WARNING
Do not modify the supplementary restraint system:
Modifying the components or wiring of the supplementary restraint system is
dangerous. You could accidentally activate it or make it inoperable. Do not make any
modifications to the supplementary restraint system. This includes installing trim,
badges, or anything else over the air bag modules. It also includes installing extra
electrical equipment on or near system components or wiring. An Authorised Ford
Repairer can provide the special care needed in the removal and installation of seats.
It is important to protect the air bag wiring and connections to assure that the bags do
not accidentally deploy and that the seats retain an undamaged air bag connection.
NOTE
l
When an air bag deploys, a loud inflation noise can be heard and some smoke will be
released. Neither is likely to cause injury, however, the texture of the air bags may
cause light skin injuries on body parts not covered with clothing through friction.
l
Should you sell your Ford, we urge you to tell the new owner of its air bag systems
and that familiarization with all instructions about them, from the Owner's Manual, is
important.
l
This highly-visible label warns against the use of rear-facing child-restraint systems in
the seat.
