Front Passenger
Airbag Disabled
See Operator's
Manual
The front-passenger air bag is disabled during the journey even
though an adult or a person larger than a certain size is occupying
the front-passenger seat. If additional forces are applied to the
seat, the weight the system detects may be too low.
X
Pull over and stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible, paying
attention to road and traffic conditions.
X
Engage the parking brake.
X
Switch off the ignition.
X
Have the occupant get out of the vehicle.
X
Set the seat higher (Y page 96).
X
Make sure that no objects are exerting force on the seat, e.g.
books, bags, etc. lying under, behind or beside the seat. These
forces may otherwise cause the system to detect too low a
weight and interpret the seat occupant's weight as less than it
actually is.
X
Make sure that the seat is unoccupied and has no objects placed
on it, close the front-passenger door, and switch on the ignition.
Observe the 42(Y page 42) indicator lamps and the
multifunction display and check the following:
Seat unoccupied and ignition switched on:
R
the 42 indicator lamp must light up and remain lit.
When the indicator lamp is on, OCS (Y page 42) has disabled
the front-passenger air bag.
R
the display messages Front Passenger Airbag Enabled
See Operator's Manual or Front Passenger Airbag
Disabled See Operator's Manual cannot appear in the
multifunction display. Wait for a period of at least 60 seconds
until the necessary system checks have been completed and to
make sure that the display messages do not appear in the
multifunction display.
If these conditions are met, the front-passenger seat can be
occupied again. Whether the 42 indicator lamp
remains lit or goes out depends on how OCS classifies the
occupant.
If the conditions are not met, the system is not operating correctly.
X
Visit a qualified specialist workshop immediately.
G
Warning
If the 42 indicator lamp remains lit with an adult occupant on the front-passenger
seat even after performing the above corrective steps, do not have any passenger use the front-
passenger seat until the system has been repaired.
