Note:

When you are purchasing an ISOFIX restraint, make sure that you know the correct mass group and ISOFIX size class for the intended seating locations. See Child seat positioning (page 21).

Your vehicle is fitted with ISOFIX anchor points that accommodate universally approved ISOFIX child restraints.

The ISOFIX system comprises two rigid attachment arms on the child restraint that attach to anchor points on the outboard rear seats, where the cushion and backrest meet. Tether anchor points are fitted behind the outboard rear seats for child restraints with a top tether.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

Airbags

WARNINGS

Do not modify the front of your

vehicle in any way. This could adversely affect deployment of the airbags.

Original text according to ECE

R94.01: Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in front of it!

Wear a seat belt and keep

sufficient distance between yourself and the steering wheel. Only when you use the seat belt properly, can it hold you in a position that allows the airbag to achieve its optimum effect. See Sitting in the correct position (page 126).

Have repairs to the steering

wheel, steering column, seats, airbags and seat belts carried out by a properly trained technician.

Keep the areas in front of the

airbags free from obstruction. Do not affix anything to or over the airbag covers.

Do not poke sharp objects into

areas where airbags are fitted. This could damage and adversely affect deployment of the airbags.

Use seat covers designed for

seats with side airbags. Have these fitted by a properly trained technician.

Note:

You will hear a loud bang and see a cloud of harmless powdery residue if an airbag deploys. This is normal.

Note:

Only wipe airbag covers with a damp cloth.

Driver and front passenger airbags

E74302

The driver and front passenger airbags will deploy during significant frontal collisions or collisions that are up to 30 degrees from the left or the right. The airbags will inflate within a few thousandths of a second and deflate on contact with the occupants, thus cushioning forward body movement. During minor frontal collisions, overturns, rear collisions and side collisions, the driver and front passenger airbags will not deploy.

Occupant protection

Driver knee airbag

CAUTION

Do not attempt to open the driver knee airbag cover.

E86311

The driver knee airbag will deploy during frontal collisions or collisions that are up to 30 degrees from the left or the right. The airbag will inflate within a few thousandths of a second and deflate on contact with the occupants, thus providing a cushion between the driver’s knees and the steering column. During overturns, rear collisions and side collisions, the knee airbag will not deploy.

Note:

The knee airbag has a lower deployment threshold than the front airbags. During a minor collision, it is possible that only the knee airbag deploys.

Side airbags

E72658

Side airbags are fitted inside the seatback of the front seats. A label indicates that side airbags are fitted to your vehicle.

The side airbags will deploy during significant lateral collisions. Only the airbag on the side affected by the collision will deploy. The airbags will inflate within a few thousandths of a second and deflate on contact with the occupants, thus providing protection for the chest and shoulder areas. During minor lateral collisions, overturns, front collisions and rear collisions, the side airbags will not deploy.

Occupant protection

Curtain airbags

E75004

Curtain airbags are fitted inside the trim panels over the front and rear side windows. Moulded badges in the B-pillar trim panels indicate that curtain airbags are fitted to your vehicle.

The curtain airbags will deploy during significant lateral collisions. Only the airbag on the side affected by the collision will deploy. The airbag will inflate within a few thousandths of a second and deflate on contact with the occupants, thus providing protection for the head. During minor lateral collisions, front collisions, rear collisions, or overturns the curtain airbags will not deploy.

Seat belts

WARNINGS

Wear a seat belt and keep

sufficient distance between yourself and the steering wheel. Only when you use the seat belt properly, can it hold you in a position to achieve its optimum effect. See

Sitting in the correct position

(page 126).

Never use a seat belt for more

than one person.

Use the correct buckle for each

seat belt.

Do not use a seat belt that is

slack or twisted.

Do not wear thick clothing. The

seat belt must fit tightly around your body to achieve its optimum effect.

Position the shoulder strap of

the seat belt over the centre of your shoulder and position the lap strap tightly across your hips.

The driver and front passenger seat belt retractors are fitted with a seat belt pretensioner. Seat belt pretensioners have a lower deployment threshold than the airbags. During minor collisions, it is possible that only the seat belt pretensioners will deploy.

Occupant protection

FASTENING THE SEAT BELTS

WARNING

Insert the tongue into the buckle

until you hear a distinct click. You have not fastened the seat belt properly if you do not hear a click.

Note:

The seat belt tongues are designed so that you can only insert them into the correct buckle.

E74124

E74127

Pull the belt out steadily. It may lock if you pull it sharply or if the vehicle is on a slope.

Press the red button on the buckle to release the belt. Let it retract completely and smoothly.

SEAT BELT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

E73135

To raise the height, grasp the D-ring and move the pivot up.

To lower the height, grasp the D-ring, hold the locking button on the height adjuster pressed and move the pivot down.

Note:

Lifting the slider slightly while pressing the locking button makes it easier to release the locking mechanism.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

The engine immobiliser is a theft protection system that prevents someone from starting the engine with an incorrectly coded key.

CODED KEYS

Note:

Do not shield your keys with metal objects. This may prevent the receiver from recognising your key as a valid one.

Note:

Have all of your remaining keys erased and recoded if you lose a key. Ask your dealer for further information. Have replacement keys recoded together with your existing keys.

If you lose a key, you can obtain a replacement from your Ford Dealer. If possible, provide them with the key number from the tag provided with the original keys. You can also obtain additional keys from your Ford Dealer.

ARMING THE ENGINE IMMOBILISER

The engine immobiliser is armed automatically a short time after you have switched the ignition off.

DISARMING THE ENGINE IMMOBILISER

The engine immobiliser is disarmed automatically when you switch the ignition on with a correctly coded key.

