wards from the retracted seat-belt extender.
If necessary, adjust the front-passenger seat
accordingly. Always observe the information
about suitable positioning of the child
restraint system in this Owner's Manual as
well as the child restraint system manufac-
turer's installation instructions.
i Ensure that your vehicle is equipped with
automatic child seat recognition for the front-
passenger seat (Y page 52). If this is not the
case, always install a child restraint system on a suitable rear seat (Y page 55).PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
:
shows you whether the front-passenger front
airbag is disabled.
X Turn the key to position 1or 2in the ignition
lock or, on vehicles with KEYLESS-GO, press
the Start/Stop button once or twice.
The system carries out a self-diagnosis.
The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
must light up for approximately six seconds.
If, after the system self-test, the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp:
R lights up , the front-passenger front airbag is
disabled. It will then not be deployed in the
event of an accident.
R is not lit , the sensor system did not detect a
child restraint system with transponder for
automatic child seat recognition. If, in the
case of an accident, all deployment criteria
are met, the front-passenger front airbag is
deployed. G
WARNING
Electronic devices on the front-passenger
seat can affect the function of the automatic
child seat recognition, for example:
R laptop
R mobile phone
R transponder cards such as ski passes or
access passes
The front-passenger front airbag could deploy unintentionally or not function as intended
during an accident. This poses an increased
risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Do not place any of the devices mentioned
above or similar devices on the front-
passenger seat. Be aware of the status of the front-passenger front airbag both before and
during the journey. Child restraint system on the front-
passenger seat
General notes Accident statistics show that children secured
in the rear seats are safer than children secured
in the front seats. For this reason, Mercedes-
Benz strongly advises that you fit a child
restraint system on a rear seat.
Vehicles with automatic child seat recognition
on the co-driver's seat: if it is absolutely neces-
sary to fit a child restraint system to the co-driv- er's seat, always observe the notes on "Auto-
matic child seat recognition on the co-driver's
seat" (Y page 52).
You can thus avoid the risks that could arise as
a result of:
R a child restraint system that is not detected
by the automatic child seat recognition's sen-
sor system
R the unintentional disabling of the co-driver's
front airbag
R the unsuitable positioning of the child
restraint system, e.g. too close to the dash-
board. 52

Please observe the warning notice on the co-
driver's sun visor, see the illustration. G
WARNING
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 airbag can
deploy in the event of an accident. The child
could be struck by the airbag. 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.
NEVER use a rearward-facing child restraint on a seat protected by an ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of
it, DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the CHILD can
occur.
Vehicles without automatic child seat
recognition on the co-driver's seat If the co-driver's seat of your vehicle is not
equipped with automatic child seat recognition,
this is indicated by a special sticker. The sticker is affixed to the side of the dashboard on the co- driver's side. The sticker is visible when you
open the co-driver's door.
The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
lights up briefly when the key is turned to posi-
tion
2in the ignition lock. It has no function,
however, and does not indicate that the co-driv-
er's seat is equipped with automatic child seat
recognition.
If you turn the key to position 2in the ignition
lock, the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF and
PASSENGER AIR BAG ON indicator lamps light
up briefly. They have no function, however, and do not indicate that the co-driver's seat is equip- ped with automatic child seat recognition.
Always fit the rearward-facing restraint system
to a suitable rear seat in this case (Y page 55).
Observe the following information under "Rear-
ward-facing child restraint system" and
"Forward-facing child restraint system" and on
suitable positioning of the child restraint system (Y page 55).
Rearward-facing child restraint system Warning symbol for a rearward-facing child
restraint system
If it is absolutely necessary to fit a rearward-
facing child restraint system to the co-driver's
seat, you must always make sure that the co-
driver's front airbag is deactivated. The co-driv-
er's front airbag is only disabled if the
PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp is lit
continuously (Y page 37).
Always observe the information about suitable
positioning of the child restraint system
(Y page 55) as well as the child restraint sys-
tem manufacturer's installation and operating
instructions. Children in the vehicle
