When installing a child restraint system, be
sure to observe the manufacturer's installa-
tion instructions and the instructions for cor- rect use of the child restraint system. G
WARNING
The child restraint system cannot perform its protective function if it is not correctly fitted
to a suitable vehicle seat. The child cannot berestrained in the event of an accident, heavy
braking or sudden changes of direction. The
child could be seriously or even fatally injured.
For this reason, when securing a child
restraint system, always observe the manu-
facturer's installation instructions and the
correct use of the child restraint system.
For safety reasons, on the rear seats use only child restraint systems with an ISOFIX child
seat securing system which have been tested
and approved for Mercedes-Benz vehicles.
An incorrectly fitted child restraint system
could come loose and seriously or even fatally injure the child or other vehicle occupants.
When fitting the child restraint system, always
make sure that it is engaged correctly in the
ISOFIX securing rings on both sides.
! When fitting the ISOFIX child restraint
system, make sure that the seat belt for the
centre seat does not get trapped. Other-
wise, the seat belt could be damaged. X
Install the ISOFIX child restraint system on
both ISOFIX securing rings :. Comply with
the child restraint system manufacturer's
instructions when installing the ISOFIX
child restraint system. ISOFIX is a standardised securing system for
specially designed child restraint systems on
the rear seats. ISOFIX securing rings :for
two ISOFIX child restraint systems are fitted
on the left and right of the rear seats.
Top Tether Important safety notes
G
WARNING
Always engage the rear seat backrests in an
upright position before installing the Top
Tether belt. Push and pull the rear seat backr- ests to check whether they are engaged cor-
rectly. The rear seat backrest may fold down if
it is not engaged correctly. The child restraint
system is then no longer supported correctly
or held in position and can no longer perform
its intended function. This can cause serious
or even fatal injuries. Example: Top Tether belt with one belt strap
Top Tether provides an additional connection
between the ISOFIX child restraint system
secured with ISOFIX and the rear seat. It Children in the vehicle

To avoid damage to the seats and the seat
heating, observe the following information:
R do not spill any liquids on the seats. If
liquid is spilled on the seats, dry them as soon as possible.
R if the seat covers are damp or wet, do not
switch on the seat heating. The seat
heating should also not be used to dry
the seats.
R clean the seat covers as recommended;
see the "Interior care" section.
R do not transport heavy loads on the
seats. Do not place sharp objects on the seat cushions, e.g. knives, nails or tools.
The seats should only be occupied by
passengers, if possible.
R when the seat heating is in operation, do
not cover the seats with insulating mate- rials, e.g. blankets, coats, bags, seat cov-
ers, child seats or booster seats.
! Make sure that there are no objects in the
footwell under or behind the seats when
moving the seats back. There is a risk that
the seats and/or the objects could be dam-
aged.
