The securing systems of child restraint sys-
tems are:
R the seat belt system
R the ISOFIX securing rings
R the Top Tether anchorages (Coupé only)
If it is absolutely necessary to fit a child
restraint system on the front-passenger seat,
be sure to observe the information on "Child
restraint systems on the front-passenger
seat" (Y page 63).
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
recommended by Mercedes-Benz. You can
obtain information about this at any
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre. 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 instruc-
tions for correct use of the child restraint sys- tem (Y page 65).
Before every trip, make sure that the ISOFIX
child restraint system is engaged correctly in both ISOFIX securing rings. ISOFIX securing rings
;on the rear seats are
covered by folding upholstered lining =with
the Velcro fastening.
X Fold upholstered lining =upwards.
X Turn support :by 90°.
Upholstered lining =remains folded
upwards.
X Install the ISOFIX child restraint system on
both ISOFIX securing rings ;.
After you have removed the ISOFIX child
restraint system, you must turn support :on
upholstered lining =by 90° again. Then fold
upholstered lining =down.
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.
Non-LATCH-type (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 65). 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 of injury even further. If the child 62

restraint system is fitted with a Top Tether
belt, this should always be used.

the rear compartment behind the head
restraints on the parcel shelf. X

X Fit the ISOFIX child restraint system with

tion instructions when doing so.

X If necessary, move head restraint :back
down again slightly (Y page 112). Make
sure that you do not interfere with the cor-
rect routing of Top Tether belt A. Child restraint system on the front-
passenger seat
General notes Accident statistics show that children
secured in the rear seats are safer than chil-
dren secured in the front-passenger seat. For
this reason, Mercedes-Benz strongly advises
that you install a child restraint system on a
rear seat.
Vehicles with the automatic front-passenger
front airbag deactivation system: if it is abso- lutely necessary to fit a child restraint system
to the front-passenger seat, always observe
the information on the "Automatic front-
passenger front airbag deactivation system"
(Y page 51).
You can thus avoid the risks that could arise
as a result of:
R a child restraint system that is not detected
by the automatic front-passenger front air- bag deactivation system
R the unintentional disabling of the front-
passenger front airbag
R the unsuitable positioning of the child
restraint system, e.g. too close to the dash-
board Children in the vehicle
63Safety Z

Always observe the information on suitable
positioning of the child restraint system
(Y page 65) in addition to the child restraint
system manufacturer's installation and oper- ating instructions. Suitable positioning of the child
restraint system
Introduction Only child restraint systems which are
approved in accordance with the ECE stand-
ard ECE R44 are permitted for use in the vehi-
cle.
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.
"Universal" category child restraint systems
can be recognised by their orange approval
label and the text "Universal". Example: approval label on the child restraint
system
"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 systems" or "Suitability of the seats
for attaching an ISOFIX child restraint sys-
tem".
Semi-universal child restraint systems are
indicated by the text "semi-universal" on the
approval label. These can be used if the vehi- cle and the seat are listed in the child restraint
system manufacturer's vehicle model list. For
more information, contact the child restraint
system manufacturer or visit their website.
If it is absolutely necessary to fit a child
restraint system to the front-passenger seat:
X Always pay attention to the instructions
under "Child restraint system on the front-
passenger seat" (Y page 63).
There you will find instructions on how to
correctly route the shoulder belt strap from the vehicle seat-belt extender or belt outlet
to the shoulder belt guide on the child
restraint system (Y page 64).
X Move the front-passenger seat as far back
as possible and fully retract the seat cush-
ion length.
If you secure a child in a forward-facing
child restraint system on the front-
passenger seat, also move the front-
passenger seat to the lowest position.
X Move the backrest to an almost vertical
position.
The entire base of the child restraint sys-
tem 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 angle of the seat back- rest and the head restraint position accord-
ingly. Also observe the child restraint sys-
tem manufacturer's installation instruc-
tions.
X Move the seat cushion angle to the highest,
most vertical position. Children in the vehicle

Suitability of the seats for attaching belt-secured 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.
Always observe the notes in the "Child restraint system" section (Y page 61) and the child
restraint system manufacturer's installation instructions.

WARNING
If you leave animals unsupervised or unse-
cured in the vehicle, they may push a button
or a switch, for example.
They could:
R activate vehicle equipment and become
trapped, for example
R switch vehicle systems on or off, thus
endangering other road users
In the event of an accident, sudden braking or
abrupt changes of direction, unsecured ani-
mals could be flung around the vehicle, injur-
ing the vehicle occupants. There is a risk of an accident and injury.
Never leave animals unattended in the vehi-
cle. Always secure animals correctly during a
journey, e.g. in an animal transport box. Driving safety systems
