There is a fault in the system if the warning light does not go out or comes
on or flashes while driving
⇒. This also applies if the warning light
does not come on after the ignition is switched on.
The following text will be displayed in the information display*:
AIRBAG FAULT
The functionality of the airbag system is also monitored electronically,
when one airbag has been switched off.
The passenger front airbag and also possibly the passenger side
airbag which have been switched off using the vehicle system tester:
•The warning light  lights up for 3 seconds after switching on the igni-
tion and then flashes for 12 seconds afterwards in 2 second intervals.

⇒ page 164.
WARNING
Have the airbag system checked immediately by a specialist
garage if a fault exists. Otherwise, there is a risk of the airbag not
being activated in the event of an accident.
Note
Further information about switching off airbags ⇒page 163, “Deactivating
an airbag”.
Diesel particle filter* (diesel engine)
In the diesel particle filter the resulting soot particles are
collected and burnt during the combustion of diesel fuel.
Code 7GG on the vehicle data sticker ⇒fig. 16 indicates that
your vehicle is equipped with a diesel particle filter. The vehicle
data sticker ⇒page 263, fig. 195 is located on the floor of the
luggage compartment and is also stated in the Service schedule.
The soot particles, which result from the combustion of diesel fuel, are
collected in the diesel particle filter . If the diesel particle filter is added, it
is automatically cleaned during suitable operating conditions. If the engine
control unit detects that the operating conditions for a regeneration
(combustion of deposited soot particles) of the diesel particle fiter are not
optimal, e.g. slow city driving, a warning light in the instrument cluster is
illuminated
.
In order to clean the diesel particle filter, the vehicle should be driven at an
even speed of at least 60 km/h for 15 minutes. The diesel particle filter is
