Warning!
G
In the event that the SRS malfunction indica-
tor lamp lights up while driving, the SRS may
not be operational. For your safety, we
strongly recommend that you visit an autho-
rized Mercedes-Benz Light Truck Center im-
mediately to have the system checked;
otherwise the SRS may not be activated
when needed in an accident, which could re-
sult in serious or fatal injury, or it might de-
ploy unexpectedly and unnecessarily which
could also result in injury.
!
Do not place objects heavier than
20 lbs (9 kg) on the front passenger
seat. This could cause the front airbag
on the front passenger side to deploy in
a crash which exceeds the system's de-
ployment threshold.
