Safety and Security
Occupant safety
In the same crash, the possibility of injury
or death is lessened if you are properly
wearing your seat belt. Airbags can only
protect as they are designed if the occu-
pants are properly wearing their seat belts.
Warning! G
Never ride in a moving vehicle with the
seat backrest in an excessively reclined po-
sition as this can be dangerous. You could
slide under the seat belt in a collision. If
you slide under it, the belt would apply
force at the abdomen or neck. That could
cause serious or even fatal injuries. The
seat backrest and seat belt provide the
best restraint when the wearer is in a near-
ly upright position and the belt is properly
positioned on the body.
Only the reclining seat (in Maybach 62 rear
cabin) can be used in a reclined position
with seat belts properly fastened while the
vehicle is in motion. The reclining seat in
the Maybach 62 rear cabin includes a belt
system and kinematic electronic controls
that are designed to maintain proper sup-
port and restraint-system effectiveness in
all seat settings in the event of a collision
or similar situation.
Keep the door storage compartments
closed while the vehicle is in motion. Fail-
ure to do so may cause the seat belt to
catch at the rear and prevent proper posi-
tioning of the seat belt.
Warning! G
Never let more people ride in the vehicle
than there are seat belts available. Be sure
everyone riding in the vehicle is correctly
restrained with a separate seat belt.
Never use a seat belt for more than one
person at a time.
Warning! G
Damaged seat belts or belts that were
highly stressed in an accident must be re-
placed and their anchoring points must
also be checked.
Only use seat belts which have been ap-
proved for Maybach vehicles.
Do not make any modifications to the seat
belts. This can lead to unintended activa-
tion or to failure.
Do not bleach or dye seat belts as this may
severely weaken them. In a crash, they may
not be able to provide adequate protec-
tion.

technicians. Contact an authorized
