How do you deactivate the passenger side airbag in Mercedes cars?

Model: Mercedes Classe E W214 - Years 2023-2026
Part: Airbag

In response to the question at hand, we refer to the latest generation Mercedes cars, such as the E-Class shown in the video uploaded here. It is not possible to manually deactivate the passenger side airbag, there is no selector to turn or button to press, it does not happen as in the past, but everything is managed electronically and automatically by the car, which, based on the weight detected by the seat sensor, if classified as very low, in the case it is occupied by a child's car seat, considers deactivation appropriate. In short, there is no need to remember to activate and deactivate it every time.

How to change the time on a Toyota Yaris

In this video we see how to change the time on a Toyota Yaris, specifically when it comes to switching from daylight saving time to standard time and vice versa. We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
