Introduction to the restraint system
The restraint system can reduce the risk of vehi-
cle occupants coming into contact with parts of
the vehicle's interior in the event of an accident. The restraint system can also reduce the forces
to which vehicle occupants are subjected during an accident.
The restraint system includes the:
R seat belt system
R airbags
The components of the restraint system work in conjunction with each other. They can only offer
protection if all vehicle occupants always:
R have the seat belt correctly fastened
(Y page 37)
R have the seat adjusted properly
(Y page 78) Depending on the vehicle's equipment, the
head restraints must also be adjusted prop-
erly.
As the driver, you must also make sure that the
steering wheel is also adjusted properly.
Observe the information on the correct driver's
seat position (Y page 78).
In addition, you must make sure that the airbags can inflate properly if they are deployed
(Y page 39).
An airbag supplements a correctly worn seat
belt. As an additional safety device, the airbag
increases the level of protection for vehicle
occupants in the event of an accident. The air-
bags are not deployed, for example, in the event
of an accident in which sufficient protection is
offered by the seat belt. In addition, only those
airbags, which in the applicable accident situa-
tions offer additional protection, are deployed in the event of an accident. However, the seat beltand airbag generally do not protect against
objects penetrating the vehicle from the out-
side.
Information on how the restraint system oper-
ates can be found under "Deployment of belt
tensioners and airbags" (Y page 46).
See "Children in the vehicle" for information on
children travelling with you in the vehicle as well
as on child restraint systems (Y page 49). Important safety notes
G
WARNING
If the restraint system is modified, it may no
longer work as intended. The restraint system
may then not perform its intended protective function by failing in an accident or triggering
unexpectedly, for example. There is an
increased risk of injury, possibly even fatal.
Never modify parts of the restraint system. Do not attempt to modify the wiring as well as
electronic components or their software.
If the vehicle is adapted to a person with a phys-
ical disability, contact a qualified specialist
workshop.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you only use
driving aids which have been approved specifi-
cally for your vehicle by Mercedes-Benz. 34

Fastening the seat belts
Observe the safety notes on the seat belt
(Y page 36) and the information on correct use
of the seat belt (Y page 37). Basic illustration
X Adjust the seat (Y page 78).
The seat backrest must be in an almost
upright position.
X Pull the seat belt smoothly out of belt loop =
and engage belt tongue ;into belt
buckle :.
The seat belt on the driver's seat and the
front-passenger seat may be tightened auto-
matically; see "Belt adjustment"
(Y page 38).
X If necessary, pull upwards on the seat belt in
front of your chest so that the belt sits tightly
across your body.
Releasing seat belts !
Make sure that the seat belt is fully rolled up.
Otherwise, the seat belt or belt tongue will be
trapped in the door or in the seat mechanism. This could damage the door, the door trim
panel and the seat belt. Damaged seat belts
can no longer fulfil their protective function
and must be replaced. Visit a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.
X Press release button in belt buckle, hold belt
tongue firmly and guide the seat belt back. Seat belt adjustment The belt adjustment is an integral part of the
PRE-SAFE ®
convenience function. This function
adjusts the driver's and front-passenger seat
belt to the upper body of the vehicle occupants.
The belt strap is tightened slightly when:
R the seat belt tongue is engaged in the belt
buckle and
R the ignition is switched on
The belt adjustment will apply a certain tighten-
ing force if any slack is detected between the
vehicle occupant and the seat belt. Do not hold
on to the seat belt tightly while it is adjusting.
You can activate and deactivate the belt adjust-
ment via the multimedia system. Information on activating and deactivating the belt adjustment
can be found in the Digital Owner's Manual.
Seat belt warning for the driver and
front-passenger The
7 seat belt warning lamp in the instru-
ment cluster is a reminder that all vehicle occu-
pants must wear their seat belts. It may light up
continuously or flash. In addition, a warning tone may sound.
The 7 seat belt warning lamp goes out and
the warning tone ceases when the driver and the
front passenger have fastened their seat belts. Airbags
Introduction The airbag installation location is identified by
the label AIRBAG.
An airbag supplements a correctly fastened seat
belt. It is not a substitute for seat belts. The air-bag provides additional protection in the corre-
sponding accident situations.
Not all airbags are deployed in an accident. The
various airbag systems work independently of
one another (Y page 46).
However, no system available today can com-
pletely eliminate injuries and fatalities.
Due to the required speed of the airbag after
deployment, it is also not possible to entirely
rule out the risk of injuries caused by the airbag. 38
