In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seat belt. Each seating position in your vehicle has a specific safety belt assembly which is made up of one buckle and one tongue that are designed to be used as a pair .
The front outboard safety restraints in the vehicle are combination lap and shoulder belts. The front passenger outboard safety belt has two types of locking modes described below: Energy Management F.
When to use the automatic locking mode • Anytime a child safety seat is installed in a passenger front or outboard rear seating position (if equipped). Children 12 years old and under should be properly restrained in the rear seat whenever possible.
How to disengage the automatic locking mode Disconnect the combination lap/shoulder belt and allow it to retract completely to disengage the automatic locking mode and activate the vehicle sensitive (emergency) locking mode.

Lap belts Adjusting the front center seat lap belt (if equipped) The lap belt does not adjust automatically . The lap belts should fit snugly and as low as possible around the hips, not around the waist. Insert the tongue into the correct buckle (the buckle closest to the direction the tongue is coming from).
The lap belts should fit snugly and as low as possible around the hips, not around the waist. If you need to lengthen the belt, unfasten it and repeat the procedure above. T o unfasten the belt, push in the release button prior to opening the rear door .
Belt minder (if equipped) The Belt Minder feature is a supplemental warning to the safety belt warning function. This feature provides additional reminders to the driver that the driver’ s safety belt is unbuckled by intermittently sounding a chime and illuminating the safety belt warning lamp in the instrument cluster .
The following are reasons most often given for not wearing safety belts: (All statistics based on U.S. data) Reasons given... Consider ... 9 Crashes are rare events 9 36 700 crashes occur every day . The more we drive, the more we are exposed to 9 rare 9 events, even for good drivers.
One time disable Anytime the safety belt is buckled and then unbuckled during an ignition ON cycle, Belt Minder will be disabled for that ignition cycle only . Deactivating/activating the belt minder feature Read step s1-9 thoroughly before proceeding with the deactivation/activation programming procedure.
6. W ithin seven seconds of the safety belt warning light turning off, buckle then unbuckle the safety belt. • This will disable Belt Minder if it is currently enabled, or enable Belt Minder if it is currently disabled.
AIR BAG SUPPLEMENT AL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) Y our vehicle is equipped with a crash sensing and diagnostic module which records information about the air bag and sensor systems. In the event of a collision this module may save information related to the collision including information about the air bag system and impact severity .
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.
How does the air bag supplemental restraint system work? The air bag SRS is designed to activate when the vehicle sustains sufficient longitudinal deceleration. The fact that the air bags did not inflate in a collision does not mean that something is wrong with the system.
Several air bag system components get hot after inflation. Do not touch them after inflation. If the air bag is deployed, the air bag will not function again and must be replaced immediately . If the air bag is not replaced, the unrepaired area will increase the risk of injury in a collision.
If any of these things happen, even intermittently , have the SRS serviced at your dealership or by a qualified technician immediately . Unless serviced, the system may not function properly in the event of a collision.
If the light fails to illuminate when the passenger air bag switch is in the OFF position and the ignition switch is in ON, have the passenger air bag switch serviced at your Ford or Lincoln-Mercury dealer immediately . In order to avoid inadvertent activation of the switch, always remove the ignition key from the passenger air bag ON/OFF switch.
The safety belts for the driver and right front passenger seating positions have been specifically designed to function together with the air bags in certain types of crashes.
• the infant has a medical condition which, according to the infant’ s physician, makes it necessary for the infant to ride in the front so that the driver can constantly monitor the child’ s condition.
Transport Canada deactivation criteria (Canada Only) 1. Infant: An infant (less than 1 year old) must ride in the front seat because: • my vehicle has no rear seat; • the rear seat in my vehicle c.
SAFETY RESTRAINTS FOR CHILDREN See the following sections for directions on how to properly use safety restraints for children. Also see Air Bag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) in this chapter for special instructions about using air bags.
Do not leave children, unreliable adults, or pets unattended in your vehicle. T o improve the fit of lap and shoulder belts on children who have outgrown child safety seats, Ford recommends use of a belt-positioning booster seat that is labelled as conforming to all Federal motor vehicle safety standards.
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 in combination lap and shoulder belt seating positions 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. If you must use a forward-facing child seat in the front seat, move seat all the way back.
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 knee on the child seat. 8. Allow the safety belt to retract to remove any slack in the belt. 9. Before placing the child in the seat, forcibly tilt the seat forward and back to make sure the seat is securely held in place.
Attaching safety seats with tether straps Some manufacturers make safety seats that include a tether strap that goes over the back of the vehicle seat and attaches to an anchoring point. Other manufacturers offer the tether strap as an accessory . Contact the manufacturer of your child safety seat for information about ordering a tether strap.
PREPARING TO START YOUR VEHICLE Engine starting is controlled by the powertrain control system. This system meets all Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment standard requirements regulating the impulse electrical field strength of radio noise. When starting a fuel-injected engine, avoid pressing the accelerator before or during starting.
2. Make sure the headlamps and vehicle accessories are off. If starting a vehicle with an automatic transmission: • Make sure the parking brake is set. • Make sure the gearshift is in P (Park). If starting a vehicle with a manual transmission: • Make sure the parking brake is set.
Make sure the corresponding lights illuminate briefly . If a light fails to illuminate, have the vehicle serviced. • If the driver’ s safety belt is fastened, the light may not illuminate. ST ARTING THE ENGINE 1. T urn the key to 5 (ST ART) without pressing the accelerator pedal and release as soon as the engine starts.
3. If the temperature is below -12° C (10° F) and the engine does not start in 15 seconds on the first try , turn the key OFF and wait 10 seconds and try again. If the engine does not start in two attempts, press the accelerator pedal all the way to floor and hold.
If the engine fails to start using the preceding instructions 1. Press the accelerator pedal 1/3 to 1/2 of the way to floor and hold. 2. T urn the key to ST ART position. 3. When the engine starts, release the key , then release the accelerator pedal gradually as the engine speeds up.

BRAKES Y our service brakes are self-adjusting. Refer to the scheduled maintenance guide for scheduled maintenance. Occasional brake noise is normal and often does not indicate a performance concern with the vehicle’ s brake system.
W ith the ABS light on, the anti-lock brake system is disabled and normal braking is still effective unless the brake warning light also remains illuminated with parking brake released. (If your brake warning lamp illuminates, have your vehicle serviced immediately .
ABS warning lamp ABS The ABS warning lamp in the instrument cluster momentarily illuminates when the ignition is turned to the ON position. If the light does not illuminate momentarily at start up, remains on or continues to flash, the ABS needs to be serviced.
The BRAKE warning lamp in the instrument cluster illuminates and remains illuminated (when the ignition is turned ON) until the parking brake is released. Always set the parking brake fully and make sure that the gearshift is securely latched in P (Park) (automatic transmission) or in 1 (First) (manual transmission).
If the steering wanders or pulls, the condition could be caused by any of the following: • underinflated tire(s) on any wheel(s) • high crown in center of road • high crosswinds • wheels out o.
Use extra caution while becoming familiar with your vehicle. Know the capabilities and limitations of both you as a driver and your vehicle. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OPERATION (IF EQUIPPED) Brake-shift .
