Notes on the safe transportation of children
WARNING Risk of accident and injury due to children left unattended in the vehicle
If you leave children unattended in the vehicle, they may be able to set the vehicle in motion, for example by:

  • Releasing the parking brake.

  • Shifting the transmission out of park position .

  • Starting the engine.

In addition, they may operate vehicle equipment.

Never leave children and animals unattended in the vehicle.
When leaving the vehicle, always take the key with you and lock the vehicle. This also applies to mobile phones if the "Digital Car Key in the smartphone" function is activated via the Mercedes me connect web app.
WARNING This poses an increased risk of death due to heat stroke or exposure to cold in the vehicle

If persons – particularly children – experience prolonged exposure to extremely high or low temperatures, this poses a risk of injury or even fatal injury.

Never leave anyone – particularly children – unattended in the vehicle.
WARNING Risk of burns when the child seat is exposed to direct sunlight

If the child restraint system is exposed to direct sunlight or heat, parts could heat up.

Children could suffer burns on these parts, particularly on metallic parts of the child restraint system.

Always make sure that the child restraint system is not exposed to direct sunlight.
Protect it with a blanket, for example.
If the child restraint system has been exposed to direct sunlight, allow it to cool before securing a child into it.
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle.
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:

  • Only secure children using a child restraint system which is suitable and recommended for Mercedes-Benz vehicles, as well as appropriate to the height, age and weight of the child. Be sure to observe the instructions for correct use of the child restraint system.

  • Always install a child restraint system on a rear seat if possible.

  • Only use the following securing systems for child restraint systems:

    • the seat belt system

    • the ISOFIX or i-Size mounting brackets

    • the Top Tether anchorages

  • The manufacturer's installation instructions for the child restraint system.

  • The warning labels in the vehicle interior and on the child restraint system.

WARNING Risk of injury or death caused by incorrect installation of the child restraint system

If the child restraint system is incorrectly installed on a suitable seating position, it cannot perform its intended protective function.

The child cannot be restrained in the event of an accident, heavy braking or a sudden change of direction.

Always comply with the manufacturer's installation instructions for the child restraint system and its correct use.
Make sure that the entire base of the child restraint system always rests on the sitting surface of the seat.
Never place objects under or behind the child restraint system, e.g. cushions.
Always use child restraint systems with the original cover designed for them.
Always replace damaged covers with genuine covers.
WARNING Risk of accident caused by incorrectly installed child restraint systems

If the child restraint system is not correctly installed or secured, it could release in the event of an accident, sudden braking or a sudden change in direction.

The child restraint system could be flung around and hit vehicle occupants. This poses an increased risk of injury or even death!

Always install child restraint systems correctly, even when not in use.
Always comply with the child restraint system manufacturer's installation instructions.
WARNING Risk of injury or death caused by the use of damaged child restraint systems

Child restraint systems or their retaining systems that have been subjected to a load in an accident may then not be able to perform their intended protective function.

The child cannot be restrained in the event of an accident, heavy braking or a sudden change of direction.

Always replace child restraint systems immediately that have been damaged or involved in an accident.
Have the securing systems for the child restraint systems checked at a qualified specialist workshop before installing a child restraint system again.

Use Mercedes-Benz care products recommended by Mercedes-Benz to clean child restraint systems. Further information can be obtained at a qualified specialist workshop.

Vehicles with seat belt buckle extenders: When securing a child in a child restraint system on a rear seat, observe the following notes:

  • Make sure that the seat belt is fastened on the child restraint system according to the manufacturer's installation instructions for the child restraint system.

  • For child restraint systems with a belt clamp: engage the seat belt tongue into the seat belt buckle before you tighten the seat belt using the belt clamp.

WARNING Risk of injury due to the seat backrest being reclined too far backwards

If a child restraint system is installed and the seat backrest is reclined too far backwards, the cushionbag may deploy by mistake in the event of an accident.

When using a child restraint system, always ensure that the seat is correctly adjusted and that the seat backrest is almost vertical.

Vehicles with a reclining rear seat: When installing a child restraint system, move the reclining rear seat backrest to an almost upright position. The reclining rear seat backrest must rest against the child restraint system. Observe the notes on the cushionbag More.

Vehicles with a reclining rear seat: If you install a child restraint system on the reclining rear seat, be sure to observe the child restraint system manufacturer's installation instructions.
