child lock FORD EDGE 2021 User Guide

Using a Sliding Clip (If Equipped)
Slide the clip away from the tongue so
there is no loose webbing when an
occupant or child seat is buckled up. You
can also use the sliding clip to raise the
tongue and prevent it from rattling or to
ease access to the tongue.
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 is a safety feature built into the
seatbelt retractors that keeps the
seatbelts pre-locked.
Engaging Automatic Locking Mode
1. Fasten the combination lap and
shoulder belt.
2. Grasp the shoulder portion and pull downward until you pull the entire belt
out.
3. Allow the belt to retract. As the belt retracts, you will hear a clicking sound.
This indicates the seatbelt is now in the
automatic locking mode.

LIFTGATE PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: It is extremely
dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside

seatbelts. Make sure everyone in your
vehicle is in a seat and properly using a
seatbelt. Failure to follow this warning
