Ford GT (2018 year). Manual — part 21

SITTING IN THE CORRECT
POSITION

WARNINGS

Sitting improperly, out of position or
with the seatback reclined too far
can take weight off the seat cushion

and affect the decision of the passenger
sensing system, resulting in serious injury
or death in the event of a crash. Always sit
upright against your seat back, with your
feet on the floor.

Do not place any objects on a folded
seat. Hard objects may become
projectiles in a crash or sudden stop,

which may increase the risk of serious
personal injury.

E68595

When you use them properly, the seat,
head restraint, seatbelt and airbags will
provide optimum protection in a crash.

We recommend that you follow these
guidelines:
•

Sit in an upright position with the base
of your spine as far back as possible.

•

Keep sufficient distance between
yourself and the steering wheel. We
recommend a minimum of 10 in
(25 cm) between your breastbone and
the airbag cover.

•

Hold the steering wheel with your arms
slightly bent.

•

Bend your legs slightly so that you can
press the pedals fully.

•

Position the shoulder strap of the
seatbelt over the center of your
shoulder and position the lap strap
tightly across your hips.

Make sure that your driving position is
comfortable and that you can maintain full
control of your vehicle.

12 Volt DC Power Point

WARNING

Incorrect use of the power points can
cause damage not covered by the
vehicle warranty, and can result in

fire or serious injury.

Note: When you switch the ignition on, you
can use the socket to power 12 volt
appliances with a maximum current rating
of 12.5 amps.

Note: You can only use the power supply
with the ignition on.

Note: Do not hang any accessory from the
accessory plug.

Note: Do not use the power point over the
vehicle capacity of 12 volt DC 180 watts or
a fuse may blow.

Note: Always keep the power point cap
closed when not in use.

Do not insert objects other than an
accessory plug into the power point. This
damages the power point and may blow
the fuse.

Run the vehicle for full capacity use of the
power point.

To prevent the battery from running out of
charge:
•

Do not use the power point longer than
necessary when the vehicle is not
running.

Location

The power point is on the right side of the
center floor console.
