Mercedes-Benz GLC : Status of the front passenger front airbag / Self-test of automatic front passenger airbag shutoff
When the ignition is switched on, a self-test is
performed during which the two PASSENGER
AIR BAG ON and OFF indicator lamps light up
simultaneously.
The status of the front passenger airbag is displayed
via the PASSENGER AIR BAG indicator
lamps after the self-test:
If the PASSENGER AIR BAG ON indicator lamp is
off, only the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator
lamp shows the status of the front passenger
airbag. The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator
lamp may be lit continuously or be off.
If the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
and the restraint system warning
lamp
light up simultaneously, the front passenger seat
may not be used. Also in this case, do not install
a child restraint system on the front passenger
seat. Have the automatic front passenger airbag
shutoff checked and repaired immediately at a
qualified specialist workshop.
If the front passenger seat is occupied, ensure,
both before and during the journey, that the status
of the front passenger airbag is correct for
the current situation...
