52 Supplementary Restraints System
• A flexible headliner which opens above the side doors to allow air
curtain deployment.
• Crash sensors and monitoring system with readiness
indicator. Refer to Crash sensors and Airbag Indicator later
in this chapter.
Children 12 years old and under should always be properly restrained in
the second or third row seats. The Safety Canopy will not interfere with
children restrained using a properly installed child or booster seat
because it is designed to inflate downward from the headliner above the
doors along the side window opening.
The design and development of the Safety Canopy included recommended
testing procedures that were developed by a group of automotive safety
experts known as the Side Airbag Technical Working Group. These
recommended testing procedures help reduce the risk of injuries related to
the deployment of side airbags (including the Safety Canopy).
