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
