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.
W ARNING: Do not attempt to service, repair , or modify the airbag supplemental restraint systems or its fuses. Contact your authorized dealer as soon as possible.
How does the airbag supplemental restraint system work? The airbag SRS is designed to activate when the vehicle sustains a longitudinal deceleration sufficient to cause the airbag sensors to close an electrical circuit that initiates airbag inflation.
• seat-mounted side airbags. Refer to Seat-mounted side airbag system later in this chapter • Safety Canopy 威 System. Refer to Safety Canopy 威 System later in this chapter . • one or more impact and safing sensors. • Safety belt pretensioners • a readiness light and tone.
The front passenger sensing system will disable (will not inflate) the front passenger’ s frontal airbag if: • the front passenger seat is unoccupied, or has small/medium objects in the front seat.
The front passenger sensing system is designed to enable (may inflate) the front passenger’ s frontal airbag anytime the system senses that a person of adult size is sitting properly in the front passenger seat.
W ARNING: Sitting improperly out of position or with the seat back reclined too far can take off weight from the seat cushion and affect the decision of the front passenger sensing system, resulting in serious injury or death in a crash. Always sit upright against your seatback, with your feet on the floor .
W ARNING: T o reduce the risk of possible serious injury: Do not stow objects in seat back map pocket (if equipped) or hang objects off seat back if a child is in the front passenger seat. Do not place objects underneath the front passenger seat or between the seat and the center console (if equipped).
W ARNING: Any alteration/modification to the front passenger seat may affect the performance of the front passenger sensing system. Determining if the system is operational The SRS uses a readiness light in the instrument cluster or a tone to indicate the status of the system.
W ARNING: Do not attempt to service, repair , or modify the airbag SRS, its fuses or the seat cover on a seat containing an airbag. See an authorized dealer . W ARNING: All occupants of the vehicle should always wear their safety belts even when an airbag SRS is provided.
The airbag SRS is designed to activate when the vehicle sustains lateral deceleration sufficient to cause the sensors to close an electrical circuit that initiates airbag inflation. The fact that the airbags did not inflate in a collision does not mean that something is wrong with the system.
Safety Canopy 姞 System W ARNING: Do not place objects or mount equipment on or near the headliner at the siderail that may come into contact with a deploying Safety Canopy 威 . Failure to follow these instructions may increase the risk of personal injury in the event of a collision.
How does the Safety Canopy 姞 System work? The design and development of the Safety Canopy System included recommended testing procedures that were developed by a group of automotive safety experts known as the Side Airbag T echnical W orking Group.
The Safety Canopy System is designed to active when the vehicle sustains lateral deceleration sufficient to cause the RCM to initiate safety canopy inflation or when a certain likelihood of a rollover event is detected by the rollover sensor .
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 W arning lights and chimes in the Instrument Cluster chapter . Routine maintenance of the side airbag is not required.
SAFETY RESTRAINTS FOR CHILDREN See the following sections for directions on how to properly use safety restraints for children. Also see Airbag supplemental restraint system (SRS) in this chapter for special instructions about using airbags.
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).
Recommendations for attaching child safety restraints for children Restraint T ype Child W eight Use any attachment method as indicated below by “X” LA TCH (lower anchors and top tether anchor) LA.
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 collision, which may result in serious injury or death. W ARNING: Never use pillows, books, or towels to boost a child.
Follow all the safety restraint and airbag precautions that apply to adult passengers in your vehicle. If the child is the proper height, age, and weight (as specified by your child safety seat or boo.
Installing child safety seats with combination lap and shoulder belts The rear seat head restraints must be removed when using a child seat that utilizes the top tether anchor . Check to make sure the child seat is properly secured before each use. Children 12 and under should be properly restrained in a rear seating position whenever possible.
1. Position the child safety seat in a seat with a combination lap and shoulder belt. 2. Pull down on the shoulder belt and then grasp the shoulder belt and lap belt together . 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.
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.
9. Attach the tether strap (if the child seat is equipped). Refer to Attaching child safety seats with tether straps later in this chapter . 10. Before placing the child in the seat, forcibly move the seat forward and back to make sure the seat is securely held in place.
Y our vehicle has LA TCH lower anchors for child seat installation at the seating positions marked with the child seat symbol. The LA TCH anchors are located at the rear section of the rear seat between the cushion and seatback. Follow the child seat manufacturer’ s instructions to properly install a child seat with LA TCH attachments.
only be used at this seating position provided that the child seat manufacturer’ s instructions permit use with the anchor spacing stated. Do not attach a child seat to any lower anchor if an adjacent child seat is attached to that anchor . W ARNING: The standardized spacing for LA TCH lower anchors is 280 mm (11 inches) center to center .
The tether strap anchors in your vehicle are in the following positions (shown from top view): Attach the tether strap only to the appropriate tether anchor as shown. The tether strap may not work properly if attached somewhere other than the correct tether anchor .
3. Clip the tether strap to the anchor as shown. The arrow in the above graphic points toward the front of the vehicle. If the tether strap is clipped incorrectly , the child safety seat may not be retained properly in the event of a collision. 4. T ighten the child safety seat tether strap according to the manufacturer’ s instructions.
