Immobiliser
The system is part of the ignition
switch and checks whether the
vehicle is allowed to be started with
the key being used.
The immobiliser is activated
automatically after the key has been
removed from the ignition switch and
also if the key is left in the ignition
switch when the engine is turned off.
If the engine cannot be started, switch off the ignition and remove key, wait
approx. 2 seconds and then repeat
the start attempt. If start attempt is
unsuccessful, attempt to start the
engine using the spare key and seek
the assistance of a workshop.

an aspherical area and reduces blind spots. The shape of the mirror makes
objects appear smaller, which will
affect the ability to estimate
distances.

Seats, restraints65Additionally there is a warning labelon the side of the instrument panel,
visible when the front passenger door
is open.
The front airbag system is triggered in
the event of an accident of a certain
severity. The ignition must be
switched on.
The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby reducing the risk of
injury to the upper body and head of
the front seat occupants
considerably.9 Warning
Optimum protection is only
provided when the seat is in the
proper position.
Seat position  3 48.
Keep the area in which the airbag
inflates clear of obstructions.
Fasten the seat belt correctly and
engage securely. Only then is the
airbag able to protect.
Side airbag system
The side airbag system consists of an
airbag in each front seat backrest.
This can be identified by the word
AIRBAG .
The side airbag system is triggered in the event of an accident of a certain
severity. The ignition must be
switched on.
The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby reducing the risk of
injury to the upper body and pelvis in
the event of a side-on collision
considerably.
9 Warning
Keep the area in which the airbag
inflates clear of obstructions.
Note
Only use protective seat covers that have been approved for the vehicle.Be careful not to cover the airbags.
Airbag deactivation
Front airbag and side airbag systems for the front passenger seat must be
deactivated if a child restraint system
is to be fitted on this seat, in
accordance with the instructions in
the child restraint installation location
tables  3 70.
The belt pretensioners and all driver
airbag systems will remain active.

66Seats, restraints
The front passenger airbag system
can be deactivated via a switch on the
side of the instrument panel.
With the ignition off, open the front
door, push switch in and rotate
anticlockwise to the  OFF position.
Front passenger seat airbags are
deactivated and will not inflate in the event of a collision. Control indicator
W  3  100 illuminates continuously in
the instrument panel and a
corresponding message appears in
the Driver Information Centre  3 106.
A child restraint system can be
installed in accordance with the
installation locations chart  3 70. An
adult must not occupy the front
passenger seat.
9 Danger
Deactivate passenger airbag only
in combination with the use of a
child restraint system, subject to
the instructions and restrictions in
the table  3 70.
Otherwise, there is a risk of fatal
injury for a person occupying a
seat with a deactivated front
passenger airbag.
As long as control indicator  W is not
illuminated, the airbag systems for the front passenger seat will inflate in the event of a collision.
If control indicator  A remains
illuminated together with  v, this
indicates a fault within the system.
The switch position may have been
changed inadvertently with the
ignition on. Turn ignition off and on
again and reset the switch position. If
A  and  v still remain illuminated,
seek the assistance of a workshop.
Change status only when the vehicle
