R
Do not install additional electrical/
electronic equipment on or near SRS
components and wiring.
R
Keep area between air bags and occupants
free of objects (e.g. packages, purses,
umbrellas, etc.).
R
Air bag system components will be hot after
an air bag has inflated. Do not touch them.
R
Never place your feet on the instrument
panel, dashboard, or on the seat. Always
keep both feet on the floor in front of the
seat.
R
Improper repair work on the SRS creates a
risk of rendering the SRS inoperative or
causing unintended air bag deployment.
Work on the SRS must therefore only be
performed by qualified technicians.
Contact an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center.
R
For your protection and the protection of
others, when scrapping the air bag unit or
ETD, our safety instructions must be
followed. These instructions are available
from any authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center.
R
Given the considerable deployment speed,
required inflation volume, and the material
of the air bags, there is the possibility of
abrasions or other, potentially more serious
injuries resulting from air bag deployment.
If you sell your vehicle, Mercedes-Benz
strongly recommends that you inform the
subsequent owner that the vehicle is
equipped with SRS. Also, refer them to the
applicable section in the Operator's Manual.
Air bags
Important safety notes
G WARNING
Air bags are designed to reduce the potential
of injury and fatality rates in certain
situations:
R
frontal impacts (driver's and front-
passenger front air bags and knee bags)
R
side impacts (head bags and side impact air
bags)
However, no system available today can
completely eliminate injuries and fatalities.
When the air bags are deployed, a small
amount of powder temporarily comes out of
the air bags. This powder generally does not
constitute a health hazard and does not
indicate that there is a fire in the vehicle. In
order to prevent potential breathing
difficulties, you should leave the vehicle as
soon as it is safe to do so. If you have any
breathing difficulty but cannot get out of the
vehicle, then get fresh air by opening a side
window or door.
G
WARNING
In order to reduce the potential danger of
injuries caused during the deployment of the
front air bags, the driver and front passenger
must always be correctly seated and wear
their seat belts.
For maximum protection in the event of a
collision, you must always be in the normal
seat position with your back against the
backrest. Fasten your seat belt and make sure
that it is correctly positioned on your body.
