In this section you will learn the most im-
portant facts about the restraint systems
of the vehicle.
The restraint systems are
앫 Seat belts
앫
Emergency tensioning device
앫 Airbags
앫 Child seat
앫
Child seat recognition
앫
Lower anchors and tethers for children
(LATCH)
As independent systems, their protective
effects work in conjunction with each
other.
The
1
indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster (
컄
page 26) comes on for about
four seconds when you turn the key in the
steering lock to position
2 . It goes out
when you start the engine. This shows that
the restraint systems are operational.
If the lamp does not come on at all or if it
fails to extinguish after approximately four
seconds or if it comes on thereafter, a mal-
function in the system has been detected.
More information can be found in the
“Practical hints” section (
컄 page 255).

Warning!
G
In the event that the
1
malfunction indi-
cator lamp comes on during driving or does
not come at all, the SRS may not be opera-
tional.
For your safety, we strongly recommend
that you visit an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Light Truck Center immediately to have the
system checked; otherwise the SRS may not
be activated when needed in an accident,
which could result in serious or fatal injury,
or it might deploy unexpectedly and unnec-
essarily which could also result in injury.
Improper work on the restraint systems, in-
cluding incorrect installation and removal,
can lead to possible injury through an unin-
tended activation of the SRS.
In addition, through improper work there is
a risk of rendering the SRS inoperative or
causing unintended airbag deployment.
Work on the SRS must therefore only be per-
formed by qualified technicians. Contact
your authorized Mercedes-Benz Light Truck
Center.
