WARNING
Ford recommends that all safety belt
assemblies and attaching hardware
should be inspected by a qualified
technician after any collision. Safety
belt assemblies not in use during a
collision should also be inspected and
replaced if either damage or improper
operation is noted.
WARNING
Children should always ride with the
seatback in the fully upright position.
WARNING
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.
WARNING
Lock the doors of your vehicle before
driving to lessen the risk of the door
coming open in a collision.
Combination Lap and Shoulder
Belts
While your vehicle is in motion, the combination
lap and shoulder belt adjusts to your movement.
However, if you brake hard, corner hard or if your
vehicle receives an impact of 5 mph (8 km/h) or
more, the lap and shoulder belt locks and helps
reduce your forward movement.
After you get into your vehicle, close the door and
lock it. Then adjust the seat to the position that
suits you best.
