WARNING
The brake system continues to function normally, but without the
functions listed above. The wheels could therefore lock if you brake
hard, for example.
This greatly impairs steerability and braking. The braking distance can
increase in emergency braking situations.
If ESP
®
is not operational, ESP
®
will not stabilise the vehicle.
There is an increased risk of skidding and accidents.

Drive on with care.

The front-passenger front airbag is disabled during the journey even
though an adult or a person with a corresponding build is occupying
the co-driver's seat.
If additional forces are applied to the seat or the co-driver is not sitting
on the seat cushion properly, the weight the system detects may be
too low.
G
WARNING
The front-passenger front airbag does not deploy during an accident.
There is an increased risk of injury.
X
Stop the vehicle immediately, in accordance with the traffic condi-
tions.
X
Secure the vehicle against rolling away (
Y
page 104).
X
Switch off the ignition.
X
The co-driver must get out of the vehicle.
X
Make sure that no objects are trapped by the co-driver's seat.
The system might otherwise detect too low a weight and interpret
the vehicle occupant's weight on the co-driver's seat as lower than
it actually is.
X
Make sure that the co-driver's seat is unoccupied, close the co-
driver's door and switch on the ignition.
X
Observe the PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp in the centre
console and the display messages and check the following:
Seat unoccupied and ignition switched on:

uously

bag deactivation system has disabled the front-passenger front air-
bag.
