WARNING: (Continued)
airbag could prevent the airbag from operating
properly. If this ever happens, the airbag would
not be able to protect occupants the way it was
designed to. To help prevent injury and to allow
the airbag to perform as it was designed,
do not mount equipment inside the airbag
deployment zone.
Q: How can I identify the airbag “deployment zone”
in my vehicle?
A: See Airbag Deployment Diagrams
on page 2‑6
for more information. The diagrams provide the
approximate dimensions of the “deployment zones”
for your specialty vehicle. Before doing any service
work, including the installation of any equipment,
consult the appropriate service manual.
Q: Is it possible to shield equipment so it does not
interfere with airbag deployment?
A: While shielding may protect certain equipment from
being damaged or dislodged, it may also negatively
affect how an airbag inflates. Therefore, we cannot
recommend the placement of any equipment in the
deployment zone, even when shielding.
