If at the established children's seat with system of an identification of existence of a children's seat the control lamp does not light up, it means that the safety cushion of the forward passenger is not switched off. In this case establish a children's seat on a back seat. Carry out an inspection of system of an automatic identification of existence of a children's seat at the Mercedes-Benz station.
