Occupant safety
i
In many countries there are laws concerning
the use of seat belts and child restraint systems.
The SRS (Supplemental Restraint System)
consists of:
Warning lamp
=
Belt tensioners
Belt force limiters
Airbag system with:
Airbag control unit
Airbags
Warning lamp
=
The SRS performs a self-test at regular in-
tervals when the ignition is switched on
and the engine is running. Malfunctions
can therefore be detected in good time.
The
=
warning lamp in the instrument
cluster ( page 12) lights up when you
switch on the ignition and goes out a few
seconds after the engine is started.
Persons under 1.50 m tall or under twelve
years of age cannot wear the seat belts
properly. They therefore require additional
suitable restraint systems fitted on appro-
priate seats for protection in an accident. Al-
ways follow the manufacturer’s installation
instructions when fitting a child seat.
G
Risk of injury
A seat belt only offers its intended degree
of protection if the backrest is positioned as
close to the vertical as possible and the
occupant is sitting upright. Avoid seat posi-
tions that do not allow the seat belt to be
routed correctly. Position the backrest as
close to the vertical as possible. Do not drive
with the backrest reclined too far back. Oth-
erwise, you could be seriously or even fatally
injured in the event of an accident or sudden
braking.
G
Risk of injury
The seat belt cannot function correctly if the
belt or buckle is dirty or damaged. Keep the
belt and buckle clean, otherwise the belt
tongue cannot engage correctly.
Regularly check the seat belts to make sure
that they:
are not damaged
are not routed over sharp edges
are not trapped
Otherwise, the belt could tear in the event of
an accident. You or others could be serious-
ly or fatally injured.
Have seat belts which have been damaged
or subjected to heavy loads in an accident
replaced and have their anchorages
checked.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that, for safety
reasons, you only use seat belts which have
been specially approved for your vehicle by
Mercedes-Benz.
