Where is the child lock on the Mercedes-Benz C-Class?
2 Answers
The child lock of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class is located on the rear doors, featuring a lever-style switch and utilizing ISOFIX interfaces. How the child lock works: The child safety lock is positioned on the rear doors of the vehicle to prevent the danger of doors being opened from inside while the vehicle is in motion. When this device is activated, even if the electronic central door lock is disengaged, the door remains locked. To open the rear door, it can only be done from the outside using the door handle when the central lock is released. Function: When children are seated in the rear, it prevents active and unaware children from opening the door during the journey, thereby avoiding potential hazards. Introduction to child locks: The car child safety lock, also known as the door lock child safety mechanism, is installed on the rear door locks. To activate it, open the rear door and locate a small lever (safety mechanism) below the lock. Move the lever towards the end with the child icon, then close the door. Once activated, the door cannot be opened from the inside and can only be opened from the outside.
The child lock on the Mercedes-Benz C-Class is located on the side of the rear door, near the door handle where you can see a small switch. It's usually a knob or lever that requires a key or coin to turn. Last time I took my little niece out, I checked it out—once activated, the door can't be opened from the inside, but it still works normally from the outside. Remember, both rear doors have independent switches, so you need to lock both sides. Always check before heading out with kids—it’s too dangerous if they play with the door handle on the highway. Some newer models even allow you to set an electronic child lock via the central control screen, but the mechanical one is still the safest.
