Self-test Occupant Classification Sys-
tem
After turning the SmartKey in the starter
switch to position
1 or 2 or pressing the
KEYLESS-GO* start/stop button once or
twice, the
59
indicator lamp
(
컄
page 89) located in the center console
illuminates. If an adult occupant is properly
sitting on the front passenger seat and the
system senses the occupant as being an
adult, the
59
indicator lamp
will illuminate and go out after approxi-
mately 6 seconds.
If the seat is not occupied and the system
senses the front passenger seat as being
empty, the
59
indicator lamp
will illuminate and not go out.
For more information, see the “Practical
hints” section (
컄
page 414).

Warning!
G
If the
59
indicator lamp should
not illuminate, the system is not functioning.
You must see an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Light Truck Center before seating any child
on the front passenger seat.
Warning!
G
Never place anything between seat cushion
and child seat (e.g. pillow), since it reduces
the effectiveness of the Occupant Classifi-
cation System. The bottom of the child seat
must make full contact with the passenger
seat cushion. An incorrectly mounted child
seat could cause injuries to the child in case
of an accident, instead of increasing protec-
tion for the child.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for
installation of child seats.
