SeatingandSafetyRestraints
When installing a child safety seat:
•
Review and follow the information
presented in theAirBag
SupplementalRestraintSystem
section in this chapter.
•
•
Use the correct safety belt buckle
for that seating position.
Insert the belt tongue into the
proper buckle until you hear a
snap and feel it latch. Make sure
the tongue is securely fastened in
the buckle.
•
Keep the buckle release button pointing up and away from the safety
seat, with the tongue between the child seat and the release button,
to prevent accidental unbuckling.
•
•
Place seat back in upright position.
Put the safety belt in the automatic locking mode. Refer toAutomatic
lockingmode.
•
LATCH lower anchors are recommended for use by children up to 22
kg (48 pounds) in a child restraint. Top tether anchors can be used
for children up to 27 kg (60 pounds) in a child restraint, and to
provide upper torso restraint for children up to 36 kg (80 pounds)
using an upper torso harness and a belt-positioning booster.
Ford recommends the use of a child safety seat having a top tether
strap. Install the child safety seat in a seating position with LATCH and
tether anchors. For more information on top tether straps and anchors,
refer toAttachingsafetyseatswithtetherstraps in this chapter. For
more information of LATCH anchors refer toAttachingsafetyseatswith
LATCH(LowerAnchorsandTethersforChildren)attachments in this
chapter.
Carefully follow all of the manufacturer’s instructions included
with the safety seat you put in your vehicle. If you do not install
and use the safety seat properly, the child may be injured in a sudden
stop or collision.
Rear-facing child seats or infant carriers should never be placed
in the front seats.
