2005 Ford Taurus Owners Manual

Seating and Safety Restraints
Before you reach  and latch a  combination lap and shoulder  belt having
an adjust tongue  into the buckle,  you may have to  lengthen the lap  belt
portion of it.  To lengthen the  lap belt, pull some  webbing out of  the
shoulder belt retractor.  While holding the  webbing below the tongue,
grasp the tongue  so that it  is parallel to the  webbing and slide  the
tongue upward. Provide  enough length so  that the tongue can  reach the
buckle.
To fasten the  belt, pull the  combination lap and shoulder  belt from the
retractor so that  the shoulder belt  portion of the safety  belt crosses your
shoulder and chest.  Be sure the  belt is not twisted.  If the belt  is twisted,
remove the twist.  Insert the tongue  into the proper buckle  for your
seating position until  you hear a  snap and feel it  latch. Make sure  the
tongue is securely  fastened to the  buckle by pulling on  the tongue.
The lap belt  should fit snugly  and as low as  possible around the
hips, not across  the waist.
Front and rear  seat occupants, including  pregnant women,
should wear safety  belts for optimum  protection in an accident.
Each seating position  in your vehicle  has a specific safety  belt
assembly which is  made up of  one buckle and one  tongue that
are designed to  be used as  a pair. 1) Use  the shoulder belt  on the
outside shoulder only.  Never wear the  shoulder belt under the  arm. 2)
Never swing the  safety belt around  your neck over the  inside shoulder.
3)
Never use a  single belt for  more than one person.
Due to folding  rear seats, sometimes  the buckles and tongues  toward the
center of the  vehicle may be  hidden by the rear  edge of the  seat cushion.
Pull them out  so they will  be accessible.
While you are  fastened in the  seat belt, the shoulder  belt adjusts to  your
movement. However, if  you brake hard,  turn hard or your  vehicle
receives an impact  of 5 mph  (8 km/h) or more,  the safety belt  will
become locked and  help reduce your  forward movement.
To unfasten the  belt, push the  red release button on  the end of  the
buckle. This allows  the tongue to  unlatch from the buckle.  While the belt
retracts, guide the  tongue to its  original position to prevent  it from
striking you or  the vehicle.
