FORD FOCUS 2014 3.G ST Supplement Manual

OCTANE RECOMMENDATIONS
Regular unleaded gasoline with a
pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87 is
recommended. Some stations offer
fuels posted as Regular with an
octane rating below 87, particularly
in high altitude areas. Fuels with octane levels below 87 are not
recommended. Premium fuel will provide improved performance and is
recommended for severe duty usage such as trailer tow.
Towing a Trailer
Note:The Focus ST was not designed for towing a trailer. It is not
recommended that a trailer of any size or weight be towed.

CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL
See thescheduled maintenance informationfor the appropriate
intervals for checking the engine oil.
1. Make sure the vehicle is on level ground.
2. Turn the engine off and wait 15 minutes for the oil to drain into the
oil pan.
Note:The oil dipstick on the Focus ST is integrated into the oil drain
back system. The oil reading on the dipstick will be influenced by oil
draining back into the sump from the cylinder head if the oil level is
checked without waiting 15 minutes after shutdown.

3. Set the parking brake and make sure the transmission selector lever is
securely latched in first gear.
4. Open the hood. Protect yourself from engine heat.
5. Locate and carefully remove the engine oil level dipstick.
6. Wipe the dipstick clean. Insert the dipstick fully, then remove it again.
A. MIN
B. MAX
•If the oil level is between the MIN and MAX marks, the oil level is
acceptable. DO NOT ADD OIL.
•If the oil level is below the MIN mark, add enough oil to raise the level
within the MIN and MAX marks
•The maximum oil level is between the upper hash mark and the MAX
mark. Oil levels above this range may cause engine damage. Some oil
must be removed from the engine by an authorized dealer.
7. Put the dipstick back in and make sure it is fully seated.
ENGINE COOLANT
The concentration and level of engine coolant should be checked at the
mileage intervals listed in thescheduled maintenance information.
Note:Make sure that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks on
the engine coolant reservoirs.
Note:For best results, coolant concentration should be tested with a
refractometer such as Rotunda tool 300-ROB75240E available from your
dealer. Ford does not recommend the use of hydrometers or coolant test
strips for measuring coolant concentrations.
Note:Coolant expands when it is hot. The level may extend beyond the
MAX mark. If the level is at the MIN mark, add coolant immediately.

Be sure to read and understandPrecautionsin yourOwner’s Manual.
If the coolant has not been checked at the recommended interval, the
engine or intercooler coolant reservoir may become low or empty. If the
reservoir is low or empty, add coolant to the reservoir. SeeAdding
coolantin this chapter.
Note:Automotive fluids are not interchangeable. Do not use engine
coolant, antifreeze or windshield washer fluid outside of its specified
function and vehicle location. For more information about engine coolant,
see theMaintenancechapter of theOwner’s Manual.
Adding Engine Coolant
WARNING:Do not add coolant when the engine is hot. Steam and
scalding liquids released from a hot cooling system can burn you
badly. Also, you can be burned if you spill coolant on hot engine parts.
WARNING:Do not put coolant in the windshield washer fluid
container. If sprayed on the windshield, coolant could make it
difficult to see through the windshield.
WARNING:To reduce the risk of personal injury, make sure the
engine is cool before unscrewing the coolant pressure relief cap.
The cooling system is under pressure; steam and hot liquid can come
out forcefully when the cap is loosened slightly.
WARNING:Do not add coolant further than the MAX mark.
Note:Do not use stop leak pellets, cooling system sealants, or additives
as they can cause damage to the engine cooling or heating systems. This
damage would not be covered under your vehicle’s warranty.
Note:During normal vehicle operation, the engine coolant may change
color from orange to pink or light red. As long as the engine coolant is
clear and uncontaminated, this color change does not indicate the engine
coolant has degraded nor does it require the engine coolant to be
drained, the system to be flushed, or the engine coolant to be replaced.
•
Do not mix different colors or types of coolant in your vehicle. Make
sure the correct coolant is used. Mixing of engine coolants may harm
your engine’s cooling system. The use of an improper coolant may harm
engine and cooling system components and may void the warranty.

A large amount of water without engine coolant may be added, in case of
emergency, to reach a vehicle service location. In this instance, the
cooling system must be drained, chemically cleaned with Motorcraft®
Premium Cooling System Flush, and refilled with prediluted coolant as
soon as possible. Water alone (without engine coolant) can cause engine
damage from corrosion, overheating or freezing.
•Note:Do not use alcohol, methanol or brine or any engine coolants
mixed with alcohol or methanol antifreeze (coolant). Alcohol and
other liquids can cause engine damage from overheating or freezing.
•Note:Do not add extra inhibitors or additives to the coolant. These
can be harmful and compromise the corrosion protection of the engine
coolant.
Unscrew the cap slowly. Any pressure will escape as you unscrew the
cap.
Add prediluted engine coolant meeting the Ford specification. See
Capacities and Specificationsfor more information. Whenever coolant
has been added, the coolant level in the coolant reservoir should be
checked the next few times you drive the vehicle. If necessary, add
enough prediluted coolant to bring the coolant level to the proper level
and concentration.
Coolant Refill Procedure
The following procedure should be used when refilling the cooling
system after it has been drained or become extremely low.
1. Remove the pressure relief cap from the coolant reservoir as
previously outlined.
2. Slowly add prediluted coolant to the coolant reservoir until the coolant
level is between the MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir.
3. Reinstall the pressure relief cap.
4. Start and idle the engine until the upper radiator hose is warm (this
indicates that the thermostat is open and coolant is flowing through the
entire system).
5. Shut the engine off and let it cool.
6. Remove the pressure relief cap from the coolant reservoir as
previously outlined.

7. Add prediluted coolant to the coolant reservoir until the coolant level
is between the MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir.
8. Reinstall the pressure relief cap.
9. Check the coolant level in the reservoir before you drive your vehicle
the next few times (with the engine cool).
10. If necessary, add prediluted coolant to the coolant reservoir until the
coolant level is between the MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir.
Whenever coolant has been added, the coolant level in the coolant
reservoir should be checked the next few times you drive the vehicle. If
necessary, add prediluted coolant to bring the coolant to the proper
level.
If you have to add more than 1.0 quart (1.0 liter) of coolant per month,
have your dealer check the cooling system. Your cooling system may
have a leak. Operating an engine with a low level of coolant can result in
engine overheating and possible engine damage.

WARRANTY COVERAGE
The Focus ST carries the same warranty as other Ford Focus models.
This information is covered in its entirety in the warranty information.
Warranty service for the Focus ST or any ST vehicle can be obtained at
any Ford dealer nationwide.
Ford Global Performance does not recommend modifying or racing ST,
SVT or RS vehicles, as they are designed and built to be driven as
delivered from the factory. The warranty information discusses vehicle
usage and the installation of aftermarket parts and their effect on
warranty coverage.
In the event the vehicle is intended for track use, and the loss of
warranty coverage is not of concern, the following vehicle durability
actions are required:
•Perform multi-point inspection and the maintenance outlined in the
150000 mile (240000 kilometer) normal maintenance schedule of the
scheduled maintenance before and after track use. See the vehicle
service manual for removal and installation procedures.
•Replace with Genuine Ford and Motorcraft® service parts as needed.
These actions may not necessarily protect your vehicle from damage in
competition conditions. Subjecting your vehicle to competition conditions
even with this recommended action may render repairs non-reimbursable
under the warranty.
