Seats; Sitting In The Correct Position; Head Restraints - Ford 2015 Figo Owner's Manual

SITTING IN THE CORRECT
POSITION
WARNINGS
Sitting improperly, out of position or
with the seat back reclined too far
can take weight off the seat cushion
and affect the decision of the passenger
sensing system, resulting in serious injury
or death in the event of a collision. Always
sit upright against your seat back, with your
feet on the floor.
Do not recline the seat back as this
can cause the occupant to slide
under the safety belt, resulting in
serious injury in the event of a collision.
Do not place objects higher than the
seat back to reduce the risk of
serious injury in the event of a
collision or during heavy braking.
E68595
The correct use of these components
provide better protection for the occupants
in case of accident.
WARNING
Never adjust the seats when the
vehicle is moving.

Seats

Note: The seat belt must be used properly
to hold the body in a position to allow the
airbag to achieve maximum effect.
Correct Driving Position
• Sit in the most vertical position
possible, and with the seat backrest
not reclined by more than 30 degrees.
• Adjust the head restraints.
• Do not place the front seat much too
close to the dashboard. The same
applies to the front passenger.
• The driver should hold the steering
wheel with the arms slightly bent, as
well as the legs, so that the pedals can
be fully pressed.
• Position the shoulder strap of the
safety belt over the center of your
shoulder and position the lap strap
tightly across your hips.
Make sure that your driving position is
comfortable and that you can maintain full
control of your vehicle.

HEAD RESTRAINTS

Fully adjust the head restraint before
you sit in or operate your vehicle. This
will help minimize the risk of neck
injury in the event of a collision. Do not
adjust the head restraint when your vehicle
is moving.
The head restraint is a safety device.
Whenever possible it should be
installed and properly adjusted when
the seat is occupied.
Install the head restraint properly to
help minimize the risk of neck injury
in the event of a collision.