Booster seats position a child so that vehicle lap/shoulder safety belts fit better . They lift the child up so that the lap belt rests low across the hips and the knees bend comfortably at the edge of the cushion, while minimizing slouching. Booster seats may also make the shoulder belt fit better and more comfortably .
T ypes of booster seats There are generally two types of belt-positioning booster seats: backless and high back. Always use booster seats in conjunction with the vehicle lap/shoulder belt. • Backless booster seats If your backless booster seat has a removable shield, remove the shield.
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 .
Follow all instructions provided by the manufacturer of the booster seat. 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 collision.
NOTICE TO UTILITY VEHICLE AND TRUCK OWNERS Utility vehicles and trucks handle differently than passenger cars in the various driving conditions that are encountered on streets, highways and off-road.

Use of any tire or wheel not recommended by Ford can affect the safety and performance of your vehicle, which could result in an increased risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover , personal injury and death.
V EHICLE LOADING – WITH AND WITHOUT A TRAILER This section will guide you in the proper loading of your vehicle and/or trailer , to keep your loaded vehicle weight within its design rating capability , with or without a trailer . Properly loading your vehicle will provide maximum return of vehicle design performance.
Payload – is the combined weight of cargo and passengers that the vehicle is carrying. The maximum payload for your vehicle can be found on the T ire Label on the B-Pillar or the edge of the driver’ s door (vehicles exported outside the US and Canada may not have a T ire Label).
Example only: Cargo W eight – includes all weight added to the Base Curb W eight, including cargo and optional equipment. When towing, trailer tongue load or king pin weight is also part of cargo weight. GA W (Gross Axle W eight) – is the total weight placed on each axle (front and rear) – including vehicle curb weight and all payload.
GA WR (Gross Axle W eight Rating) – is the maximum allowable weight that can be carried by a single axle (front or rear). These numbers are shown on the Safety Compliance Certification Label located on the B-Pillar or the edge of the driver’ s door .
• Example only: W ARNING: Exceeding the Safety Compliance Certification Label vehicle weight rating limits could result in substandard vehicle handling or performance, engine, transmission and/or structural damage, serious damage to the vehicle, loss of control and personal injury .
GCW (Gross Combined W eight) – is the weight of the loaded vehicle (GVW) plus the weight of the fully loaded trailer . GCWR (Gross Combined W eight Rating) – is the maximum allowable weight of the vehicle and the loaded trailer – including all cargo and passengers – that the vehicle can handle without risking damage.
W ARNING: Exceeding any vehicle weight rating limitation could result in serious damage to the vehicle and/or personal injury . Steps for determining the correct load limit: 1. Locate the statement “The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lb.
• A final example for your vehicle with 1,400 lb. (635 kg) of cargo and luggage capacity . Y ou and one of your friends decide to pick up cement from the local home improvement store to finish that patio you have been planning for the past 2 years. Measuring the inside of the vehicle with the rear seat folded down, you have room for 12-100 lb.
T RAILER TOWING T railer towing with your vehicle may require the use of a trailer tow option package. T railer towing puts additional loads on your vehicle’ s engine, transmission, axle, brakes, tires and suspension. For your safety and to maximize vehicle performance, be sure to use the proper equipment while towing.

Driving with blind spot mirrors Before a lane change, check the main mirror first, then check the blind spot mirror . If no vehicles are present in the blind spot mirror and the traffic in the adjacent lane is at a safe distance, signal that you are going to change lanes.
Driving off-road with truck and utility vehicles 4WD vehicles are specially equipped for driving on sand, snow , mud and rough terrain and have operating characteristics that are somewhat different from conventional vehicles, both on and off the road.
• It often may be less risky to strike small objects, such as highway reflectors, with minor damage to your vehicle rather than attempt a sudden return to the pavement which could cause the vehicle to slide sideways out of control or roll over . Remember , your safety and the safety of others should be your primary concern.
Emergency maneuvers • In an unavoidable emergency situation where a sudden sharp turn must be made, remember to avoid “over -driving” your vehicle, i.e., turn the steering wheel only as rapidly and as far as required to avoid the emergency . Excessive steering will result in less vehicle control, not more.
Mud and water If you must drive through high water , drive slowly . T raction or brake capability may be limited. When driving through water , determine the depth; avoid water higher than the bottom of the hubs (if possible) and proceed slowly . If the ignition system gets wet, the vehicle may stall.
Driving on hilly or sloping terrain Although natural obstacles may make it necessary to travel diagonally up or down a hill or steep incline, you should always try to drive straight up or straight down. A void driving crosswise or turning on steep slopes or hills.
Driving on snow and ice 4WD vehicles have advantages over 2WD vehicles in snow and ice but can skid like any other vehicle. Should you start to slide while driving on snowy or icy roads, turn the steering wheel in the direction of the slide until you regain control.
Any modifications to a vehicle that raise the center of gravity can make it more likely the vehicle will roll over as a result of a loss of control. Ford Motor Company recommends that caution be used with any vehicle equipped with a high load or device (such as ladder racks or pickup box cover).
