2005 Ford Taurus Owners Manual

Seating and Safety Restraints
Do not lean  your head on  the door. The side  airbag could injure
you as it  deploys from the  side of the seatback.
Do not attempt  to service, repair,  or modify the airbag  SRS, its
fuses or the  seat cover on  a seat containing an  airbag. See your
Ford or Lincoln  Mercury dealer.
All occupants of  the vehicle should  always wear their safety  belts
even when an  airbag SRS is  provided.
Howdoesthesideairbagsystemwork?
The side airbag  system consists of
the following:
An inflatable nylon  bag (airbag)
with a gas  generator concealed
behind the outboard  bolster of
the driver and  front passenger
seatbacks.
A special seat  cover designed to
allow airbag deployment.
The same warning  light,
electronic control and  diagnostic unit as  used for the front  airbags.
Two crash sensors  located on the  pillars between the front  and rear
doors (one on  each side of  the vehicle).
Side airbags, in  combination with seat  belts, can help reduce  the risk of
severe injuries in  the event of  a significant side impact  collision.
The side airbags  are fitted on  the outboard side of  the seatbacks of  the
front seats. In  certain lateral collisions,  the airbag on the  side affected by
the collision will  be inflated, even  if the respective seat  is not occupied.
The airbag was  designed to inflate  between the door panel  and occupant
to further enhance  the protection provided  occupants in side impact
collisions.
The airbag SRS  is designed to  activate when the vehicle  sustains lateral
deceleration sufficient to  cause the sensors  to close an electrical  circuit
that initiates airbag  inflation.
The fact that  the airbags did  not inflate in a  collision does not  mean that
something is wrong  with the system.  Rather, it means the  forces were
