To fold up the child seat

1. Fold the protector flap onto the child seat cushion.

2. Push the built-in child seat up ensuring the wire handle on the bottom
of the child seat engages into the slot under the head restraint.

3. Ensure that the child seat is fully engaged into the seatback. The head
restraint will not operate if the child seat is not properly stowed.

Inspecting the built-in child seat after a collision

Inspect all built-in child restraints, including seats, buckles, retractors,
and seat latches. Interlocks and attaching hardware should be inspected
by a qualified technician after any collision. If the child seat was in use
during a collision, Ford recommends replacing it. Built-in child restraints
not in use during a collision should be inspected and replaced if either
damage or improper operation is noted.
