Warning
Do not secure the Top Tether hook to the loop
underneath the Top Tether anchorage if you
are securing a child restraint system in the
third row of seats. The child restraint system
is not secured if you do so. An incorrectly
fitted child restraint system cannot perform
its intended protective function in the event
of an accident, and could lead to injuries.

Swing back the rear seat backrest until it
engages (Y page 250).
The outer seats of the 2nd row of seats are
only engaged when the lock verification
indicator is folded in and the warning tab is
barely visible (Y page 250).
G
Warning
Make sure that the seats are locked and that
the backrests are locked in a vertical position
after fitting the Top Tether belt.
The outer seats in the second row are only
locked if the lock verification indicator is
folded in and the indicator area is barely
visible.
If the backrests are not locked, they could fold
forwards in the event of an accident, sudden
braking or a sudden change of direction.
Instead of restraining an occupant, they could
cause additional serious or even fatal injury.

G
Warning
Only secure a child restraint system on the
center seat in the second row when the belt
buckles of the outer seats are not obstructed
or overlapped by the child restraint system.
Not all child restraint systems, including some
Mercedes-Benz approved child restraint
systems, can be used in this seat position. For
further information contact an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
Do not use the LATCH-type anchors (ISOFIX)
or seat belt buckles for the outer seats in
conjunction with a child seat in the second-
row center seat. Child seats in the center
seating position must only be secured by the
center seat position seat belt inserted into the
seat belt buckle for the second-row center
seat.
G
Warning
Please be aware that installation of a child
seat in the second-row center seat position
can prevent the folding forward of the outer
second-row seats which can obstruct access
to and exit from the third-row seats. This
could affect the occupants' on the third-row
seats ability to exit the vehicle. In case of an
accident it will be difficult for occupants of the
third-row seats to leave the vehicle. Serious
injuries could be the result.
Install a child seat in one of the outer seating
positions according to the installation
instructions if access to the third-row seats is
required.
