2022 FORD F-600 belt

SEATBELT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Always drive and ride
with your seatback upright and the lap
belt snug and low across the hips. WARNING:
Children must always
be properly restrained. WARNING:
Do not allow a
passenger to hold a child on their lap
when your vehicle is moving. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in
personal injury or death in the event of a
sudden stop or crash. WARNING:
All occupants of your
vehicle, including the driver, should
always properly wear their seatbelts,
even when an airbag supplemental
restraint system is provided. Failure to
properly wear your seatbelt could
seriously increase the risk of injury or
death. WARNING:
It is extremely
dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside
or outside of a vehicle. In a crash, people
riding in these areas are more likely to be
seriously injured or killed. Do not allow
people to ride in any area of your vehicle
that is not equipped with seats and
seatbelts. Make sure everyone in your
vehicle is in a seat and properly using a
seatbelt. Failure to follow this warning
could result in serious personal injury or
death. WARNING:
In a rollover crash, an
unbelted person is significantly more
likely to die than a person wearing a
seatbelt. WARNING:
Each seating position
in your vehicle has a specific seatbelt
assembly made up of one buckle and
one tongue designed to be used as a pair.
Use the shoulder belt on the outside
shoulder only. Never wear the shoulder
belt under the arm. Never use a single
seatbelt for more than one person. WARNING:
Even with advanced
restraints systems, properly restrain
children 12 and under in a rear seating
position. Failure to follow this could
seriously increase the risk of injury or
death. WARNING:
Seatbelts and seats
may be hot in a vehicle that is in the
sunshine. The hot seatbelts or seats may
burn a small child. Check seat covers and
buckles before you place a child
anywhere near them. WARNING:
If your vehicle is
involved in a crash, have the seatbelts
and associated components inspected
as soon as possible. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury
or death.
All seating positions in this vehicle have
seatbelts. All occupants of the vehicle
should properly wear their seatbelts, even
when an airbag supplemental restraint
system is provided.
The seatbelt system consists of:
• Lap and shoulder seatbelts.
• A shoulder seatbelt with automatic
locking mode, except driver seatbelt.
• Height adjusters at the front outermost
seating positions.
• Seatbelt pretensioners at the front
outermost and rear outermost seating
positions.

A seatbelt warning light and
chime.
Crash sensors and monitoring
system with readiness indicator.
The seatbelt pretensioners are designed
to tighten the seatbelts when activated. In
frontal and near-frontal crashes, the
seatbelt pretensioners may be activated
alone or, if the crash is of sufficient severity,
together with the front airbags. In side
crashes and rollovers, the pretensioners
will be activated when the Safety Canopy
is activated.
FASTENING AND
UNFASTENING THE
SEATBELTS
This applies to all seating positions, except
for the front center position of Super Cab
and Crew Cab. 1. Insert the seatbelt tongue into the
buckle until you hear a snap and feel it
latch. 2. Press the button to release the
seatbelt.
Using the Seatbelt With Cinch
Tongue
This applies to the front center seating
position of Super Cab and Crew Cab.
The cinch tongue slides up and down the
seatbelt webbing when you stow the
seatbelt or when you put the seatbelts on.
When you buckle the seatbelt, the cinch
tongue allows you to shorten the lap
portion, but pinches the webbing to keep
the lap portion from getting longer. The
cinch tongue is designed to slip during a
crash, so wear the shoulder belt properly
and do not allow any slack in either the lap
or shoulder portions.
Fastening the Cinch Tongue WARNING: Always drive and ride
with your seatback upright and the lap
belt snug and low across the hips.
1. Pull the seatbelt from the retractor so that the shoulder belt portion of the
seatbelt crosses your shoulder and
chest.
2. Make sure the belt is not twisted. If the
belt is twisted, remove the twist.

