The SRS system conducts a selftest when the
ignition is switched on and in regular inter
vals while the engine is running. This facili
tates detection of malfunctions. The SRS
indicator lamp= in the instrument cluster
comes on when the ignition is switched on and
goes out after approximately four seconds.
The SRS components are in operational readi
ness if the SRS indicator lamp= is not lit
when the engine is running.
A malfunction in the system has been detected
if the SRS indicator lamp=:
• fails to go out after approximately
4 seconds after the ignition was switched
on
•does not come on at all
• comes on after the engine was started or
while driving
G
Warning!
Modifications to or work improperly con
ducted on restraint systems (such as seat
belts and anchors, Emergency Tension
ing Devices, seat belt force limiters or
air bags) or their wiring, as well as tam
pering with interconnected electronic
systems, can lead to the restraint sys
tems no longer functioning as intended.
Air bags or Emergency Tensioning Devic
es, for example, could deploy inadvert
ently or fail to deploy in accidents in
which they otherwise should deploy
(although the deceleration threshold for
air bag deployment is exceeded). There
fore, never modify the restraint systems.
Do not tamper with electronic compo
nents or their software.
G
Warning!
In the event that the SRS indicator
lamp= comes on while driving or does
not come on at all, the SRS selfcheck has
detected a malfunction. For your safety,
we strongly recommend that you immedi
ately but safely pull the vehicle off of the
roadway and stop driving. Contact an au
thorized smart center immediately to
have the system checked; otherwise the
SRS may not deploy when needed in an ac
cident, which could result in serious or
fatal injury, or it might deploy unexpect
edly and unnecessarily which could also
result in injury.

>> Safety. When the emergency tensioning device is
triggered, the SRS indicator lamp= in the
instrument cluster illuminates, see "SRS indi
cator lamp" (
page 246).The belt force limiter is designed to operate
in unison with the front air bag, which absorbs
a portion of the seat belt's decelerating forc
es, distributing the load over a larger area.
In the event of a headon or rearend colli
sion, the emergency tensioning device is ac
tivated if the vehicle is decelerated or
accelerated sufficiently in the longitudinal di
rection at the start of impact with the ignition
switched on.
Air bagsAir bags can reduce the severity of injuries in
serious collisions, e.g. in a headon collision
or a side impact.
G
Warning!
Once they have been triggered, Emer
gency Tensioning Devices will no longer
function properly and must be replaced.
smart recommends that you visit a quali
fied workshop to have this done. In par
ticular, work relevant to safety or on
safetyrelated systems must be carried
out at a qualified specialist workshop.
Comply with safety regulations when
disposing of Emergency Tensioning De
vices. These regulations are available at
any smart center.
G
Warning!
Air bags are designed to reduce the
potential of injury in certain frontal
impacts (front air bags), or side impacts
(headthorax air bags) which may cause
significant injuries. However, no system
available today can completely eliminate
injuries and fatalities.

Occupant safety

>> Safety. How the air bag operates
The air bag is inflated in a matter of
milliseconds. If the air bag is triggered, the
SRS indicator lamp in the instrument cluster
illuminates.
!
If the air bags are activated, you will hear
a loud noise and some dust may be generated.
The explosion fundamentally represents no
risk to your hearing.
The inflated air bag slows down and reduces
the movement of the occupant. When the
occupant makes contact with the air bag, hot
gas flows out of the inflated front air bags and
headthorax air bags. This reduces the load
on the occupant’s head and upper body. These
air bags are consequently deflated after the
accident.Headthorax air bags
G
Warning!
There is a possibility for a headthorax
air bag related injury if occupants, espe
cially children, are not properly seated
or restrained when next to a headthorax
air bag which needs to deploy rapidly in a
side impact in order to do its job.
To help avoid the possibility of injury,
please follow these guidelines:
(1) Occupants, especially children,
should never place their bodies or
lean their heads in the area of the
door where the headthorax air bag
inflates. This could result in serious
injuries or death should the head
thorax air bag be deployed.
(2) Always sit as upright as possible,
properly use the seat belts, and for all
children 12 years old or under, use an
appropriately sized infant restraint,
toddler restraint, or booster seat
recommended for the size and weight
of the child.
(3) Always wear seat belts properly.G
Warning!
Only use seat covers which have been
tested and approved by smart for your
vehicle model. Using other seat covers
may interfere with or prevent the deploy
ment of the headthorax air bags.
Contact an authorized smart center for
availability.
