When

an
appropriate

This
is required
by law in the U.S. and Canada.Child
restraint
systems
specifically
designed
for
infants
and
small
children
are
offered
by
several
manufacturers.
Choose
only
a child
restraint
system
with
a label
certifying
that
it
complies
with
Federal
Motor
Vehicle
Safety
Standard
213
(FMVSS
213)

Look
for
the
manufac-

’s statement
of
compliance
on
the
box
and child restraint system itself. The
child
restraint
system
should
be
appropri-
ate
for
your
child’
s weight
and
height,
and
should properly fit your vehicle’
s seat.

The SRS includes the following components:
The
airbag
control
unit
monitors
the
readiness
of the
electronic
parts
of the
system
whenever
the
ignition
switch
is
in
the
“ON”
or
“ST
ART”
position.
These
include
all
of
the
items listed above and all related wiring. The
airbags
will
operate
only
when
the
igni-
tion
switch
is in the
“ON”
or
“ST
ART”
posi-
tion. When
the
impact
sensors
detect
a front
or
side
impact
suf
ficient
to deploy
the
airbag(s),
the appropriate airbag(s) will be deployed.
When
airbags
deploy
, some
smo
ke
is relea
sed
accompanied
by
a loud
noise.
The
smoke
is
not
harmful,
but
do
not
intentionally
inhale
the
smoke
as
it may
cause
temporary
irrita-
tion to people with respiratory problems.After
deployment,
the
airbags
will
quickly
deflate,
so
quickly
that
some
people
may
not
even
realize
the
airbags
inflated.
Airbag
inflation
does
not
prevent
the
driver
from
seeing
or being
able
to steer
the
vehicle,
and
does
not
prevent
people
from
leaving
the
veh
icle.
