Occupant safety
The side impact air bags and window cur-
tain air bags are deployed:
Occupant Classification System
Furthermore, the occupant weight may ap-
pear to increase or decrease due to
objects hanging on the seat, other passen-
gers pushing on the seat, objects lodged
underneath the seat or stuffed between
seat and middle console or between seat
and door or due to objects applying pres-
sure on the back of the seat. Always make
sure that the seat has clearance in all di-
rections at all times.
The Occupant Classification System (OCS)
automatically turns the front passenger
front air bag on or off based on the classi-
fied occupant weight category determined
by weight sensor readings from the front
passenger seat.

on the impacted side of the vehicle
in impacts exceeding a preset deploy-
ment threshold

independently of the front air bags
In addition, the window curtain air bags 2
are deployed:
i The system does not deactivate the front
passenger side impact air bag, the window cur-
tain air bag and the Emergency Tensioning De-
vice.
ț
in certain vehicle rollovers
i If your seat, including your trim cover and
cushion needs to be serviced in any way, take
the vehicle to an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center.
The side impact air bags and window cur-
tain air bags are not deployed in impacts
which do not exceed the system’s deploy-
ment threshold.
Occupants must sit properly belted in a po-
sition that is as upright as possible with
their back against the seat backrest and
feet on the floor to be correctly classified.
If the occupant’s weight is transferred to
another object in the vehicle (e.g. by lean-
ing on armrests), the OCS may not be able
to properly approximate the occupant’s
weight category.
Only seat accessories approved by
Mercedes-Benz may be used.
Both driver and the front passenger should
always use the 75 indicator
lamp as an indication of whether or not the
front passenger is properly positioned.

Automotive readers have rated 2008 Mercedes-Benz CLS550 CLS63 AMG W219 Owners Manual 5.0 out of 5.0 based on 2 product reviews. This is exactly what I've been looking for and need. Great info in perfect detail and limited pics help as well.
Great having the manual saved on my tablet versus having to get the hard copy from within the vehicle. It's very thorough and complete, much appreciated
