Seats
Information on folding the rear seat backrest forwards can be found at more.
Depending on the vehicle's equipment, the seat adjustments can be made manually or electrically*.
 | Risk of injury |
|
The seats can be adjusted when the key is removed and a door is open. For this reason, children should never be left unsupervised in the vehicle. They could become trapped by the seats moving out of position.
|
| Risk of accident |
|
Only adjust the driver's seat when the vehicle is stationary. You will otherwise be distracted from the road and traffic conditions and you could lose control of the vehicle as a result of the seat moving. This could cause an accident.
|
| Risk of injury |
|
Make sure that nobody can become trapped as you adjust the seat.
Observe the notes concerning the airbag system.
Secure children as recommended.
|
 | |
|
The head restraints in the front seats are fitted with the NECK-PRO system. For this reason, it is not possible to remove the head restraints from the front seats.
For design reasons, some rear-compartment head restraints cannot be removed more.
Please contact a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre for more information.
