Child safety
WARNINGS
Do not install a booster seat or a booster cushion with only the
lap strap of the seat belt.
Do not install a booster seat or a booster cushion with a seat
belt that is slack or twisted.
Do not put the seat belt under your child’s arm or behind its
back.
Do not use pillows, books or towels to boost your child’s
height.
Make sure that your children sit in an upright position.
Secure children that weigh more than 15 kilogrammes but are
less than 150 centimetres tall in a booster seat or a booster cushion.
Booster seat
E70710
We recommend that you use a booster seat that combines a cushion with a backrest instead of a booster cushion only. The raised seating position will allow you to position the shoulder strap of the adult seat belt over the centre of your child’s shoulder and the lap strap tightly across its hips.
Booster cushion

Child safety
E75531
Your vehicle has been equipped with ISOFIX attachments. Your Ford Dealer will be pleased to make them accessible.
The ISOFIX system consists of two rigid latching arms on the child seat, which attach to anchor points at the base of the vehicle seat back. When made available by your Ford Dealer, the two lower anchor points may be found in the rear seating rows and are labelled with a circular pictogram and the word ISOFIX.
The funnel guides enable the latching arms of an ISOFIX child seat to be easily and securely attached.
ISOFIX child seats not approved by Ford have not been validated by Ford, and neither the safety nor the suitability of such seats can be certified, whether installed using the ISOFIX system or the normal seat belts.
E78299
WARNINGS
Attach the tether strap only to the appropriate tether anchor as shown. The tether strap may not
work properly if attached somewhere other than the correct tether anchor.
Ford does not recommend the use of an ISOFIX system without
the use of an anti-rotation device, such as a top tether anchor or support leg, correctly installed.
There is a risk of death or serious injury when the manufacturers instructions are not followed properly or when the child
restraint is modified in any way.
24
Child safety
A third anchor point has been provided for child seats that are equipped with a top tether, available for use in the forward facing configuration.
The top tether anchors in your vehicle are located on the floor of the luggage compartment.
The tether strap should be routed beneath the raised rear head restraint, to the anchor point on the floor of the luggage compartment. The anchor point is identified by a pictogram.
After installing the child safety seat, tighten the tether strap according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
25
Child safety
E78298
WARNING
When the child safety lock is activated, the door can only be
opened from outside.
Turn the key in the rear door in the direction of the arrow to activate the lock. To deactivate the lock turn the key in opposite direction to the arrow.
26
Airbags
E78293
WARNING
Do not modify the front of the vehicle in any way as this can
adversely affect airbag deployment.
Note: A loud bang will be heard when an airbag deploys and it is normal to see a cloud of harmless powdery residue.
The airbag system comprises the following:
•single-stage inflatable nylon bags (airbags) with gas generators
•side airbags
•curtain airbags
•seat belt pretensioners
•a seat belt reminder
•crash sensors.
•a warning lamp in the instrument panel.
•an airbag deactivation switch

WARNINGS
Repairs to either of the front seat covers, the sensors
attached to the seats as well as to the roof lining should only be carried out by properly trained technicians. Injuries may result if the side airbags are triggered inadvertently.
Do not block, obstruct or cover the airbag because it may
prevent proper deployment. Do not poke any sharp objects into the areas where airbags are fitted. This could damage the airbags.
Do not use any accessory seat covers that are not specifically designed for seats with side airbags. These seat covers must be fitted by
properly trained technicians.

WARNING
Always wear the seat belt and keep sufficient distance
between the driver and the steering wheel. Only when the seat belt is used properly, can it hold the body in a position which allows the airbag to achieve its optimum effect. There is a risk of injury when the airbag deploys.
The seat and back must be set correctly for the airbags to be optimally effective. See Sitting in the correct position (page 120).
This is the ideal seating position for the driver and front passenger and helps reduce the risk of injury from sitting too close to an inflating airbag.
