Seating and safety restraints Do not place objects or mount equipment on or near the air bag cover on the steering wheel or in front seat areas that may come into contact with a deploying air bag. Failure to follow this instruction may increase the risk of personal injury in the event of a collision. Do not attempt to service, repair, or modify the air bag SRS or its fuses. See your Ford or Lincoln-Mercury dealer. AIR BAG SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The air bags and their corresponding warning and information labels are found in the following locations: The air bag system activates in collisions more severe than hitting a parked vehicle (of similar size and weight) head-on at approximately 20 km/h (13 mph). This activation speed may vary if your vehicle is involved in a collision with something that will move or deform and according to the angle of impact. The air bag is not designed to inflate in rollovers, side impacts, or rear impacts. Air bags and air bag equipped vehicles should be disposed of only by qualified service personnel using Ford approved procedures. The system consists of two parts: 50 E FUEL FILL 60 70 100 120 12 / 40 F 80 140 3 80 C H 30 40 60 90 100 1 10 2 1 RPM x 1000 0 0 0 0 0 0 160 20 20 0 0 0 0 180 200 MIST OFF INT 1 OFF ON MIRROR RSM L R OFF CST SET ACC AM FM SEEK TUNE TUNE DISCS VOL- PUSH ON BAL 1 SIDE 1-2 2 3 4 5 COMP 1 SIDE 1-2 FADE SCAN BASS EJ REW FF - + TREB TAPE CD LO OFF HI *A/C *MAX A/C 63
