seats, always follow the child seat man-
ufacturer’s instructions. Emergency Tensioning Devices (ETDs)
and seat belt force limiters
The seat belts are equipped with Emer-
gency Tensioning Devices and seat belt
force limiters.
Emergency Tensioning Devices are
designed to activate in the following
cases:
R in frontal or rear-end impacts exceed-
ing the system deployment threshold
R if the restraint systems are operational
and functioning correctly
R in collisions with high vehicle decel-
eration/acceleration in the longitudi-
nal direction, e.g. a head-on collision
R on passenger side when the seat is occu-
pied and the seat belt is fastened
R independently of the front air bags
When activated, Emergency Tensioning
Devices remove slack from the seat belts in such a way that the seat belts fit more
snugly against the body. Seat belt force
limiters, when activated, reduce the force
exerted by the seat belts on occupants dur-
ing a crash.
When the emergency tensioning device is
triggered, the SRS indicator lamp 6in
the instrument cluster illuminates, see
“SRS indicator lamp” (Y page 169).G
WARNING
Once they have been triggered, Emergency
Tensioning Devices will no longer function properly and must be replaced. smart rec-
ommends that you visit a qualified work-
shop to have this done. In particular, work
relevant to safety or on safety-related sys-tems must be carried out at a qualified
specialist workshop.
Comply with safety regulations when dis-
posing of Emergency Tensioning Devices. These regulations are available at any
smart center.
The belt force limiter is designed to oper- ate in unison with the front air bag, which
absorbs a portion of the seat belt’s decel-
erating forces, distributing the load over
a larger area.
In the event of a head-on or rear-end col-
lision, the emergency tensioning device is
activated if the vehicle is decelerated or
accelerated sufficiently in the longitudi- nal direction at the start of impact with theignition switched on. Air bags
Air bags can reduce the severity of inju-
ries in serious collisions, e.g. in a head-
on collision or a side impact. G
WARNING
Air bags are designed to reduce the poten- tial of injury in certain frontal impacts
(front air bags and knee bags), or side
impacts (head-thorax air bags, window
curtain air bags and thorax-pelvis air
bags) which may cause significant inju-
ries. However, no system available today
can completely eliminate injuries and
fatalities.
The deployment of the air bags temporarily
releases a small amount of dust from the air
bags. This dust is neither injurious to your health, nor does it indicate a fire in the
vehicle. The dust might cause some tempo-
rary breathing difficulty for people with
asthma or other breathing trouble. To avoid
this, you may wish to get out of the vehicle
as soon as it is safe to do so. If you have any
breathing difficulty but cannot get out of
the vehicle after the air bag inflates, then get fresh air by opening a window or door. G
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury when the front
air bags inflate, it is very important for Occupant safety

Driving safety systems
Introduction
G
WARNING
The following factors increase the risk of
accidents:
R Excessive speed, especially in turns
R Wet and slippery road surfaces
R Following another vehicle too closely
The driving safety systems described in
this section cannot reduce these risks or
prevent the natural laws of physics from
acting on the vehicle.
Always adapt your driving style to the pre- vailing road and weather and traffic con-
ditions and keep a safe distance to other
road users and objects on the street.
i In winter operation, the maximum
effectiveness of the ABS, the hydraulic
brake assistant, and the ESP ®
is only ach-
ieved with winter tires (Y page 146) or
snow chains* as required. Antilock Brake System (ABS)
G
WARNING
Do not pump the brake pedal. Use firm,
steady brake pedal pressure instead. Pump- ing the brake pedal defeats the purpose of
the ABS and significantly reduces braking
effectiveness.
The Antilock BrakeSystem (ABS) regulates
the brake pressure so that the wheels do not lock during braking. This allows you to
maintain the ability to steer your vehicle.
On slippery road surfaces, the ABS will
respond even to light brake pressure.
The ABS indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster (Y page 24) comes on when you
switch on the ignition. It goes out when the drive system is active. Braking At the instant one of the wheels is about to
lock up, a slight pulsation can be felt in the
brake pedal, indicating that the ABS is
regulating the brake pressure.
X Keep firm and steady pressure on the
brake pedal while experiencing the pul-
sation.
Continuous, steady brake pedal pressure
yields the advantages provided by the ABS,
namely braking power and the ability to
steer the vehicle.
A pulsating brake pedal can be an indica-
tion of hazardous road conditions and
functions as a reminder to take extra care
while driving.
Emergency brake maneuver X
Keep continuous full pressure on the
brake pedal. G
WARNING
When the ABS is malfunctioning, the
hydraulic brake assistant and the ESP ®
are
also switched off.
When the ABS is malfunctioning, the wheels may lock during hard braking, reducing
steering capability and extending the
braking distance. G
WARNING
The ABS cannot prevent the natural laws of
physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase braking or steering efficiency beyond that afforded by the condition of the
vehicle brakes and tires or the traction
afforded. The ABS cannot prevent acci-
dents, including those resulting from
excessive speed in turns, following
another vehicle too closely, or hydroplan-
ing. Only a safe, attentive, and skillful
driver can prevent accidents. The capabil- ities of an ABS equipped vehicle must never
be exploited in a reckless or dangerous 46

