tem on the front passenger seat: depending on
the child restraint system and the stature of the
child, PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF may be lit contin-
uously or be oM. Always observe the following
information.
&WARNING Risk of injury or death due to
incorrect positioning of the forward-facing
child restraint system
If you secure a child in a forward-facing child
restraint system on the front passenger seat
that is positioned too close to the cockpit, in
the event of an accident, the child could:
= come into contact with the vehicle interior
if the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator
lamp is lit, for example
= be struck by the airbag if the PASSENGER
AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp is oM.
Always move the front passenger seat as
far back as possible and fully retract the

Function of PRE-SAFE n
(anticipatory occupant
protection)
PRE-SAFE n
is able to detect certain critical driv-
ing situations and implement pre-emptive meas-
ures to protect the vehicle occupants.
PRE-SAFE n
can implement the following meas-
ures independently of each other:
= Tightening the seat belts on the driver\bs seat
and front passenger seat.
= Closing the side windows.
= Vehicles with sliding sunroof: closing the slid-
ing sunroof.
= Vehicles with memory function: moving the
front passenger seat to a more favorable seat
position.
= Vehicles with multicontour seat: increasing the
air pressure in the seat side bolsters of the seat backrest.
= PRE-SAFE n
Sound: provided that the multime-
dia system is switched on, generating a brief
noise signal to stimulate the innate protective
mechanism of a person\bs hearing.*NOTE Damage caused by objects in the
footwell or behind the seat
The automatic adjustment of the seat position
may result in damage to the seat and/or the object.
Stow objects in a suitable place.
Backing up the PRE-SAFE n
system measures
If an accident did not occur, the pre-emptive
measures that were taken are reversed.
You will need to perform certain settings yourself.
If the seat belt pre-tensioning is not reduced,
move the seat backrest back slightly.
The locking mechanism releases.
Function of PRE-SAFE n
PLUS (anticipatory occu-
pant protection plus)
PRE-SAFE n
PLUS can detect certain impacts, par-
ticularly an imminent rear impact, and take pre-
emptive measures to protect the vehicle occu-
pants. These measures cannot necessarily pre-
vent an imminent impact.
PRE-SAFE n
PLUS can implement the following
measures independently of each other:
= Tightening the seat belts on the driver\bs seat
and front passenger seat.
= Increasing brake pressure when the vehicle is
stationary. This brake application is canceled
automatically when the vehicle pulls away.
If an accident did not occur, the pre-emptive
measures that were taken are reversed.
System limits
The system will not initiate any action in the fol- lowing situations:

Impulse Side can pre-emptively move the
front seat vehicle occupant\bs upper body towards
the center of the vehicle. It does this by rapidly inOating an air cushion in the outer seat side bol-
ster of the seat backrest on the side on which the impact is anticipated. This increases the distance
between the door and the vehicle occupant.

Safely transporting children in the vehicle
Always observe when children are traveling in the
vehicle
\bAlso strictly observe the safety notes for the
speciNc situation. In this way you can recog-nize potential risks and avoid dangers if chil-
dren are traveling in the vehicle
( page 52).
Be diligent
Bear in mind that negligence when securing a
child in the child restraint system may have seri-
ous consequences. Always be diligent in securing
a child carefully before every journey.
Never allow babies and children to travel sitting
on the lap of another vehicle occupant.
To improve protection for children younger than
12 years old or under 5 s (1.50 m) in height,
Mercedes-Benz recommends you observe the fol- lowing information:
= Always secure the child in a child restraint sys-
tem suitable for this Mercedes-Benz vehicle.
= The child restraint system must be appropriate
to the age, weight and size of the child.
= The vehicle seat must be suitable for installing
a child restraint system.
Accident statistics show that children secured on
the rear seats are generally safer than children secured on the front seats. For this reason,
Mercedes-Benz strongly advises that you install a
child restraint system on a rear seat.
The generic term child restraint system The generic term child restraint system is used in this Operator\bs Manual. A child restraint systemis, for example:
= a baby car seat
= a rearward-facing child seat
= a forward-facing child seat
= a child booster seat with a backrest and seat
belt guide
Mercedes-Benz recommends using a child
booster seat with a backrest.
The child restraint system must be appropriate to
the age, weight and size of the child.
Observe laws and legal requirements
Always observe the legal requirements when
using a child restraint system in the vehicle.Occupant safety51

Observe standards for child restraint systemsAll child restraint systems must meet the following
standards:
= U.S. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
213
= Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards 213
ConNrmation that the child restraint system com-
plies with the standards can be found on an instruction label on the child restraint system.This conNrmation can also be found in the instal-
lation instructions that are included with the child
restraint system.
Detecting risks, avoiding danger
Securing systems for child restraint systems in the vehicle
Only use the following securing systems for child restraint systems:
= the ISOFIX mounting brackets
= the vehicle\bs seat belt system
= the Top Tether anchorages
Installing an ISOFIX child restraint system is pre-
ferred.
Simply attaching to the securing rings on the vehi-
cle can reduce the risk of installing the child
restraint system incorrectly.
When securing a child with the integrated seat
belt of the ISOFIX child restraint system, always
comply with the permissible gross weight for the child and child restraint system ( page 56).
A child booster seat may be necessary to achieve proper seat belt positioning for children over
40 lbs (18 kg) in weight or until they reach a
height where a three-point seat belt can be instal-
led properly without a child booster seat.
Mercedes-Benz recommends a suitable child booster seat with a backrest and seat belt guide.
Advantage of a rearward-facing child restraint sys-
tem
It is preferable to transport a baby or a small child
in a suitable rearward-facing child restraint sys-
tem. In this case, the child sits in the opposite
direction to the direction of travel and faces back- wards.Babies and small children have comparatively
weak neck muscles in relation to the size and
weight of their head. The risk of injury to the cer- vical spine during an accident can be reduced in a
rearward-facing child restraint system.
Always secure a child restraint system correctly&WARNING Risk of injury or death due to
incorrect installation of the child restraint
system
The child can then not be protected or
restrained as intended.
Be sure to comply with the manufactur-
er\bs installation instructions for the child
restraint system and its correct use.Make sure that the entire base of the child restraint system always rests on
the sitting surface of the seat.Never place objects (e.g. cushions)
under or behind the child restraint sys- tem.Use child restraint systems only with the
original cover designed for them.52Occupant safety
