Safety and Security

Occupant safety

When you sell your vehicle we strongly
urge you to give notice to the subsequent
owner that it is equipped with an SRS by
alerting them to the applicable section in
the Operator’s Manual.

Front airbags

1 Driver airbag
2 Passenger front airbag

Driver and front passenger airbags are
deployed:

ț

in the event of certain frontal impacts

ț

if impact exceeds a preset deployment
threshold

ț

In addition, 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 Light Truck Center.

ț

For your protection and the protection
of others, when scrapping the airbag
unit or emergency tensioning device,
our safety instructions must be fol-
lowed. These instructions are available
from an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Light Truck Center.

ț

Given the considerable deployment
speed and the textile structure of the
airbags, there is the possibility of abra-
sions or other injuries resulting from
airbag deployment.

Warning!

G

In the event that the

1 indicator lamp

comes on while driving, the SRS may not be

operational. For your safety, we strongly

recommend that you visit an authorized

Mercedes-Benz Light Truck Center immedi-

ately to have the system checked; otherwise

the SRS may not be activated when needed

in an accident, which could result in serious

or fatal injury, or it might deploy unexpect-

edly and unnecessarily which could also re-

sult in injury.
