Overview of occupant safety
In this section, you will learn the most
important facts about the restraint system
components of the vehicle.
The restraint system consists of:
• seat belts
• child restraint systems
• LATCH-type (ISOFIX) child seat anchors
Additional protection is provided by:
• SRS (Supplemental Restraint System)
• NECK-PRO head restraints/NECK-PRO luxury head restraints
• PRE-SAFE®
• Air bag system components with:
- PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
- front-passenger seat with Occupant Classification System (OCS)
The different air bag systems work independently of each other. The protective functions of the system work in conjunction with each other. Not all air bags are deployed in an accident.
WARNING
Modifications to or work improperly
conducted on restraint system components
or their wiring, as well as tampering with
interconnected electronic systems, can lead
to the restraint systems no longer functioning
as intended.
Air bags or Emergency Tensioning Devices
(ETDs), for example, could deploy
inadvertently or fail to deploy in accidents
although the deceleration threshold for air
bag deployment is exceeded. Therefore,
never modify the restraint systems. Do not
tamper with electronic components or their
software.
See "Children in the vehicle" for more information on infants and children traveling with you in the vehicle and restraints for infants and children.
