Getting started Driving If necessary, tighten the lap portion to a snug fit by pulling shoulder portion up. Proper use of seat belts Do not twist the belt when fastening. Adjust seat belt so that the shoulder portion is located as close as possible to the middle of the shoulder (it should not touch the neck or pass under the arm). For this purpose, you can adjust the height of the belt outlet, see below. Position the lap belt as low as possible on your hips (over hip joint) and not across the abdomen. Place the seat backrest in a nearly upright position. Each seat belt should never be used for more than one person at a time. Do not fasten a seat belt around a person and another object at the same time. Check your seat belt during travel to ensure that it is properly positioned. Ensure that the seat belt is always fitted snugly. You should avoid wearing bulky clothing, such as winter coats, when traveling in the vehicle. Warning! Seat belt height adjustment Adjust the height so that the upper part of the belt runs over the middle of the shoulder. G Do not pass belts over sharp edges. They could tear. Do not allow the belt to get caught in the door or in the seat adjustment mechanism. This could damage the belt. Never attempt to make modifications to seat belts. This could impair the effectiveness of the belts. Damaged seat belts or belts that were highly stressed in an accident must be replaced by an authorized Mercedes-Benz Light Truck Center. 1 Button for belt outlet height adjustment 42
