SAFETY
All restraint devices must bear the
certification data, together with the
control mark, on a label solidly fixed to
the child restraint system which must
never be removed.
Lineaccessori Ford includes child
restraint systems for each weight group.
These devices are recommended having
been specifically designed for Ford cars.
GROUP 0 and 0+
Babies up to 13 kg must be carried rear
facing on a cradle restraint system,
which, supporting the head, does not
induce stress on the neck in the event
of sharp decelerations.
The cradle is restrained by the car seat
belts, as shown in
fig. 5 and in turn it must restrain the
child with its own belts.

WARNING
FITTING UNIVERSAL CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
(WITH SEAT BELTS)
The passenger airbag must
be deactivated for the first
time by a Ford Dealership.
It is recommended to contact the
Service network to enable the
airbag deactivation function.
WARNING
SEVERE DANGER:
When an active passenger
airbag is fitted, DO NOT install
rear facing child restraint systems
on the front seat. Deployment of
the airbag in an accident could
cause fatal injuries to the child
regardless of the severity of the
collision. It is advisable to always
carry children in a child restraint
system on the rear seat, which is
the most protected position in the
event of a collision.
WARNING
Should it be necessary to
carry a child on the
passenger side front seat in a rear
facing child restraint system, the
passenger side front airbag and side
bag (for versions/markets, where
provided) must be deactivated
through the Setup menu.
Deactivation should be verified by
checking whether the warning light is
switched on in the dashboard.
Further, the front passenger’s seat
shall be adjusted in the most
backward position to prevent any
contact of the child’s seat.
