WASHER FLUID CHECK
Note:
The front and rear washer systems
are supplied from the same reservoir. When topping up, use a mixture of washer
fluid and water to help prevent freezing in
cold weather and improve the cleaning
capability. We recommend that you use
only high quality washer fluid.
For information on fluid dilution, refer to
the product instructions.

Your engine has been designed to be used with Castrol and Ford Engine Oil, which gives
a fuel economy benefit whilst maintaining the durability of your engine.
For petrol engines only, Ford and Castrol have developed a low friction SAE-5W-20 oil
which offers further fuel economy benefits over the standard SAE-5W-30 oil. If this oil
is not available, we recommend that you service with oil to specification WSS-M2C913-C.
Topping up the oil: If you are unable to find an oil that meets the specification defined
by WSS-M2C913-C or WSS-M2C925-B (petrol engines only), you must use SAE 5W-30
that meets the specification defined by ACEA A5/B5.
Using topping up oils other than the one specified can result in longer engine cranking
periods, reduced engine performance, reduced fuel economy and increased emission
levels.
Castrol engine oil recommended.

Maintenance

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine GENERAL INFORMATION
CAUTIONS
Use only approved wheel and tyre
sizes. Using other sizes could damage
the vehicle and will make the National
Type Approval invalid. If you change the diameter of the tyres
from that fitted at the factory, the
speedometer may not display the
correct speed. Take the vehicle to your
dealer to have the engine management
system reprogrammed. If you intend to change the size of the
wheels from that fitted at the factory,
check the suitability with your dealer.
Note:
Check your tyre pressures regularly
to optimise fuel economy.
A decal with tyre pressure data is located
in the driver ’s door opening at the B-pillar.
Check and set the tyre pressure at the
ambient temperature in which you are
intending to drive the vehicle and when the
tyres are cold.
CHANGING A ROAD WHEEL
Locking wheel nuts
You can obtain a replacement locking
wheel nut key and replacement locking
wheel nuts from your dealer using the
reference number certificate.
Vehicles with a spare wheel
If the spare wheel is exactly the same type
and size as the other fitted road wheels,
you can replace the existing road wheel
with the spare wheel and continue to drive
in the normal manner.
If the spare wheel is different to the other
road wheels, it will carry a yellow label with
the appropriate speed limit. Refer to the following information before
changing the road wheel. WARNINGS
Drive the shortest possible distances.
Do not fit more than one spare wheel
on your vehicle at any one time.
Do not carry out any tyre repairs on
a spare wheel.
Do not drive through an automatic
car wash.
If you are unsure what type of spare
wheel you have do not exceed 80
km/h (50 mph).
Only fit snow chains to specified
tyres. See Technical
Specifications (page 209).
CAUTION
The ground clearance of your vehicle
may be reduced. Take care when
parking next to a kerb.
Note:
Your vehicle may exhibit some
unusual driving characteristics.
Vehicle jack WARNINGS
The vehicle jack supplied with your
vehicle should only be used when
changing a wheel in emergency
situations. Before using the vehicle jack, check
that it is not damaged or deformed
and that the thread is lubricated and
free from foreign matter. Never place anything between the
jack and the ground, or the jack and
the vehicle.

3.
Jack up the vehicle until the tyre is clear
of the ground.
4. Remove the wheel nuts and the wheel.
Installing a road wheel WARNINGS
Use only approved wheel and tyre
sizes. Using other sizes could
damage the vehicle and will make
the National Type Approval invalid. See
Technical Specifications (page 209). Do not fit run flat tyres on vehicles
that were not originally fitted with
them. Please contact your dealer for
more details regarding compatibility. CAUTION
Do not install alloy wheels using
wheel nuts designed for use with steel
wheels.
Note:
The wheel nuts of alloy wheels and
spoked steel wheels can also be used for
the steel spare wheel for a short time
(maximum two weeks).
Note: Make sure the wheel and hub contact
surfaces are free from foreign matter.
Note: Make sure that the cones on the
wheel nuts are against the wheel.
1. Install the wheel.
2. Install the wheel nuts finger tight.
3. Install the locking wheel nut key. 4. Partially tighten the wheel nuts in the
sequence shown.
5. Lower the vehicle and remove the jack.

