Factors which can only be seenand measured
afteracollision has occurred do not playadeci-
sive roleinthe deployment of an airbag.Nor do
they provide an indication of airbag deploy-
ment.
The vehicle can be deformed considerably,with-
outanair bagbeing deployed. Thisisthe case if
only parts which are relativelyeasilydeformed
are affected and the rate of deceleration is not
high. Conversely,air bags may be deployed even
though the vehicle suffers only minor deforma-
tion. Thisisthe case if, for example,very rigid
vehicle parts such as longitudinalbodymem-
bersare hit, and sufficient deceleration occurs
as aresult.
If the restraint system control unitdetects aside
impact or if the vehicle rolls over,the applicable
components of the restraint system are activa-
ted independently of each other depending on
the apparent typeofaccident.

Important safety notes
Accident statistics show that childrensecured
in the rearseats are safer than childrensecured
in the front-passenger seat. For this reason,
Mercedes-Benz stronglyadvisesthat youinstall
achildrestraint system on arearseat. Children
are generally better protected there.
If achildyoungerthan twelve years old and
under 5ft(1.50 m) in height is traveling in the
vehicle:
R
