PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNINGS
Airbags do not inflate slowly or
gently, and the risk of injury from
a deploying airbag is the greatest
close to the trim covering the airbag
module. All occupants of your vehicle,
including the driver, should
always properly wear their safety
belts, even when an airbag
supplemental restraint system is
provided. Failure to properly wear your
safety belt could seriously increase
the risk of injury or death. Always transport children 12
years old and under in the back
seat and always properly use
appropriate child restraints. Failure to
follow this could seriously increase
the risk of injury or death. Never place your arm over the
airbag module as a deploying
airbag can result in serious arm
fractures or other injuries. Airbags can kill or injure a child
in a child seat. Never place a
rear-facing child seat in front of an
active airbag. If you must use a
forward-facing child seat in the front
seat, move the seat upon which the
child seat is installed all the way back. Do not attempt to service, repair,
or modify the airbag
supplemental restraint systems or its
fuses as you could be seriously injured
or killed. Contact your authorized
dealer as soon as possible. WARNINGS
Several airbag system
components get hot after
inflation. To reduce the risk of injury,
do not touch them after inflation. If the airbag has deployed, the
airbag will not function again
and must be replaced immediately. If
the airbag is not replaced, the
unrepaired area will increase the risk
of injury in a crash. The airbags are a supplemental
restraint system and are designed to
work with the safety belts to help
protect the driver and right front
passenger from certain upper body
injuries. Airbags do not inflate slowly;
there is a risk of injury from a
deploying airbag.
Note:
You will hear a loud bang and
see a cloud of harmless powdery
residue if an airbag deploys. This is
normal.
The airbags inflate and deflate rapidly
upon activation. After airbag
deployment, it is normal to notice a
smoke-like, powdery residue or smell
the burnt propellant. This may consist
of cornstarch, talcum powder (to
lubricate the bag) or sodium
compounds (for example, baking
soda) that result from the combustion
process that inflates the airbag. Small
amounts of sodium hydroxide may be
present which may irritate the skin
and eyes, but none of the residue is
toxic.

MKZ (CC9) Supplementary Restraints System

WARNINGS
Do not lean your head on the
door. The side airbag could injure
you as it deploys from the side of the
seatback. Do not attempt to service, repair,
or modify the airbag, its fuses or
the seat cover on a seat containing an
airbag as you could be seriously
injured or killed. Contact your
authorized dealer as soon as possible. If the side airbag has deployed,
the airbag will not function again.
The side airbag system (including the
seat) must be inspected and serviced
by an authorized dealer. If the airbag
is not replaced, the unrepaired area
will increase the risk of injury in a
crash. The side airbags are located on the
outboard side of the seatbacks of the
front seats. In certain sideways
crashes, the airbag on the side
affected by the crash will be inflated.
The airbag was designed to inflate
between the door panel and occupant
to further enhance the protection
provided occupants in side impact
crashes. The system consists of the following:
•
A label or embossed side panel
indicating that side airbags are
fitted to your vehicle.
• Side airbags located inside the
driver and front passenger
seatbacks.
• Front passenger sensing system. ·Crash sensors and
monitoring system with
readiness indicator. See
Crash Sensors and Airbag
Indicator (page 50).
Note: The passenger sensing system
will deactivate the passenger
seat-mounted side airbag if it detects
an empty passenger seat.
The design and development of the
side airbag system included
recommended testing procedures
that were developed by a group of
automotive safety experts known as
the Side Airbag Technical Working
Group. These recommended testing
procedures help reduce the risk of
injuries related to the deployment of
side airbags.
SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS WARNINGS
Do not place objects or mount
equipment on or near the
headliner at the siderail that may
come into contact with a deploying
side curtain airbag. Failure to follow
these instructions may increase the
risk of personal injury in the event of
a crash.

MKZ (CC9) Supplementary Restraints SystemE152533

WARNINGS
Do not lean your head on the
door. The side curtain airbag
could injure you as it deploys from the
headliner. Do not attempt to service, repair,
or modify the side curtain
airbags, its fuses, the A, B, or C pillar
trim, or the headliner on a vehicle
containing side curtain airbags.
Contact your authorized dealer as
soon as possible. All occupants of the vehicle
including the driver should
always wear their safety belts even
when an airbag supplemental
restraint system and side curtain
airbag is provided. To reduce risk of injury, do not
obstruct or place objects in the
deployment path of the side curtain
airbag. If the side curtain airbags have
deployed, the side curtain
airbags will not function again. The
side curtain airbags (including the A,
B and C pillar trim and headliner)
must be inspected and serviced by an
authorized dealer. If the side curtain
airbag is not replaced, the unrepaired
area will increase the risk of injury in a
crash. The side curtain airbags will deploy
during significant side crashes. The
side curtain airbags are mounted to
the roof side-rail sheet metal, behind
the headliner, above each row of
seats. In certain sideways crashes, the
side curtain airbag on the impacted side of the vehicle will be activated.
The side curtain airbags are designed
to inflate between the side window
area and occupants to further
enhance protection provided in side
impact crashes.
The system consists of the following:
•
Side curtain airbags located above
the trim panels over the front and
rear side windows identified by a
label or wording on the headliner
or roof-pillar trim.
• A flexible headliner which opens
above the side doors to allow side
air curtain deployment. Crash sensors and
monitoring system with
readiness indicator. See
Crash Sensors and Airbag
Indicator (page 50).
Children 12 years old and under should
always be properly restrained in the
back seats. The side curtain airbags
will not interfere with children
restrained using a properly installed
child or booster seat because it is
designed to inflate downward from
the headliner above the doors along
the side window opening.

CHANGING A FUSE
Fuses
WARNING
Always replace a fuse with one
that has the specified amperage
rating. Using a fuse with a higher
amperage rating can cause severe
wire damage and could start a fire. If electrical components in the vehicle
are not working, a fuse may have
blown. Blown fuses are identified by
a broken wire within the fuse. Check
the appropriate fuses before replacing
any electrical components.

Power Distribution Box
WARNINGS
Always disconnect the battery
before servicing high-current
fuses. To reduce risk of electrical shock,
always replace the cover to the
power distribution box before
reconnecting the battery or refilling
fluid reservoirs. The power distribution box is in the
engine compartment. It has
high-current fuses that protect your
vehicle's main electrical systems from
overloads.
If you disconnect and reconnect the
battery, you will need to reset some
features. See Changing the 12V
Battery (page 287). The high-current fuses are coded as
