AIRBAGS

Dual driver/passenger airbags and side airbags (if equipped) affect the
way police equipment can be mounted in police vehicles.

Any surfaces that could come into contact with an airbag, once it has
deployed, must not damage the airbag or alter its deployment path.

Once the airbag has fully deployed, any peripheral equipment surfaces
that could come into contact with the airbag (such as when the airbag
deflates with the loading of an occupant) must not damage the airbag or
alter its deployment path. Sharp edges, corners or protrusions could
damage the nylon airbag material and reduce the effectiveness of the
airbag.

WARNING: Do not place objects or mount equipment in front of
the airbag module cover or in front of the seat areas that may

come in contact with a deploying airbag. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury.

WARNING: Dash, tunnel or console-mounted equipment should
not be placed outside of the specified zone. Failure to follow this

instruction could result in personal injury.

WARNING: Do not mount equipment between the side of front
seat to the door trim to block deployment of the side airbag.

Failure to follow this instruction could result in personal injury.

Some approximate dimensions for airbags, at full inflation, are provided
in Figures 1 through 5. These dimensions are somewhat flexible and
