GENERAL INFORMA TION See the following sections for directions on how to properly use safety restraints for children. W ARNING: Always make sure your child is secured properly in a device that is appropriate for their height, age and weight. Child safety restraints must be bought separately from your vehicle. Failure to follow these instructions an[...]

Recommendations for Safety Restraints for Children Child size, height, weight, or age Recommended restraint type Infants or toddlers Children weighing 40 lb (18 kg) or less (generally age four or younger). Use a child safety seat (sometimes called an infant carrier , convertible seat, or toddler seat). Small children Children who have outgrown or n[...]

CHILD SEA TS Use a child safety seat (sometimes called an infant carrier , convertible seat, or toddler seat) for infants, toddlers or children weighing 40 pounds (18 kilograms) or less (generally age four or younger). CHILD SEA T POSITIONING W ARNING: Airbags can kill or injure a child in a child seat. NEVER place a rear -facing child seat in fron[...]

W ARNING: Always restrain an unoccupied child seat or booster seat. These objects may become projectiles in a crash or sudden stop, which may increase the risk of serious injury . W ARNING: Never place, or allow a child to place, the shoulder belt under a child’ s arm or behind the back because it reduces the protection for the upper part of the [...]

BOOSTER SEA TS W ARNING: Never place, or allow a child to place, the shoulder belt under a child’ s arm or behind the back because it reduces the protection for the upper part of the body and may increase the risk of injury or death in a crash. Use a belt-positioning booster seat for children who have outgrown or no longer properly fit in a child[...]

T ypes of Booster Seats • Backless booster seats If your backless booster seat has a removable shield, remove the shield. If a vehicle seating position has a low seat back or no head restraint, a backless booster seat may place your child’ s head (as measured at the tops of the ears) above the top of the seat. In this case, move the backless bo[...]

Children and booster seats vary in size and shape. Choose a booster that keeps the lap belt low and snug across the hips, never up across the stomach, and lets you adjust the shoulder belt to cross the chest and rest snugly near the center of the shoulder . The following drawings compare the ideal fit (center) to a shoulder belt uncomfortably close[...]

INST ALLING CHILD SEA TS Using Lap and Shoulder Belts W ARNING: 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 all the way back. W ARNING: Airbags can kill or injure a child in a child seat. Children [...]

Perform the following steps when installing the child seat with combination lap and shoulder belts: Note: Although the child seat illustrated is a forward-facing child seat, the steps are the same for installing a rear -facing child seat. 1. Position the child safety seat in a seat with a combination lap and shoulder belt. 2. Pull down on the shoul[...]

4. Insert the belt tongue into the proper buckle (the buckle closest to the direction the tongue is coming from) for that seating position until you hear a snap and feel the latch engage. Make sure the tongue is latched securely by pulling on it. 5. T o put the retractor in the automatic locking mode, grasp the shoulder portion of the belt and pull[...]

This is necessary to remove the remaining slack that will exist once the extra weight of the child is added to the child restraint. It also helps to achieve the proper snugness of the child seat to your vehicle. Sometimes, a slight lean toward the buckle will additionally help to remove remaining slack from the belt. 9. Attach the tether strap (if [...]

The LA TCH system is composed of three vehicle anchor points: two lower anchors located where your vehicle seat back and seat cushion meet (called the seat bight) and one top tether anchor located behind that seating position. LA TCH compatible child safety seats have two rigid or webbing mounted attachments that connect to the two lower anchors at[...]

Use of Inboard Lower Anchors from the Outboard Seating Positions (Center Seating Use) Note: The standardized spacing for LA TCH lower anchors is 11 inches. (28 centimeters) center to center . Do not use LA TCH lower anchors for the center seating position unless the child seat manufacturer’ s instructions permit and specify using anchors spaced a[...]

The tether strap anchors in your vehicle are in the following positions (shown from top view): Perform the following steps to install a child safety seat with tether anchors: Note: If you install a child seat with rigid LA TCH attachments, do not tighten the tether strap enough to lift the child seat off your vehicle seat cushion when the child is [...]

4. T ighten the child safety seat tether strap according to the manufacturer’ s instructions. If your child restraint system is equipped with a tether strap, and the child restraint manufacturer recommends its use, Ford also recommends its use. CHILD SAFETY LOCKS The childproof locks are located on the rear edge of each rear door and must be set [...]

PRINCIPLES OF OPERA TION W ARNING: Never let a passenger hold a child on his or her lap while the vehicle is moving. The passenger cannot protect the child from injury in a crash. W ARNING: It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a crash, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seriously inju[...]

W ARNING: Safety belts and seats can become hot in a vehicle that has been closed up in sunny weather; they could burn a small child. Check seat covers and buckles before you place a child anywhere near them. W ARNING: Front and rear seat occupants, including pregnant women, should wear safety belts for optimum protection in an accident. All seatin[...]

F ASTENING THE SAFETY BEL TS The front outboard and rear safety restraints in your vehicle are combination lap and shoulder belts. 1. Insert the belt tongue into the proper buckle (the buckle closest to the direction the tongue is coming from) until you hear a snap and feel it latch. Make sure the tongue is securely fastened in the buckle. 2. T o u[...]

