generally does not constitute a health hazard

and does not indicate that there is a fire in the

vehicle. In order to prevent potential breath-

ing difficulties, you should leave 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.

WARNING

In order to reduce the potential danger of

injuries caused during the deployment of the

front air bags, the driver and front passenger

must always be correctly seated and wear

their seat belts.

For maximum protection in the event of a col-

lision, you must always be in the normal seat

position with your back against the backrest.

Fasten your seat belt and make sure that it is

correctly positioned on your body.

As the air bag inflates with considerable

speed and force, a proper seating position

and correct positioning of the hands on the

steering wheel will help to keep you at a safe

distance from the air bag. Occupants who are

not wearing their seat belt, are not seated

properly or are too close to the air bag can be

seriously injured or killed by an air bag, as it

inflates with great force instantaneously:

sit with the seat belt fastened correctly and

in a position that is as upright as possible

with your back against the backrest.

move the driver's seat as far back as pos-

sible, still permitting proper operation of

vehicle controls. The distance from the cen-

ter of the driver's chest to the center of the

air bag cover on the steering wheel must be

at least 10 inches (25 cm). You should be

able to accomplish this by adjusting the

seat and steering wheel. If you have any

difficulties, please contact an authorized

Mercedes-Benz Center.

do not lean your head or chest close to the

steering wheel or dashboard.

only hold the steering wheel on the outside.

Placing hands and arms inside the rim can

increase the risk and potential severity of

hand/arm injury if the driver front air bag

inflates.

adjust the front-passenger seat as far back

as possible from the dashboard when the

seat is occupied.

occupants, especially children, should

never place their bodies or lean their heads

in the area of the door or the rear side trim

panel where the side impact air bag

inflates. This could result in serious or fatal

injuries should the side impact air bag be

deployed. Always sit as upright as possible,

wear the seat belt properly and use an

appropriately sized infant restraint, toddler

restraint or booster seat recommended for

the size and weight of the child.

Failure to follow these instructions can result

in severe injuries to you or other occupants.

If you sell your vehicle, it is important that you

make the buyer aware of this safety informa-

tion. Be sure to give the buyer this Operator's

Manual.

If the air bags are deployed, you will hear a

bang, and a small amount of powder may also

be released. Only in rare cases will the bang

affect your hearing. The powder that is

released generally does not constitute a

health hazard and does not indicate that there

is a fire in the vehicle. The dust might cause

some temporary breathing difficulty for peo-

ple with asthma or other breathing trouble. To

avoid this, you may wish to get out of the

vehicle or open the windows as soon as it is

safe to do so. The 6 SRS warning lamp

lights up.

The air bags are deployed if the air bag control

unit detects the need for deployment. Only in

the event of such a situation will the air bags

provide their supplemental protection.

If the driver and front passenger do not wear

their seat belts, it is not possible for the air

bags to provide their supplemental protec-

tion.
