Ford Escape (2022 year). Manual in english — page 3

•

When the front passenger sensing
system enables the front passenger
frontal airbag, the passenger airbag
status indicator illuminates the on
lamp.

If a person of adult size is sitting in the front
passenger seat, but the passenger airbag
status indicator off lamp is illuminated, it
is possible that the person is not sitting
properly in the seat. If this happens:

•

Switch your vehicle off and ask the
person to place the seat backrest in an
upright position.

•

Have the person sit upright in the seat,
centered on the seat cushion, with the
person's legs comfortably extended.

•

Restart your vehicle and have the
person remain in this position for about
two minutes. This allows the system
to detect that person and enable the
passenger frontal airbag.

•

If the indicator off lamp remains
illuminated even after this, advise the
person to ride in the rear seat.

After all occupants have adjusted their
seats and put on seatbelts, it is very
important that they continue to sit upright,
leaning against the seat backrest, and
centered on the seat cushion, with their
feet comfortably extended on the floor.

Sitting improperly can increase the chance
of injury in a crash event. For example, if
an occupant slouches, lies down, turns
sideways, sits forward, leans forward or
sideways, or puts one or both feet up, the
chance of injury during a crash greatly
increases.

If you think that the state of the passenger
airbag status indicator lamp is incorrect,
check for the following:

•

Objects lodged underneath the seat.

•

Objects between the seat cushion and
the center console.

•

Objects hanging off the seat backrest.

•

Objects stowed in the seat backrest
map pocket.

•

Objects placed on the occupant's lap.

•

Cargo interference with the seat

•

Other passengers pushing or pulling on
the seat.

•

Rear passenger feet and knees resting
or pushing on the seat.

The listed conditions could cause the
weight of a properly seated occupant to
be incorrectly interpreted by the front
passenger sensing system. The person in
the front passenger seat could appear
heavier or lighter due to the conditions
listed.

E67017

Make sure the front passenger
sensing system is operating
properly. See

Crash Sensors

and Airbag Indicator

(page 54).

If the airbag readiness light is on, do the
following:

•

Pull your vehicle over.

•

Switch your vehicle off.

•

Check for any objects lodged
underneath the front passenger seat
or cargo interfering with the seat.

•

Remove the obstruction if found.

•

Restart your vehicle.

•

Wait at least two minutes and verify
that the airbag readiness light in the
instrument cluster is no longer
illuminated.

•

If the airbag readiness light in the
instrument cluster remains illuminated,
there may be a problem due to the
front passenger sensing system.

Do not attempt to repair or service the
system. Take your vehicle in for service
immediately.

Airbags

If it is necessary to modify an advanced
front airbag system to accommodate a
person with disabilities, contact your
Customer Relationship Center.

FRONT PASSENGER SENSING

SYSTEM PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:

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.

WARNING:

Any alteration or

modification to the front passenger seat
may affect the performance of the front
passenger sensing system. This could
seriously increase the risk of injury or
death.

CRASH SENSORS AND

AIRBAG INDICATOR

WARNING:

Modifying or adding

equipment to the front of your vehicle
could affect the performance of the
airbag system, increasing the risk of
injury. This includes the hood, bumper
system, frame, front body structure, tow
hooks, hood pins, push bar and
snowplows.

Your vehicle has a collection of crash and
occupant sensors. These sensors provide
information to the restraints control
module which deploys (activates) the
following:

•

Seatbelt pretensioners.

•

Driver airbag.

•

Passenger airbag.

•

Knee airbag(s).

•

Seat mounted side airbags.

•

Safety Canopy.

Based on the type of crash, the restraints
control module deploys the appropriate
safety devices.

The restraints control module also
monitors the readiness of the above safety
devices plus the crash and occupant
sensors. The readiness of the safety
system is indicated by a warning indicator
light in the instrument cluster or by a
backup tone if the warning light is not
working. Routine maintenance of the
airbag is not required.

A difficulty with the system is indicated by
one or more of the following:

E67017

The readiness light will not
illuminate immediately after you
switch the ignition on.

•

The readiness light either flashes or
stays on.

•

You hear a series of five beeps. The
tone pattern repeats periodically until
the problem, the light or both are
repaired.

If any of these things happen, even
intermittently, have the supplemental
restraint system serviced at an authorized
dealer immediately. Unless serviced, the
system may not function properly in the
event of a crash.

The fact that the seatbelt pretensioners
or front airbags did not activate for both
front seat occupants in a crash does not
mean that something is wrong with the
system. Rather, it means the restraints
control module determined the accident
conditions (crash severity, seatbelt usage)
were not appropriate to activate these
safety devices.

•

The design of the front airbags is to
activate only in frontal and near-frontal
crashes (not rollovers, side impacts or
rear impacts) unless the crash causes
sufficient frontal deceleration.

•

The design of the front seatbelt
pretensioners is to activate in frontal,
near-frontal and side crashes, and in
rollovers. The design of the rear
seatbelt pretensioners is to activate in
frontal crashes and in rollovers.

•

The design of the knee airbag(s) is to
deploy based on crash severity and
occupant conditions.

Airbags

•

The design of the side airbags is to
inflate in certain side impact crashes
or rollover events. Side airbags may
activate in other types of crashes if the
vehicle experiences sufficient sideways
motion or deformation.

•

The design of the Safety Canopy is to
inflate in certain side impact crashes
or rollover events. The Safety Canopy
may activate in other types of crashes
if the vehicle experiences sufficient
sideways motion or deformation, or a
certain likelihood of rollover.

DISPOSING OF AIRBAGS

Contact your authorized dealer as soon as
possible. Airbags must be disposed of by
qualified personnel.

WHAT IS THE PEDESTRIAN

ALERT SYSTEM

Due to the quiet operation of hybrid and
electric vehicles at low speeds, the system
creates a subtle sound to alert pedestrians.

The system is on when your vehicle is
running and not in park (P). Some sound
may be audible in the passenger
compartment.

Pedestrian Alert System

(If Equipped)

WHAT IS 911 ASSIST

911 Assist is a SYNC system feature that
can call for help.

www.owner.ford.com

EMERGENCY CALL

REQUIREMENTS

WARNING:

Do not wait for 911

Assist to make an emergency call if you
can do it yourself. Dial emergency
services immediately to avoid delayed
response time which could increase the
risk of serious injury or death after a
crash. If you do not hear 911 Assist within
five seconds of the crash, the system or
phone may be damaged or
non-functional.

WARNING:

Always place your

phone in a secure location in your vehicle
so it does not become a projectile or get
damaged in a crash. Failure to do so may
cause serious injury to someone or
damage the phone which could prevent
911 Assist from working properly.

WARNING:

Unless the 911 Assist

setting is set on before a crash, the
system will not dial for help which could
delay response time, potentially
increasing the risk of serious injury or
death after a crash.

•

SYNC is powered and working properly
at the time of the incident and
throughout feature activation and use.

•

The 911 Assist feature must be set on
before the incident.

•

You must pair and connect a

enabled and compatible

cell phone to SYNC.

•

A connected

Bluetooth®

enabled

phone must have the ability to make
and maintain an outgoing call at the
time of the incident.

•

A connected

Bluetooth®

enabled

phone must have adequate network
coverage, battery power and signal
strength.

•

The vehicle must have battery power
and be located in the U.S., Canada or
in a territory in which 911 is the
emergency number.

Note:

If any user sets 911 Assist to on or off,

that setting applies for all paired phones. If
911 Assist is off and the phone connected
to SYNC, an icon displays on the status bar.

Note:

Every phone operates differently.

While SYNC 911 Assist works with most
cellular phones, some may have trouble
using this feature.