If the pressure of the sealant-filled tyre
is 1.3 bar (19 psi) or more, adjust it to
the specified pressure. See Technical
Specifications (page 209).
4. Follow the inflation procedure once again to top up the tyre.
5. Check the tyre pressure again from the
pressure gauge F. If the tyre pressure
is too high, deflate the tyre to the
specified pressure using the pressure
relief valve B.
6. Once you have inflated the tyre to its correct tyre pressure, move the
compressor switch H to position 0,
remove the power plug G from the
socket, unscrew the hose C, fasten the
valve cap and replace the protective
cap A.
7. Leave the sealant bottle K in the bottle
holder E and store the kit away safely
in its original location.
8. Drive to the nearest tyre specialist to get the damaged tyre replaced. Before
the tyre is removed from the rim, inform
your tyre dealer that the tyre contains
sealant. Renew the kit as soon as
possible after it has been used once.
Note: Remember that emergency roadside
tyre repair kits only provide temporary
mobility. Regulations concerning tyre repair
after usage of tyre repair kit may differ from
country to country. You should consult a
tyre specialist for advice. WARNING
Before driving, make sure the tyre is
adjusted to the recommended
inflation pressure. See Technical
Specifications (page 209). Monitor the
tyre pressure until the sealed tyre is
replaced. Empty sealant bottles can be disposed of
together with normal household waste.
Return remains of sealant to your dealer
or dispose of it in compliance with local
waste disposal regulations.
TYRE CARE
To make sure the front and rear tyres of
your vehicle wear evenly and last longer,
we recommend that you swap the tyres
from front to rear and vice versa at regular
intervals of between 5000 and 10000
kilometres (3000 and 6000 miles).
CAUTION
Do not scrub the sidewalls of the tyres
when you are parking.
If you have to mount a kerb, do so slowly
and approach it with the wheels at
right-angles to the kerb.
Examine the tyres regularly for cuts, foreign
objects and uneven wear of the tread.
Uneven wear could mean that the wheel
alignment is outside specification.
Check the tyre pressures (including the
spare) when cold, every two weeks.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine USING WINTER TYRES
CAUTION
Make sure that you use the correct
wheel nuts for the type of wheel the
winter tyres are fitted to.
If winter tyres are used, make sure that the
tyre pressures are correct. See Technical
Specifications (page 209).
USING SNOW CHAINS
WARNINGS
Do not exceed 50 km/h (30 mph).
Do not use snow chains on snow-free
roads.
Only fit snow chains to specified
tyres. See Technical
Specifications (page 209).
CAUTION
If your vehicle is fitted with wheel
trims, remove them before fitting
snow chains.
Note:
The ABS will continue to operate
normally.
Only use snow chains of 10 millimetre or
smaller.
Only use snow chains on the front wheels.
Vehicles with stability control
(ESP)
Vehicles with stability control (ESP) may
exhibit some unusual driving
characteristics which can be reduced by
switching traction control off. See Using
Stability Control (page 145). TYRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM WARNINGS
The system does not relieve you of
your responsibility to regularly check
the tyre pressures.
The system will only provide a low
tyre pressure warning. It will not
inflate the tyres.
Do not drive on significantly
under-inflated tyres. This may cause
the tyres to overheat and fail.
Under-inflation reduces fuel efficiency, tyre
tread life and may also affect your ability
to drive the vehicle safely. CAUTIONS
Do not bend or damage the valves
when you are inflating the tyres.
Have tyres installed by properly
trained technicians.
The Deflation Detection System will alert
you if there is a change of air pressure in
any tyre. It does this by using the ABS
sensors to detect the rolling circumference
of the wheels. When the circumference
changes, this indicates low pressure in a
tyre, a warning message is displayed in the
information display and the message
indicator will illuminate. See Information
Messages (page 90).
If a low pressure warning message is
displayed in the information display, check
the tyre pressures as soon as possible and
inflate them to the recommended
pressure. See Technical Specifications
(page 209).
If this happens frequently, have the cause
determined and rectified as soon as
possible.

• When using a trailer or travelling up and
down an incline.
• Using snow chains.
• Driving on soft surfaces such as snow
or mud.
Note: The system will still function
correctly, but there may be an increased
detection time. System reset
Note:
Do not reset the system when the
vehicle is moving.
