Placing your arm over a deploying airbag can result in serious arm fractures or other injuries. Objects placed on or over the airbag inflation area may cause those objects to be propelled by the airbag into your face and torso causing serious injury. WARNING: Airbags can kill or injure a child in a child seat. Never place a rear-facing child seat in front of an active airbag. If you must use a forward-facing child seat in the front seat, move the seat upon which the child seat is installed all the way back. The driver and front passenger airbags will deploy during significant frontal and near-frontal crashes. The driver and passenger front airbag system consists of: • driver and passenger airbag modules • crash sensors and monitoring system with readiness indicator. See Crash Sensors and Airbag Indicator later in this chapter. • front passenger sensing system Proper Driver and Front Passenger Seating Adjustment WARNING: The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recommends a minimum distance of at least 10 inches (25 centimeters) between an occupant's chest and the driver airbag module. Failure to follow this could seriously increase the risk of injury or death. 2014 05+ Mustang (197) Owners Guide gf, 2nd Printing, May 2013 USA (fus)
