Deployment of the driver front air bag
does not mean that the front passenger
front air bag also should have de-
ployed.
The Occupant Classification System
(
୴ page 74) may have determined:
ț that the seat was empty or occu-
pied by the weight up to or less than
that of a typical 12-month-old child
seated in a standard child restraint
- both instances where the system
suppresses deployment of the pas-
senger front air bag even though
the impact met the criteria and was
of sufficient severity to deploy the
driver front air bag.
ț that the seat was occupied by a
small individual (such as a young
teenager or a small adult) or a child
weighing more than the weight of a
typical 12-month-old child in a stan-
dard child restraint - instances
where the system may suppress de-
ployment of the passenger front
air bag even though the impact met
the criteria and was of sufficient se-
verity to deploy the driver front
air bag.
Warning! G
If the 1 indicator lamp and the
75 indicator lamp are lit at the
same time, there is a malfunction in the Oc-
cupant Classification System. The front pas-
senger front air bag will be deactivated in
this case.
In order to ensure proper operation of the
air bag system and OCS:
ț Have the system checked as soon as
possible by qualified technicians. Con-
tact an authorized Mercedes-Benz Cen-
ter.
ț Do not place more than 4.4 lbs (2 kg)
into the ruffled storage bag on the back
of the front passenger seat. Otherwise,
the OCS may not be able to properly ap-
proximate the occupant weight catego-
ry.