assistant automatically provides full
brake boost, thereby potentially reducing
the braking distance.
X Apply continuous full braking pressure
until the emergency braking situation is
over.
The ABS will prevent the wheels from
locking.
When you release the brake pedal, the
brakes function again as normal. The
hydraulic brake assistant is then deacti-
vated. G
WARNING
When the hydraulic brake assistant is mal-
functioning, the brake system is still func- tioning normally, but without the addi-
tional brake boost that would normally be
provided during an emergency braking
maneuver. Therefore, the braking distance
may increase. G
WARNING
The hydraulic brake assistant cannot pre-
vent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase braking
efficiency beyond that afforded by the con-
dition of the vehicle brakes and tires or the traction afforded. The hydraulic brake
assistant cannot prevent accidents,
including those resulting from excessive
speed in turns, following another vehicle
too closely, or hydroplaning. Only a safe,
attentive, and skillful driver can prevent
accidents. The capabilities of a hydraulic
brake assistant equipped vehicle must
never be exploited in a reckless or dan-
gerous manner which could jeopardize the
user’s safety or the safety of others. Activating the hazard warning flasher
after an emergency braking maneuver
If you bring the vehicle to a complete stop
by strongly braking at a speed of more than
43 mph (70 km/h), the hazard warning
flasher comes on automatically as soon as the vehicle is at a standstill. The hazard
warning flasher will remain on until it is
switched off using the hazard warning
flasher switch (Y
page 68) or until the
speed of the vehicle has exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h). Acoustic Vehicle Indication*
Vehicles with electric motors develop con-
siderably lower driving noises than vehi-
cles with combustion engines. Therefore
your vehicle in traffic might not be acous-
tically noticed by other road users in cer- tain situations.
In order to avoid this, a built-in sound
generator emits a certain noise (Acoustic
Vehicle Indication) within a speed range
between 0 to 20 mph (30 km/h). Thus, other
road users, especially pedestrians and
bicycle riders can notice your vehicle bet-
ter. Acoustic Vehicle Indication can also
be heard inside of the vehicle.
The volume of Acoustic Vehicle Indication depends on the current engine speed (rpm).The stronger you accelerate, the louder thenoise. At speed of more than 20 mph 30 km/h
the noise is switched off. From this speed
on the natural noises of the vehicle are
sufficient so that other road users can
notice the vehicle on time. Anti-theft systems
Electronic immobilizer
The electronic immobilizer prevents
unauthorized persons from starting your
vehicle.
When leaving the vehicle, always take the
key with you and lock the vehicle. The drive
system can be switched on by anyone with a
key that is left inside the vehicle. 48

WARNING
Make sure absolutely no objects are
obstructing the pedals’ range of motion.
Keep the driver’s footwell clear of all
obstacles. If there are any floormats* or
carpets in the footwell, make sure the ped- als still have sufficient clearance.
During sudden acceleration or braking
maneuvers, the objects could get caught
between or beneath the pedals and restrictyour ability to brake or accelerate. This
could lead to accidents and/or injury. G
WARNING
A vehicle with an electric motor produces
significantly lower noise levels than a
vehicle with a combustion engine. Other
motorists or pedestrians, especially those who are visually or hearing impaired, may
be unable to hear your vehicle while it is in
motion. This is particularly true when
driving at lower speeds and during parking
maneuvers. At all times, it is the respon-
sibility of the driver to be aware of their
surroundings, especially in these low
speed situations. Otherwise other road
users could be seriously or fatally injured.
Vehicles equipped with an Acoustic Vehi-
cle Indication* emit a certain noise. Thus,
your vehicle will be better noticed by other
road users at low speeds (Y page 48).
