When the vehicle is switched on, a self-test is per-
formed during which the two PASSENGER AIR

neously.
The status of the front passenger air bag is dis-
played via the PASSENGER AIR BAG indicator
lamps after the self-test:
ON is lit: the front passenger air bag may
R
deploy during an accident.
The indicator lamp goes out after 60 seconds.
ON and OFF are not lit: the front passenger air
R
bag may deploy during an accident.
OFF is lit: the front passenger air bag is disa-
R
bled. It will then not be deployed in the event
of an accident.
If the PASSENGER AIR BAG ON indicator lamp is
off, only the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator
lamp shows the status of the front passenger air
bag. The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
may be lit continuously or be off.
If the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
and the 6 restraint system warning lamp light
up simultaneously, the front passenger seat may
not be used. Also in this case, do not fit a child
restraint system to the front passenger seat. Have
