ESSENTIAL INFORMATION
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM Your vehicle has a tire pressure monitoring system that lights a low
tire pressure warning light in your instrument cluster when one
or more of your tires are significantly under-inflated. If this happens,
stop and check your tires as soon as possible. Inflate them to the
proper pressure.
Refer to the Tire Pressure Monitoring System section in the
Wheels and Tires chapter of your Owner’s Manual for
more information.
LOCATION OF SPARE TIRE AND TOOLS Your spare tire and tools are beneath the carpeted floor panel in
the rear of your vehicle. The spare tire is designed for emergency
use only and should be replaced as soon as possible. For complete
details on changing your tire, refer to the Changing a Road Wheel
section in the Wheels and Tires chapter in your Owner’s Manual.
OPEN WINDOW BUFFETING You may hear a pulsing noise when just one of the windows is
open. Lower the opposite window slightly to reduce this noise.
ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE Your new Ford vehicle comes with the assurance and support of
24-hour emergency roadside assistance.
To receive roadside assistance in the United States, call
1-800-241-3673. In Canada, call 1-800-665-2006.
PRE-COLLISION ASSIST SYSTEM* This system alerts you of certain collision risks. The system’s
sensor detects your vehicle’s rapid approach to other vehicles
traveling in the same direction as your vehicle.
When your vehicle rapidly approaches another vehicle, a red
warning light flashes and a tone sounds. The brake support
system assists you in reducing any collision speed by
pre-charging the brakes. If the risk of collision continues to
increases after the audio-visual warning, the brake support
prepares the brake system for rapid braking. The system does
not automatically activate the brakes, but if the brake pedal
is pressed even lightly, the brakes apply full stopping power.
