Limitations of the protection provided by airbags
& WARNING Risk of injury due to modifica-
tions to the cover of an airbag
If you modify the cover of an airbag or affix
objects such as stickers to it, the airbag can
no longer function as intended.
Never modify the cover of an airbag.
#
Do not attach any objects to the cover.
#
The installation location of an airbag is identified
by the AIRBAG symbol ( page 55).
/
Objects in the deployment area of an airbag may
prevent the airbag from functioning correctly.
& WARNING Risk of injury from objects in
the deployment area of an airbag
Objects in the deployment area of an airbag
can hinder or prevent the correct deployment
of the airbag.
The airbag may then deploy in an uncontrolled
manner and may even cause additional inju-
ries to the vehicle occupants by deploying.
Occupant safety
This may be the case in particular if the airbag
is integrated into the seat.
Always stow and secure objects cor-
#
rectly.
Before commencing your journey, make
#
sure that no objects are stowed in the
deployment area of an airbag.
& WARNING Risk of injury or death due to
the use of unsuitable seat covers
If you use unsuitable seat covers, the airbags
cannot protect vehicle occupants as they are
designed to do.
In addition, the function of the automatic co-
driver airbag shutoff could be restricted.
You should only use seat covers that
#
have been approved for the correspond-
ing seats by Mercedes-Benz.
