Self-test BabySmart without special
child seat installed
After turning the SmartKey in the starter
switch to position 1 or 2,
the 56 indicator lamp comes on
for approximately 6 seconds and then
goes out.
If the 56 indicator lamp should not
come on or is continuously lit, the system
is not functioning. You must see an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center before
seating any child on the front passenger
seat.
For more information, see "Practical hints"
( page 357).
Warning!
TM
The BabySmart air bag deactivation sys-
tem will ONLY work with a special child seat
designed to operate with it. It will not work
with child seats which are not BabySmart
compatible.
Never place anything between seat cushion
and child seat (e.g. pillow), since it reduces
the effectiveness of the deactivation sys-
tem. The bottom of the child seat must
make full contact with the passenger seat
cushion. An incorrectly mounted child seat
could cause injuries to the child in case of an
accident, instead of protecting the child.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for
installation of special child seats.
