Safety Belt Extension Assembly
*
[SR09700(ALL)07/95]
For some people, the safety belt may be too short even when it
is fully extended. You can add about eight inches (20 cm) to the
belt length with a safety belt extension assembly (part number
611C22). Safety belt extensions are available at no cost from
your dealer.
*
[SR09790(ALL)08/95]
Use only extensions manufactured by the same supplier as the
safety belt. Manufacturer identification is located at the end of
the webbing on the label. Also, use the safety belt extension
only if the safety belt is too short for you when fully extended.
Do not use extension to change the fit of the shoulder belt
across the torso.
*
[SR09800(ALL)08/95]
RWARNING
Failure to follow these instructions will affect the
performance of the safety belts and increase the risk of
personal injury.

The short plastic boot on the front safety belt at the outboard
anchor location (Regular Cab, driver; SuperCab, driver and
passenger) covers an energy absorbing sew pattern on the safety
belt. In the event of an accident, the sew pattern may release,
and the colored label (REPLACE BELT) may become visible. If
this occurs,the safety belt must be replaced.

RWARNING
FAILURE TO REPLACE THE SAFETY BELT ASSEMBLY
UNDER THE ABOVE CONDITIONS COULD RESULT
IN SEVERE PERSONAL INJURIES IN THE EVENT OF
A COLLISION.
%*
[SR10200(ALL)08/95]
All safety belt assemblies, including retractors, buckles, front
seat belt buckle support assemblies (slide bar) (if equipped),
child safety seat tether bracket assemblies (if equipped), and
attaching hardware, should be inspected after any collision. Ford
recommends that all safety belt assemblies used in vehicles
involved in a collision be replaced. However, if the collision was
minor and a qualified technician finds that the belts do not
show damage and continue to operate properly, they do not
need to be replaced. Safety belt assemblies not in use during a
collision should also be inspected and replaced if either damage
or improper operation is noted.
%*
[SR10250(ALL)06/95]
Cleaning the Safety Belts
*
[SR10275(ALL)06/95]
Clean the safety belts with any mild soap solution that is
recommended for cleaning upholstery or carpets. Do not bleach
or dye the belt webbing because this may weaken it.

Air Bag Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS)
*
[SR10800(ALL)05/95]
The driver and right front passenger air bags are Supplemental
Restraint Systems (SRS), provided at these seating positions in
addition to the lap/shoulder belt, and are designed to
supplement the protection provided to properly belted
occupants in moderate to severe frontal collisions. The
supplemental air bag system does not provide restraint to the
lower body.
