The front-passenger front airbag is enabled during the journey
although:
R
a child, a small adult or an object weighing less than the system
weight threshold is located on the front-passenger seat
or
R
the front-passenger seat is not occupied
The system may detect objects or forces that are placing additional
weight on the seat.
G
WARNING
The front-passenger front airbag may deploy unintentionally.
This poses an increased risk of injury.
X
Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible, paying attention to road
and traffic conditions.
X
Secure the vehicle against rolling away (
Y
page 166).
X
Switch the ignition off.
X
Open the front-passenger door.
X
Remove the child and child seat from the front-passenger seat.
X
Make sure that no objects are present that are applying additional
weight to the seat.
The system might otherwise detect the additional weight and inter-
pret the vehicle seat occupant's weight as greater than it actually is.
X
Make sure that the seat is unoccupied, close the front-passenger
door and switch on the ignition.
X
Observe the PASSENGER AIR BAG indicator lamps on the centre
console and the multifunction display and check the following:
Seat unoccupied and ignition switched on:
R
a self-diagnosis is carried out. The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF and
PASSENGER AIR BAG ON indicator lamps light up simultaneously
for approximately six seconds
R
the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp must then light up
and remain lit after the self-diagnosis. If the indicator lamp is on,
the automatic front-passenger front airbag deactivation system
has disabled the front-passenger front airbag (

display messages must not be shown in the multifunction display
X
Wait for a period of at least 60 seconds until the necessary system
checks have been completed.
X
Make sure that the display messages do not appear on the multi-
function display.
If these conditions are met, the front-passenger seat can be occupied
again. Whether the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF or ON indicator lamp
remains lit or goes out depends on how the automatic front-passenger
front airbag deactivation system classifies the vehicle occupant.
If the conditions are not met, the system is not operating correctly.

Consult a qualified specialist workshop immediately.
