FORD 2004 Ranger v.3 - Manual (Page 76)

Never place a rearward facing child safety restraint in front of an
activated airbag. Airbags have been known to kill or injure
children in front facing child safety restraints. Whenever placing a child
safety seat in a front seating position (including center if equipped),
turn off the passenger side air bag switch after being certain the child
is properly restrained. If using a forward facing child safety restraint in
the front outboard seat, slide the seat all the way back, and turn off
the passenger air bag. If using a rear facing child safety seat in the
front outboard seating position, make sure the passenger airbag is
turned off and slide the passenger seat all the way forward until the
safety seat rests on the dashboard. See Passenger air bag on/off
switch in this chapter.
Do not install a child seat in
a center facing jump seat.
An air bag can kill or injure
a child in a child seat. Child
seats should never be placed in
the front seats, unless passenger
air bag switch is turned off. See
Passenger air bag on/off switch
in this chapter.
Rear facing child seats should NEVER be placed in the front
seats unless the passenger airbag switch is turned off.
Booster seats must be installed only in seating positions
equipped with a combination lap/shoulder belt.
To reduce the risk of injury, make sure children sit where they
can be properly restrained.
