When the roll bars are extended, the rear
head restraints also extend automatically.
Oncet he roll bars are extended, you can no
longer lower the rear head restraints. The soft
top can no longer be operated. In this case,
visit the nearest qualified specialist work-
shop. G
WARNING
If the roll bar is malfunctioning, the A
Malfunction Consult workshop message
appears in the multifunction display. The roll
bars will then not be extended in the event of
an accident .This could result in severe or
even fatal injuries to you and other occupants.
In this case, visit aqualified specialist work-
shop immediately and have the roll bar
checked. PRE-SAFE
®
(preventative occupant
protection)
PRE-SAFE ®
takes pre-emptive measures to
protect occupants in certain hazardous sit-
uations.
PRE-SAFE ®
intervenes:
R in emergency braking situations, e.g. if BAS
is activated or for vehicles with DISTRONIC
PLUS, BAS PLUS intervenes powerfully
R if the radar sensor system detects an immi-
nent danger of collision in certain situa-
tions (on vehicles with DISTRONIC PLUS)
R in critical driving situations, e.g. when phys-
ical limits are exceed and the vehicle under-
steers or oversteers severely
PRE-SAFE ®
takes the following measures
depending on the hazardous situation detec-
ted:
R the front seat belts are pre-tensioned.
R vehicles with the memory function: 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 front side windows
and, on the Coupé,t he panorama sliding
sunroof, are closed so that only asmall gap
remains.
If the hazardous situation passes without
resulting in an accident, PRE-SAFE ®
slackens
the belt pretensioning. The air pressure in the
side bolsters on the multicontour seat is
reduced again. All settings made by PRE-
SAFE ®
can then be reversed.
If the seat belts are not released:
X Move the backrest or seat back slightly, but
only when the vehicle is stationary.
The belt pretensionin gisreduced and the
locking mechanism is released. G
WARNING
When adjusting the seat, make sure that
nobody can become trapped.
! Make sure that there are no objectsint he
footwell or behind the seats when moving
the seat back. There is arisk that the seats
and/or the objectsc ould be damaged.
More information about seat-belt adjust-
ment, aconvenience function integrated into
PRE-SAFE ®

adjustment" section (Y page 49). NECK-PRO head restraints
The NECK-PRO head restraints increase pro-
tection to the driver's and front passenger's
head and neck.Tot his end, the NECK-PRO
head restraints on the driver's and front-
passenger seats are moved forwards and
upwards in the event of arear-end collision of
ac ertain severity. This provides better head
support. Occupant safety
