2003 Ford Taurus Owners Manual

SeatingandSafetyRestraints
Do not use  accessory seat covers.  The use of accessory  seat
covers may prevent  the deployment of  the side air bags  and
increase the risk  of injury in  an accident.
Do not lean  your head on  the door. The side  air bag could  injure
you as it  deploys from the  side of the seatback.
Do not attempt  to service, repair,  or modify the air  bag SRS, its
fuses or the  seat cover on  a seat containing an  air bag. See  your
Ford or Lincoln  Mercury dealer.
All occupants of  the vehicle should  always wear their safety  belts
even when an  air bag SRS  is provided.
Howdoesthesideairbagsystemwork?
The side air  bag system consists  of
the following:
An inflatable nylon  bag (air bag)
with a gas  generator concealed
behind the outboard  bolster of
the driver and  front passenger
seatbacks.
A special seat  cover designed to
allow air bag  deployment.
The same warning  light,
electronic control and  diagnostic unit as  used for the front  air bags.
Two crash sensors  located on the  pillars between the front  and rear
doors.
Side air bags,  in combination with  seat belts, can help  reduce the risk  of
severe injuries in  the event of  a significant side impact  collision.
The side air  bags are fitted  on the outboard side  of the seatbacks  of the
front seats. In  certain lateral collisions,  the air bag on  the side affected
by the collision  will be inflated,  even if the respective  seat is not
occupied. The air  bag was designed  to inflate between the  door panel
and occupant to  further enhance the  protection provided occupants in
side impact collisions.
