Mercedes-Benz GLC : Safely transporting children in the vehicle / Activating or deactivating the special seat belt retractor
WARNING Risk of injury or death if a seat belt is unfastened while the vehicle is in motion
If the seat belt is released while the vehicle is in motion, the child safety lock is deactivated and the child restraint system is no longer correctly secured. The seat belt is drawn in slightly by the inertia reel and cannot be immediately closed again.
Stop the vehicle immediately in accordance with the traffic conditions.
Activate the special seal belt retractor again and correctly secure the child restraint system.
When enabled, the special seat belt retractor ensures that the seat belts of the front passenger seat and rear seats do not slacken once the child restraint system is secured.
