The front passenger sensing system usesa passenger airbag status indicator thatwill illuminate indicating that the frontpassenger frontal airbag is either ON(enabled) or OFF (disabled).
The indicator lamp is located at theoverhead console.
Note: The passenger airbag statusindicator OFF and ON indicator lamps willilluminate for a short period of time whenthe ignition is first turned on to confirm theyare functional.
The front passenger sensing system isdesigned to disable (will not inflate) thefront passenger's frontal airbag when arear facing infant seat, a forward-facingchild restraint, or a booster seat isdetected. Even with this technology,parents are strongly encouraged toalways properly restrain children in the rearseat.
•When the front passenger sensingsystem disables (will not inflate) thefront passenger frontal airbag, thepassenger airbag status indicator willilluminate the OFF lamp and stay lit toremind you that the front passengerfrontal airbag is disabled.
•If the child restraint has been installedand the passenger airbag statusindicator illuminates the ON lamp, thenturn the vehicle off, remove the childrestraint from the vehicle and reinstallthe restraint following the childrestraint manufacturer's instructions.
The front passenger sensing system isdesigned to enable (may inflate) the frontpassenger's frontal airbag anytime thesystem senses that a person of adult sizeis sitting properly in the front passengerseat.
•When the front passenger sensingsystem enables the front passengerfrontal airbag (may inflate), thepassenger airbag status indicator willilluminate the ON lamp and remainilluminated.
If a person of adult size is sitting in the frontpassenger’s seat, but the airbag offindicator lamp is lit, it is possible that theperson is not sitting properly in the seat. Ifthis happens:
•Turn the vehicle off and ask the personto place the seatback in a more uprightpositon.
•Have the person sit upright in the seat,centered on the seat cushion, with theperson’s legs comfortably extended.
•Restart the vehicle and have the personremain in this position for about twominutes. This will allow the system todetect that person and enable thepassenger’s frontal airbag.
•If the indicator OFF lamp remains liteven after this, the person should beadvised to ride in the rear seat.

After all occupants have adjusted theirseats and put on seatbelts, it is veryimportant that they continue to sitproperly. A properly seated occupant sitsupright, leaning against the seatback, andcentered on the seat cushion, with theirfeet comfortably extended on the floor.Sitting improperly can increase the chanceof injury in a crash event. For example, ifan occupant slouches, lies down, turnssideways, sits forward, leans forward orsideways, or puts one or both feet up, thechance of injury during a crash is greatlyincreased.
If you think that the status of the passengerairbag off indicator lamp is incorrect, checkfor the following:
•Objects lodged underneath the seat
•Objects between the seat cushion andthe center console
•Objects hanging off the seat back
•Objects stowed in the seat back mappocket
•Objects placed on the occupant's lap
•Cargo interference with the seat
•Other passengers pushing or pulling onthe seat
•Rear passenger feet and knees restingor pushing on the seat
The conditions listed above may cause theweight of a properly seated occupant tobe incorrectly interpreted by the frontpassenger sensing system. The person inthe front passenger seat may appearheavier or lighter due to the conditionsdescribed in the list above.
Make sure the front passengersensing system is operatingproperly. See Front PassengerSensing System (page 41).
Do not attempt to repair or service thesystem. Take your vehicle immediately toan authorized dealer.
If it is necessary to modify an advancedfront airbag system to accommodate aperson with disabilities, contact the FordCustomer Relationship Center. See FrontPassenger Sensing System (page 41).
SIDE AIRBAGS
WARNING: Do not place objectsor mount equipment on or near theairbag cover, on the side of the front orrear seatbacks, or in areas that maycome into contact with a deployingairbag. Failure to follow theseinstructions may increase the risk ofpersonal injury in the event of a crash.

If the power supply does not work after youswitch the ignition off, switch the ignitionon.Note:Do not hang any accessory from theaccessory plug.
Note:Do not use the power point over thevehicle capacity of 12 volt DC 180 watts ora fuse may blow.
Note:Always keep the power point capsclosed when not in use.
Do not insert objects other than anaccessory plug into the power point.
This damages the power point and mayblow the fuse.
Run the vehicle for full capacity use of thepower point.
To prevent the battery from running out ofcharge:

110 Volt AC Power Point (If Equipped)
WARNING: Do not keep electricaldevices plugged in the power pointwhenever the device is not in use. Do notuse any extension cord with the 110 voltAC power point, since it will defeat thesafety protection design. Doing so maycause the power point to overload dueto powering multiple devices that canreach beyond the 150 watt load limit andcould result in fire or serious injury.
Note:The power point turns off when youswitch the ignition off, or when the batteryvoltage drops below 11 volts.
