The seat belt system comprises:

Seat belts

Emergency Tensioning Devices for the front

seat belts and the outer seat belts in the rear

Seat belt force limiters for the front seat belts

and the outer seat belts in the rear

If the seat belt is pulled by the seat belt extender

quickly or with a jerky movement, the belt

retractor locks. The belt strap cannot be extrac-

ted any further.

The Emergency Tensioning Device tightens the

seat belt in an accident, pulling the belt close

against the body. However it does not pull the

vehicle occupant back in the direction of the

backrest.

The Emergency Tensioning Device does not cor-

rect an incorrect seat position or the routing of

an incorrectly fastened seat belt.

When triggered, a seat belt force limiter helps to

reduce the force exerted by the seat belt on the

vehicle occupant.

The seat belt force limiters for the front seats are

synchronized with the front air bags, which

absorb part of the deceleration force. This can

reduce the force exerted on the vehicle occu-

pants during an accident.

If the front-passenger seat is not occupied,

do not engage the seat belt tongue in the

buckle on the front-passenger seat. Other-

wise, in the event of an accident, the Emer-

gency Tensioning Device and front-passenger

front air bag may be triggered and would need

to be replaced.

Important safety notes

The use of seat belts and child restraint systems

is required by law in:

all 50 states

the U.S. territories

the District of Columbia

all Canadian provinces

Even where this is not required by law, all vehicle

occupants should correctly fasten their seat

belts before starting the journey.

WARNING

If the seat belt is incorrectly fastened, it can-

not protect as intended. Furthermore, an

incorrectly fastened seat belt can cause addi-

tional injury, for example, in an accident, dur-

ing braking or when abruptly changing direc-

tion. This poses an increased risk of injury or

even fatal injury.

Make sure that all vehicle occupants are

seated properly with a correctly fastened seat

belt.

WARNING

The seat belt does not offer the intended level

of protection if you have not moved the back-

rest to an almost vertical position. When brak-

ing or in the event of an accident, you could

slide underneath the seat belt and sustain

abdomen or neck injuries, for example. This

poses an increased risk of injury or even fatal

injury.

Adjust the seat properly before beginning

your journey. Always ensure that the backrest

is in an almost vertical position and that the

shoulder section of your seat belt is routed

across the center of your shoulder.

WARNING

Persons under 5 ft (1.50 m) in height cannot

fasten the seat belt correctly without an addi-

tional suitable restraint system. If the seat

belt is incorrectly fastened, it cannot protect

as intended. Furthermore, an incorrectly fas-

tened seat belt can cause additional injury, for

example, in an accident, during braking or an

abrupt change of direction. This poses an

increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.

For this reason, always secure persons under

5 ft (1.50 m) in height in suitable restraint

systems.

If a child younger than twelve years old and

under 5 ft (1.50 m) in height is traveling in the

vehicle:

always secure the child in a child restraint

system suitable for this Mercedes-Benz vehi-

cle. The child restraint system must be appro-

priate to the age, weight and size of the child

always observe the instructions and safety

notes on "Children in the vehicle"
