Seats, restraints47Seat belts are designed to be used by
only one person at a time. Child
restraint system 3 55.
Periodically check all parts of the belt system for damage and proper
functionality.
Have damaged components
replaced. After an accident, have the
belts and triggered belt pretensioners
replaced by a workshop.
Notice
Make sure that the belts are not damaged by shoes or sharp-edgedobjects or are trapped. Prevent dirt
from getting into the belt retractors.
Seat belt reminder
Front seats are equipped with a seat
belt reminder, indicated by control
indicator X in the roof console or
beside the climate controls in the
instrument panel 3 81, 3 84.
Belt force limiters
On the front seats, stress on the body is reduced by the gradual release of
the belt during a collision.Belt pretensioners
In the event of a head-on or rear-end
collision of a certain severity, the front
seat belts are tightened.9 Warning
Incorrect handling (e.g. removal or
fitting of belts) can trigger the belt
pretensioners.
Deployment of the belt pretensioners
is indicated by continuous illumination
of control indicator v 3 84.
Triggered belt pretensioners must be replaced by a workshop. Belt
pretensioners can only be triggered
once.
Notice
Do not affix or install accessories or
other objects that may interfere with
the operation of the belt
pretensioners. Do not make any
modifications to belt pretensioner components as this will invalidate
the vehicle type approval.
Three-point seat belt
Fastening
Withdraw the belt from the retractor,
guide it untwisted across the body
and insert the latch plate into the
buckle. Tighten the lap belt regularly
whilst driving by pulling the shoulder
belt.

54Seats, restraints
The front passenger airbag system
can be deactivated via a switch on the
side of the instrument panel.
With the ignition off, open the front
door, push switch in and rotate anti-
clockwise to the OFF position.
Front passenger seat airbags are
deactivated and will not inflate in the event of a collision. Control indicator
W 3 84 illuminates continuously (in
the roof console or beside the climate controls in the instrument panel) and
a corresponding message appears in
the Driver Information Centre (DIC)
3 89.
A child restraint system can be
installed in accordance with the
installation locations chart 3 56. An
adult must not occupy the front
passenger seat.
9 Danger
Risk of fatal injury for a child using
a child restraint system together
with activated front passenger
airbag.
Risk of fatal injury for an adult
person with deactivated front
passenger airbag.
As long as control indicator W is not
illuminated, the airbag systems for
the front passenger seat will inflate in the event of a collision.
If control indicator A remains
illuminated together with v, this
indicates a fault within the system.
The switch position may have been
changed inadvertently with the
ignition on. Turn ignition off and on
again and reset the switch position. If
A and v still remain illuminated,
seek the assistance of a workshop.
Change status only when the vehicle
is stopped with the ignition off. Status remains until the next change.
Control indicator W for airbag
deactivation 3 84.
