•
Wait at least two minutes and verify
that the airbag readiness light is no
longer illuminated.
•
If the airbag readiness light remains
illuminated, this may or may not be a
problem due to the front passenger
sensing system.
Do not attempt to repair or service the
system. Take your vehicle immediately to
an authorized dealer.
If it is necessary to modify an advanced
front airbag system to accommodate a
person with disabilities, contact the Ford
Customer Relationship Center. See
SIDE AIRBAGS
WARNING:
Do not place objects
or mount equipment on or near the
airbag cover, on the side of the seatbacks
(of the front seats), or in front seat areas
that may come into contact with a
deploying airbag. Failure to follow these
instructions may increase the risk of
personal injury in the event of a crash.
WARNING:
Do not use accessory
seat covers. The use of accessory seat
covers may prevent the deployment of
the side airbags and increase the risk of
injury in an accident.
WARNING:
Do not lean your head
on the door. The side airbag could injure
you as it deploys from the side of the
seatback.
WARNING:
Do not attempt to
service, repair, or modify the airbag, its
fuses or the seat cover on a seat
containing an airbag as you could be
seriously injured or killed. Contact your
authorized dealer as soon as possible.
WARNING:
If the side airbag has
deployed, the airbag will not function
again. The side airbag system (including
the seat) must be inspected and serviced
by an authorized dealer. If the airbag is
not replaced, the unrepaired area will
increase the risk of injury in a crash.
The side airbags are located on the
outboard side of the seatbacks of the front
seats. In certain sideways crashes, the
airbag on the side affected by the crash
will be inflated. The airbag was designed
to inflate between the door panel and
occupant to further enhance the protection
provided occupants in side impact crashes.
E152533
