Front air bags
Driver's air bag

inform you about the status of the front-
passenger front air bag (Y page 43).
Front-passenger front air bag 0044will only

R the system, based on the OCS weight sen-
sor readings, detects that the front-
passenger seat is occupied (Y page 51).
The PASSENGER AIR BAG ON indicator

offer additional thigh, knee and lower leg pro-
tection for the occupants in the front seats.

WARNING
Unsuitable seat covers could restrict or even
prevent the deployment of the air bags inte-
grated into the seats. Consequently, the air
bags cannot protect vehicle occupants as
they are designed to do. In addition, the func- tion of the Occupant Classification System
(OCS) could be restricted. This poses an
increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.
You should only use seat covers that have
been approved for the respective seat by
Mercedes-Benz. Front side impact air bags
0043and rear side
impact air bags 0044deploy next to the outer
bolster of the seat backrest.
When deployed, the side impact air bag offers additional thorax protection. It also offers
additional pelvis protection for occupants in
the front seats. However, it does not protect
the:
R head
R neck
R arms 50
