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
providing a tether anchorage. For more
information on top tether straps see Attaching
Safety Seats With Tether Straps in this chapter.
When installing a child safety seat, be sure to use
the correct safety belt buckle for that seating
position, and make sure the tongue is securely
fastened in the buckle.
/!\WARNING
REAR-FACING INFANT SEATS
SHOULD NEVER BE USED IN THE
FRONT SEAT. REAR-FACING INFANT
SEATS MUST ALWAYS BE PLACED IN
THE REAR SEAT. Failure to follow these
instructions could result in serious injury.
When using forward-facing child seats in
the front seat, always move the passenger
seat as far back from the instrument panel
as possible. Failure to follow these
warnings could result in injury to the
child.
All child restraint systems are designed to be
secured in vehicle seats by lap belts or by the lap
portion of a lap-shoulder belt.
