increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Always lock rear seat backrests after fitting a

fully. To do this, pull the backrest firmly.

General notes
Accident statistics show that children secured
in the rear seats are safer than children secured
in the front-passenger seat. For this reason,
Mercedes-Benz strongly advises that you install
a child restraint system on a rear seat.
You can thus avoid the risks that could arise as
a result of an unsuitable positioning of the child
restraint system, e.g. too close to the dash-
board.
Please observe the warning notice on the front-
passenger sun visor, see the illustration.

WARNING
If you secure a child in a rearward-facing child
restraint system on the co-driver's seat, the
child can be hit by the co-driver's front airbag
if it is deployed in an accident.
3 Not every co-driver's seat is equipped with Top Tether anchorages.
