Do not place objects under the seat that

Indicator lamp for the front-seat
passenger airbags
The indicator lamp for the front-seat passen‐
ger airbag in the roofliner indicates the operat‐
ing state of the front-seat passenger airbag.
The lamp indicates whether the airbags are ei‐
ther activated or deactivated.
After drive-ready state is switched on, the
lamp briefly lights up and then indicates
whether the airbags are either activated or de‐
activated.
The indicator lamp lights up
when a child is properly
seated in a child restraint fix‐
ing system or when the seat
is empty. The airbags on the
front passenger side are not
activated.
The indicator lamp does not light up when,
e.g., a correctly seated person of sufficient
size is detected on the seat. The airbags
on the front passenger side are activated.
Detected child seats
The system generally detects children seated
in a child seat, particularly in child seats re‐
quired by NHTSA at the point in time when the
vehicle was manufactured. After installing a
child seat, make sure that the indicator lamp
for the front-seat passenger airbags lights up.
This indicates that the child seat has been de‐
tected and the front-seat passenger airbags
are not activated.
Strength of the driver's and front-seat
passenger airbag
The explosive power that activates driver's/
front passenger's airbags very much depends
on the positions of the driver's/front passeng‐
er's seat.
To maintain the accuracy of this function over
the long term, calibrate the front seats as soon
as a respective message appears on the Con‐
trol Display.
Calibrating the front seats
WARNING
There is a risk of jamming when moving
the seats. There is a risk of injury or risk of
property damage. Make sure that the area of
movement of the seat is clear prior to any ad‐
justment.◀
A corresponding message appears on the
Control Display.
1.
Press the switch and move the respective
seat all the way forward.
2. Press the switch forward again. The seat
still moves forward slightly.
3. Readjust the seat to the desired position.
The calibration procedure is completed when
the message on the Control Display disap‐
pears.
If the message continues to be displayed, re‐
peat the calibration.
If the message does not disappear after a re‐
peat calibration, have the system checked as
soon as possible.
