Roll bar warning lamp
The roll bar warning lamp is located in the roll bar
switch in the center console. Roll bar switch see
page 52.
With the electronic key in steering lock position 2, the
roll bar warning lamp comes on and should go out with
the engine running.
With the engine running and the roll bar lowered, the
warning lamp in the roll bar switch will blink for
approx. 15 seconds. The blinking is reminding you to
raise the roll bar if the rear passenger seats are
occupied.
Note:
Have the roll bar system checked at your authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center as soon as possible.
Warning!
If the warning lamp does not go out after starting
the engine, or if it comes on while driving, then the
roll bar system is not operating properly and may
not activate in an accident. In this case, raise the
roll bar manually (see page 53) before continuing
to drive.
