FORD 2003 Focus - Manual (Page 76)

Returning the seatback to the upright position
Fold back the seatback until it locks with a distinct “click.” Do not place
any objects behind the seat which could prevent the seat from locking.
When returning the seats back to their original positions, make
sure they are fully locked and that the safety restraints are
positioned in front of the seatback. Reinstall head restraints (if
equipped).
Note that the center rear seat belt cannot be pulled out until the
seatback has latched completely.
Folding the seat cushion and seatback forward
Pull the loop between the respective
seat cushion and seatback, and fold
the seat cushion on that side
forward.
Remove the head restraint(s) (if
equipped) of the rear seat, and fold
the seatback forward.
Stow the head restraint(s) in the
plastic retainers provided in the now
upright underside of the seat
cushion, as shown on the decal.
When returning the seats to their
original positions, make sure the
safety belts will function properly
and are positioned in front of the seatback.

Personal Safety System
The Personal Safety System provides an improved overall level of frontal
crash protection to front seat occupants and is designed to help further
reduce the risk of air bag-related injuries. The system is able to analyze
different occupant conditions and crash severity before activating the
appropriate safety devices to help better protect a range of occupants in
a variety of frontal crash situations.
Your vehicle’s Personal Safety System consists of:
• Driver and passenger dual-stage air bag supplemental restraints.
