PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp:
indicates whether the front-passenger front air
bag is disabled.
XTurn the SmartKey to position 1or 2in the
ignition lock, or in vehicles with KEYLESS-GO, press the start/stop button once or twice.
The system carries out a self-diagnosis test.
The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
must light up for about six seconds.
The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
then shows the status of the front-passenger
front air bag. If the status of the front-passenger
front air bag changes whilst the vehicle is in
motion, an air bag display message may appear
in the instrument cluster (
Ypage 219). Always
observe the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator
lamp when the front-passenger seat is occu-
pied. Make sure that the status of the front-
passenger front air bag is correct before and
during a journey.
If the PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator
lamp:
Rlights up, the front-passenger front air bag is
disabled. It will then not be deployed in the
event of an accident.
Rdoes not light up, the front-passenger front
air bag is enabled. If, in the case of an acci-
dent, all deployment criteria are met, the
front-passenger front air bag is deployed.
GWARNING
If the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator
lamp is lit, the front-passenger front air bag is
disabled. It will not be deployed in the event of
an accident and cannot perform its intended
protective function. A person in the front-
passenger seat could then, for example, come
into contact with the vehicle's interior, espe-
cially if the person is sitting too close to the
dashboard. This poses an increased risk of
injury or even fatal injury.
When the front-passenger seat is occupied,
always ensure that:
Rthe classification of the person in the front- passenger seat is correct and the front-
passenger front air bag is enabled or disa-
bled in accordance with the person in the
front-passenger seat
Rthe front-passenger seat has been moved
back as far back as possible.
Rthe person is seated correctly.
Make sure, both before and during the jour-
ney, that the status of the front-passenger
front air bag is correct.
GWARNING
If you secure a child in a child restraint system on the front-passenger seat and the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp is
off, the front-passenger front air bag can
deploy in the event of an accident. The child
could be struck by the air bag. This poses an
increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Make sure that the front-passenger front air
bag has been disabled. The PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF indicator lamp must be lit.
GWARNING
If you secure a child in a forward-facing child
restraint system on the front-passenger seat
and you position the front-passenger seat too close to the dashboard, the child could, in the
event of an accident:
Rcome into contact with the vehicle's inte-
rior if the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indi-
cator lamp is lit, for example
Rbe struck by the air bag if the PASSENGER
AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp is off
This poses an increased risk of injury or even
fatal injury.
Move the front-passenger seat as far back as
possible. Always make sure that the shoulder
belt strap is correctly routed from the vehicle
belt sash guide to the shoulder belt guide on
the child restraint system. The shoulder belt
strap must be routed forwards and down-
wards from the vehicle belt sash guide. If nec- essary, adjust the vehicle belt sash guide and
the front-passenger seat accordingly. Always
observe the child restraint system manufac-
turer's installation instructions.
