Only use seat belts that have been approved for
your vehicle by Mercedes-Benz.

WARNING Risk of injury or death from
deployed pyrotechnic Emergency Ten‐
sioning Devices
Pyrotechnic Emergency Tensioning Devices
that have been deployed are no longer opera‐
tional and are unable to perform their inten‐
ded protective function.
#
Therefore, have deployed pyrotechnic
Emergency Tensioning Devices immedi‐
ately replaced at a qualified specialist
workshop.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you have the
vehicle towed to a qualified specialist workshop
after an accident.

NOTE Damage caused by trapping the
seat belt
If an unused seat belt is not fully retracted, it
may become trapped in the door or in the
seat mechanism.
#
Always ensure that an unused seat belt
is fully retracted.
Information on the belt air bag in the rear
seat belt
The BELTBAG identification indicates that a rear
seat belt is equipped with a belt air bag.
When activated, the belt air bag increases the
protected area of the vehicle occupant's ribcage.
&
WARNING Risk of injury or death
through the use of a non-approved child
restraint system
In an accident, the belt air bag may damage
a non-approved or non-authorized child
restraint system.
As a result, the child restraint system may
not be able to provide the intended level of
protection.
#
Therefore, always use LATCH or LATCH-
type (ISOFIX) to fasten a child seat
equipped with an integrated restraint
system.
#
For vehicles equipped with the optional
rear seat-belt air bags ("beltbag"), only
use a Mercedes-Benz approved booster
seat with integrated backrest.
#
Never use an air bag equipped seat belt
to fasten a front or rear-facing child
seat or a non-approved booster seat.
#
Please contact an authorized Mercedes-
Benz Center for information on
approved child restraint systems.
Fastening and adjusting seat belts
If the seat belt is pulled quickly or sharply, the
seat belt retractor locks. The seat belt strap can‐
not be pulled out any further.
