WARNING

The seat belts may not perform their intended

protective function if:

they are damaged, modified, extremely

dirty, bleached 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 be damaged in an accident,

although the damage may not be visible, e.g.

due to splinters of glass. Modified or damaged

seat belts may tear or fail, e.g. in an accident.

Modified Emergency Tensioning 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 and 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.

Proper use of the seat belts

Observe the safety notes on the seat belt

(

Y page 46).

All vehicle occupants must be wearing the seat

belt correctly before beginning the journey. Also

make sure that all vehicle occupants are always

wearing the seat belt correctly while the vehicle

is in motion.

When fastening the seat belt, always make sure

that:

the seat belt buckle tongue is inserted only

into the belt buckle belonging to that seat

the seat belt is pulled tight across your body

Avoid wearing bulky clothing, e.g. a winter

coat.

the seat belt is not twisted

Only then can the forces which occur be dis-

tributed over the area of the belt.

the shoulder section of the belt is routed

across the center of your shoulder

The shoulder section of the seat belt should

not touch your neck or be routed under your

arm or behind your back. Where possible,

adjust the seat belt to the appropriate height.

the lap belt is taut and passes across your lap

as low down as possible

The lap belt must always be routed across

your hip joints and not across your abdomen.

This applies particularly to pregnant women.

If necessary, push the lap belt down to

your

hip joint and pull it tight using the shoulder

section of the belt.

the seat belt is not routed across sharp, poin-

ted or fragile objects

If you have such items located on or in your

clothing, e.g. pens, keys or eyeglasses, store

these in a suitable place.

only one person is using a seat belt

Infants and children must never travel sitting

on the lap of a vehicle occupant. In the event

of an accident, they could be crushed

between the vehicle occupant and seat belt.

objects are never secured with a seat belt if

the seat belt is also being used by one of the

vehicle's occupants

Also ensure that there are never objects

between a person and the seat, e.g. cushions.

Seat belts are only intended to secure and

restrain vehicle occupants. Always observe the

"Loading guidelines" for securing objects, lug-

gage or loads (

Y page 300).
