an accident, heavy braking or sudden
changes of direction. There is an increased
risk of injury, possibly even fatal.
Always ensure that all vehicle occupants have
their seat belts fastened correctly and are sit-
ting properly.

WARNING
The seat belt does not offer the intended level
of protection if you have not moved the back-
rest to an almost vertical position. When brak-
ing or in the event of an accident, you could
slide underneath the seat belt and sustain
abdomen or neck injuries, for example. This
poses an increased risk of injury or even fatal
injury.
Adjust the seat properly before beginning
your journey. Always ensure that the backrest
is in an almost vertical position and that the
shoulder section of your seatbelt is routed
across the centre of your shoulder.
G
WARNING
Persons under 1.50 m tall cannot wear the
seat belts correctly without an additional suit-
able restraint system. If the seat belt is worn
incorrectly, it cannot perform its intended
protective function. Furthermore, an incor-
rectly worn seat belt can cause additional
injuries, e.g. in the event of an accident, heavy
braking or sudden changes of direction. There
is an increased risk of injury, possibly even
fatal.
Always secure persons less than 1.50 m tall in
additional suitable restraint systems.
If a child younger than twelve years old and
under 1.50 m in height is travelling in the vehi-
cle:
R
Always secure the child in a child restraint
system suitable for this Mercedes-Benz vehi-
cle. The child restraint system must be appro-
priate to the age, weight and size of the child.
R
Be sure to observe the instructions and safety
notes on "Children in the vehicle"
(
Y
page 38) in addition to the manufactur-
er's operating and installation instructions for
the child restraint system.
G
WARNING
Seat belts cannot protect as intended, if:
R
they are damaged, have been modified, are
extremely dirty, bleached or dyed
R
the seat belt buckle is damaged or
extremely dirty
R
modifications have been made to the belt
tensioners, belt anchorages or inertia reels
Seat belts may sustain non-visible damage in
an accident, e.g. due to glass splinters. Modi-
fied or damaged seat belts can tear or fail, for
example in the event of an accident. Modified
seat belt tensioners may be deployed unin-
tentionally or not function as intended. There
is an increased risk of injury, possibly even
fatal.
Never modify seat belts, seat belt tensioners,
seat belt anchorages and inertia reels. Ensure
that seat belts are not damaged or worn and
are clean. After an accident, have the seat
belts checked immediately at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you only use
seat belts that have been approved specifically
for your vehicle by Mercedes-Benz. Otherwise,
your vehicle's general operating permit could be
invalidated.
Correct seat belt use
Observe the safety notes on the seat belt
(
Y
page 32).
All vehicle occupants must be wearing the seat
belt correctly before beginning the journey. Also
make sure that all vehicle occupants are always
wearing the seat belt correctly while the vehicle
is in motion.
When fastening a seat belt, always make sure
that:
R
the seat belt buckle tongue is inserted only
into the belt buckle belonging to that seat
R
the seat belt is pulled tight across the body
Avoid wearing bulky clothing, e.g. a winter
coat.
R
the seat belt is not twisted
Only then can any forces that occur be dis-
tributed across the surface of the seat belt.
