take spre-e mptive measures to
protect you in certain hazardous situations.
PRE-SAFE ®
intervenes:
R in emergency braking situations, e.g. if the
BA SB rake Assist System is activate dorthe
BA SP LUS Brak eAssist System intervenes
powerfully
R if the radar sensor system detects an immi-
nen tdanger of collision in certain situa-
tion s(on vehicles with DI STRONIC PLUS)
R in critical situatio nsinvolvin gdriving
dynamics, e.g .ifthe vehicle oversteers or
understeers significantly due to physical
limits being exceeded or if the vehicle
swerves to avoid an obstacle at aspeed of
over 14 0km/h.
PRE-SAFE ®
takes th efollowin gmeasures
dependin gonthe hazardou ssituation detec-
ted:
R the fron tseat belts are pre- tensio ned.
R vehicles with memory fun ctions: under
acciden tconditions, it adjusts the front-
passenger seat if it is in an unfavourable
position.
R vehicles with amulticontour seat: the air
pressure in the seat side cushions and in
the backrest side bolsters is increased.
R if the vehicle skids ,the fron tside windows
and, on the Coupé, the panorama sliding
sunroof, are closed so that only asmall gap
remains.
If th ehazardous situation passe swithout
resulting in an accident ,PRE-SAFE ®
slackens
the belt pretensioning. The air pressure in the
side bols terson the multicontour seat is redu
ceda gain. All settings made by PRE-
SAFE ®
can the nbereversed.
If the seat belts are not released:
X Move the backrest or the seat back slightly
until the belt pretensionin gisreduced.
The locking mechanism releases. G
Warning
Make sure that nobody can becom etrapped
as yo uadjust the seat.
! Make sure that there are no objects in the
footwell or behind the seats when moving
the seat back. There is arisk that the seats
and/or the objects could be damaged.

The NECK -PRO head restraints increase pro-
tection to the driver's and front-passenger's
head and neck .Tot his end, the head
restraint sonthe driver's and front-passenger
seats ar emoved forwards and upwards in the
even tofa rear-end collision of acertain

ry
Head restraint cove rsprevent the NECK-PRO
head restraint sfrom triggering correctly .Con-
sequently, the NECK-PRO head restraints
cannot provide the intended level of protec-
tion .Don ot use head restraint covers.
If the NECK-PRO head restraints have been
triggered in an accident, you must reset the
NECK-PRO head restraints on the driver’s and
front-passenger seat (Y page 40). Other-
wise, the additional protection will not be
available in the even tofanother rear-end col-
lis ion. You can recognise whe nNECK-PRO

fied specialist workshop, e.g. aMercedes-
Ben zService Cent re,followin garear-en dcol-
lision.
i Resetting the NECK -PRO head restraints
requires alot of strength. If you have diffi-
culty resettin gthe NECK -PRO head
restraints, have this work carried out at a
qualified specialist workshop, e.g. a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre. Example: Coupé
X
Tilt the top of the NECK-PRO head restraint
cushio nforwards in the direction of
arrow :.
X Push the NECK -PRO head restraint cushion
down as far as it will go in the direction of
arrow ;.
X Firmly push the NECK-PRO head restraint

X Repeat this procedure for the second
NECK -PRO head restraint. Seat belts
Important safet ynotes Seat belts are the most effective means of
restrainin gthe movemen tofvehicle occu-
pant sint he even tofanaccide nt.T his reduce
sthe risk of vehicle occupants coming
int oc ontac twith parts of the vehicle interior. G
Risk of injury
As eat belt which is not worn cor rectly, or
which has not bee nengaged in the sea tbelt
buckle cor rectly, cannot perform its intended
prote ctive function .Under certain circum-
stances, this could cause severe or even fatal
injuries in the event of an accident.
Make sure that all occupants –inparticular,
pregnan twome n–w ear their seat belt cor-
rectly at all times.
R The seat belt must fit snugly on your body
and must no tbetwisted. Therefore, you
should avoid wearing bulky clothin g(e.g. a
winter coat) .The shoulder belt section
must be routed across the cen treofy our
shoulder –onnoaccount acros syour neck
or under your arm –and pulled tight against
your uppe rbody. The lap belt must always
pass across your lap as low down as possi-
ble, i.e. over your hip join ts–n ot across
your abdomen. If necessary ,push down the
belt strap slightly and then retighten it in
the roll-up direction.
R Do not route the belt strap across sharp
edge sorfragil eobjects, especially if these
are located on or in your clothing, e.g. spec-
tacles, pens, keys, etc. The seat belt strap
could be damaged and tear in an accident,
and you or other vehicl eoccupants could
be injured.
R Onl yone person should use each sea tbelt
at any one time. Children must never travel
sittin gont he lap of other occupan ts.It
would not be possible to restrain the child
in the event of asudden change in direc-
tion, braking or an accident .This could
result in sever eoreven fata linjuries to the
child and othe roccupants.
R Persons les sthan 1.50 mtall cannot wear
the seat belts correctly. For this reason,
secure persons less than 1.50 mtall in spe-
cially designed, suitable restraint systems. 40

Risk of accident
If the incident ligh tfrom headl ampscannot

instance, when the rea rwindow roller sun-
blind is extended, the mirror' sautomatic anti-
dazzle function will not operate.
Incident light could then blind you. This may
distract you from the traffic conditions and,
as aresult, you may cause an accident. In this
case, adjust the rear-view mirror manually.
The rear-view mirror and the exterior mirror
on the driver' sside automatically go into anti-
dazzle mode if the ignition is switched on and
incident light from headlamps strikes the sen-
sor in the rear-view mirror.
