Seating and Safety Restraints
• Review and follow
the information
presented in the Air
bag supplemental
restraint system
(SRS) section in this
chapter.
• Use the correct
safety belt buckle for that seating position (the
buckle closest to the direction the tongue is
coming from).
• Insert the belt tongue into the proper buckle until
you hear a snap and feel it latch. Make sure the
tongue is securely fastened in the buckle.
• Keep the buckle release button pointing up and
away from the safety seat, with the tongue
between the child seat and the release button, to
prevent accidental unbuckling.
• Place seat back in upright position.
• Put the safety belt in the automatic locking mode.
Refer to Automatic locking mode (passenger
side front and outboard rear seating positions)
(if equipped) section in this chapter.
• LATCH lower anchors are recommended for use
by children up to 22 kg (48 pounds) in a child
restraint. Top tether anchors can be used for
children up to 27 kg (60 pounds) in a child
restraint, and to provide upper torso restraint for
children up to 36 kg (80 pounds) using an upper
torso harness and a belt-positioning booster.
Ford recommends the use of a child safety seat
having a top tether strap. Install the child safety seat
in a seating position with LATCH and tether
anchors. For more information on top tether straps
and anchors, refer to Attaching safety seats with
tether straps in this chapter. For more information
of LATCH anchors refer to Attaching safety seats
with LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children) attachments in this chapter.
