Child Restraints - Dodge 2015 Viper SRT User Manual

Supplemental Side Air Bags
• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Door-Integrated Side Air Bag Inflatable
Curtains (SABICs). The SABICs are located in the door trim below the side windows.
The trim covering the SABICs is labeled SRS AIRBAG.
• The SABICs may help reduce the risk of partial or complete ejection of vehicle
occupants through side windows in certain side impact events.
• SABICs are designed to activate in certain side impacts. The Occupant Restraint
Controller ("ORC") determines whether the deployment of the SABIC in a particular
impact event is appropriate, based on the severity and type of collision. Vehicle damage
by itself is not a good indicator of whether or not SABICs should have deployed.
• Relying on the SABICs alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision. The
SABICs work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In some collisions, SABICs
won't deploy at all. Always wear your seat belt even though you have SABICs.
• SABICs 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 SABICs during deployment could cause you to be severely
injured or killed.
• Your vehicle is equipped with left and right Supplemental Door-Integrated Side Air
Bag Inflatable Curtains (SABICs). Do not stack luggage or other cargo up high
enough to block the deployment of the SABICs. The door trim below the side
windows where the SABIC and its deployment path are located, should remain free
from any obstructions.

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.
