Seat belts (Mercedes-Benz E-Class W124)

Seat belts are an effective means of protecting the driver and passengers from the serious consequences of a road accident.

Seat belts are installed on each seat of the car.

Fastening seat belts

To fasten the seat belts, insert the tongue into the buckle until it clicks, being careful not to twist the seat belt.

Do not use a seat belt to restrain a child sitting on a passenger's lap.

To unfasten the seat belt, press button 3 to open the lock.

When fastening the front seat belt, position the belt so that the top of the belt passes over the middle of the shoulder.





To adjust the position of the seat belt, use button 4 of the retractor.

Caution! To ensure trouble-free operation of the tensioning mechanism, keep the seat belts clean. If the buckles or tensioning mechanism are damaged, replace the belts.

Caution: Belts that have been severely stretched in an accident must be replaced.

Attention! When exposed to sunlight and chemicals, the belt tape loses strength. When the original color is lost (fading) the belt should be replaced.

Caution! Wash the belts only in a mild soap solution. Dry the belts thoroughly before retracting them.

Warning! Do not treat the belt webbing with chemicals, tint or discolor them. The compounds will weaken the belt. A belt that is discolored or weakened by chemicals must be replaced.

Front seat belt tensioner mechanism

The front seat belt tensioner is designed to instantly remove slack from the seat belt in the event of a sudden frontal collision. The tensioner is automatically activated in frontal collisions above a certain force. Collisions of lesser force, including side and rear impacts, will not trigger the tensioner.
