Risk of injury
G
To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury
caused by inflation of the airbag in milli-
seconds, observe the following:
Choose a seat position that allows you
to sit as far back from the airbag as pos-
sible, but still allows you to drive the ve-
hicle safely.
Only hold the steering wheel by the rim.
Do not lean over the padded boss of the
steering wheel while the vehicle is in
motion or when the key is in position 2
in the ignition lock. This allows the air-
bag to inflate fully.
Do not cover the padded boss of the
steering wheel or affix badges or stick-
ers to it. Otherwise correct functioning
of the airbag cannot be guaranteed.
Because the airbag inflates in a matter
of milliseconds, there is a high risk of in-
jury.
Severe injuries could be caused by be-
ing very near the point where the airbag
is triggered.
Do not touch any parts of the airbag
once it has been triggered. Parts of the
airbag could be hot.
Correct operation of the airbag module is no
longer guaranteed after 15 years of service.
For safety reasons, the airbag module
should be replaced after 15 years at the lat-
est.
The maintenance work should always be
carried out at a qualified specialist work-
shop.
DaimlerChrysler recommends that you visit
a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre as it has
the necessary specialist knowledge and
tools for the work required. For work rele-
vant to safety and work on safety-related
systems in particular, it is essential that
maintenance work is carried out at a quali-
fied specialist workshop.
If you sell the vehicle, you should pass the
Operating Instructions on to the new owner.
The buyer or others would otherwise not be
aware of and be able to reduce the risks of
injury.
