Air Bag Indicator Lamp

Can someone tell me what the air bag indicator lamp and on/off should do when someone is sitting there? I'm confused by the manual as it is conflicting what I am seeing. Should they remain for the entire drive? Thanks

If someone is sitting in the seat and the light comes on and stay on---that is not good---if the light turns off while the passenger is sitting in the seat, that is good,but if comes on after sitting in the seat, that is not good!!

my lamp is staying on the ON setting. Essentially it looks like this photo, but instead of off it is ON. Should it be staying on the entire time? What does this mean if it is staying on?

You didn't say if someone was sitting on the passenger seat when the airbag light was ON?

I believe mine goes out when someone is in the passenger seat.

On a different topic, what is that button beside the left seat heater button? With the one yellow light on.

I don't think so because why doesn't the other side have one too? Plus it doesn't look like any seat ventilator button I've seen before. But I've never really had any time in the bigger SUV's from MB to look around. (Now I know I've been wrong before because my wife has told me.)
But also then I've never seen the next button (E->S->M) on the dash either.
(Sorry to change the subject OP)

Mine is consistently on for 'passenger airbag off' when the seat is empty. It turns 'on' shortly for 'passenger airbag on' after people fits in the seat, then disappears soon.
