YOUR CAR
SAFETY
The reel may lock when the car
is parked on a steep slope: this is
normal. Furthermore, the reel
mechanism locks the belt if it is pulled
sharply or in the event of sudden
braking, collisions and high-speed bends.
The rear seat is fitted with inertia
seat belts with three anchor points
and a reel.
SBR SYSTEM
The car is provided with the SBR (Seat
Belt Reminder) system, which warns
the driver and the front passenger if the
seat belt is not buckled, as follows:
❒
warning light < turns on steady
and continuous activation of the
beeper for the first 6 seconds;
❒
warning light < blinks and
intermittent activation of
the beeper for the next 90 seconds;
Contact a Ford Dealership to
deactivate/reactivate the SBR system.
the SBR system can be reactivated
through the display set-up menu if
the vehicle is equipped with
a multifunction display.
The display shows the dedicated message.
SEAT BELTS
USING THE SEAT BELTS
fig. 1
The belt should be worn keeping the
torso straight and rested against the
backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the
tongue A and insert it into the buckle
B, until hearing the locking click.
On removal, if it jams, let it rewind for
a short stretch, then pull it out again
without jerking.
To unfasten seat belts, press button C.
Guide the belt while it is rewinding
to prevent it from twisting. Through
the reel, the belt automatically adapts
to the body of the passenger wearing it,
allowing freedom of movement.
