Transport Canada Deactivation Criteria (Canada Only)

WARNING: This vehicle has special energy management safety

belts for the driver and right front passenger. These particular

belts are specifically designed to work with airbags to help reduce the

risk of injury in a crash. The energy management safety belt is designed

to give or release additional belt webbing in some accidents to reduce

concentration of force on an occupant’s chest and reduce the risk of

certain bone fractures and injuries to underlying organs. In a crash, if

the airbag is turned off, this energy management safety belt might

permit the person wearing the belt to move forward enough to incur a

serious or fatal injury. The more severe the crash, and the heavier the

occupant, the greater the risk is. Be sure the airbag is turned on for

any person who does not qualify under the National Highway Traffic

Safety Administration deactivation criteria.

1. Infant: An infant (less than 1 year old) must ride in the front seat because:

• my vehicle has no rear seat;

• the rear seat in my vehicle cannot accommodate a rear-facing infant

seat; or

• the infant has a medical condition which, according to the infant’s

physician, makes it necessary for the infant to ride in the front seat so

that the driver can monitor the infant’s condition.

2. Child age 12 or under: A child age 12 or under must ride in the

front seat because:

• my vehicle has no rear seat;

• although children age 12 and under ride in the rear seat whenever

possible, children age 12 and under have no option but to sometimes

ride in the front seat because rear seat space is insufficient; or

• the child has a medical condition that, according to the child’s

physician, makes it necessary for the child to ride in the front seat so

that the driver can monitor the child’s condition.

3. Medical condition: A passenger has a medical condition that,

according to his or her physician:

• poses a special risk for the passenger if the airbag deploys; and

• makes the potential harm from the passenger airbag deployment

greater than the potential harm from turning off the airbag and

experiencing a crash without the protection offered by the airbag
