the event of an accident with ahigh rate of
vehicled eceleration. This can affect the Emer-
gency Tensioning Device or air bag ,for exam-

PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp :is
part of the Occupant Classification System
(OCS).
The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
showsy ou the status of the front-passenger
front air bag.
If the PASSENGER AI RBAG OFF indicator
lamp:
Rlights up,t he front-passenge rair bag is deac-
tivated. It wil lnot be deploye dinthe event of
an accident.
Rdoes not light up,t he front-passengerair
bag is activated. If, in the case of an accident,
all deployment criteria are met, the front-
passenger front air bag is deployed. Depending on the personint
he front-passenger
seat, the front-passenge rfront air bag must
either be deactivated or activated; see the fol-
lowing points. You must make sure of this both
before and during ajourney.
RChil dint he chil drestraint system:
whethe rthe front-passenge rair bag is acti-
vated or deactivated depends on the child
restraint system installed, as wel lasthe age
and size of the child .Itisthus essentialt o
comply with the instructions on the “Occu-
pant Classification System (OCS)”
(
Ypag e50) and “Childre ninthe vehicle”
(Ypag e56). Information is als oincluded
here on rearward or forward-facing child
restraint systems on the front-passenger
seat.
RAll other persons: depending on the person
classifie dasoccupying the front-passenger
seat, the front-passenge rair bag must be
activated or deactivated (
Ypag e50). Be
sure to observe the notes on "Sea tbelts"
(
Ypag e44) and "Air bags" (Ypag e47).
Information is als oincluded here on the cor-
rect seating position.
Seat belts
Introduction
Ac orrectly fastened seat beltist he most effec-
tive means of restraining the movement of vehi- cle occupants in the event of an accident or the
vehicler olling over. This reduces the risk of
vehicleo ccupants coming into contact with
parts of the vehiclei nterior or being thrown from
the vehicle. Furthermore ,the seat belth elpsto
keep the vehicleo ccupants in the best position
in relation to the air bag.
The seat belts ystem consists of:
RSeat belts
REmergency Tensioning Devices for the front
seat belts
If the vehicleise quipped withafront air bag,
the seat belts ystem alsoincludes aseat belt
force limiter for the corresponding seat.
If the seat beltisp ulled quickly or suddenly from
the belto utlet, the inertia reel locks. The belt
strap cannot be pulled out further.
Emergency Tensioning Devices tighten the seat belts in an accident, pulling them close against

operation
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp:
shows you whether the front-passenger fronta ir
bag is deactivated .
XTurn the key to position 1or 2in the ignition
lock.
The system will carry out aself-test.
The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
must light up for approximately six seconds.
The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
then shows the status of the front-passenger
fronta ir bag. If the status of the front-passenger
fronta ir bag changes while the vehicle is in
motion ,anair bag display message may appear
in the instrument cluster:
Ron vehicles without steering wheel buttons
(Ypage 190)
Ron vehicles with steering wheel buttons
(Ypage 204)
When the front-passenger seat is occupied,
alwaysp ay attention to the PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF indicator lamp. Make sure the correct
status is displayed for the front-passenger air
bag before and during the journey.
If the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator
lamp:
Rlights up ,the front-passenger air bag is deac-
tivated. It will not be deployed in the event of
an accident.
Rdoes not light up,t he front-passenger air
bag is activated. If, in the case of an accident,
all deployment criteria are met, the front-
passenger fronta ir bag is deployed.
GWARNING
If the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator
lamp is lit, the front-passenger fronta ir bag is
disabled. It will not be deployed in the event of
an accidenta nd cannot perform its intended
protective function .Aperson 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
injur yore ven fatal injury.
When the front-passenger seat is occupied,
alwayse nsure that:
Rthe classification of the person in the front-
passenger seat is correct and the front-
passenger fronta ir 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
fronta ir bag is correct.
GWARNING
If you secure achild in achild restraint system
on the front-passenger seat and the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp is
off, the front-passenger fronta ir bag can
deploy in the event of an accident. The child
could be struc kbythe air bag. This poses an
increased risk of injur yoreven fatal injury.
Make sure that the front-passenger fronta ir
bag has been disabled. The PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF indicator lamp must be lit.
GWARNING
If you secure achild in aforward-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:

in the front seats. For this reason, Mercedes-
Benz stronglya dvise sthat yo uinstall achild
restraint system on arears eat. Children are
generally better protected there.
If ac hildy ounge rthan twelve years and under