T o adjust the comfort guide: 1. Slip the shoulder belt into the belt guide. 2. Slide the guide up or down along the webbing so that the belt is centered on the occupant’ s shoulder . Restraint of Pregnant Women W ARNING: Always ride and drive with your seat back upright and the safety belt properly fastened. The lap portion of the safety belt sh[...]

Safety Belt Locking Modes W ARNING: After any vehicle crash, the safety belt system at all passenger seating positions must be checked by an authorized dealer to verify that the automatic locking retractor feature for child seats is still functioning properly . In addition, all safety belts should be checked for proper function. W ARNING: BEL T AND[...]

How to Use the Automatic Locking Mode 1. Buckle the combination lap and shoulder belt. 2. Grasp the shoulder portion and pull downward until the entire belt is pulled out. 3. Allow the belt to retract. As the belt retracts, you will hear a clicking sound. This indicates the safety belt is now in the automatic locking mode. How to Disengage the Auto[...]

SAFETY BEL T HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT W ARNING: Position the safety belt height adjusters so that the belt rests across the middle of your shoulder . Failure to adjust the safety belt properly could reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt and increase the risk of injury in a collision. Adjust the height of the shoulder belt so the belt rests across the [...]

SAFETY BEL T -MINDER® This feature supplements the safety belt warning function by providing additional reminders by intermittently sounding a chime and illuminating the safety belt warning light when the driver’ s or front passenger’ s seat is occupied and the safety belt is unbuckled.

PERSONAL SAFETY SYSTEM™ The Personal Safety System provides an improved overall level of frontal crash protection to front seat occupants and is designed to help further reduce the risk of airbag-related injuries. The system is able to analyze different occupant conditions and crash severity before activating the appropriate safety devices to hel[...]

PRINCIPLES OF OPERA TION W ARNING: Airbags do not inflate slowly or gently , and the risk of injury from a deploying airbag is the greatest close to the trim covering the airbag module. W ARNING: All occupants of your vehicle, including the driver , should always properly wear their safety belts, even when an airbag supplemental restraint system is[...]

The airbags are a supplemental restraint system and are designed to work with the safety belts to help protect the driver and right front passenger from certain upper body injuries. Airbags do not inflate slowly; there is a risk of injury from a deploying airbag. Note: Y ou will hear a loud bang and see a cloud of harmless powdery residue if an air[...]

DRIVER AND P ASSENGER AIRBAGS W ARNING: Never place your arm or any objects over an airbag module. 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 .[...]

Proper Driver and Front Passenger Seating Adjustment W ARNING: The National Highway T raffic Safety Administration recommends a minimum distance of at least 10 inches (25 centimeters) between an occupant’ s chest and the driver airbag module. T o properly position yourself away from the airbag: • Move your seat to the rear as far as you can whi[...]

FRONT P ASSENGER SENSING SYSTEM W ARNING: Even with Advanced Restraints Systems, children 12 and under should be properly restrained in a rear seating position. Failure to follow this could seriously increase the risk of injury or death. W ARNING: Sitting improperly out of position or with the seat back reclined too far can take off weight from the[...]

The front passenger sensing system uses a passenger airbag status indicator which will illuminate indicating that the front passenger frontal airbag is either ON (enabled) or OFF (disabled). The indicator lamp is located in the center stack of the instrument panel. Note: The passenger airbag status indicator OFF and ON lamps will illuminate for a s[...]

• Restart the vehicle and have the person remain in this position for about two minutes. This will allow the system to detect that person and enable the passenger’ s frontal airbag. • If the passenger airbag status indicator OFF lamp remains lit even after this, the person should be advised to ride in the rear seat. Occupant Passenger Airbag [...]

The conditions listed above may cause the weight of a properly seated occupant to be incorrectly interpreted by the front passenger sensing system. The person in the front passenger seat may appear heavier or lighter due to the conditions described in the previous list. T o know if the front passenger sensing system is operating properly , see Cras[...]

SIDE AIRBAGS W ARNING: Do not place objects or mount equipment on or near the airbag cover , on the side of the seat backs (of the front seats), or in front seat areas that may come into contact with a deploying airbag. Failure to follow these instructions may increase the risk of personal injury in the event of a crash. W ARNING: Do not use access[...]

The system consists of the following: • a tag on the seat back indicating that side airbags are found on your vehicle • side airbags located inside the seat back of the driver and front passenger seats. • crash sensors and monitoring system with readiness indicator . See Crash Sensors and Airbag Indicator later in this chapter . • front pas[...]

W ARNING: All occupants of your vehicle including the driver should always wear their safety belts even when an airbag supplemental restraint system and curtain airbag is provided.

Children 12 years old and under should always be properly restrained in the rear seats. The Safety Canopy will not interfere with children restrained using a properly installed child or booster seat because it is designed to inflate downward from the headliner above the doors along the side window opening. The design and development of the Safety C[...]

If any of these things happen, even intermittently , have the supplemental restraint system serviced at an authorized dealer immediately .
