, e.g.
leaves in the window
guide.XRemove the objects.
XClose the side window.
A side window cannot be
closed and you cannot
see the cause.If a side window is obstructed during closing and reopens again
slightly:
XImmediately after the window blocks, pull the corresponding
switch again until the side window has closed.
The side window is closed with increased force.
If a side window is obstructed again during closing and reopens
again slightly:
XImmediately after the window blocks, pull the corresponding
switch again until the side window has closed.
The side window is closed without the anti-entrapment feature.
Operating the roller sunblind for the
panoramic roofThe roller sunblind shields the vehicle inte-
rior from sunlight.
XTo open: press the roller sunblind up by the
outer edge of recess 0043and slide it back-
wards.

Prevent water from entering the vehicle inte-
rior or the engine compartment. If you must
drive through standing water, bear in mind
that:
Rthe water level should not exceed the lower
edge of the vehicle body in still water
Ryou should drive no faster than at walking
pace.
Winter driving
GWARNING
If you shift down on a slippery road surface
in an attempt to increase the engine's
braking effect, the drive wheels could lose
their grip. There is an increased danger of
skidding and accidents.
Do not shift down for additional engine
braking on a slippery road surface.
GDANGER
If the exhaust pipe is blocked or adequate
ventilation is not possible, poisonous
gases such as carbon monoxide (CO) may
enter the vehicle. This is the case, e.g. if
the vehicle becomes trapped in snow. There
is a risk of fatal injury.
If you have to leave the engine running,
keep the exhaust pipe and the area around
the vehicle free of snow. To ensure an ade- quate supply of fresh air, open a window on
the side of the vehicle that is not facing
into the wind.
Have your vehicle winterproofed at a quali-
fied specialist workshop at the onset of win-
ter.
Drive particularly carefully on slippery road
surfaces. Avoid sudden acceleration, steer-
ing and braking maneuvers. Do not use cruise
control.
If the vehicle threatens to skid or cannot be
stopped when moving at low speed:
XTry to bring the vehicle under control
using corrective steering.
XVehicles with automatic transmission:
shift the transmission to position N.The outside temperature indicator is not
designed to serve as an ice-warning device
and is therefore unsuitable for that purpose.
Changes in the outside temperature are dis-
played after a short delay.
Indicated temperatures just above the freez-
ing point do not guarantee that the road sur-
face is free of ice. The road may still be icy,
especially in wooded areas or on bridges.
You should pay special attention to road con-
ditions when temperatures are around freez-
ing point.
For more information on driving with snow
chains, see (
Ypage 179).
For more information on driving with summer
tires, see (
Ypage 179).
Observe the notes in the "Winter operation"
section (
Ypage 179).
Driving systems
Cruise control
General notes
Cruise control maintains a constant road
speed for you. Cruise control does not brake
the vehicle automatically. Only the engine's
braking effect is available. In order to
reduce speed and maintain distance to other
road users, you need to brake yourself. This
interrupts cruise control.
Use cruise control only if road and traffic
conditions make it appropriate to maintain a steady speed for a prolonged period. You can
use cruise control at speeds above 20 mph
(30 km/h).
Important safety notes
If you fail to adapt your driving style, cruise
control can neither reduce the risk of an
accident nor override the laws of physics.
Cruise control cannot take into account road,
weather or traffic conditions. Cruise control
is only an aid. You are responsible for the
distance to the vehicle in front, for vehicle
speed, for braking in good time and for stay-ing in lane.

Do not use power washers with circular jet
nozzles to clean the vehicle. Have damaged
tires or chassis components replaced
immediately.
!Always maintain a distance of at least
11.8 in (30 cm) between the vehicle and the
power washer nozzle. Information about the
correct distance is available from the
equipment manufacturer.
Move the power washer nozzle around when
cleaning your vehicle.
Do not aim directly at any of the following:
Rtires
Rdoor gaps, roof gaps, joints, etc.
Relectrical components
Rbattery
Rconnectors
Rlights
Rseals
Rtrim
Rventilation slots
Damaged seals or electrical components
can lead to leaks or failures.
Cleaning the paintwork
!Do not affix:
Rstickers
Rfilms
Rmagnetic plates or similar items
to painted surfaces. You could otherwise
damage the paintwork.
XRemove dirt immediately, where possible,
while avoiding rubbing too hard.
XSoak insect remains with insect remover
and rinse off the treated areas afterwards.
XSoak bird droppings with water and rinse
off the treated areas afterwards.
XRemove coolant, brake fluid, tree resin,
oils, fuels and greases by rubbing gently
with a cloth soaked in petroleum ether or
lighter fluid.
