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 |

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. |

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.
