Occupant safety
Introduction
The smart vehicle is equipped with seat
belts and dual stage air bags to protect you
in a crash. However, children can be killed
or seriously injured by an inflating air
bag. Indeed, there is a stronger risk of
serious death or bodily injury when an air
bag deploys on a child positioned in a
rear-facing child seat in the passenger
seat. Because this vehicle has only two
front seats and no backseat, it is limited
as are other two-seat vehicles, in the
extent to which it may restrain children
traveling in the passenger front seat. Many
states have laws against placing children
of certain ages in the front seat of a
vehicle that has both front and back seats.
Those laws make exceptions to permit
children to be restrained in the front seat
of two seat vehicles. Special instructions
and warnings are provided below about
when and if you may restrain a child in the
passenger seat of the smart vehicle. Under
certain circumstances, it is appropriate
for the passenger air bag not to operate
when a child is restrained in a car seat in
the passenger seat, and this vehicle is
equipped with technology to accomplish
this. Please pay very close attention to the
instructions and warnings below,
particularly as they relate to children.
In this section you will learn the most
important facts about the restraint system
components of the vehicle.
The restraint systems are:
R Seat belts ( Y page 31)
R Child restraints ( Y page 41)
Additional protection potential is
provided by:
R
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
with
- Air bags ( Y page 33)
- Air bag control unit (with crash
sensors)
- Emergency Tensioning Devices and
seat belt force limiters ( Y page 33)
R Air bag system components with
- Passenger front air bag off indicator
lamp ( Y page 40)
- Passenger seat with
Occupant
Classification System (OCS)
( Y page 37)
Although independent systems, their
protective functions work in conjunction
with each other.
i For information on infants and
children traveling with you in the
vehicle and restraint systems for infants
and children, see “Children in the
vehicle” ( Y page 41).
The SRS system conducts a self-test when
the ignition is switched on and in regular
intervals while the engine is running. This
facilitates detection of malfunctions. The
SRS indicator lamp 0081 in the instrument
cluster comes on when the ignition is
switched on and goes out after
approximately four seconds.
The SRS components are in operational
readiness if the SRS indicator lamp 0081
is not lit when the engine is running.
A malfunction in the system has been
detected if the SRS indicator lamp 0081
R fails to go out after approximately 4
seconds after the ignition was switched
on
R does not come on at all
R comes on after the engine was started or
while driving

Modifications to or work improperly
conducted on restraint systems (such as

seat belts and anchors, Emergency
Tensioning Devices, seat belt force
limiters or air bags) or their wiring, as
well as tampering with interconnected
electronic systems, can lead to the
restraint systems no longer functioning as
intended. Air bags or Emergency
Tensioning Devices, for example, could
deploy inadvertently or fail to deploy in
accidents in which they otherwise should
deploy (although the deceleration
threshold for air bag deployment is
exceeded). Therefore, never modify the
restraint systems. Do not tamper with
electronic components or their software.GWarning!
In the event that the SRS indicator lamp
0081 comes on while driving or does not
come on at all, the SRS self-check has
detected a malfunction. For your safety, we
strongly recommend that you immediately
but safely pull the vehicle off of the
roadway and stop driving. Contact an
authorized smart center immediately to
have the system checked; otherwise the SRS
may not deploy when needed in an accident,
which could result in serious or fatal
injury, or it might deploy unexpectedly and
unnecessarily which could also result in
injury.
In addition, improper repair work on the
SRS creates a risk of rendering the SRS
inoperative or causing unintended air bag
deployment. Work on the SRS must therefore
only be performed by qualified
technicians. Contact an authorized smart
center. If it is necessary to modify an air
bag system to accommodate a person with
disabilities, contact your local authorized
smart center.
Seat belts
The use of seat belts and infant and child
restraint systems is required by law in all
50 states, the District of Columbia, the U.S.
territories and all Canadian provinces and
territories.
Even where this is not the case, all vehicle
occupants should have their seat belts
fastened whenever the vehicle is being
operated.
For more information, see “Fastening the
seat belts” ( Y page 60).
i For information on infants and
children traveling with you in the
vehicle and restraint systems for infants
and children, see “Children in the
vehicle” ( Y page 41).GWarning!
Always fasten your seat belt before driving.
Always make sure all of your passengers are
properly restrained.
Failure to wear and properly fasten and
position your seat belt greatly increases
your risk of injuries and their likely
severity in an accident. You and your
passenger should always wear seat belts.
If you are ever in an accident, your injuries
can be considerably more severe without
your seat belt properly buckled.
Without your seat belt buckled, you are
much more likely to hit the interior of the
vehicle or be ejected from it. You can be
seriously injured or killed.
In the same crash, the possibility of injury
or death is lessened if you are properly
wearing your seat belt. Air bags can only
protect you if you are properly wearing
your seat belt.
GWarning!
Never ride in a moving vehicle with the seat
backrest in an excessively reclined
position as this can be dangerous. You
could slide under the seat belt in a
collision. If you slide under it, the belt
would apply force at the abdomen or neck,
causing serious or even fatal injuries. The
seat backrest and seat belt provide the best
