Air Bag Warning Light
The ORC monitors the readiness of the
electronic parts of the air bag system
whenever the ignition switch is in the
START or ON/RUN position. If the ignition
switch is in the OFF position or in the ACC
position, the air bag system is not on and
the air bags will not inflate.
The ORC contains a backup power supply
system that may deploy the air bag
system even if the battery loses power or
it becomes disconnected prior to
deployment.
The ORC turns on the Air Bag Warning
Light in the instrument panel for
approximately four to eight seconds for a
self-check when the ignition switch is
first in the ON/RUN position. After the
self-check, the Air Bag Warning Light will
turn off. If the ORC detects a malfunction
in any part of the system, it turns on the
Air Bag Warning Light, either
momentarily or continuously. A single
chime will sound to alert you if the light
comes on again after initial startup.
The ORC also includes diagnostics that
will illuminate the instrument panel Air
Bag Warning Light if a malfunction is
detected that could affect the air bag
system. The diagnostics also record the
nature of the malfunction. While the air
bag system is designed to be
maintenance free, if any of the followingoccurs, have an authorized dealer service
the air bag system immediately.
The Air Bag Warning Light does not
come on during the four to eight seconds
when the ignition switch is first in the
ON/RUN position.
The Air Bag Warning Light remains on
after the four to eight-second interval.
The Air Bag Warning Light comes on
intermittently or remains on while
driving.
Note: If the speedometer, tachometer,
or any engine related gauges are not
working, the Occupant Restraint
Controller (ORC) may also be disabled. In
this condition the air bags may not be
ready to inflate for your protection. Have
an authorized dealer service the air bag
system immediately.
Warning!
Ignoring the Air Bag Warning Light in your
instrument panel could mean you won’t have
the air bag system to protect you in a
collision. If the light does not come on as a
bulb check when the ignition is first turned
on, stays on after you start the vehicle, or if
it comes on as you drive, have an authorized
dealer service the air bag system
immediately.
Redundant Air Bag Warning Light
If a fault with the Air Bag Warning Light is
detected, which could affect the
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS),
the Redundant Air Bag Warning Light will
illuminate on the instrument panel. The
Redundant Air Bag Warning Light will
stay on until the fault is cleared. In
addition, a single chime will sound to alert
you that the Redundant Air Bag Warning
Light has come on and a fault has been
detected. If the Redundant Air Bag
Warning Light comes on intermittently or
remains on while driving have an
authorized dealer service the vehicle
immediately. For additional information
regarding the Redundant Air Bag Warning
Light refer to “Getting To Know Your
Instrument Panel” section of this manual.

Possible Reasons The Engine Does Not
Autostop
For higher comfort and increased safety,
and to reduce emissions, there are
certain conditions where the engine will
not autostop despite the system being
active, such as:
Engine still cold.
Especially cold outside temperature.
Battery not sufficiently charged.
Driver's door not shut.
Driver's seat belt not fastened.
Reverse gear engaged (e.g. for parking
maneuvers).
With the automatic climate control
active, an adequate cabin heating or
cooling comfort has not been reached or
with MAX-DEF function active.
During the first period of use, to
initialize the system.
Steering angle beyond threshold.
Engine Restarting Conditions
Due to comfort, emission control, and
safety reasons, the engine can restart
automatically without any action by the
driver, under special conditions, such as:
Battery not sufficiently charged.
Reduced braking system vacuum (e.g.
if the brake pedal is pressed repeatedly).
Vehicle moving (e.g. when driving on
roads with a grade).
Engine stopping by the Stop/Start
system for more than approx. three
minutes.
With the automatic climate control
active, an adjustment in cabin heating or
cooling is made or with MAX-DEF
function active.
Safety Functions
When the engine is stopped through the
Stop/Start system, if the driver releases
their seat belt, opens the driver's or
passenger's door, or opens the hood from
inside the vehicle, the engine can be
restarted only by using the ignition.
This condition is indicated to the driver
both through a buzzer and a message on
the instrument cluster display.
Energy Saving Function
If the driver does not carry out any action
for more than three minutes after the
automatic engine restart, the Start/Stop
system will switch off the engine in order
to prevent fuel consumption.
In this situation, the engine can only be
restarted using the ignition device.
Note: It is possible to keep the engine
running by deactivating the system.
Irregular Operation
In the event of malfunction, the
Stop/Start system is deactivated.
For failure indications, refer to "Warning
Lights and Messages" paragraph in
"Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel".
Vehicle Inactivity
In the event of vehicle inactivity (or if the
battery is replaced), special attention
must be paid to the disconnection of the
battery power supply.
Proceed as follows:
Remove connector from socket to
disconnect sensor (battery status
monitoring) installed on the negative pole
of the battery. This sensor should never
be disconnected from the pole except if
the battery is replaced.