If the message Immobiliser active appears in the information display, your key has not been recognised. Remove the key and try again.

If you are unable to start the engine with a correctly coded key, this indicates a malfunction. The message Immobiliser active will appear in the information display when you switch on the ignition. Have the immobiliser checked immediately.

Engine immobiliser

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

Alarm system

Your vehicle may be equipped with one of the following alarm systems:

•

Perimeter alarm.

•

Perimeter alarm with interior sensors.

•

Category one alarm with interior sensors and battery back-up sounder.

•

Category one alarm with interior sensors, battery back-up sounder and tilt sensors.

Perimeter alarm

The perimeter alarm is a deterrent against unauthorised access to your vehicle through the doors and the bonnet. It also protects the audio unit.

Interior sensors

E71401

WARNING

The sensors in the interior lamp

unit must not be covered up. Do not activate the alarm with full guard if any persons, animals or other moving objects are inside the vehicle.

The sensors act as a deterrent against unauthorised intrusion by sensing any movement within the vehicle.

Battery back-up sounder

The battery back-up sounder is an extra alarm system which will sound a siren when the alarm is triggered. It is armed directly when you lock the vehicle. The sounder has its own battery and will sound an alarm siren even if someone disconnects the vehicle battery or the battery back-up sounder itself.

Tilt sensors

The tilt sensors detect if someone attempts to steal a wheel or tow the vehicle away by sensing changes in the inclination of the vehicle.

Note:

When travelling on a ferry with the alarm armed, deactivate the tilt sensors by selecting reduced guard. This will prevent the alarm from being triggered by the movement.

Triggering the alarm

Once armed, the alarm is triggered in any of the following ways:

•

If someone opens a door, the tailgate or the bonnet without a valid key or remote control.

•

If someone removes the audio or navigation system.

•

If the ignition is turned to position I, II or III without a valid key.

•

If the interior sensors detect movement within the vehicle.

Alarm

•

On vehicles with a battery back-up sounder, if someone disconnects the vehicle battery or the battery back-up sounder itself.

•

If the tilt sensors detect a change in the inclination of the vehicle.

If the alarm is triggered, the alarm horn will sound for 30 seconds and the hazard warning flasher will flash for five minutes.

Any further attempts to perform one of the above will trigger the alarm again.

Full and reduced guard

Full guard

Full guard is the standard setting.

In full guard, the interior and tilt sensors are activated when you arm the alarm.

Note:

This may result in false alarms if animals or moving objects are inside the vehicle or, on vehicles with tilt sensors, when travelling on a ferry.

Reduced guard

In reduced guard, the interior and tilt sensors are deactivated when you arm the alarm.

Note:

You can set the alarm to reduced guard for the current ignition cycle only. The next time you switch on the ignition, the alarm will be reset to full guard.

Ask on Exit

You can set the information display to ask you each time which level of guard you wish to set.

If you select Ask on Exit, the message Reduced guard? appears in the instrument cluster display each time you switch the ignition off.

If you wish to arm the alarm with reduced guard, press the OK button when this message appears.

If you wish to arm the alarm with full guard, leave the vehicle without pressing the OK button.

Selecting full or reduced guard

Note:

Selecting Reduced does not

set the alarm permanently to reduced guard. It sets it to reduced guard only for the current ignition cycle. If you regularly set the alarm to reduced guard, select Ask on Exit.

ELECTRIC WINDOWS

WARNING

Do not operate the electric windows unless they are free

from obstruction.

Note:

If you operate the switches often during a short period of time, the system might become inoperable for a certain time to prevent damage due to overheating.

Note:

You can operate the windows for several minutes after you switch off the ignition. They will be deactivated as soon as a door is opened.

Note:

If you operate both the switch on the relevant door and the switch for that window on the driver’s door at the same time, the window will stop moving.

Switch on the ignition to operate the electric windows.

Global opening and global closing

You can also operate the electric windows with the ignition off via the global opening and global closing function. See Global opening and

closing (page 41).

Note:

Global opening and global closing will open or close the windows automatically only on vehicles equipped with four electric windows.

Note:

Global closing will only operate if you have set the memory correctly for each window.

Driver’s door switches

E70850

A switch in the driver’s door disables the rear electric window switches.

The light in the switch illuminates and the lights in the rear window switches go off when the rear windows are disabled.

Anti-trap function

WARNING

Careless closing of the windows can override the protection

function and cause injuries.

The electric windows will stop automatically while closing and reverse some distance if there is an obstacle in the way.

Overriding the anti-trap function

CAUTION

While you close the window for

the third time, the anti-trap function is disabled. Make sure there are no obstacles in the way of the closing window.

To override this protection function when there is a resistance, for example, in the winter, proceed as follows:

1. Close the window twice until it

reaches the resistance and let it reverse.

2. Close the window a third time to

the resistance. The anti-trap function is disabled and you cannot close the window automatically. The window will override the resistance and you can close it fully.

3. If the window does not close after

the third attempt, have it checked by a properly trained technician.

Windows and mirrors

Resetting the memory of the electric windows

WARNING

The anti-trap function is deactivated until you have reset

the memory.

After the battery has been disconnected from the vehicle you must reset the memory separately for each window:

1. Lift the switch until the window is fully closed. Hold the switch lifted for one more second.

2. Release the switch and lift it again, two or three times, for one more second.

3. Open the window and try to close it automatically.

4. Reset and repeat procedure if the window does not close automatically.

Safety mode

WARNING

The anti-trap function is not active during this procedure.

If the system detects a malfunction, it enters a safety mode. The windows will move for only about 0.5 seconds at a time and then stop again. Close the windows by pressing the switch again when the windows stop moving. Have this checked immediately.
