When fitting a child restraint system, be sure
to observe the manufacturer's installation
instructions and the instructions for correct
use of the child restraint system.GWARNING
The child restraint system cannot perform its
protective function if it is not correctly fitted
to a suitable vehicle seat. The child cannot be
restrained 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.
XInstall the ISOFIX child restraint system.
Comply with the child restrain system man-
ufacturer'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. Securing rings : for two ISO-
FIX child restraint systems are fitted on the
left and right of the rear seats.
Top Tether
Important safety notes
GWARNING
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
