WARNING
Child restraint systems or their securing sys-
tems that have been damaged or subjected to a load in an accident cannot perform their
intended protective function. In the event of
an accident, sharp braking or a sudden
change in direction, the child may not be held securely. There is an increased risk of serious
or even fatal injuries.
Immediately replace child restraint systems
that have been damaged or subjected to a
load in an accident. Have the child restraint
securing systems checked in a qualified spe-
cialist workshop before fitting a child restraint
system again.
The securing systems of child restraint systems
are:
R the seat belt system
R the ISOFIX securing rings
R the Top Tether anchorages
If it is absolutely necessary to fit a child restraint
system on the front-passenger seat, always
observe the information on "Child restraint sys- tems on the front-passenger seat"
(Y page 62).
Observe the warning labels in the vehicle inte-
rior and on the child restraint system.
i It is advisable to use Mercedes-Benz care
products to clean child restraint systems rec- ommended by Mercedes-Benz. Information
can be obtained at a qualified specialist work-
shop. ISOFIX child seat securing system
G
WARNING
ISOFIX child restraint systems do not offer
sufficient protective effect for children whose weight is greater than 22 kg who are securedusing the safety belt integrated in the child
restraint system. The child could, for example, not be restrained correctly in the event of an
accident. This poses an increased risk of
injury or even fatal injury.
If the child weighs more than 22 kg, only use
ISOFIX child restraint systems with which the child is also secured with the vehicle seat belt.
Also secure the child restraint system with the Top Tether belt, if available.
When fitting a child restraint system, be sure to observe the manufacturer's installation and
operating instructions and the instructions for
correct use of the child restraint system
(Y page 63).
Before every trip, make sure that the ISOFIX
child restraint system is engaged correctly in
both ISOFIX securing rings.
! When fitting the child restraint system,
make sure that the seat belt for the centre
seat does not get trapped. Otherwise, the
seat belt could be damaged. ISOFIX securing rings
X Install the ISOFIX child restraint system on
both ISOFIX securing rings :.
ISOFIX is a standardised securing system for
specially designed child restraint systems on
the rear seats. The ISOFIX securing rings for two
ISOFIX child restraint systems are fitted on the
left and right of the rear seats.
Non-ISOFIX child seats may also be used and
can be installed using the vehicle's seat belt
system. When fitting a child restraint system, be sure to observe the manufacturer's installation
and operating instructions and the instructions
for correct use of the child restraint system
(Y page 63). Top Tether
Introduction Top Tether provides an additional connection
between the child restraint system secured with
ISOFIX and the vehicle. It helps reduce the risk 60
Children in the vehicleSafety

of injury even further. If the child restraint sys-
tem is fitted with a Top Tether belt, this should
always be used.
Important safety notes G
WARNING
If the rear seat backrests are not locked, they
could fold forwards in the event of an acci-
dent, heavy braking or sudden changes of
direction. As a result, child restraint systems
cannot perform their intended protective
function. Rear seat backrests that are not
locked can also cause additional injuries, e.g. in the event of an accident. This poses an
increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Always lock rear seat backrests after fitting a Top Tether belt. Adjust the rear seat backr-
ests so that they are positioned upright.
Make sure that the backrest in the rear com-
partment engages fully. To do so, pull firmly on
the seat backrest.
Top Tether anchorages Top Tether anchorage points
?are located on
the rear side of the backrests on both outer rear seats. X
Move head restraint =upwards
(Y page 110).
X Fit the ISOFIX child restraint system with Top
Tether. Always comply with the child restraint
system manufacturer's installation instruc-
tions when doing so.
X Route Top Tether belt Bunder head restraint
= between the two head restraint bars.
X Guide Top Tether belt Bdownwards between

