Body
•Wash vehicle thoroughly to remove dirt, grease, oil, tar or mud from
exterior surfaces, rear-wheel housing and underside of front fenders.
•Periodically wash vehicles stored in exposed locations.
•Touch up raw or primed metal to prevent rust.
•Cover chrome and stainless steel parts with a thick coat of auto wax
to prevent discoloration. Re-wax as necessary when the vehicle is
washed.
•Lubricate hood latch, all door latches and trunk lid hinges with a light
grade oil.
•Cover interior trim to prevent fading.
•Keep all rubber parts free from oil and solvents.
Engine
•The engine oil and filter should be changed prior to storage, as used
engine oil contains contaminates that may cause engine damage.
•Start the engine every 15 days. Run at fast idle until it reaches normal
operating temperature.
•With your foot on the brake, shift through all the gears while the
engine is running.
Fuel system
•Fill the fuel tank with high-quality fuel until the first automatic shutoff
of the fuel pump nozzle.
Cooling system
•Protect against freezing temperatures.
•When removing vehicle from storage, check coolant fluid level.
Confirm there are no cooling system leaks, and fluid is at the
recommended level.
Battery
•Check and recharge as necessary. Keep connections clean.
•If storing your vehicle for more than 30 days without recharging the
battery, it may be advisable to disconnect the battery cables to ensure
battery charge is maintained for quick starting.
Note:If battery cables are disconnected, it will be necessary to reset
memory features.

3. Cycle the ignition to the on position with the engine off.
4. Turn the hazard flashers on then off three times. This must be
accomplished within 10 seconds.
If the reset mode has been entered successfully, the horn will sound
once, the system indicator will flash and the message center (if
equipped) will displayTRAIN LEFT FRONT TIRE. If this does not
occur, please try again starting at Step 2.
If after repeated attempts to enter the reset mode, the horn does not
sound, the system indicator does not flash and the message center (if
equipped) does not displayTRAIN LEFT FRONT TIRE, seek service
from your authorized dealer.
5. Train the tire pressure monitoring system sensors in the tires using
the following system reset sequence starting with the left front tire in
the following clockwise order:
•Left front (Driver’s side front tire)
•Right front (Passenger’s side front tire)
•Right rear (Passenger’s side rear tire)
•Left rear (Driver’s side rear tire)
6. Remove the valve cap from the valve stem on the left front tire;
decrease the air pressure until the horn sounds.
Note:The single horn chirp confirms that the sensor identification code
has been learned by the module for this position. If a double horn is
heard, the reset procedure was unsuccessful, and must be repeated.
7. Remove the valve cap from the valve stem on the right front tire;
decrease the air pressure until the horn sounds.
8. Remove the valve cap from the valve stem on the right rear tire;
decrease the air pressure until the horn sounds.
9. Remove the valve cap from the valve stem on the left rear tire;
decrease the air pressure until the horn sounds.
Training is complete after the horn sounds for the last tire trained
(driver’s side rear tire), the system indicator stops flashing, and the
message center (if equipped) displays:
TRAINING COMPLETE.
10. Turn the ignition off. If two short horn beeps are heard, the reset
procedure was unsuccessful and must be repeated.

2. Place the transmission in park (P) and turn the engine off.
3. To remove the spare tire, open
the rear doors and remove the
thumb screw and anti-theft bracket.
If finger pressure will not remove
the thumb screw, use the lug
wrench to loosen the screw.
4. Remove the access plug under
the left door.
5. Remove the jack handle from the
right side compartment and insert the
tip of the jack handle through the
access hole and into the tube.
6. Turn the jack handle
counterclockwise until the cable is
slack and the tire can be slid from
under the vehicle.
7. Remove the retainer from the spare tire.
To stow the cable retainer with the spare removed, turn the jack handle
clockwise until all slack is removed.
8. Block the wheel that is diagonally opposite the tire you are changing.
On E-450 vehicles, the parking brake is on the transmission. Therefore,
the vehicle will not be prevented from moving when a rear wheel is
lifted, even if the parking brake is applied. Be sure to block both
directions of the wheel that is diagonally opposite to the wheel that is
being lifted.
9. Remove the spare tire and jack from the storage location.
10. Remove any wheel trim. Insert the tapered end of the lug nut wrench
behind the wheel covers or hubcaps and twist off.
11. Loosen the wheel nut by pulling up on the handle of the lug nut
wrench about one-half turn (counterclockwise). Do not remove the
wheel lug nuts until you raise the tire off the ground.

1Ford recommends using Motorcraft (Ford) DOT 4 LV High Performance Brake Fluid or
equivalent meeting WSS-M6C65-A2. Use of any fluid other than the recommended fluid may
cause degraded brake performance and not meet the Ford performance standards. Keep brake
fluid clean and dry. Contamination with dirt, water, petroleum products or other materials may
result in brake system damage and possible failure.2Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.3Use of synthetic or synthetic blend motor oil is not mandatory. Your engine has been designed
to use Motorcraft engine oils or equivalent oils that meet Ford specifications. It is also acceptable
to use an engine oil of recommended viscosity grade that meets API SN requirements and
displays the API Certification Mark for gasoline engines.4Do not use supplemental engine oil additives in your engine. They are unnecessary and could
lead to engine damage that is not covered by your Ford warranty.5Do not use API S category oils labeled as SN, SM, SL or lower category unless the label also
display the API certification mark. These oils do not meet the requirements of the engine and
emission systems.6Automatic transmissions that require MERCON LV should only use MERCON LV fluid. Refer to
scheduled maintenance informationto determine the correct service interval. Use of any fluid
other than the recommended fluid may cause transmission damage.7See your authorized dealer for fluid level checking or filling.8Fill Dana rear axles to 1/4 inch to 9/16 inch (6 mm to 14 mm) below bottom of fill hole.9Optional fuel tank 55.0 gallons (208.0L).10
