where the system suppresses deployment
of the front passenger front air bag even
though the impact met the criteria and was
of sufficient severity to deploy the driver
front air bag
completely eliminate this risk is to never
place a child in a rear-facing child restraint
in the front seat. We therefore strongly
recommend that you always place a child
in a rear-facing child restraint in a backseat.
Rthat the seat was occupied by a small
individual (such as a young teenager or a
small adult) or a child who weighs more
than the weight of a typical 12-month-old
child in a standard child restraint – both of
which are instances where the system may
suppress deployment of the front
passenger front air bag even though the
impact met the criteria and was of
sufficient severity to deploy the driver front
air bag
RIf you must install a rear-facing child
restraint on the front passenger seat
because circumstances require you to do
so, make sure the42
indicator lamp is illuminated, indicating
that the front passenger front air bag is
deactivated. Should the42
indicator lamp not illuminate or go out while
the restraint is installed, please check
installation. Periodically check the
42
indicator lamp while
driving to make sure the42
indicator lamp is illuminated. If the
42
indicator lamp goes out or
remains out, do not transport a child on the
front passenger seat until the system has
been repaired.
A child in a rear-facing child restraint on the
front passenger seat will be seriously
injured or even killed if the front passenger
front air bag inflates.
RIf you have to place a child in a forward-
facing child restraint on the front passenger
seat, move the seat as far back as possible,
use the proper child restraint
recommended for the age, size and weight
of the child, and secure child restraint with
the vehicle’s seat belt according to the child
seat manufacturer’s instructions. For
children larger than the typical 12-month-
old child, the front passenger front air bag
may or may not be activated.
The42 indicator lamp: will be
illuminated, except with the SmartKey
removed from the starter switch or with the
starter switch in position 0.
G Warning!
If the red SRS indicator lamp+ in the
instrument cluster and the42
indicator lamp are lit at the same time, there
is a malfunction in the OCS. The front
passenger front air bag will be deactivated in
this case. Have the system checked as soon
as possible by qualified technicians. Contact
an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
Deployment of the driver front air bag does
not mean that the front passenger front air
bag also should have deployed.
Only have the seat repaired or replaced at an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
The OCS may have determined
Rthat the seat was empty or occupied by the
weight up to or less than that of a typical
12-month-old
child seated in a standard
child restraint – both of which are instances
