Mercedes-Benz GL-Class: Adjusting the seats in the second andthird rows
Important safety notes
WARNING
Never travel in a moving vehicle with the seat
backrest in an excessively reclined position as
this can be dangerous. You could slide under
the seat belt in a collision. If you slide under
it, the seat belt would apply force at the
abdomen or neck. This could cause serious or
fatal injuries. The seat backrest and seat belt
provide the best restraint when the wearer is
in a position that is as upright as possible and
the seat belt is properly positioned on the
body.
Your seat belt must be adjusted so that you
can correctly fasten your seat belt.
Never place hands under the seat or near any
moving parts while a seat is being adjusted.
After adjusting the seat, always ensure that
the seat and the backrest are correctly
engaged. The backrest must be in an upright
position.
Test the stability of the latch by pushing and
pulling the backrest. If the seat and backrest
are not correctly latched, the seat could move
forward and the backrest could fold down.
While braking, changing direction, or in an
accident, you could slide out from under the
seat belt. The child seat would no longer be
correctly supported or correctly positioned
and would no longer carry out its intended
function. This could cause serious or fatal
injuries.
