Head bags

Head bags

:

deploy in the area of the side win-

dows at the front.

When deployed, the headbag enhances the level

of protection for the head. However, it does not

protect the:

R

chest

R

arms

In the event of a side impact, the headbag is

deployed on the side on which the impact

occurs.

If the system determines that they can offer

additional protection to that provided by the

seat belt, a headbag may be deployed in other

accident situations (

Y

page 53).

The headbag on the front-passenger side does

not deploy under the following conditions:

R

OCS has detected that the front-passenger

seat is unoccupied.

R

the front-passenger seat belt is not fastened.

If the belt tongue is engaged in the belt buckle,

the headbag on the front-passenger side

deploys if an appropriate accident situation

occurs. In this case, deployment is independent

of whether the front-passenger seat is occupied

or not.

Pelvis air bags

G

WARNING

Unsuitable seat covers could restrict or even

prevent the deployment of the air bags inte-

grated into the seats. Consequently, the air

bags cannot protect vehicle occupants as

they are designed to do. In addition, the func-

tion of the Occupant Classification System

(OCS) could be restricted. This poses an

increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.

You should only use seat covers that have

been approved for the respective seat by

Mercedes-Benz.

Pelvis air bags

:

deploy below next to the outer

seat cushions.

When activated, the pelvis air bag enhances the

level of protection of the vehicle occupants on

the side of the vehicle on which the impact

occurs.

The pelvis air bag is deployed on the side of the

impact.

The pelvis air bag on the front-passenger side

does not deploy under the following conditions:

R

OCS has detected that the front-passenger

seat is unoccupied.

R

the front-passenger seat belt is not fastened.

If the belt tongue is engaged in the belt buckle,

the pelvis air bag on the front-passenger side

deploys if an appropriate accident situation

occurs. In this case, deployment is independent

of whether the front-passenger seat is occupied

or not.

Occupant Classification System

(OCS)

Introduction

The Occupant Classification System (OCS) cat-

egorizes the person in the front-passenger seat.

Depending on that result, the front-passenger

front air bag is either enabled or deactivated.

The system does not deactivate:

R

the side impact air bag

R

the pelvis air bag

R

the front-passenger head bag
