Function of the post-collision brake
Depending on the accident situation, the post-col-
lision brake can minimise the severity of a further
collision or even avoid it.
If an accident is detected, the post-collision brake
can implement automatic braking. When the vehi-
cle has come to a standstill, the electric parking
brake is automatically applied.
The driver can cancel automatic braking by taking
the following actions:
R
braking more strongly than automatic braking
R
fully depressing the accelerator pedal with
force
Safely transporting children in the vehicle
Always observe when children are travelling in the
vehicle
%
Also strictly observe the safety notes for the
specific situation. In this way you can recog-
nise potential risks and avoid dangers if chil-
dren are travelling in the vehicle
(

page 62).
Be diligent
Bear in mind that negligence when securing a
child in the child restraint system may have seri-
ous consequences. Always be diligent in securing
a child carefully before every journey.
Never allow babies and children to travel sitting
on the lap of another vehicle occupant.
To improve protection for children younger than
12 years old or under 1.50 m in height,
Mercedes-Benz recommends you observe the fol-
lowing information:
R
Always secure the child in a child restraint sys-
tem suitable for this Mercedes-Benz vehicle.
R
The child restraint system must be appropriate
to the age, weight and size of the child.
R
The vehicle seat must be suitable for fitting a
child restraint system (
/
page 66).
Accident statistics show that children secured on
the rear seats are generally safer than children
secured on the front seats. For this reason,
Mercedes-Benz strongly advises that you fit a
child restraint system to a rear seat.
The generic term child restraint system
The generic term child restraint system is used in
this Owner's Manual. A child restraint system is,
for example:
R

R
a rearward-facing child seat

belt guide
Mercedes-Benz recommends using a child
booster seat with a backrest.
The child restraint system must be appropriate to
the age, weight and size of the child.
Observe laws and legal requirements
Always observe the legal requirements when
using a child restraint system in the vehicle.
Make sure that the child restraint system is
approved in accordance with the valid test specifi-
cations and guidelines. Further information can
