Introduction The
Occupant Classification System(OCS)cat-
egorizes theperson inthe front -passenger
seat. Depending onthat result, thefront -
passenger frontairbag and front -passenger
knee bagareeither enabled ordeactivated.
The system doesnotdeactivate:
R the side impact airbag
R the headba g
R the Emergenc yTensioning Devices
Requirements To
be classified correctly,the front passenger
must sit:
R with theseat beltfastened correctly
R in an almost upright position withtheir back
agai nstthe seat backrest
R with their feetresting onthe floor, ifpossi-
ble
If the front passenger doesnotobserve these
conditions, OCSmayproduce afalse classifi-
cation, e.g.because thefront passenger:
R transfers theirweight bysupporting them-
selves onavehicle armrest
R sits insuch away that their weight israised
from theseat cushion
If you install achild restraint systemonthe
front -passenger seat,besure toobserve the
correct positioning ofthe child restraint sys-
tem. Never placeobjects underorbehind the child
restraint system,e.g.acushion. Fully
retract theseat cushion length.Theentire
base ofthe child restraint systemmustalways
rest onthe seat cushion ofthe front -
passenger seat.Thebackrest ofthe forward-
facing childrestraint systemmustlieasflat as
possible againstthe backrest ofthe front -
passenger seat.
The child restraint systemmustnottouch the
roof orbe subjected toaload bythe head
restraint. Adjusttheangle ofthe seat backrest
and thehead restraint positionaccordingly.
Only thencanOCS beguara nteed tofunction
