Always observe when children are travelling in the vehicle

Always observe the safety notes relevant to the situation. In doing so, you will be able to identify possible risks and avoid dangers when children are travelling in the vehicle More.

Be diligent

Bear in mind that negligence when securing a child in the child restraint system may have serious consequences. Always be diligent and secure a child carefully before each journey.

Infants and children must never travel sitting on the lap of a vehicle occupant.

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.

  • a baby car seat

  • a child booster seat with a backrest and seat belt guides

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