20 SAFETY
OCCUPANT RESTRAINTS
Driver/passenger air bags affect the way police equipment
can be safely mounted in police vehicles.
Any surface that could come into contact with an air bag,
once it has been deployed, must not damage the air bag or
alter its deployment path.
The addition of the supplemental equipment (such as
radios, weapons, mounting brackets, cage, etc.), must be
installed such that it will not interfere or come in contact
with a deploying air bag. Air bag deployment zones are
described below. Sharp edges, corners or protrusions on
supplemental equipment could damage the nylon air bag
material and reduce the effectiveness of the air bag during
a deployment.
WARNING!
• Vehicles equipped with left and right Supplemental
Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains (SABICs) must use
police cages which have been approved by the
equipment manufacturer for use in the vehicle.
• The area where the Supplemental Side Air Bag
Inflatable Curtains (SABICs) is located should re-
main free from any obstructions.
• If your vehicle is equipped with left and right
Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains
(SABICs), care must be taken when installing any
type of roof equipment. Drilling and installation of
fasteners or other equipment that may interfere with
the Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains
(SABICs) and air bag wiring harness is not permit-
ted. Furthermore, make sure no equipment or fasten-
ers are located in the air bag deployment zone.
• Do not place objects or mount equipment in front of
the air bag module cover, or in front of the seat areas
that may come in contact with a deploying air bag.
• Dash, tunnel or console mounted equipment should
not be placed outside of the specified zone.
• Failure to follow these instructions could result in
personal injury.
