SAFETY RESTRAINTS Safety restraints precautions Always drive and ride with your seatback upright and the lap belt snug and low across the hips. T o reduce the risk of injury , make sure children sit in the back seat where they can be properly restrained.
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.
When to use the automatic locking mode In this mode, the shoulder belt is automatically pre-locked. The belt will still retract to remove any slack in the shoulder belt.
After any vehicle collision, the safety belt systems at all outboard seating positions (except the driver position, which does not have this feature) must be checked by a qualified technician to verify that the automatic locking retractor feature for child seats is still functioning properly .

AIR BAG SUPPLEMENT AL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) Important SRS precautions The SRS is designed to work with the safety belt to help protect the driver and right front passenger from certain upper body injuries. Air bags DO NOT inflate slowly; there is a risk of injury from a deploying air bag.
The National Highway T raffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recommends a minimum distance of at least 25 cm (10 inches) between an occupant ’ s chest and the driver air bag module. Never place your arm over the air bag module as a deploying air bag can result in serious arm fractures or other injuries.
Children and air bags Children must always be properly restrained. Accident statistics suggest that children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seating positions than in the front seating position. Failure to follow these instructions may increase the risk of injury in a collision.
The air bags inflate and deflate rapidly upon activation. After air bag deployment, it is normal to notice a smoke-like, powdery residue or smell the burnt propellant. This may consist of cornstarch, talcum powder or sodium compounds which may irritate the skin and eyes, but none of the residue is toxic.
Determining if the system is operational The SRS uses a readiness light in the instrument cluster or a tone to indicate the condition of the system. Refer to Air bag readiness section in the Instrument Cluster chapter . Routine maintenance of the air bag is not required.
Important SRS precautions The SRS is designed to work with the safety belt to help protect the driver and right front passenger from certain upper body injuries.
Do not attempt to service, repair , or modify the air bag supplemental restraint systems or its fuses. See your Ford or Lincoln Mercury dealer . Children and safety belts If the child is the proper size, restrain the child in a safety seat.
Booster seats should be used until you can answer YES to ALL of these questions: • Can the child sit all the way back against the vehicle seat back with knees bent comfortably at the edge of the sea.
Both can be used in any vehicle in a seating position equipped with lap/shoulder belts if your child is over 40 lbs. The shoulder belt should cross the chest, resting snugly on the center of the shoulder . The lap belt should rest low and snug across the hips, never up high across the stomach.
When installing a child safety seat: • Review and follow the information presented in the Air Bag Supplemental Restraint System section in this chapter . • Use the correct safety belt buckle for that seating position (the buckle closest to the direction the tongue is coming from).
Installing child safety seats with combination lap and shoulder belts 1. Position the child safety seat in a seat with a combination lap and shoulder belt. An air bag can kill or injure a child in a child seat. Never place a rear -facing child seat in front of an active air bag.
3. While holding the shoulder and lap belt portions together , route the tongue through the child seat according to the child seat manufacturer ’ s instructions.
7. Pull the lap belt portion across the child seat toward the buckle and pull up on the shoulder belt while pushing down with your knee on the child seat.
Because the last row of seats is not equipped with either child tether or LA TCH anchors and is spaced closer to the row of seats in front, Do not use forward-facing or rear -facing child seats (other than belt-positioning boosters) in the last row . Air bags can kill or injure a child in a child seat.
3. Route the child safety seat tether strap over the back of the front right-hand passenger seat as shown. 4. Clip the tether strap hook to the seat pedestal to the location shown. 5. Adjust the front right hand passenger seat to the full rearward position.
