& WARNING Risk of injury or death due to
use of a non-approved child restraint sys‐
tem

non-approved child restraint system or a
child restraint system which has not been

mends that you only use a child restraint sys‐
tem which has been tested and approved by
Mercedes-Benz in combination with a belt
airbag.
