Safety belt maintenance
Inspect the safety belt systems periodically to make
sure they work properly and are not damaged.
Inspect the safety belts to make sure there are no
nicks, tears or cuts. Replace if necessary. All safety
belt assemblies, including retractors, buckles, front
seat belt buckle assemblies, buckle support
assemblies (slide bar-if equipped), shoulder belt
height adjusters (if equipped), shoulder belt guide
on seatback (if equipped), child safety seat tether
bracket assemblies (if equipped), LATCH child seat
tether anchors and lower anchors (if equipped), and
attaching hardware, should be inspected after a
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.
Failure to inspect and if necessary replace
the safety belt assembly under the above
conditions could result in severe personal injuries
in the event of a collision.
Refer toCleaning and maintaining the safety
beltsin theMaintenacne and Caresection.

AIMING THE HEADLAMPS
The headlamps on your vehicle are properly aimed
at the assembly plant.
If your vehicle has been in an accident the alignment
of your headlamps should be checked by a qualified
service technician.
Headlamp vertical aim adjustment
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface approximately
7.6 meters (25 feet) from a vertical wall or screen
directly in front of it.
²(A) Eight feet
²(B) Center height of lamp to ground
²(C) Twenty five feet
²(D) Horizontal reference line
2. Measure the height from the center of your
headlamp to the ground and mark a 2.4 meter (8
foot) horizontal reference line on the vertical wall or
screen at this height (a piece of masking tape works
well). The center of the lamp is marked by a 3.0 mm
circle on the headlamp lens.
