ENGINE COOLANT CHECK
Checking the Engine Coolant
When the engine is cold, check the
concentration and level of the engine
coolant at the intervals listed in the
scheduled maintenance information. See
Scheduled Maintenance (page 396). Note:
Make sure that the level is between
the MIN and MAX marks on the coolant
reservoir.
Note: Coolant expands when it is hot. The
level may extend beyond the MAX mark
Note: If the level is at the MIN mark, below
the MIN mark, or empty, add coolant
immediately. See Adding Engine Coolant
in this chapter.
The coolant concentration should be
maintained at 50%.
Note: For best results, coolant
concentration should be tested with a
refractometer such as Rotunda tool
ROB75240 available from your dealer. Ford
does not recommend the use of
hydrometers or coolant test strips for
measuring coolant concentrations.
Note: Automotive fluids are not
interchangeable. Do not use engine coolant
or antifreeze or windshield washer fluid
outside of its specified function and vehicle
location.
Adding Engine Coolant
WARNINGS
Do not add engine 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.
Do not put engine coolant in the
windshield washer fluid container. If
sprayed on the windshield, engine
coolant could make it difficult to see
through the windshield.
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.

Safety Information
WARNING
Driving while distracted can result in
loss of vehicle control, accident and
injury. Ford strongly recommends
that drivers use extreme caution when
using any device or feature that may take
their focus off the road. Your primary
responsibility is the safe operation of the
vehicle. We recommend against the use
of any handheld device while driving,
encourage the use of voice-operated
systems when possible and that you
become aware of applicable state and
local laws that may affect use of electronic
devices while driving.
When using SYNC:
• Do not operate playing devices if the
power cords or cables are broken, split
or damaged. Carefully place cords and
cables where they cannot be stepped
on or interfere with the operation of
pedals, seats, compartments or safe
driving abilities.
• Do not leave playing devices in the
vehicle during extreme conditions as it
could cause them damage. Refer to
your device's user guide for further
information. •
Do not attempt to service or repair the
system. See your authorized dealer.
• For your safety, some SYNC functions
are speed-dependent and cannot be
performed when the vehicle is traveling
at speeds greater than 3 mph (5 km/h).
Make sure that you review your device's
user guide before using it with SYNC.
Speed-Restricted Features
Some features of this system may be too
difficult to use while the vehicle is in
motion so they're restricted from being
modified unless the vehicle is not moving.
Some examples of these are listed below:
• Screens that are too crowded with
information, such as Point of Interest
(POI) reviews and ratings, SIRIUS
Travel Link sports scores, movie times,
ski conditions, etc.
• Any action that requires using a
keyboard, such as entering a navigation
destination or editing information
• All lists are limited so the user can view
fewer entries (e.g. phone contacts,
recent phone call entries)
Listed below are more specific features
that can only be modified while the vehicle
is not moving:
Restricted Features
Pairing a Bluetooth phone

Adding phonebook contacts or uploading phonebook
contacts (from a USB)

Privacy Information
When a mobile phone is connected to
SYNC, SYNC creates a profile within your
vehicle that is linked to that mobile phone.
This profile is created in order to offer you
more mobile features and to operate more
efficiently. Among other things, this profile
may contain data about your mobile phone
book, text messages (read and unread),
and call history, including history of calls
when your mobile phone was not
connected to SYNC. In addition, if you
connect a media device, SYNC creates and
retains an index of media content
supported by SYNC. SYNC also records a
short development log of approximately
10 minutes of all recent SYNC activity. The
log profile and other SYNC data may be
used to improve SYNC and help diagnose
any problems that may occur. The mobile profile, media device index, and
development log will remain in the vehicle
unless you delete it and are generally
accessible only in the vehicle when the
mobile phone or media player is
connected. If you no longer plan to use
SYNC, or the vehicle, we recommend you
perform a Master Reset to erase all
information stored in SYNC.
