Owner's Manual Owner's Manual The front-passenger front airbag is disabled during the journey
although:
R an adult
or
R a person of the corresponding stature is on the front-passenger seat
If additional forces are applied to the seat, the weight the system
detects may be too low.
G WARNING
The front-passenger front airbag does not deploy during an accident.
This poses an increased risk of injury.
X Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible, paying attention to road
and traffic conditions.
X Secure the vehicle against rolling away (Y page 166).
X Switch the ignition off.
X Have the vehicle occupant on the front-passenger seat step out of
the vehicle.
X Make sure that the seat is unoccupied, close the front-passenger
door and switch on the ignition.
X Observe the PASSENGER AIR BAG indicator lamps on the centre
console and the multifunction display and check the following:
Seat unoccupied and ignition switched on:
R a self-diagnosis is carried out. The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF and
PASSENGER AIR BAG ON indicator lamps light up simultaneously for approximately six seconds
R the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp must then light up
and remain lit after the self-diagnosis. If the indicator lamp is on, the automatic front-passenger front airbag deactivation system
has disabled the front-passenger front airbag (Y page 49)

display messages must not be shown in the multifunction display
X Wait for a period of at least 60 seconds until the necessary system
checks have been completed.
X Make sure that the display messages do not appear on the multi-
function display.
If these conditions are met, the front-passenger seat can be occupied again. Whether the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF or ON indicator lamp
remains lit or goes out depends on how the automatic front-passenger
front airbag deactivation system classifies the vehicle occupant.
If the conditions are not met, the system is not operating correctly.
X Consult a qualified specialist workshop immediately.

although:
R a child, a small adult or an object weighing less than the system
weight threshold is located on the front-passenger seat
or
R the front-passenger seat is not occupied
The system may detect objects or forces that are placing additional
weight on the seat.
