MODEL 216.3, 221.0 /1 as of 1.6.07 except CODE (494) USA version except CODE (U18) Automatic child seat recognition (ACSR) up to Model Year 8 

Function 

The seat occupied recognition determines the occupancy status of the front passenger seat via the foil pressure sensors that are integrated in the front passenger seat occupied recognition system (B41/1) and relays this information to the restraint systems control unit (N2/7).

In vehicles up to 31.5.07 the occupancy status is evaluated by the restraint systems control unit in order to decide whether to deploy the relevant restraint equipment.

In vehicles as of 1.6.07 the information about the front passenger seat occupancy status is only used for the seat belt reminder warning.

Optical status indication 

The automatic child seat recognition airbag OFF indicator lamp (S6/2e1) in the cockpit switch group (S6/2) is always switched on for a short time with circuit 15 ON (lamp check). Actuation is carried out via the upper control panel LIN by the upper control panel control unit (N72/1)

If a front passenger seat is detected as being unoccupied, the automatic child seat recognition airbag OFF indicator lamp is switched off.

In vehicles as of 1.6.07 the automatic child seat recognition airbag OFF indicator lamp is only actuated with circuit 15 On for 4 seconds for function testing. It has no other functionality.
