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

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.
