File:ltsrf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:26 1996 *[SR02400(BEF )05/95] RWARNING Passengers should not be allowed to ride in the cargo area. Persons not riding in a seat with a fastened seat belt are much more likely to suffer serious injury in a collision. Cargo should always be secured to prevent it from shifting and causing damage to the vehicle or harm to passengers. *[SR02500(BEF )05/95] RWARNING Never let a passenger hold a child on his or her lap while the vehicle is moving.
File:ltsrf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:26 1996 *[SR02900(BEF )05/95] RWARNING Lock the doors of your vehicle before driving to lessen the risk of the door coming open in a collision. [SR02910( EF )04/95] Your vehicle is equipped with a dual locking mode retractor on the shoulder belt portion of the combination lap/shoulder safety belt for front seat passenger and rear seat outboard passengers.
File:ltsrf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:26 1996 [SR03030(BEF )04/95] To switch the retractor from the “emergency locking mode” to the “automatic locking mode,” perform the following steps: [SR03040(BEF )04/95] 1. Buckle the lap/shoulder combination belt. [SR03050(BEF )04/95] 2. Grasp the shoulder portion of the belt and pull downward until all of the belt is extracted, and when allowed to retract, a clicking sound will be heard.
File:ltsrf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:26 1996 *[SR03135(BEF )05/95] After you get into your vehicle, close the door and lock it. Then adjust the seat to the position that suits you best. [SR03137(BEF )05/95] To fasten the belt *[SR03140(BEF )05/95] Pull the combination lap/shoulder belt from the retractor so that the shoulder portion of the belt crosses your shoulder and chest. Be sure the belt is not twisted. If it is, remove the twist.
File:ltsrf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:26 1996 *[SR03165(BEF )05/95] To tighten the lap portion of the belt, pull up on the shoulder belt until it fits you snugly. The belt should rest as low on your hips as possible. [SR03175(BEF )05/95] RWARNING Use the shoulder belt on the outside shoulder only. Never wear the shoulder belt under the arm. Never swing it around the neck over the inside shoulder. Never use a single belt for more than one person.

However, use these figures and this procedure to correct a twisted safety shoulder belt at any outboard seating position that has a “D” ring.
File:ltsrf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:26 1996 1. Grasp the belt webbing at the “D” ring. See Figure 2. [SR09525(BEF )05/95] 2. Rotate and fold the belt webbing over itself as required to remove the twist. [SR09527(BEF )05/95] 3. Feed the folded portion of the belt through the “D” ring.
File:ltsrf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:26 1996 [SR09530(BEF )05/95] 4. When completed, the safety belt should look like Figure 3.

Manufacturer identification is located at the end of the webbing on the label.
File:ltsrf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:26 1996 *[SR09800(BEF )05/95] RWARNING Failure to follow these instructions will affect the performance of the safety belts and increase the risk of personal injury. % Safety Belt Maintenance [SR10000(BEF )02/95] Check your safety belt system periodically to make sure that it works properly and isn’t damaged. If the webbing shows any wear, nicks or cuts, have it examined by a qualified technician to determine if replacement is necessary.
File:ltsrf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:26 1996 *[SR10300(BEF )04/95] Air Bag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) *[SR10450( F )06/93] Driver air bag (F-150 — F-250 under 8500 lbs. only) *[SR10500(B F )03/95] Your vehicle is equipped with a driver side air bag supplemental restraint system located in the steering wheel and identified by the letters “SRS” in the center of the wheel.
File:ltsrf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:26 1996 *[SR10900(BEF )01/95] There are four very important reasons to use safety belts even with an air bag system.
File:ltsrf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:26 1996 % How the Air Bag Supplemental Restraint System Operates *[SR11900(BEF )10/94] The air bag supplemental restraint system has two main parts. One part is the air bag system with the driver air bag and inflator located in the center of the steering wheel. The second part is the electrical system, which has impact sensors, and a diagnostic module, and backup power supply.
File:ltsrf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:26 1996 *[SR12200(BEF )05/95] The air bag system uses a readiness light and a tone to indicate the condition of the system. The readiness light is in the instrument cluster. When you turn the ignition to the ON position, this light will illuminate for approximately six (6) seconds and then turn off. This indicates that the system is operating normally. NOTE: Maintenance of the air bag system is not required.
File:ltsrf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:26 1996 [SR12700(BEF )04/95] The air bag system is designed to stay out of sight until it is activated. The air bag system is designed to deploy in frontal and front-angled collisions more severe than hitting a parked vehicle of similar size and weight head-on at about 28 mph (45 km/h). Because the system senses the crash severity rather than vehicle speed, some frontal collisions at speeds above 28 mph (45 km/h) will not inflate the air bag.
File:ltsrf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:26 1996 *[SR12820(BEF )03/95] 4. *[SR12840(BEF )03/95] The surface of the air bags and the vehicle interior may be dusted with a powdery residue. The powder is cornstarch or talcum powder, which is used to lubricate the air bag as it inflates, and sodium compounds such as sodium carbonates (e.g., baking soda), and possibly a very small amount of sodium hydroxide that may be irritating to the skin and eyes, but is not toxic.
File:ltsrf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:26 1996 *[SR13000(BEF )03/93] half page art:0011063-A Inflated driver side air bag *[SR13500(BEF )05/95] RWARNING If the air bag is inflated, THE AIR BAG WILL NOT FUNCTION AGAIN AND MUST BE REPLACED IMMEDIATELY. If the air bag is not replaced, the unrepaired area will increase the risk of injury in a collision.
File:ltsrf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:26 1996 *[SR13600(BEF )03/95] Disposal of supplemental air bag equipped vehicles *[SR13700(BEF )03/95] For disposal of air bags or air bag equipped vehicles, see your local Ford or Lincoln-Mercury dealer, or refer to the procedures in the 1995 Ford Service Manual. Information on how to order a service manual is available at an authorized Ford or Lincoln-Mercury dealer.

File:ltstf.ex Update:Thu May 9 15:26:52 1996 *[ST07300(BEF )05/95] A computer system controls the engine’s idle speed. When you start your vehicle, the engine’s idle speed normally runs higher than when it’s warmed up. These faster engine speeds will make your vehicle move slightly faster than its normal idle speed. It should, however, slow down after a short time. If it does not, have the idle speed checked.
