tow FORD E SERIES 2006 4.G Quick Reference Safety Guide

Vans and wagons should be operated at a safe speed, which in some conditions may be less than the
posted speed limit.
Safety belts must be used by all occupants.
DRIVING
This van or wagon, like any vehicle designed to carry very heavy loads, must be driven differently from a passen
ger car. The extra weight can affect stopping distance and maneuverability. The higher center of gravity and other
features may reduce the ability to make abrupt maneuvers and may increase the risk
of rollover compared to a passenger car.
Do not place any loads on the roof of passenger wagons. This raises the center of gravity, which increases the risk
of rollover.
When loading your wagon, passengers should fill the front rows of seats first.
The number of occupants in the vehicle should not exceed the number of available safety belt
restraint systems.
Do not exceed the weight limits specified on the certification label. Exceeding any vehicle weight rating limitation
could result in serious damage to the vehicle, loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover and/or personal injury. Please
refer to your Owner’s Guide for additional important information on vehicle weight limits.
Towing trailers beyond the maximum recommended gross trailer weight could result in a loss of vehicle control, vehi
cle rollover and personal injury.Please refer to your Owner’s Guide for more information on towing.