XUse tar remover to remove tar stains.
XUse silicone remover to remove wax.
XUse a suitable touch-up stick, e.g. MB
Touch-Up Stick, to repair slight damage to
the paintwork quickly and provisionally. The following cannot always be completely
repaired:
Rscratches
Rcorrosive deposits
Rareas affected by corrosion
Rdamage caused by inadequate care
In such cases, visit a qualified specialist
workshop.
When water no longer forms beads on the paint surface, use the care product Paint Care,
which has been approved by smart. This is the
case approximately every three to five
months, depending on the climate conditions
and the care product used.
If the dirt has penetrated the paint surface or
if the paintwork has become dull, then the
paintwork should be cleaned. Use the care
product Paint Care, which has been approved
by smart to clean the paintwork.
Do not use these care products in the sun or on
the hood while the hood is hot.
Matte finish care
!Never polish the vehicle or the light alloy
wheels. Polishing causes the finish to
shine.
!The following may cause the paint to
become shiny and thus reduce the matte
effect:
Rstrong rubbing of the paintwork with
unsuitable materials
Rfrequent use of automatic car washes
Rwashing the vehicle in direct sunlight
!Never use paint cleaner, buffing or pol-
ishing products, or gloss preserver, e.g.
wax. These products are only suitable for
high-gloss surfaces. Their use on vehicles
with matte finish leads to considerable
surface damage (shiny, mottled areas).
Always have paintwork repairs carried out
at a qualified specialist workshop.
!Do not use wash programs with a hot wax
treatment under any circumstances.
Observe these notes if your vehicle has a
clear matte finish. This will help you to avoid
damage to the paintwork due to incorrect
treatment.
These notes also apply to light alloy wheels
with a clear matte finish.
156Care
>> Maintenance and care.
Page 159 of 214
iThe vehicle should preferably be washed
by hand using a soft sponge, car shampoo
and plenty of water.
iUse only insect remover and car shampoo
from the range of approved smart care
products.
Cleaning the panoramic roof
!Only use cleaning agents or cleaning
cloths which are suitable for plastic light
lenses. Unsuitable cleaning agents or
cleaning cloths could scratch or damage
the plastic windows of the panoramic roof.
Do not use cleaning agents which contain
solvents.
XClean the plastic panes of the panoramic
roof using a wet sponge and a mild cleaning
agent, e.g. smart car shampoo, a commer-
cially available glass cleaner or cleaning
cloths.
Cleaning the wheels
GWARNING
The water jet from a circular jet nozzle
(dirt blasters) can cause invisible exte-
rior damage to the tires or chassis compo- nents. Components damaged in this way may
fail unexpectedly. There is a risk of an
accident.
Do not use power washers with circular jet
nozzles to clean the vehicle. Have damaged
tires or chassis components replaced
immediately.
!Do not use acidic wheel cleaning products
to remove brake dust. This could damage
wheel bolts and brake components.
!Do not park the vehicle for an extended
period straight after cleaning it, partic-
ularly after having cleaned the wheels with
wheel cleaner. Wheel cleaners could cause
increased corrosion of the brake discs and
brake pads/linings. For this reason, you
should drive for a few minutes after clean-
ing. Braking heats the brake discs and the
brake pads/linings, thus drying them. The
vehicle can then be parked.
Cleaning the windows
GWARNING
You could become trapped by the wind-
shield wipers if they start moving while
cleaning the windshield or wiper blades.
There is a risk of injury.
Always switch off the windshield wipers
and the ignition before cleaning the wind-
shield or wiper blades.
!Do not use dry cloths, abrasive products,
solvents or cleaning agents containing
solvents to clean the inside of the windows.
Do not touch the insides of the windows with
hard objects, e.g. an ice scraper or ring.
There is otherwise a risk of damaging the
windows.
!Clean the water drainage channels of the
windshield and the rear window at regular
intervals. Deposits such as leaves, petals
and pollen may under certain circumstan-
ces prevent water from draining away. This
can lead to corrosion damage and damage to
electronic components.
XClean the inside and outside of the windows
with a damp cloth and a cleaning agent that
is recommended and approved by smart.
Cleaning wiper blades
GWARNING
You could become trapped by the wind-
shield wipers if they start moving while
cleaning the windshield or wiper blades.
There is a risk of injury.
Always switch off the windshield wipers
and the ignition before cleaning the wind-
shield or wiper blades.
!Do not pull the wiper blade. Otherwise,
the wiper blade could be damaged.
!Do not clean wiper blades too often and do
not rub them too hard. Otherwise, the
graphite coating could be damaged. This
could cause wiper noise.
