2013 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class SUV Body Structure

Here’s a question for you, do know what “acoustic side windows” really means?  If your a regular reader of the blog, you should quickly translate acoustic front windscreen and optional acoustic side windows made with multilayer glass technology to provide great noise insulation to laminated side glass.  The image of the 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL below id from the Rescue card for passenger cars.  Where’s the battery?  How many batteries do you see? See both of them?  labeled 1 and 2.  Also take note of the suggested cut points.  Mercedes-Benz provides extrication cut points that are away from airbag inflators and often are a place on the vehicle where the body structure is weaker.

Guidelines for rescue services are available in various languages as downloadable PDF files.  Mercedes-Benz updates the guides below so the information in it is current to assist rescuers during an extrication.  Here’s a great company drill or something to read through with your crew.
