Mercedes-Benz GLC : Status of the front passenger front airbag / Self-test of automatic front passenger airbag shutoff
When the ignition is switched on, a self-test is
performed during which the two PASSENGER
AIR BAG ON and OFF indicator lamps light up
simultaneously.
The status of the front passenger airbag is displayed
via the PASSENGER AIR BAG indicator
lamps after the self-test:
If the PASSENGER AIR BAG ON indicator lamp is
off, only the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator
lamp shows the status of the front passenger
airbag. The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator
lamp may be lit continuously or be off.
If the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
and the
restraint system warning
lamp
light up simultaneously, the front passenger seat
may not be used. Also in this case, do not install
a child restraint system on the front passenger
seat. Have the automatic front passenger airbag
shutoff checked and repaired immediately at a
qualified specialist workshop.
If the front passenger seat is occupied, ensure,
both before and during the journey, that the status
of the front passenger airbag is correct for
the current situation...
Other information:
The automatic front passenger airbag shutoff is
able to detect whether the front passenger seat
is occupied by a person or a child restraint system.
The front passenger airbag is enabled or
disabled accordingly.
WARNING Risk of injury or death due to
objects under the co-driver seat
Objects trapped under the co-driver seat can
interfere with the function of the automatic
co-driver airbag shutoff or damage the system...
When installing a belt-secured child restraint
system on the front passenger seat, always
observe the following:
Observe the notes on rearward-facing and forward-facing child restraint systems on the front passenger seat.
Observe the child restraint system manufacturer's installation and operating instructions...
