injury or danger to life. Make sure that the
front passenger keeps his or her feet in the
footwell.
Functional requirements
To enable accurate recognition of the occupied
seat surface:
▷ Do not attach covers, cushions, ball mats
or other items to the front passenger seat
unless they are specifically determined to
be safe for use on the front passenger seat.
▷ Do not place objects under the seat that
can press against the seat from below.
▷ Do not place any electronic devices on the
front passenger seat if a child restraint sys-
tem is to be installed on it.
▷ No moisture in or on the seat.
Indicator light for the front
passenger airbags
The indicator light for the front-seat passenger
airbag in the headliner indicates the operating
state of the front-seat passenger airbag.
The light indicates whether the airbags are ei-
ther activated or deactivated.
After drive-ready state is switched on, the light
shortly illuminates and then indicates whether
the airbags are either activated or deactivated.
▷ The indicator light illuminates
when a child is properly
seated in a child restraint
system or when the seat is
empty. The airbags on the
passenger's side are not ac-
tivated.
▷ The indicator light does not illuminate
when, for instance, a correctly seated per-
son of sufficient size is detected on the
seat. The airbags on the passenger's side
are activated.

Fault of the automatic deactivation
system
When transporting older children and adults,
the front passenger airbags may be deacti-
vated in certain seat positions. In this case, the
indicator light for the front passenger airbags
illuminates.
In this case, change the seat position so that
the front passenger airbags are activated and
the indicator light goes out.
If it is not possible to activate the airbags, have
the person sit in the rear seat.
Detected child restraint systems
The system generally detects children seated
in a child restraint system, particularly in child
restraint systems required by NHTSA at the
point in time when the vehicle was manufac-
tured. After installing a child restraint system,
make sure that the indicator light for the front
passenger airbags illuminates. This indicates
that the child restraint system has been de-
tected and the front passenger airbags are not
activated.
