Child Restraints - Chrysler 200 2015 User Manual

• The SABICs and SABs ("Side Air Bags") are designed to activate in certain side impacts and
certain rollover events. The Occupant Restraint Controller ("ORC") determines whether the
deployment of the Side Air Bags in a particular side impact or rollover event is appropriate,
based on the severity and type of collision. Vehicle damage by itself is not a good indicator of
whether or not Side Air Bags should have deployed.
Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details regarding the "Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) in Things To Know Before Starting".
NOTE:
The Air Bag System is designed to be maintenance free.
• Side Air Bags need room to inflate. Do not lean against the door or window. Sit upright in
the center of the seat.
• Being too close to the Side Air Bags during deployment could cause you to be severely
injured or killed.
• Relying on the Side Air Bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision. The
Side Air Bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In some collisions, Side Air
Bags won't deploy at all. Always wear your seat belt even though you have Side Air Bags.

CHILD RESTRAINTS

Children 12 years or younger should ride properly buckled up in a rear seat, if available. According
to crash statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seats rather than in the
front.
Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces require that small children ride in
proper restraint systems. This is the law, and you can be prosecuted for ignoring it.