3. Insert the belt tongue into the proper
buckle for your seating position until
you hear a snap and feel it latch.
4. Make sure you securely fasten the tongue to the buckle by pulling on the
tongue.
While you are fastened in the seatbelt, the
seatbelt with a cinch tongue adjusts to
your movement. However, if you brake
hard, turn hard, or if your vehicle receives
an impact of 5 mph (8 km/h) or more, the
seatbelt locks and helps reduce your
forward movement.
SENSITIVE LOCKING MODE
WHAT IS SENSITIVE LOCKING
MODE
Sensitive locking mode is a seatbelt
retractor feature that allows shoulder belt
length adjustment according to your
movements and locking in response to
vehicle movement.
HOW DOES SENSITIVE LOCKING
MODE WORK
If the driver suddenly brakes, turns a corner
sharply, or the vehicle receives an impact
of about 5 mph (8 km/h) or more, the
seatbelts lock to help reduce forward
movement of the driver and passengers.
In addition, the seatbelt retractor locks if
you pull the seatbelt webbing out too
quickly. If the retractor locks, slowly lower
the height adjuster to allow the seatbelt
to retract.
If the retractor does not unlock, pull the
seatbelt out slowly then feed a small
length of webbing back toward the stowed
position. For rear seatbelts, recline the rear seat
backrest or push the seat backrest cushion
away from the seatbelt. Feed a small
length of webbing back toward the stowed
position.
AUTOMATIC LOCKING MODE
WHAT IS AUTOMATIC LOCKING
MODE
This feature keeps the seatbelts
pre-locked. The belt still retracts to remove
any slack in the shoulder belt.
WHEN TO USE AUTOMATIC
LOCKING MODE
Use this mode any time you install a child
restraint in a front seating position in a
Regular Cab, Super Cab, Crew Cab or any
rear seating position of a Super Cab or
Crew Cab. The optional front seat center
seatbelt in the Super Cab and Crew Cab
has a cinch mechanism. Properly restrain
children 12 years old and under in a rear
seat whenever possible. See
Child Safety
(page 35).
Note: Automatic locking mode is not
available on the driver seatbelt.

fasten your seatbelt. Fit the lap portion
of the seatbelt snugly and low across
the hips. Position the shoulder portion of
the seatbelt across your chest. Pregnant
women must follow this practice. See
the following figure. Pregnant women should always wear their
seatbelt. Position the lap belt portion of a

as tight as comfort allows. Position the
shoulder belt to cross the middle of the
shoulder and the center of the chest.
ADJUSTING THE SEATBELT

CHECKING THE SEATBELTS
Check the seatbelts and child restraints
periodically to make sure they work
properly and are not damaged. Make sure
there are no nicks, tears or cuts. Replace if
necessary.
Check the following seatbelt assemblies
after a crash.
• Retractors.
• Buckles.
• Front seatbelt buckle assemblies.
55
2022 Super Duty (TFE) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202103, First-Printing SeatbeltsE71880

•
Shoulder belt height adjusters.
• Shoulder belt guide on seat backrest.
• Child restraint LATCH and tether
anchors.
• Attaching hardware.
Read the child restraint manufacturer's
instructions for additional inspection and
maintenance information specific to the
child restraint.
We recommend that all seatbelt
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. Seatbelt assemblies
not in use during a crash should also be
checked and replaced if either damage or
improper operation is noted.
Properly care for seatbelts. See Cleaning
Seatbelts (page 426).
SEATBELT EXTENSIONS WARNING:
Persons who fit into
the vehicle's seatbelt should not use an
extension. Unnecessary use could result
in serious personal injury in the event of
a crash. WARNING:
Only use extensions
provided free of charge by our dealers.
The dealer will provide an extension
designed specifically for this vehicle,
model year and seating position. The use
of an extension intended for another
vehicle, model year or seating position
may not offer you the full protection of
your vehicle's seatbelt restraint system. WARNING:
Never use seatbelt
extensions to install child restraints. WARNING:
Do not use extensions
to change the way the seatbelt fits
across the torso, over the lap or to make
the seatbelt buckle easier to reach.
If, because of body size or driving position,
it is not possible to properly fasten the
seatbelt over your lap and shoulder, an
extension that is compatible with the
seatbelts is available free of charge from
our dealers. Only use our seatbelt
extensions made by the original equipment
seatbelt manufacturer with our seatbelts.
Ask your authorized dealer if your extension
is compatible with your vehicle restraint
system.
