Check seat covers and buckles before you

Safety Seats for Children
Use a safety seat that is recommended for the
size and weight of the child. Always follow the
safety seat manufacturer's instructions when
installing and using the safety seat.
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

fastened in the buckle. For a shoulder/lap belt
