Vehicles with the automatic front-passenger
front airbag deactivation system: the sidebag on
the front-passenger side deploys under the fol-
lowing conditions:
R
an occupant is detected in the front-
passenger seat or
R
the seat belt buckle tongue is engaged in the
belt buckle of the front-passenger seat
If the belt tongue is engaged in the belt buckle,
the sidebag 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.
Windowbags
Example: windowbag above the front door
Example: windowbag for all seat rows
Windowbags
:
or
;
are integrated in the side
of the roof frame. Windowbags for all seat
rows
;
deploy in the area from the front door
(A-pillar) to the rear side window (D-pillar).
When deployed, the windowbag enhances the
level of protection for the head. However, it does
not protect the chest or arms.
When the restraint system control unit detects a
side impact, the windowbag is deployed on the
side on which the impact occurs.
If the system determines that it can offer addi-
tional protection to that provided by the seat
belt, a windowbag may be deployed in other
accident situations (

Automatic co-driver airbag deactiva-
tion
Introduction
In order to recognise a child restraint system on
the front-passenger seat, the automatic front-
passenger front airbag deactivation system cat-
egorises the person in the front-passenger seat.
Depending on that result, the front-passenger
front airbag is either enabled or disabled. If a
rearward-facing child restraint system is fitted
to the front-passenger seat, the PASSENGER
AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp must light up after
the system self-test and remain lit. The front-
passenger front airbag is disabled.
The system does not disable:
R
the sidebag
R
the windowbag
R
the seat belt tensioner
Make sure that your vehicle is equipped with the
automatic front-passenger front airbag deacti-
vation system (
Y
page 62). If this is not the
case, always install a child restraint system on a
suitable rear seat (
Y
page 63).
If it is absolutely necessary to install a child
restraint system on the front-passenger seat, be
sure to observe the correct positioning of the
child restraint system. Never place objects
under or behind the child restraint system, e.g. a
cushion. The entire base of the child restraint
system must always rest on the seat cushion of
the front-passenger seat. The backrest of a
forward-facing child restraint system must, as
far as possible, rest flat against the backrest of
the front-passenger seat. The child restraint sys-
tem must not touch the roof or be put under
strain by the head restraint. Adjust the angle of
the seat backrest and the head restraint posi-
tion accordingly. Only then is the correct func-
tion of the automatic front-passenger front air-
bag deactivation system guaranteed. Always
observe the information on suitable positioning
of the child restraint system (
