Seat belts may sustain non-visible damage in

an accident, e.g. due to glass splinters. Modi-

fied or damaged seat belts may tear or fail,

e.g. in an accident. Modified Emergency Ten-

sioning 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 or 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

Pay attention to the safety notes about the seat

belt (

Y page 47).

All vehicle occupants must fasten the seat belt

correctly before setting off. Make sure that all

occupants are wearing their seat belts correctly

for the entire journey.

When fastening the seat belt, make sure that:

The seat belt tongue is inserted into the belt

buckle that belongs to the seat.

The seat belt is tightened across your body.

Avoid wearing bulky clothing, e.g. a winter

coat.

The seat belt is not twisted.

Only then can the forces produced in the

event of an accident be evenly distributed

across the belt.

The shoulder section of the belt must always

be routed across the center of the shoulder.

The shoulder section of the belt should not

come into contact with your neck and must

not be routed under the arm. Where possible,

adjust the seat belt to the appropriate height.

The lap belt must be taut and as low as pos-

sible over your lap.

The lap belt must always pass across your hip

joints and never across your stomach or

abdomen. Pregnant women must take partic-

ular care. If necessary, the lap belt can be

pushed down across the hip joints and pulled

tight using the shoulder section.

The seat belt is not routed over sharp, pointed

or fragile objects.

If these item

s a

re on or in your clothing, e.g.

eyeglasses, pens, keys, etc., stow these items

in a more suitable location.

Only one person should use each seat belt at

any one time.

On no account should babies or children

travel sitting on the lap of another vehicle

occupant. During an accident, they could be

crushed between the occupant and seat belt.

Objects are not secured with a seat belt if the

seat belt is being used by one of the vehicle’s

occupants.

Also make sure that there are no objects, e.g.

cushions, between the occupant and the seat.

Seat belts are solely intended for the protection

and restraint of the vehicle occupants. To

secure objects, luggage or loads, always

observe the "Loading guidelines" (

Y page 325).

Rear beltbags

Observe the "Important safety notes" sec-

tion (

Y page 50).

Depending on the vehicle's equipment, the

outer rear seat belts are equipped with a belt

bag. This can be seen from the BELTBAG iden-

tification on the rear seat belt.

WARNING

In an accident, the belt bag may damage a

non-approved child restraint system. As a

result, the child restraint system may not be

able to provide the intended level of protec-

tion. This poses an increased risk of injury or

even fatal injury.

For this reason, a child restraint system with

an integrated seat belt should always be

installed using LATCH-type (ISOFIX). In a vehi-

cle with optional belt bags for the rear seats,

you should only ever use a booster seat with

integrated backrest that has been tested and

approved by Mercedes-Benz in conjunction

with a belt bag. Never use a seat belt equipped

with a belt bag to secure a forward or rear-

ward-facing child restraint system or a boos-

ter seat that has not been approved. For infor-

mation on approved child restraint systems,
