WARNING

Ford recommends that all safety belt
assemblies and attaching hardware
should be inspected by a qualified
technician after any collision. Safety
belt assemblies not in use during a
collision should also be inspected and
replaced if either damage or improper
operation is noted.

WARNING

Children should always ride with the
seatback in the fully upright position.

WARNING

Never let a passenger hold a child on
his or her lap while the vehicle is
moving. The passenger cannot protect
the child from injury in a collision.

WARNING

Lock the doors of your vehicle before
driving to lessen the risk of the door
coming open in a collision.
