Chrysler 2014 Grand Cherokee SRT Owner's Manual page 32

Here are some simple steps you can take to
minimize the risk of harm from a deploying air
bag:
1. Children 12 years old and under should
always ride buckled up in a rear seat.
WARNING!
• Never place a rear facing infant seat in
front of an air bag. A deploying passenger
Advanced Front Air Bag can cause death
or serious injury to a child 12 years or
younger, including a child in a rearward
facing infant seat.
• Only use a rearward-facing child restraint
in a rear seat.
Children that are not big enough to wear the
vehicle seat belt properly (see section on Child
Restraints) should be secured in the rear seat in
child restraints or belt-positioning booster seats.
Older children who do not use child restraints or
belt-positioning booster seats should ride properly
buckled up in the rear seat. Never allow children
to slide the shoulder belt behind them or under
their arm.

PAGE POSITION: 32
If a child from 1 to 12 years old (not in a rear
facing child seat) must ride in the front passen-
ger seat, move the seat as far back as possible
and use the proper child restraint. (Refer to
"Child Restraints")
You should read the instructions provided with
your child restraint to make sure that you are
using it properly.
2. All occupants should always wear their
lap and shoulder belts properly.
3. The driver and front passenger seats
should be moved back as far as practical to
allow the Advanced Front Air Bags room to
inflate.
4. Do not lean against the door or window. If
your vehicle has side air bags, and deploy-
ment occurs, the side air bags will inflate
forcefully into the space between you and
the door.

5. If the air bag system in this vehicle needs
to be modified to accommodate a disabled
person, contact the Customer Center. Phone
numbers are provided under If You Need
Assistance .
WARNING!
• Relying on the air bags alone could lead to
more severe injuries in a collision. The air
bags work with your seat belt to restrain
you properly. In some collisions, the air
bags won't deploy at all. Always wear your
seat belts even though you have air bags.
• Being too close to the steering wheel or
instrument panel during Advanced Front
Air Bag deployment could cause serious
injury, including death. Air Bags need room
to inflate. Sit back, comfortably extending
your arms to reach the steering wheel or
instrument panel.
