Owner's Manual Owner's Manual The front-passenger front airbag is enabled during the journey
although:
R a child, a small adult or an object weighing less than the system
weight threshold is located on the front-passenger seat
or
R the front-passenger seat is not occupied
The system may detect objects or forces that are adding to the weight
applied to the seat.
G WARNING
The airbag may deploy unintentionally.
This poses an increased risk of injury. X Pull over and stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible, paying
attention to road and traffic conditions.
X Safeguard the vehicle against rolling away (Y page 145).
X Switch the ignition off.
X Open the front-passenger door.
X Remove the child and the child restraint system from the front-
passenger seat.
X Make sure there are no objects applying additional force to the seat.
The system may otherwise detect the additional force and interpret the seat occupant's weight as greater than it actually is.
X Make sure that the seat is unoccupied, close the front-passenger
door and switch on the ignition.
X Observe the PASSENGER AIR BAG indicator lamps in the centre
console and the multifunction display and check the following:
Seat unoccupied and ignition switched on:
R a self-diagnosis takes place. The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF and
PASSENGER AIR BAG ON indicator lamps light up simultaneously
for approximately six seconds
R the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp must light up and
remain on after the self-diagnosis. If the indicator lamp is on, the
automatic front-passenger front airbag deactivation system has
disabled the front-passenger front airbag (Y page 42)

display messages must not be shown in the multifunction display
X Wait for a period of at least 60 seconds until the necessary system
checks have been completed.
X Make sure that the display messages do not appear in the multi-
function display.
If these conditions are met, the front-passenger seat can be occupied again. Whether the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF or ON indicator lamp
remains lit or goes out depends on how the automatic front-passenger front airbag deactivation system classifies the occupant.
If the conditions are not met, the system is not operating correctly.
X Consult a qualified specialist workshop immediately. 200

WARNING
Care products and cleaning agents containing solvents can cause surfaces in the cockpit to
become porous. This could result in plastic
parts breaking away when the airbags are
deployed. There is a danger of injury.
Do not use care products and cleaning agents containing solvents to clean the cockpit.
! Do not affix the following to plastic surfaces:
R stickers
R films
R scented oil bottles or similar items
You could otherwise damage the plastic.
! Do not allow cosmetics, insect repellent or
sunscreen to come in contact with the plastic trim. This maintains the high-quality look of
the surfaces.
X Wipe the plastic trim with a damp, lint-free
cloth, e.g. a microfibre cloth.
X Heavy soiling: use car care and cleaning
products recommended and approved by
Mercedes-Benz.
The surface may change colour temporarily.
Wait until the surface is dry again. 246
