Problems with the occupant classification system
Problem | Possible causes/consequences and Solutions |
The
indicator lamp illuminates and remains illuminated. The person on the front-passenger seat: • has the weight of a typical adult • has been determined by the system not to be a child. |
The OCS is malfunctioning. Have the OCS checked as soon as possible at an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center. Observe the additional display messages in the multifunction display. |
WARNING
If the indicator lamp
illuminates and remains illuminated when the weight of a
typical adult or someone larger than a small individual has been detected on the
passenger seat,
the system then determines the occupant cannot be a child. Do not allow any
occupant to use
the passenger seat until the system has been repaired.
Problem | Possible causes/consequences and Solutions |
The indicator lamp does
not illuminate and/or does not remain illuminated. The front-passenger seat is: • unoccupied • occupied with a weight up to or less than a typical 12-month-old child in a standard child restraint system |
The OCS is malfunctioning. Make sure there is nothing between the seat cushion and the child seat. Check the installation of the child restraint system. Make sure that no objects are applying additional weight onto the seat. If the indicator lamp does not illuminate, have the OCS checked as soon as possible at an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center. Do not transport a child on the frontpassenger seat as long as the OCS is not functioning. Observe the additional display messages in the multifunction display. |
WARNING
If the indicator lamp does
not illuminate or remains out with the weight of a
typical 12-month-old child in a standard child restraint or less, or is
unoccupied, on the frontpassenger
seat, do not transport a child on the front-passenger seat until the system has
been
repaired.
