pelvis side 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 thorax-pelvis
side air bag inflates. This could
result in serious injuries or
death should the thorax-pelvis
side air bag be deployed.
(2) Always sit as upright as possi- ble, 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 rec-
ommended 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. A seat cover must have a deploymentcontrol seam for the thorax-pelvis side air
bag. Using other seat covers may interfere
with or prevent the deployment of the
thorax-pelvis side air bags. Contact an
authorized electric drive smart center for
availability.
Window curtain air bags
Window curtain air bags are designed to
provide increased protection for the head, but not the chest or arms.
Window curtain air bags are deployed
R on the impacted side of the vehicle
R in instances with a high rate of lateral
vehicle deceleration or acceleration
R independently of the front air bags R
regardless of whether the passenger seat
is occupied
R in a rollover if the system determines
that air bag deployment can offer addi-
tional protection to that provided by the
seat belt.
The window curtain air bags are integrated
into the inner side of the roof frame. They
run above the doors from the A-pillar to the B-pillar. :
Window curtain air bags
Thorax-pelvis side air bags
Thorax-pelvis side air bags are designed
to provide increased protection for the
thorax and pelvis, but not the arms.
Thorax-pelvis side air bags are deployed
R on the impacted side of the vehicle
R in instances with a high rate of lateral
vehicle deceleration or acceleration
R independently of the front air bags
R regardless of whether the seat belt on the
impacted side of the vehicle is in use
R independently of the ETDs.
Thorax-pelvis side air bags will generally not deploy in a rollover.
The thorax-pelvis side air bags will
deploy, however, if the system detects
R a high rate of lateral vehicle decelera-
tion or acceleration, and
R that air bag deployment can offer addi-
tional protection to that provided by the
seat belt. 38

When loading, make sure no sharp objects
come into contact with the soft top or the
rear window.
Do not place any evenly distributed loads with a weight of more than 165 lbs (75 kg)
on the rear soft top when folded down.
Make sure the high-mounted brake lamp
is not concealed.
! Do not block the soft top system’s lock-
ing apertures.
Only place the side rails in the desig-
nated storage space of the tailgate.
! Do not sit on the folded-down rear soft
top.
Do not fold down the rear soft top at tem-
peratures below 14¦ (-10¥).
Do not place any pointed, sharp-edged,
hot (above 176¦ [80¥]), incandescent or
burning objects on the soft top’s lining.
Do not apply wax to the soft top fabric and select only wax-free washing products
when using an automatic car wash.
Only drive with the retaining clips
closed, as exhaust fumes could otherwise
reach the vehicle’s interior.
! Please keep in mind that weather con-
ditions can sometimes change rapidly.
Make sure to close the retractable soft
top and the rear soft top when leaving the
vehicle. If water enters the vehicle inte- rior, vehicle electronics could be dam-
aged which is not covered by the smart
Limited Warranty. Opening and closing the retractable
soft top
You can open and close the retractable soft
top when the vehicle is either stationary or in motion. G
WARNING
Never operate the retractable soft top if
there is the possibility of anyone being harmed by the opening or closing proce-
dure.
G
WARNING
The retractable soft top is made out of fab- ric. In the event of an accident, the fabric
may tear. This may result in an opening in
the roof.
In a vehicle rollover, occupants not wear-
ing their seat belts or not wearing them
properly may be thrown out of the opening.
Such an opening also presents a potential
for injury for occupants wearing their seat
belts properly as entire body parts or por- tions of them may protrude from the
passenger compartment. G
WARNING
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the key from the starter switch, take it with
you, and lock the vehicle. Do not leave chil- dren unattended in the vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. A child’s
unsupervised access to a vehicle could
result in an accident and/or serious per-
sonal injury.
! To avoid damaging the seals, do not
transport any objects with sharp edges
which can stick out of the retractable
soft top.
Do not open the retractable soft top if
there is snow or ice on the roof, as this
could result in malfunctions.
If you cannot open or close the retracta-
ble soft top due to a malfunction contact
Roadside Assistance or an authorized
electric drive smart center.
i To avoid draining the battery, leave the
drive system running when opening and
closing the retractable soft top.
Opening from outside You can open the retractable soft top com-
pletely with the key. Soft top system (cabriolet only)

WARNING
Transport heavy or hard objects in the
cargo compartment, not in the passenger
compartment.
Always fasten items being carried as
securely as possible using fastening mate- rials appropriate for the weight and size of
the load.
In an accident, during hard braking or sud-
den maneuvers, loose items may be thrown
around inside the vehicle, causing injury
to vehicle occupants. G
WARNING
To help avoid personal injury during a col- lision or sudden maneuver, exercise care
when storing objects in the vehicle. Put
luggage or cargo in the cargo compartment if possible. Do not pile luggage or cargo
higher than the seat backrests.
Keep compartment lids closed. This will
help to prevent stored objects from being
thrown about and injuring vehicle occu-
pants during
R braking
R vehicle maneuvers
R an accident G
WARNING
No racks or loads may be secured to the roof of the vehicle, as
R the panorama roof* may be damaged, thus
injuring persons
R this can have a substantial adverse
effect on the driving dynamics of the
vehicle, thus causing accidents
R the rack and/or the load could detach and
through this cause an accident or other
people could be injured by the load and/
or rack that has fallen off G
WARNING
Do not store any flammable substances
inside the vehicle that could ignite and
start a fire. G
WARNING
The manufacturer has not approved your
vehicle for towing a trailer. A trailer can
permanently impair driving safety.
The gross vehicle weight which is the
weight of the vehicle including tools,
installed accessories, passengers, and
luggage/cargo must never exceed the load
limit and the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR) for your vehicle as specified on the placard located on the driver’s door B‑pil-
lar (Y page 214). In addition, the load must
be distributed in such a way so that the
weight on each axle never exceeds the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) for the front and
rear axle. The GVWR and GAWR for your vehi-
cle are indicated on the certification 108

label which can be found on the driver’s
door B‑pillar.
For more information, see “Loading the
vehicle” (Y page 133).
The handling characteristics of a fully
loaded vehicle depend greatly on the load
distribution. It is therefore recommended
to load the vehicle with the heaviest items being placed towards the front of the vehi-cle.
Please pay attention to and comply with thefollowing instructions when loading the
vehicle and transporting cargo:
R Always place items being carried
against seat backrests, and fasten them
as securely as possible.
R The heaviest portion of the cargo should
always be kept as low as possible against
seat backrests.
R Do not stack loads higher than the top
edge of the head restraints.
R Make sure no luggage/cargo items can get
above or next to the driver’s and/or
passenger seat into the passenger com-
partment.
R Make sure luggage/cargo is properly
secured.
R Always use, if so equipped, cargo net*
when transporting cargo.
Do not carry any unnecessary weight in the
vehicle. This increases vehicle weight,
which results in increased energy con-
sumption. Useful features
