vated. The seat belt is now locked. Push
down on child restraint to take up any
slack.
To deactivate, release seat belt buckle and
let seat belt retract completely. To deac-
tivate the special seat belt retractor for
the passenger seat, the passenger seat must be in the most backward position. The seatbelt can again be used in the usual manner. G
WARNING
Never release the seat belt buckle while the vehicle is in motion, since the special seatbelt retractor will be deactivated.
The use of infant or child restraints is
required by law in all 50 states, the Dis-
trict of Columbia, the U.S. territories, and
all Canadian provinces and territories.
Infants and small children should be seated in an appropriate infant or child restraint
system properly secured in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions for
the child restraint, that complies with U.S. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards 213and 225 and Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards 213, 213.1 and 213.2.
A statement by the child restraint manu-
facturer of compliance with these stand-
ards can be found on the instruction label
on the restraint and in the instruction
manual provided with the restraint.
When using any infant restraint, toddler
restraint, or booster seat be sure to care-
fully read and follow all manufacturer’s
instructions for installation and use.
Please read and observe warning labels
affixed to the inside of the vehicle and to
infant or child restraints. G
WARNING
Children 12 years old and under must be
seated and properly secured in an appro-
priately sized infant restraint, toddler
restraint, or booster seat recommended for the size and weight of the child. The infant or child restraint must be prop-
erly secured with the vehicle’s seat belt
fully in accordance with the child seat
manufacturer’s instructions.
Occupants, especially children, should
never place their bodies or lean their
heads in the area of the door where the
head-thorax air bags (cabriolet), window
curtain air bags (coupé) and thorax-pelvis
air bags (coupé) inflates. This could result in serious injuries or death should the
head-thorax air bags (cabriolet), window
curtain air bags (coupé) and thorax-pelvis
air bags (coupé) be triggered. Always sit as
upright as possible, properly use the seat
belt and use an appropriately sized infant
restraint, toddler restraint, or booster
seat recommended for the size and weight of
the child.
Children can be killed or seriously injured by an inflating air bag. Note the following
important information when circumstances
require you to place a child in the
passenger seat:
R Your vehicle is equipped with air bag
technology designed to turn off the
passenger front air bag in your vehicle
when the Occupant Classification System
senses the weight of a typical
12‑month‑old child or less along with the
weight of an appropriate child restraint
on the passenger seat.
R A child in a rear-facing child restraint
on the passenger seat may be seriously
injured or even killed if the passenger
front air bag inflates in a collision.
R If you install a rear-facing child
restraint on the passenger seat, make
sure the 40indicator lamp
is illuminated, indicating that the
passenger front air bag is deactivated.
Should the 40indicator
lamp not illuminate or go out while the
restraint is installed, please check
installation. Periodically check the
40indicator lamp while 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
