If a passenger is not properly seated and
restrained, an inflating air bag could cause
serious injury.
Do not place objects or mount equipment
on or near the air bag cover on the
steering wheel or in front seat areas that
may come in contact with a deploying air
bag. Failure to follow this instruction may
increase the risk of personal injury in the
event of a collision.

mounting of equipment in the front seat of this
vehicle, please refer to Ford's brochure entitled
