Do not put anything on or over the air bag
module. Placing objects on or over the air

bag inflation area may cause those objects to be
propelled by the air bag into your face and torso
causing serious injury.

Do not attempt to service, repair, or modify
the air bag supplemental restraint systems

or its fuses. See your Ford or Lincoln Mercury
dealer.

Modifying or adding equipment to the front
end of the vehicle (including frame, bumper,

front end body structure and tow hooks) may
affect the performance of the air bag system,
increasing the risk of injury. Do not modify the
front end of the vehicle.

Children and air bags

Children must always
be properly restrained.
Accident statistics
suggest that children
are safer when
properly restrained in
the rear seating
positions than in the
front seating position.
Failure to follow these
instructions may
increase the risk of
injury in a collision.

Air bags can kill or injure a child in a child
seat. NEVER place a rear-facing child seat

in front of an active air bag. If you must use a
forward-facing child seat in the front seat, move
the seat all the way back.
