WARNING
If you secure a child in a rearward-facing child
restraint system on the front-passenger seat
and the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator
lamp is off, the front-passenger front air bag
may deploy in the event of an accident. The
child could be struck by the air bag. This poses
an increased risk of in ury or even fatal in ury.
Make sure that the front-passenger front air
bag has been disabled. The PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF indicator lamp must be lit.
If the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
stays off, do not install a rearward-facing child
restraint system on the front-passenger seat.
You can find more information on OCS under
Problems with the Occupant Classification Sys-
tem (

WARNING
If you secure a child in a forward-facing child
restraint system on the front-passenger seat
and you position the front-passenger seat too
close to the dashboard, in the event of an
accident, the child could:
come into contact with the vehicle's inte-
R
rior if the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indi-
cator lamp is lit, for example
be struck by the air bag if the PASSENGER
R
AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp is off
This poses an increased risk of in ury or even
fatal in ury.
Move the front-passenger seat as far back as
possible. Always make sure that the shoulder
belt strap is correctly routed from the vehicle
belt guide to the shoulder belt guide on the
child restraint system. The shoulder belt strap
must be routed forwards and downwards
from the vehicle belt guide. Always observe
the child restraint system manufacturer's
installation instructions.
If OCS determines that:
the front-passenger seat is unoccupied, the
R
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
lights up after the system self-test and
remains lit. This indicates that the front-
passenger front air bag is deactivated.
the front-passenger seat is occupied by a
R
child of up to twelve months old, in a standard
child restraint system, the PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF indicator lamp lights up after the
system self-test and remains lit. This indi-
cates that the front-passenger front air bag is
deactivated.
But even in the case of a twelve-month-old
child, in a standard child restraint system, the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp can
go out after the system self-test. This indi-
cates that the front-passenger front air bag is
activated. The result of the classification is
dependent on, among other factors, the child
restraint system and the child's stature. Make
sure that the conditions for a correct classi-
fication are met. If the PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF indicator lamp remains off, do not install
a child restraint system on the front-
passenger seat.
the front-passenger seat is occupied by a per-
R
son with a smaller build (e.g. a teenager or
small adult), the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF
indicator lamp lights up and remains lit after
the system self-test depending on the result
of the classification or, alternatively, goes out.
if the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator
-
lamp is off, move the front-passenger seat
as far back as possible.
if the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator
-
lamp is lit, a person of smaller stature
should not use the front-passenger seat.
the front-passenger seat is occupied by an
R
adult or a person of adult stature, the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
goes out after the system self-test. This indi-
cates that the front-passenger front air bag is
activated.
If children are traveling in the vehicle, be sure to
observe the notes on Children in the vehicle
(
page 2).
