Child restraint system on the front-

passenger seat

General notes

Accident statistics show that children

secured in the rear seats are safer than chil-

dren secured in the front-passenger seat. For

this reason, Mercedes-Benz strongly advises

that you install the child restraint system on a

rear seat.
If it is absolutely necessary to install a child

restraint system on the front-passenger seat,

be sure to observe the instructions and safety

notes on the "Occupant Classification System

(OCS)" (

Y

page 49).

You can thus avoid the risks that could arise

as a result of:

R

an incorrectly categorized person in the

front-passenger seat

R

the unintentional deactivation of the front-

passenger front air bag

R

the unsuitable positioning of the child

restraint system, e.g. too close to the dash-

board
