Transit (TTH) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, First Printing Introduction

Switching the Belt-Minder on and off
WARNING
While the system allows you to
switch it off, this system is designed
to improve your chances of being
safely belted and surviving a crash. We
recommend you leave the system
switched on. To reduce the risk of injury,
do not switch the system on or off while
driving your vehicle. Read Steps 1 - 4 thoroughly before
proceeding with the programming
procedure.
The system can be switched on and off by
carrying out the following procedure:
Before following the procedure, make sure
that:
•
The parking brake is set.
• The transmission selector lever is in
position park (P).
• The ignition is switched off.
• The driver safety belt is unbuckled.
1. Switch the ignition on. Do not start the
engine.
2. Wait until the safety belt warning light turns off (about one minute). After
Step 2, wait an additional five seconds
before proceeding with Step 3. Once
Step 3 is started, the procedure must
be completed within 30 seconds.
3. Buckle then unbuckle the driver safety
belt three times at a moderate speed,
ending in the unbuckled state. After
Step 3, the safety belt warning light will
illuminate.
4. While the safety belt warning light is illuminated, buckle then unbuckle the
driver safety belt. After Step 4, the
safety belt warning light will flash for
confirmation. •
This will disable the feature if it is
currently enabled.
• This will enable the feature if it is
currently disabled.
CHILD RESTRAINT AND
SEATBELT MAINTENANCE
Inspect the vehicle safety belts and child
safety seat systems periodically to make
sure they work properly and are not
damaged. Inspect the vehicle and child
seat safety belts to make sure there are no
nicks, tears or cuts. Replace if necessary.
All vehicle safety belt assemblies, including
retractors, buckles, front safety belt buckle
assemblies, buckle support assemblies
(slide bar-if equipped), shoulder belt
height adjusters (if equipped), shoulder
belt guide on seat back (if equipped), child
safety seat LATCH and tether anchors, and
attaching hardware, should be inspected
after a crash. Read the child restraint
manufacturer's instructions for additional
inspection and maintenance information
specific to the child restraint.
Ford Motor Company recommends that
all safety belt assemblies in use in vehicles
involved in a crash be replaced. However,
if the crash was minor and an authorized
dealer 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 crash
should also be inspected and replaced if
either damage or improper operation is
noted.
Properly care for safety belts. See Vehicle
Care
(page 234).
