Air bag supplement restraint system (SRS) do’s and don’ts
There are four very important reasons to always use safety belts with the
air bag SRS.
1. Help restrain the occupants to increase the effectiveness of the air bag
SRS when it inflates.
2. Reduce the risk of injury in rollover, side or rear impact accidents.
The air bag SRS is not designed to inflate in these types of accidents.
3. Reduce the risk of injury in frontal collisions that are not severe
enough to activate the dual air bag SRS.
4. Reduce the risk of being thrown from the vehicle.
•Always use safety belts with the air bag supplemental restraint
system.
All occupants of the vehicle, including the driver, should always
properly wear their safety belts, even when an air bag
supplemental restraint system (SRS) is provided.
•DO NOT mount or place any objects in the deployment path of
an air bag.
Do not place objects or mount equipment on or near the air bag
cover on the side of the seatbacks of the front seats or in front
seat areas that may come into contact with a deploying air bag. Failure
to follow these instructions may increase the risk of personal injury in
the event of a collision.

•DO NOT attempt to tamper with, disconnect or deactivate the
dual air bag SRS.
Do not attempt to service, repair, or modify the air bag
supplemental restraint system (SRS) or its fuses. See your Ford
or Lincoln Mercury dealer.
Tampering with the dual air bag SRS could cause the air bags to
inflate or become inoperative which may result in possible
personal injury.
Disconnecting or deactivating the air bag SRS could result in
liability exposure to the owner of the vehicle.
Special air bag supplement restraint system (SRS) concerns
•This vehicle cannot be special ordered without the dual air bag
supplement restraint system (SRS).
•The installation of some types of push bumpers could affect the timing
of air bag deployment.
•When transporting a passenger whose hands are restrained, it is
recommended that the passenger is seated in the rear of the vehicle,
upright as possible and properly restrained with the safety belt. If it is
necessary to transport an individual in the front seat, the passenger’s
seat should be adjusted as far rearward as possible and the individual
properly restrained with the safety belt.
•This vehicle is not designed nor intended for use as an ambulance or
pursuit vehicle. However, high speed braking or uneven road surfaces
will not cause inadvertent air bag inflation.
