Mercedes-Benz GL-Class: SRS warning lamps
SRS functions are checked regularly when you switch on the ignition and when the engine is running. Therefore, malfunctions can be detected in good time.
The SRS warning lamp in the
instrument
cluster lights up when the ignition is switched on. It goes out no later than a
few seconds
after the engine is started.
The SRS components are in operational
readiness when the SRS warning lamp
is not lit while the engine is running .
WARNING
The SRS self-check has detected a
malfunction if the SRS
warning lamp:
• does not come on at all
• fails to go out approximately 4
seconds
after the engine was started
• comes on after the engine was
started or
while driving
For your safety, Mercedes-Benz strongly
recommends that you have the system
checked as soon as possible at an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center. Otherwise the SRS
may not be activated when it is needed in an
accident, which could result in serious or fatal
injury. The SRS might also deploy
unexpectedly and unnecessarily which could
also result in injury.
In addition, improper work on the SRS creates
a risk of rendering the SRS inoperative or
causing unintended air bag deployment. Work
on the SRS must therefore only be performed
by qualified technicians. Contact an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
If it is necessary to modify an air bag system
to accommodate a person with disabilities,
contact an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center

Assistance Center at 1-800-FOR-MERCedes
