AIR BAGS
Dual driver/passenger air bags and (if equipped) with side air bags affect
the way police equipment can be mounted in police vehicles.
Any surfaces that could come into contact with an air bag, once it has
deployed, must not damage the air bag or alter its deployment path.
Once the air bag has fully deployed, any peripheral equipment surfaces
that could come into contact with the air bag (such as when the air bag
deflates with the loading of an occupant) must not damage the air bag or
alter its deployment path. Sharp edges, corners or protrusions could
damage the nylon air bag material and reduce the effectiveness of the air
bag.
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. Failure to follow this instruction could
result in personal injury.
Dash, tunnel or console-mounted equipment should not be
placed outside of the specified zone. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury.
Do not mount equipment between the side of front seat to the
door trim to block deployment of the side air bag. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in personal injury.
Some approximate dimensions for air bags, at full inflation, are provided
in Figures 1 through 5. These dimensions are somewhat flexible and
represent "free form" deployments without the loading of occupants. The
shaded areas in Figures 6 through 8 represent available police equipment
mounting zones. These zones are shown for police vehicles equipped
with standard bucket seats. While bench seats are optional and still
appropriate for vehicles with certain limited police equipment
requirements, the standard bucket seats are recommended for vehicles
that require maximum available space for police equipment mounting.
The zone dimensions provided in Figures 6 through 8 are approximate
and will vary with the loading of occupants in the seats.
All air bag and equipment mounting zone dimensions are approximate
due to different air bag deployment characteristics.
No equipment will mount between the side of the front seat and the
door trim to block deployment of the side air bag.
