| Magnum Safety |
|
 For
Magnum engineers, safety is as high a priority as performance.
From the big things like safety cage construction right down
to the littlest passenger, Magnum isn't just designed to give
you performance and versatility. It's designed to give you
peace of mind. In fact, Dodge Magnum has received a five-star
rating—the highest government frontal crash test rating—for
both driver and front-passenger safety. |

Safety Cage Construction
|
 In
addition to providing stable and responsive handling,
Magnum's rigid structure and unibody construction offer
more protection for you and your passengers by managing
energy in the event of an accident.
|
| Occupant Classification System |
|
Magnum's occupant classification system (OCS) is designed
to make every journey safer.* The OCS calculates when and
with what force to deploy the passenger front air bag depending
on whether or not someone is sitting in the seat, and how
much that person weighs.
Always sit properly in the seat with the seat belt fastened.
|
| Latch |
|
|
Magnum is designed to let you carry
all kinds of cargo, but it's also designed to help protect
the most precious cargo of all. Lower child seat anchors and
upper tether anchors help ease the installation of compatible
child seats, so your child will be more secure and you'll
feel that way. |
| Air Bags |
|
 Even
the most careful driver occasionally gets into unavoidable
situations. When that happens, it's nice to know that
the next-generation multistage front air bags standard
on all models of Dodge Magnum will inflate according to
the severity of the impact.†
And the supplemental air bags† available on all models
offer additional side-impact protection to both front- and
rear-seat passengers.

* Certified to the federal regulation for
automatic passenger occupant classification. Always use
seat belts. Children 12 and under should always be in a
backseat correctly using an infant or child restraint system,
or with the seat belt positioned correctly for the child's
age and size. The OCS determines the conditions for activation
or deactivation of the passenger-side front air bag based
on the weight of the occupant. It may not activate the air
bag if the occupant has incorrect seating posture or is
moving in the seat. You should observe the air bag lamp
to determine if the OCS is calculating properly. Passengers
should sit properly in the seat with the seat belt fastened
at all times.
† Always wear a seat belt. Remember, a backseat is the
safest place for children 12 and under.
