Possible solution
Monitor the 59 indicator lamp on the center console (page 83) and
the multifunction display in the instrument cluster (
page 26) for the following:
With the seat unoccupied and the ignition turned on,
ț the 59 indicator lamp on the center console should illuminate and
remain illuminated, indicating that the OCS (
page 79) has deactivated the air
bag.
ț the message
Front Passenger Airbag Enabled See Operator’s Manual
or the
message
Front Passenger Airbag Disabled See Operator’s Manual
should not
appear in the multifunction display at any time the seat is unoccupied. Wait at
least 60 seconds for the system to complete the necessary check cycles and to
make sure neither message appears in the multifunction display.
If above conditions are met, you can occupy the front passenger seat again.
Depending on the front passenger classification sensed by the OCS (
page 79),
the 59 indicator lamp will remain illuminated or go out.
If above conditions are not met, the system is not working properly. Have the system
checked as soon as possible by an authorized Mercedes-Benz Light Truck Center.
Warning! G
If the 59 indicator lamp
remains illuminated with an adult occupant
on the front passenger seat even after per-
forming the above corrective steps, do not
have any passenger use the front passenger
seat until the system has been repaired.
