## Abstract

This document adopts as final most of the amendments made by interim final rules to the air bag warning label requirement in Standard No. 213, ``Child Restraint Systems'' (49 CFR 571.213). The required label warns that a rear-facing child restraint must never be placed in a vehicle front seat with an air bag. The interim final rules modified the label to allow the phrase ``unless air bag is off'' to be added to the end of the warning, if the child seat is equipped with a device that deactivates the air bag and provides a signal that the air bag has been disabled. This document adopts the amendments of the interim rules, except that the signal that the air bag is deactivated must be provided for a longer duration than that specified in the interim rules. This document also corrects a labeling provision in Standard 213 that required child restraints to provide an installation diagram showing the child restraint system installed in the ``right front'' outboard seating position equipped with a continuous-loop lap/shoulder belt and the ``center rear'' seating position equipped with only a lap belt. The agency is removing the references to ``right front'' and ``center rear'' as being unnecessary and potentially confusing.
