2014 FORD FUSION (AMERICAS) ECU

WARNINGS
Do not lean your head on the door.The side curtain airbag could injureyou as it deploys from the headliner.
Do not attempt to service, repair, ormodify the side curtain airbags, itsfuses, the A, B, or C pillar trim, or theheadliner on a vehicle containing sidecurtain airbags. Contact your authorizeddealer as soon as possible.
All occupants of the vehicle includingthe driver should always wear theirsafety belts even when an airbagsupplemental restraint system and sidecurtain airbag is provided.
To reduce risk of injury, do notobstruct or place objects in thedeployment path of the side curtainairbag.
If the side curtain airbags havedeployed, the side curtain airbagswill not function again. The sidecurtain airbags (including the A, B and Cpillar trim and headliner) must beinspected and serviced by an authorizeddealer. If the side curtain airbag is notreplaced, the unrepaired area will increasethe risk of injury in a crash.
The side curtain airbags will deploy duringsignificant side crashes. The side curtainairbags are mounted to the roof side-railsheet metal, behind the headliner, aboveeach row of seats. In certain sidewayscrashes, the side curtain airbag on theimpacted side of the vehicle will beactivated. The side curtain airbags aredesigned to inflate between the sidewindow area and occupants to furtherenhance protection provided in side impactcrashes.
The system consists of the following:
•Side curtain airbags located above thetrim panels over the front and rear sidewindows identified by a label orwording on the headliner or roof-pillartrim.
•A flexible headliner which opens abovethe side doors to allow side air curtaindeployment.
Crash sensors and monitoringsystem with readiness indicator.See Crash Sensors and AirbagIndicator (page 42).
Children 12 years old and under shouldalways be properly restrained in the backseats. The side curtain airbags will notinterfere with children restrained using aproperly installed child or booster seatbecause it is designed to inflate downwardfrom the headliner above the doors alongthe side window opening.
The design and development of the sidecurtain airbags included recommendedtesting procedures that were developedby a group of automotive safety expertsknown as the Side Airbag TechnicalWorking Group. These recommendedtesting procedures help reduce the risk ofinjuries related to the deployment of sidecurtain airbags.

CRASH SENSORS AND
AIRBAG INDICATOR
WARNING
Modifying or adding equipment tothe front end of the vehicle (includingframe, bumper, front end bodystructure and tow hooks) may affect theperformance of the airbag system,increasing the risk of injury. Do not modifythe front end of the vehicle.
Your vehicle has a collection of crash andoccupant sensors which provideinformation to the restraints controlmodule. The restraints control moduledeploys (activates) the front safety beltpretensioners, driver airbag, passengerairbag, knee airbag(s), seat mounted sideairbags, side curtain airbags and optionalrear inflatable safety belts. Based on thetype of crash (frontal impact or sideimpact), the restraints control module willdeploy the appropriate safety devices.
The restraints control module alsomonitors the readiness of the above safetydevices plus the crash and occupantsensors. The readiness of the safetysystem is indicated by a warning indicatorlight in the instrument cluster or by abackup tone if the warning light is notworking. Routine maintenance of theairbag is not required.
A difficulty with the system is indicated byone or more of the following:
The readiness light will notilluminate immediately after theignition is turned on.
•The readiness light will either flash orstay lit.
•A series of five beeps will be heard. Thetone pattern will repeat periodicallyuntil the problem, the light or both arerepaired.
If any of these things happen, evenintermittently, have the supplementalrestraint system serviced at an authorizeddealer immediately. Unless serviced, thesystem may not function properly in theevent of a crash.
The safety belt pretensioners and the frontairbag supplemental restraint system aredesigned to activate when the vehiclesustains frontal deceleration sufficient tocause the restraints control module todeploy a safety device.
The fact that the safety belt pretensionersor front airbags did not activate for bothfront seat occupants in a crash does notmean that something is wrong with thesystem. Rather, it means the restraintscontrol module determined the accidentconditions (crash severity, belt usage)were not appropriate to activate thesesafety devices.
•The design of the front airbags is toactivate only in frontal and near-frontalcrashes (not rollovers, side impacts orrear impacts) unless the crash causessufficient frontal deceleration.
•The safety belt pretensioners andoptional rear inflatable safety belts aredesigned to activate in frontal,near-frontal and side crashes.
•The knee airbag(s) may deploy basedon crash severity and occupantconditions.
•The design of the side airbags and sidecurtain airbags is to inflate in certainside impact crashes. Side airbags andside curtain airbags may activate inother types of crashes if the vehicleexperiences sufficient sideways motionor deformation.
