front passenger front air bag is deactivated while driving
even though an adult or someone larger than a small
individual is occupying the front passenger seat. Forces

X
Engage the parking brake.
X
Switch off the ignition.
X
Have the front passenger vacate the seat and exit the
vehicle.
X
Adjust the seat height to a higher position (Y page 78).

Make sure no objects which apply forces to the seat are
present (e.g. objects such as books, briefcases etc. lodged
underneath, behind or around the seat). Such forces may
cause the system to sense that an occupant of a lesser
weight than actually present is on the front passenger seat.
X
Keep the seat unoccupied, close the front passenger door
and switch on the ignition.
Monitor the 04 indicator lamp in the center
console (Y page 44) and the multifunction display in the

the OCS (Y page 41) has deactivated the front passenger
front air bag.
R
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, the 04
indicator lamp will remain illuminated or go out.
If above conditions are not met, the system is not working
properly. Have the system checked at an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center as soon as possible.
