Side Air Bag System - Ford 2000 Focus Owner's Manual

A difficulty with the system is
indicated by one or more of the
following:
The readiness light will either
flash or stay lit.
The readiness light will not
illuminate immediately after
ignition is turned on.
A series of five beeps will be
heard. The tone pattern will repeat
periodically until the program and
light are repaired.
If any of these things happen, even
intermittently, have the SRS
serviced at your dealership or by a
qualified technician immediately.
Unless serviced, the system may
not function properly in the event
of a collision.

Side air bag system

(if equipped)
Do not use accessory seat
covers. The use of
accessory seat covers may
prevent the deployment of the
side air bags and increase the risk
of injury in an accident.
Do not lean your head on
the door; the side air bag
could injure you as it deploys
from the side of the seatback.