Rearward-facing child restraint system
If it is absolutely necessary to fit a rearward-
facing child restraint system to the front-
passenger seat, always make sure that the
front-passenger front airbag is disabled. Only if
the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp is
lit continuously (Y page 44)is the front-
passenger front airbag disabled.
Always observe the information on suitable
positioning of the child restraint system
(Y page 63) in addition to the child restraint
system manufacturer's installation and operat-
ing instructions.
Forward-facing child restraint system If it is absolutely necessary to fit a forward-
facing child restraint system to the front-
passenger seat, always move the front-
passenger seat as far back as possible. The
entire base of the child restraint system must
always rest on the seat cushion of the front-
passenger seat. The backrest of the child
restraint system must, as far as possible, lie flat
against the backrest of the front-passenger
seat. The child restraint system must not touch the roof or be put under strain by the head
restraint. Adjust the angle of the seat backrest
and the head restraint position accordingly.
Always make sure that the shoulder belt strap is
correctly routed from the vehicle belt outlet to
the shoulder belt guide on the child restraint
system. The shoulder belt strap must be routed forwards and downwards from the vehicle belt
outlet. If necessary, adjust the vehicle belt out-
let and the front-passenger seat accordingly.
Always observe the information on suitable
positioning of the child restraint system
(Y page 63) in addition to the child restraint
system manufacturer's installation and operat-
ing instructions. Suitable positioning of the child
restraint system
Introduction Only child restraint systems which are approved
in accordance with the ECE standard ECE R44
are permitted for use in the vehicle.
"Universal" category child restraint systems can
be recognised by their orange approval label and the text "Universal". Approval labels for child restraint systems in
accordance with ECE-R44 standards
"Universal" category child restraint systems can
be used on the seats indicated with U, UF or IUF according to the tables "Suitability of the seats
for attaching belt-secured child restraint sys-
tems" or "Suitability of the seats for attaching an
ISOFIX child restraint system".
Semi-universal child restraint systems are indi-
cated by the text "semi-universal" on the
approval label. These can be used if the vehicle and the seat are listed in the child restraint sys-
tem manufacturer's vehicle model list. For more
information, contact the child restraint system
manufacturer or visit their website.
Child restraint system on the front-
passenger seat – if it is absolutely necessary to
secure a child in a child restraint system on the front-passenger seat:
X Always pay attention to the instructions under
"Child restraint system on the front-
passenger seat" (Y page 62).
There you will find instructions on how to cor- rectly route the shoulder belt strap from the
vehicle belt outlet to the shoulder belt guide
on the child restraint system (Y page 63).
X Move the front-passenger seat as far back as
possible.
X Move the backrest to an almost vertical posi-
tion.
The entire base of the child restraint system
must always rest on the seat cushion of the
front-passenger seat. The backrest of the
forward-facing child restraint system must, as far as possible, be resting on the backrest of
the front-passenger seat. The child restraint
system must not touch the roof or be put
under strain by the head restraint. Adjust the

Suitability of the seats for attaching ISOFIX child restraint systems
If you use a baby car seat of category 0 or 0+ or a rearward-facing child restraint system of category
I on a rear seat, you must adjust the driver's or front-passenger seat so that the seat does not touch the child restraint system.
If you use a category I, forward-facing child restraint system, you should remove the head restraintfrom the respective seat, if possible (Y page 109). The backrest of the child restraint system must,
as far as possible, lie flat against the backrest of the seat.
Always observe the notes in the "Child restraint system" section (Y page 59) and the child restraint
system manufacturer's installation instructions.
When you remove the child restraint system you must replace the head restraints again immediately (Y page 109). All vehicle occupants must adjust their head restraints correctly before beginning the
journey.
Make sure that the child's feet are not touching the front seat. If necessary, move the front seat
forward slightly (Y page 109).
For certain child restraint systems in weight categories II or III, this can mean that the area of use is restricted. The maximum size setting of the child restraint system is not possible due to possible
contact with the roof.
Legend for the table:
XI SOFIX position that is not suitable for ISOFIX child restraint systems in this weight category
and/or size category.
IUF Suitable for forward-facing ISOFIX child seat securing systems that belong to the "Universal" category which are approved for use in this weight category.
IL Suitable for ISOFIX child restraint systems as recommended; see the "Recommended child restraint systems" table (Y page 67).
The manufacturer will also recommend a suitable ISOFIX child restraint system. For this, your
vehicle and the seat must be listed in the child restraint system manufacturer's model list. For more information, contact the child restraint system manufacturer or visit their website. Weight category Size category Equipment Rear seat left,
