Activating the front passenger
airbags
1. Insert the key and press inwards where nec‐
essary.
2. While the key is pressed inwards, turn it to
the ON position as far as it will go. Once the
stop position has been reached, remove the
key.
3. Make sure that the key switch is in the end
position so that the airbags are activated.
The front passenger airbags are reactivated and
can deploy correctly if the need arises.
Indicator lamp for front
passenger airbags
The indicator lamp for the front passenger air‐
bags in the roof lining shows the operating status
of the front passenger airbags.
After switching on the drive-ready state, the light
illuminates briefly and then shows whether the
airbags are activated or deactivated.
Display Function
If the front passenger airbag is
activated, the indicator lamp illu‐
minates for a short period and
then extinguishes.
When front passenger airbags
are deactivated, the indicator
lamp remains illuminated.
Active pedestrian
protection
Principle
The active pedestrian protection system raises
the bonnet if the vehicle's front end collides with
a pedestrian. Sensors underneath the bumper
are used for detection.
General
When triggered, the pedestrian protection sys‐
tem creates deformation space underneath the
bonnet in readiness for the subsequenthead im‐
pact.
Safety notes
WARNING
The system may trigger inadvertently if contact
is made with individual components of the
hinges and bonnet locks. There is a danger of
injury or damage to property. Do not touch indi‐
vidual components of the hinges and bonnet
locks.
WARNING
Modifications to the pedestrian protection sys‐
tem can lead to a failure, a malfunction or acci‐
dental triggering of the pedestrian protection
system. There is a danger of injury or even
death. Do not modify the pedestrian protection
system, its individual components or its wiring.
Do not dismantle the system.
WARNING
Work carried out incorrectly can lead to a fail‐
ure, a malfunction or accidental triggering of the
system. If there is a malfunction, the system
might not trigger as intended in an accident,
even if the impact is of the appropriate severity.
