Sidebags
G WARNING
Unsuitable seat covers can obstruct or pre-
vent the deployment of the airbags integrated
into the seats. Consequently, the airbags can-
not protect vehicle occupants as they are
designed to do. In addition, the function of the
automatic front-passenger front airbag deac-
tivation system could be restricted. This
poses an increased risk of injury or even fatal
injury.
You should only use seat covers that have
been approved for the corresponding seats by
Mercedes-Benz.

deploy next to the outer bolster of the seat
backrest.

vehicles with the automatic front-passenger
front airbag deactivation system: the sidebag
on the front-passenger side (front) deploys
under the following conditions:
R
an occupant is detected on the front-
passenger seat or
R
the belt tongue is engaged in the belt
buckle of the front-passenger seat
If the belt tongue is engaged in the belt
buckle, the sidebag on the front-passenger
side deploys if an appropriate accident situa-
tion occurs. In this case, deployment is inde-
pendent of whether the front-passenger seat
is occupied or not.

of the roof frame and deployed in the area
from the A-pillar to the C-pillar.
