For more information about types of accidents,
see "Overview of deployment situations"
(/ page 50).
The activation thresholds for the components of
the restraint system are determined based on the
evaluation of the sensor values measured at vari-
ous points in the vehicle. This process is pre-emp-
tive in nature. The triggering/deployment of the
components of the restraint system must take
place in good time at the start of the collision.
Factors which can only be seen and measured
aer a collision has occurred cannot play a deci-
sive role in airbag deployment. Nor do they pro-
vide an indication of airbag deployment.
The vehicle may be deformed signicantly without
an airbag being deployed. This is the case if only
parts which are relatively easily deformed are
aected and the rate of vehicle deceleration is
not high. Conversely, an airbag may be deployed
even though the vehicle suers only minor defor-
mation. If very rigid vehicle parts such as longitu-
dinal members are hit, this may result in su-
ciently high levels of vehicle deceleration.
Depending on the apparent type of accident and
the detected deployment situation, seat belt ten-
sioners and/or airbags supplement the protection
oered by a correctly worn seat belt.
When enabled, an airbag can provide additional
protection for the respective vehicle occupant.
Potential protection provided by each airbag:
RKnee airbag: thigh, knee and lower leg
RDriver's airbag, front passenger airbag: head
and ribcage
RWindow airbag: head
RSide airbag: ribcage and pelvis
However, no system available today can com-
pletely eliminate injuries and fatalities in every
accident situation. In particular, the seat belt and
airbag generally do not protect against objects
penetrating the vehicle from the outside. It is also
not possible to completely rule out the risk of
injury caused by the airbag deploying.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you have the
vehicle towed to a qualied specialist workshop
aer an accident. Take this into account, particu-
larly if a seat belt tensioner is triggered or an air-
bag deployed.
If the seat belt tensioners are triggered or an air-
bag is deployed, you will hear a bang, and a small
amount of powder may also be released:
RThe bang will not generally aect your hearing.
RIn general, the powder released is not hazard-
ous to health but may cause short-term
breathing diculties to persons suering from
asthma or other pulmonary conditions.
Provided it is safe to do so, leave the vehicle
immediately or open the window in order to
prevent breathing diculties.
Information on the limited protection provided by
the restraint system
Risk due to the incorrect behaviour of vehicle
occupants
Every vehicle occupant must make sure of the fol-
lowing in particular:
RThey observe the information on the correct
seat position (/ page 41).
