Always observe when children are travelling in the vehicle

Also strictly observe the safety notes for the specific situation. In this way you can recognise potential risks and avoid dangers if children are travelling in the vehicle More.

Be diligent

Bear in mind that neglecting to secure a child in the child restraint system may have serious consequences. Always be diligent in securing a child carefully before every journey.

To improve protection for children younger than 12 years old or under 1.50 m in height, Mercedes-Benz recommends you observe the following information:
  • Always secure the child in a child restraint system suitable for this Mercedes-Benz vehicle.

  • The child restraint system must be appropriate to the age, weight and size of the child.

  • The vehicle seat must be suitable for fitting a child restraint system More.

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.

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:
  • a baby car seat

  • a rearward-facing child seat

  • a forward-facing child seat

  • a child booster seat with a backrest and 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.

Observing 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 specifications and guidelines. Further information can be obtained at a qualified specialist workshop. Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre for this purpose.

Only use approved child restraint systems
Only child restraint systems that meet the following UNECE standards are permitted for use in the vehicle:
  • UN-R44

  • UN-R129 (i-Size child restraint systems)
