Note: EDR data is recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial
crash situation occurs; no data is recorded by the EDR under
normal driving conditions and no personal data or information
(e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) is recorded (see
limitations regarding 911 Assist and Traffic, Directions and
Information privacy below). However, parties, such as law
enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of
personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash
investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required,
and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the
vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement,
that have such special equipment, can read the information
if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR. Ford Motor
Company and Ford of Canada do not access event data recorder
information without obtaining consent, unless pursuant to court
order or where required by law enforcement, other government
authorities or other third parties acting with lawful authority.
Other parties may seek to access the information independently
of Ford Motor Company and Ford of Canada.
Note: Including to the extent that any law pertaining to Event
Data Recorders applies to SYNC® or its features, please note the
following: Once 911 Assist (if equipped) is enabled (set ON),
911 Assist may, through any paired and connected cell phone,
disclose to emergency services that the vehicle has been in a
crash involving the deployment of an airbag or, in certain
vehicles, the activation of the fuel pump shut-off. Certain
versions or updates to 911 Assist may also be capable of being
used to electronically or verbally provide to 911 operators the
vehicle location (such as latitude and longitude), and/or other
details about the vehicle or crash or personal information about
the occupants to assist 911 operators to provide the most
appropriate emergency services. If you do not want to disclose
this information, do not activate the 911 Assist feature. See your
SYNC® chapter for more information.

Calculating Fuel Economy
Do not measure fuel economy during the first 1000 miles
(1600 kilometers) of driving (this is your engine’s break-in period); a
more accurate measurement is obtained after 2000 miles–3000 miles
(3200 kilometers–4800 kilometers). Also, fuel expense, frequency of
fill-ups or fuel gauge readings are not accurate ways to measure fuel
economy.
1. Fill the fuel tank completely and record the initial odometer reading.
2. Each time you fill the tank, record the amount of fuel added.
3. After at least three to five tank fill-ups, fill the fuel tank and record
the current odometer reading.
4. Subtract your initial odometer reading from the current odometer
reading.
5. Calculate fuel economy as follows:
Standard: Divide miles traveled by gallons used.
Metric: Multiply liters used by 100, then divide by kilometers traveled.
Keep a record for at least one month and record the type of driving
(city or highway). This provides an accurate estimate of the vehicle’s fuel
economy under current driving conditions. Additionally, keeping records
during summer and winter show how temperature impacts fuel economy.
In general, lower temperatures mean lower fuel economy.
EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
WARNING:Do not park, idle, or drive your vehicle in dry grass
or other dry ground cover. The emission system heats up the
engine compartment and exhaust system, which can start a fire.
WARNING:Exhaust leaks may result in entry of harmful and
potentially lethal fumes into the passenger compartment. If you
smell exhaust fumes inside your vehicle, have your dealer inspect your
vehicle immediately. Do not drive if you smell exhaust fumes.

Note:During normal vehicle operation, the coolant may change color
from orange to pink or light red. As long as the coolant is clear and
uncontaminated, this color change does not indicate the coolant has
degraded nor does it require the coolant to be drained, the system
to be flushed, or the 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 coolants may harm your
cooling system. The use of an improper coolant may harm engine,
inverter system controller, and cooling system components and may
void the warranty.
•
In case of emergency, a large amount of water without engine coolant
may be added to the engine cooling system only in order to reach a
vehicle service location. In this instance, the engine cooling system must
be drained, chemically cleaned with Motorcraft® Premium Cooling
System Flush, and refilled with prediluted engine coolant as soon as
possible. Water alone (without engine coolant) can cause engine damage
from corrosion, overheating, or freezing. DO NOT use this method for
the inverter system controller cooling system. The inverter system
controller cooling system operates close to ambient temperature, and is
susceptible to freezing in any subfreezing environment in the absence of
coolant.
•Do not use alcohol, methanol, brine or any engine coolants mixed with
alcohol or methanol antifreeze (coolant). Alcohol and other liquids can
cause engine damage from overheating or freezing.
•Do not add extra inhibitors or additives to the coolant. These can be
harmful and compromise the corrosion protection of the coolant.
Adding Engine Coolant
1. Remove the Easy Fuel funnel from the storage compartment. Refer to
Running Out of Fuelfor the location of the Easy Fuel funnel.
2. Unscrew the engine coolant reservoir cap slowly. Any pressure will
escape as you unscrew the cap.
3. Position the Easy Fuel funnel in the engine coolant reservoir opening.
Push the Easy Fuel funnel neck fully into the engine coolant reservoir,
past the vent tube, in order to avoid pouring the coolant into the vent
tube and spilling the coolant on the ground.
4. Add prediluted engine coolant to the engine coolant reservoir. Make
sure that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks on the engine
coolant reservoir. Use prediluted engine coolant meeting the Ford
specification. See the technical specifications chart in theCapacities
and Specificationschapter.

brake system damage.2Approximate dry fill capacity. Actual amount may vary during fluid changes.3Automatic transmissions that require Motorcraft MERCON® LV transmission fluid should only use
Motorcraft MERCON® LV transmission fluid.
Refer toscheduled maintenanceto determine the correct service interval. Use of any fluid other
than the recommended fluid may cause transmission damage.4Use of synthetic or synthetic blend motor oil is not mandatory. Engine oil need only meet the
requirements of Ford specification WSS-M2C945-A, SAE 5W-20, GF5, and display the API Certification
Mark.5Your engine has been designed to be used with Ford engine oil, which gives a fuel economy benefit
while maintaining the durability of your engine.Using oils other than the one specified can result in longer engine cranking periods, reduced engine
performance, reduced fuel economy and increased emission levels.6Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.

Route Prefsto set route preferences like avoiding freeways, tollroads,
ferries and car trains as well as to use or not use high-occupancy vehicle
lanes. (High-occupancy vehicle lanes also known as carpool or diamond
lanes. People who ride in buses, vanpools or carpools use these lanes.)
Note:If your vehicle is on a recognized road and you do not press the
Start Routebutton, the system defaults to theFastest Routeoption
and begins guidance.
