Dodge 2014 SRT Viper Owner's Manual page 49

WARNING!
• No objects should be placed over or near the air
bag on the instrument panel, because any such
objects could cause harm if the vehicle is in a
collision severe enough to cause the air bag to
inflate.
• Do not put anything on or around the air bag
covers or attempt to open them manually. You may
damage the air bags and you could be injured
because the air bags may no longer be functional.
The protective covers for the air bag cushions are
designed to open only when the air bags are
inflating.
• Do not drill, cut or tamper with the knee bolster in
any way.
THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 47
• Do not mount any accessories to the knee bolster
such as alarm lights, stereos, citizen band radios,
etc.
• 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, air bags won't deploy at all. Al-
ways wear your seat belts even though you have air
bags.
• Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument
panel during air bag deployment could cause seri-
ous injury. Air bags need room to inflate. Sit back,
extending your arms comfortably to reach the steer-
ing wheel or instrument panel.
