Safety guidelines for the seat belt, emergency
tensioning retractor and airbag
Warning!
• Damaged seat belts or belts that were highly
stressed in an accident must be replaced and
their anchoring points must also be checked.
Use only belts installed or supplied by an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
• Do not pass belts over sharp edges.
• Do not make any modification that could
change the effectiveness of the belts.
• Airbags and ETR's are designed to function on
a one-time-only basis. An airbag or emergency
tensioning retractor (ETR) that was activated
must be replaced.

• No modifications of any kind may be made to
any components or wiring of the "SRS". This
includes changing or removing any component
or part of the "SRS", the installation of
additional trim material, badges etc. over the
steering wheel hub, passenger airbag cover, or
door trim panels, and installation of additional
electrical/electronic equipment on or near
"SRS" components and wiring. Keep area
between airbags and occupants free of objects
(e.g. packages, purses, umbrellas, etc.).
• An airbag system component within the
steering wheel gets hot after the airbag has
inflated. Do not touch.
• Improper work on the system, including
incorrect installation and removal, can lead to
possible injury through an unintended
activation of the "SRS".
• In addition, through improper work there is
the risk of rendering the "SRS" inoperative or
causing unintended airbag deployment. Work
on the "SRS" must therefore only be performed
by an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
