Turning the front passenger air bags back on
The front passenger air bag remains OFF until you turn them back ON.
1. Insert the ignition key and turn
the switch to ON.
2. The OFF light will briefly
illuminate and then shut off when
the ignition is turned to ON. This
indicates that the passenger front
air bag is operational.
If the OFF light is illuminated when the front passenger air bag
ON/OFF switch is in the ON position and the ignition switch is in
ON, have the front and side passenger air bag ON/OFF switch serviced
at your Ford or Lincoln/Mercury dealer immediately.
The front passenger air bag should always be ON (the air bag OFF light
should
not be illuminated) unless the passenger is a person who meets
the requirements stated either in Category 1, 2 or 3 of the
NHTSA/Transport Canada deactivation criteria which follows.
The safety belts for the driver and right front passenger seating
positions have been specifically designed to function together
with the air bags in certain types of crashes. When you turn OFF your
air bag, you not only lose the protection of the air bag, you also may
reduce the effectiveness of your safety belt system, which was
designed to work with the air bag. If you are not a person who meets
the requirements stated in the NHTSA/Transport Canada deactivation
criteria turning OFF the air bag can increase the risk of serious injury
or death in a collision.
Always use safety belts and child restraints properly. If a child in
a rear facing infant seat must be transported in front, the
passenger air bag must be turned OFF. This is because the back of the
infant seat is too close to the inflating air bag and the risk of a fatal
injury to the infant when the air bag inflates is substantial.
The vast majority of drivers and passengers are much safer with an air
bag than without. To do their job and reduce the risk of life threatening
injuries, air bags must open with great force, and this force can pose a
potentially deadly risk in some situations, particularly when a front seat
