  • Page 102: Child Restraints

    Seating and Safety Restraints continue to operate properly, they do not need to be replaced. Safety belt assemblies not in use during a collision should also be inspected and replaced if either damage or improper operation is noted. Failure to inspect and if necessary replace the safety belt assembly under the above conditions could result in severe personal injuries in the event of a collision.
  • Page 103 To 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 applicable Federal motor vehicle safety standards. Belt-positioning booster seats raise the child and provide a shorter, firmer seating cushion that encourages safer seating posture and better fit of lap and shoulder belts on the child.
  • Page 104 • Place seat back in upright position. Ford recommends the use of a child safety seat having a top tether strap. Install the child safety seat in a seating position which is capable of providing a tether anchorage. For more information on top tether straps, refer to Attaching safety seats with tether straps.
  • Page 105 Seating and Safety Restraints 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. Children are safer restrained in the rear seat when possible. 2.

Before placing the child in the seat, forcibly tilt the seat forward and back to make sure the seat is securely held in place. To check this, grab the seat at the belt path and attempt to move it side to side and forward and back.

If you have a Super Cab or Crew Cab, Ford recommends you attach tether safety seats in the rear seating position (if possible) with the tether strap attached to the tether anchorage bracket as shown in the instructions provided with the tether anchor kit.
  • Page 108: Driving

    Driving STARTING PROCEDURES Operating precautions • Always shift to a lower gear at high altitudes to prevent engine smoking. • Avoid extended and unnecessary idling. Diesel engine vapors are combustible. Do not operate the engine in an enclosed area. These vapors can be sucked through the air intake system and cause engine acceleration and overspeeding, which may result in bodily injury and extensive property damage.
  • Page 109 Driving After the engine starts: • On some engines, the Wait to WAIT start light should illuminate after the engine starts. Allow the START engine to idle about three minutes or until the engine coolant temperature gauge begins to rise. Maintain idle speed until the Wait to start light cycles off to indicate the air intake heater has shut off (approximately six minutes).
  • Page 110 Driving Using the engine block heater (if equipped) An engine block heater warms the engine coolant, which improves starting, warms up the engine faster and allows the heater-defroster system to respond quickly.
