Windowbags
:
are deployed:
R
at the start of an accident with a high rate
of vehicle acceleration or deceleration in a
lateral direction
R
on the side on which an impact occurs
R
independently of the front airbags
R
regardless of whether the front-passenger
seat is occupied
R
independently of the seat belt use
R
if the vehicle overturns and the system
determines that windowbag deployment
can offer additional protection to that pro-
vided by the seat belt

PRE-SAFE
®
system takes pre-emptive meas-
ures to protect you in certain hazardous sit-
uations.
PRE-SAFE
®
intervenes in the event of:
R
emergency braking situations, e.g. if the
BAS Brake Assist intervenes
R
critical situations involving driving dynam-
ics, e.g. if the vehicle oversteers or under-
steers significantly due to physical limits
being exceeded
If you are driving faster than approximately
30 km/h, PRE-SAFE
®
may take the following
measures in these situations:
R
it tensions the front seat belts.
R
on vehicles with memory functions*: it
adjusts the front-passenger seat if this is in
an unfavourable position.
R
if the vehicle skids, it closes the panorama
sliding sunroof* and the side windows so
that only a small gap remains.
if the hazardous situation passes without
resulting in an accident, PRE-SAFE
®
slackens
the belt pretensioning. You can then reverse
all settings made by PRE-SAFE
®
.
If the seat belts are not released:
X
Move the backrest or the seat back slightly
until the belt tension is reduced.
The locking mechanism releases.

Risk of injury
When adjusting the seat, make sure that
nobody can become trapped.
!
Make sure that there are no objects in the
footwell or behind the seats when adjusting
the seats. You could otherwise damage the
seats and the objects.
NECK-PRO head restraints
NECK-PRO head restraints are designed to
increase protection to the driver's and front-
passenger's head and neck. To this end, the
head restraints on the driver's and front-
passenger seats are moved forwards and
upwards in the event of a rear-end collision of
a certain severity when viewed in the direc-
tion of travel. This provides better head sup-
port.
G
Risk of injury
Head restraint covers prevent the NECK-PRO
head restraints from triggering correctly. Con-
sequently, the NECK-PRO head restraints
