WARNING

The seat belts may not perform their intended

protective function if:

they are damaged, modified, extremely

dirty, bleach or dyed

the seat belt buckle is damaged or

extremely dirty

the Emergency Tensioning Devices, belt

anchorages or inertia reels have been modi-

fied

Seat belts may sustain non-visible damage in

an accident, e.g. due to glass splinters. Modi-

fied or damaged seat belts may tear or fail,

e.g. in an accident. Modified Emergency Ten-

sioning Devices could accidentally trigger or

fail to deploy when necessary. This poses an

increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.

Never modify the seat belts, Emergency Ten-

sioning Devices, belt anchorages or inertia

reels. Make sure that the seat belts are

undamaged, not worn out and clean. Follow-

ing an accident, have the seat belts checked

immediately at a qualified specialist work-

shop.

Only use seat belts that have been approved for

your vehicle by Mercedes-Benz.

AMG Performance seat: this seat is designed

for the standard three-point seat belt. If you

install another multi-point seat belt, e.g. sport or

racing se

at b

elts, the restraint system cannot

provide the best level of protection.

WARNING

If you feed seat belts through the opening in

the seat backrest, the seat backrest may be

damaged or may even break in the event of an

accident. This poses an increased risk of

injury or even fatal injury.

Only use the standard three-point seat belt.

Never modify the seat belt system.

Proper use of the seat belts

Pay attention to the safety notes about the seat

belt (

Y page 48).

All vehicle occupants must fasten the seat belt

correctly before setting off. Make sure that all

occupants are wearing their seat belts correctly

for the entire journey.

When fastening the seat belt, make sure that:

The seat belt tongue is inserted into the belt

buckle that belongs to the seat.

The seat belt is tightened across your body.

Avoid wearing bulky clothing, e.g. a winter

coat.

The seat belt is not twisted.

Only then can the forces produced in the

event of an accident be evenly distributed

across the belt.

The shoulder section of the belt must always

be routed across the center of the shoulder.

The shoulder section of the belt should not

come into contact with your neck and must

not be routed under the arm. Where possible,

adjust the seat belt to the appropriate height.

The lap belt must be taut and as low as pos-

sible over your lap.

The lap belt must always pass across your hip

joints and never across your stomach or

abdomen. Pregnant women must take partic-

ular care. If necessary, the lap belt can be

pushed down across the hip joints and pulled

tig

ht u

sing the shoulder section.

The seat belt is not routed over sharp, pointed

or fragile objects.
