DATA RECORDING
A large number of electronic components
of your vehicle contain data storage
modules temporarily or permanently
storing technical data about the condition
of the vehicle, events and errors.
In general, this technical information
documents the condition of parts,
modules, systems or the environment:
• Operating conditions of system
components (e.g. filling levels).
• Status messages of the vehicle and its
individual components (e.g. number of
wheel revolutions/rotational speed,
deceleration, lateral acceleration).
• Malfunction and defects in important
system components (e.g. lighting and
brake system).
• Vehicle reactions in particular driving
situations (e.g. inflation of an airbag,
activation of the stability regulation
system).
• Environmental conditions (e.g.
temperature).
These data are exclusively technical and
help identification and correction of errors
as well as optimisation of vehicle
functions. Motion profiles indicating
travelled routes cannot be created with
these data.

SAFETY CANOPY™ (If Equipped)
WARNINGS
Do not place objects or mount
equipment on or near the headliner
at the side rail that may come into
contact with a deploying curtain airbag.
Failure to follow these instructions may
increase the risk of personal injury in the
event of a crash. Do not lean your head on the door.
The safety canopy could injure you
as it deploys from the headliner.
Do not attempt to service, repair, or
modify the safety canopy, its fuses,
the pillar trims, or the headliner on a
vehicle with a safety canopy as you could
be seriously injured or killed. Contact your
authorized dealer as soon as possible. All occupants of your vehicle
including the driver should always
wear their safety belts even when an
airbag supplemental restraint system and
safety canopy are provided. Failure to wear
your safety belt correctly could seriously
increase the risk of personal injury or death. To reduce risk of personal injury, do
not obstruct or place objects in the
deployment path of the safety
canopy. If a safety canopy deploys it will not
function again. The safety canopy,
including the pillar trims and
headliner, must be inspected and serviced
by an authorized dealer. If the safety
canopy is not replaced, the unrepaired area
will increase the risk of personal injury in a
crash. The Safety Canopy will deploy during
significant side crashes or when a certain
likelihood of a rollover event is detected
by the rollover sensor. The Safety Canopy
is mounted to the roof side rail behind the
headliner and above each row of seats. In
certain sideways crashes or rollover events,
the Safety Canopy will be activated,
regardless of which seats are occupied.
The Safety Canopy is designed to inflate
between the side window area and
occupants to further enhance protection
provided in side impact crashes and
rollover events.
The system consists of the following:
•
Safety canopy 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 safety canopy
deployment •
The crash sensors and monitoring
system have a readiness indicator. See
Crash Sensors and Airbag Indicator
(page 42
).
41 Transit (TTH) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 03/2014Supplementary Restraints SystemE75004

Children 12 years old and under should
always be properly restrained in the rear
seats. The safety canopy 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.
The design and development of the safety
canopy 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 personal
injury related to the deployment of a safety
canopy.
CRASH SENSORS AND
AIRBAG INDICATOR
WARNING
Do not modify the front end of your
vehicle. Adding equipment to the
front of the vehicle, including the
frame, bumper, front body structure or
recovery hook may affect the performance
of the airbag system, increasing the risk of
personal injury. The vehicle has a collection of crash
sensors which provide information to the
supplemental restraint system control
module. The system will deploy the front
safety belt pretensioners, driver airbag,
passenger airbag, seat mounted side
airbags or safety canopy based on the type
of crash, for example frontal impact or side
impact. The supplemental restraint system
control module will deploy the appropriate
safety devices. The supplemental restraint system control
module also monitors the readiness of the
above safety devices plus the crash
sensors. The readiness of the
supplemental restraint system is indicated
by a warning lamp in the instrument cluster
or by a backup tone if the warning lamp is
not working. Routine maintenance of the
airbags is not required.
If a fault is present in the supplemental
restraint system it is indicated by one or
more of the following:
The warning lamp will not
illuminate when you switch the
ignition on.
• The warning lamp will either flash or
stay illuminated.
• A series of five beeps will be heard. The
tone pattern will repeat periodically
until the fault, the warning lamp or
both are repaired.
If the above occurs, even intermittently,
have the system checked by an authorized
dealer immediately. Unless repaired, the
system may not operate correctly in the
event of a crash.
The safety belt pretensioners and the front
airbags are designed to deploy when the
vehicle sustains longitudinal deceleration
sufficient to cause the supplemental
restraint system control module to deploy
a safety device.
The fact that the safety belt pretensioners
or front airbags did not deploy for all front
seat occupants in a crash does not mean
there is a fault with the system. The
supplemental restraint system control
module determines crash conditions,
severity and safety belt usage to deploy
the appropriate safety devices.

POWER WINDOWS
WARNINGS
To avoid risk of injury, do not leave
children or pets unattended in your
vehicle.
When closing the power windows,
you should verify they are free of
obstructions and make sure that
children and pets are not in the proximity
of the window openings. Press the switch to open the window. The
window will stop if you release the switch
before the window fully opens.
Lift the switch to close the window. The
window will stop if you release the switch
before the window fully closes.
Note:
You may hear a pulsing noise when
just one of the windows is open. Lower the
opposite window slightly to reduce this
noise.
Accessory Delay (If Equipped)
You can use the window switches for
several minutes when you switch the
ignition off or until you open either front
door.
Driver Side One-Touch Down
Press the switch fully and release it. Press
again or lift it to stop the window. Driver Side One-Touch Up
Lift the switch fully and release it. Press or
lift it again to stop the window.
Bounce-Back
The window will automatically stop and
reverse some distance if it detects an
obstacle while closing.
Overriding the Bounce-Back Feature
WARNING
When you override the bounce-back
feature the window will not reverse
if it detects an obstacle. Take care
when closing the windows to avoid
personal injury or damage to your vehicle. To override this protection feature when
there is a resistance, for example in winter:
1.
Close the window twice until it reaches
the point of resistance and let it
reverse.
2. Close the window a third time to the point of resistance. The bounce-back
feature is now disabled and you can
close the window manually. The
window will go past the point of
resistance and you can close it fully.
If the window does not close after the third
attempt the system requires service.
Resetting the Bounce-Back Feature WARNING
The bounce-back feature remains
turned off until it is reset.
1. Lift and hold the switch until the
window is fully closed.
2. Release the switch.
3. Lift the switch again for one more second.
70 Transit (TTH) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 03/2014 Windows and MirrorsE146043

4. Release the switch.
5. Lift the switch again for one more
second.
6. Open the window and then try to close
using the one-touch feature.
7. Repeat the procedure if the window does not close using the one-touch
feature.
Note: If you have disconnected the battery,
you must reset the bounce-back memory.
