After turning the SmartKey in the starter

twice, the
75

located in the center console comes on for
approximately 6 seconds and then goes

should not come on or is continuously lit,
the system is not functioning. You must
see an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center

seat.

The system does not deactivate the side im-
pact air bag, the window curtain air bag and the
emergency tensioning device.
Warning!
G
The BabySmart
TM
air bag deactivation sys-
tem will ONLY work with a special child seat
designed to operate with it. It will not work
with child seats which are not BabySmart
TM
compatible.
Never place anything between seat cushion
and child seat (e.g. pillow), since it reduces
the effectiveness of the deactivation sys-
tem. The bottom of the child seat must
make full contact with the passenger seat
cushion. An incorrectly mounted child seat
could cause injuries to the child in case of an
accident, instead of protecting the child.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for
installation of special child seats.
