Depending on the person in the front-

passenger seat, the front-passenger front air

bag must either be disabled or enabled; see

the following points. You must make sure of

this both before and during a journey.

Children in a child restraint system:

whether the front-passenger front air bag is

enabled or deactivated depends on the

installed child restraint system, and the age

and size of the child. Therefore, be sure to

observe the notes on the "Occupant clas-

sification system (OCS)" (Y page 53) and

on "Children in the vehicle" (Y page 61).

There you will also find instructions on

backwards- and forwards-facing child

restraint systems on the front-passenger

seat.

All other persons: depending on the clas-

sification of the person in the front-

passenger seat, the front-passenger front

air bag is enabled or deactivated

(Y page 53). Be sure to observe the notes

on "Seat belts“ (Y page 46) and "Air bags"

(Y page 50). There you can also find infor-

mation on the correct seat position.

Seat belts

Introduction

A correctly fastened seat belt is the most

effective means of restraining the movement

of vehicle occupants in the event of an acci-

dent or overturn. This reduces the risk of

vehicle occupants coming into contact with

parts of the vehicle interior or being thrown

from the vehicle. Furthermore, the seat belt

helps to keep the vehicle occupants in the

best position in relation to the air bag.

The seat belt system consists of:

Seat belts

Emergency Tensioning Devices for the

front seat belts and the outer seat belts in

the rear compartment

Belt force limiters

If the seat belt is pulled quickly or suddenly

from the belt sash guide, the inertia reel

locks. The belt strap cannot be pulled out fur-

ther.

Emergency Tensioning Devices tighten the

seat belts in an accident, pulling them close

against the occupant's body. They do not,

however, pull vehicle occupants back

towards the backrest.

Emergency Tensioning Devices do not cor-

rect an incorrect seat position or incorrectly

worn seat belts.

When activated, the belt force limiters reduce

the force exerted by the seat belt on the vehi-

cle occupants.

The belt force limiters for the front seats are

synchronized with the front air bags, which

absorb part of the deceleration force. This

makes it possible to reduce the forces to

which vehicle occupants are subjected during

an accident.

If the front-passenger seat is unoccupied,

do not insert the belt tongue into the buckle

of the front-passenger seat. This may oth-

erwise lead to the triggering of the Emer-

gency Tensioning Device in the event of an

accident, which will then need to be

replaced.

Important safety notes

The use of seat belts and child restraint sys-

tems 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-
