Mercedes-Benz GLC : General notes / Sport Utility Vehicle
WARNING Risk of accident when the
center of gravity is too high
The vehicle may start to skid and rollover in
the event of sudden steering maneuvers
and/or when the vehicle's speed is not adapted
to the road conditions.
Always adapt your speed and driving style to the vehicle's driving characteristics and to the prevailing road and weather conditions.
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover
rate than other types of vehicles.
If this type of vehicle is not driven safely, an accident
can occur, the vehicle can roll over and
occupants can suffer serious or even fatal injuries.
In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is significantly
more likely to die than a person wearing a
seat belt.
You and all vehicle occupants should always
wear your seat belts.
NOTE Plug-in hybrid
Observe the notes in the Supplement. You could otherwise fail to recognize dangers.
Mercedes-Benz AG cannot, despite carefully
developing vehicle systems, completely rule out
the interaction of vehicle systems with electronic
medical aids such as cardiac pacemakers...
