Ford Explorer: Driver and Passenger Airbags / Children and Airbags

Ford Explorer 2020-2025 Owners Manual / Supplementary Restraints System / Driver and Passenger Airbags / Children and Airbags

WARNING: Airbags can kill or injure a child in a child restraint. Never place a rear-facing child restraint in front of an active airbag. If you must use a forward-facing child restraint in the front seat, move the seat upon which the child restraint is installed all the way back.
