For filling information, please refer to the
Capacities and Specifications section of
your owner's manual. See Engine Oil
Capacity and Specification (page 392).
CHECKING THE COOLANT
When the engine is cold, check the
concentration and level of the coolant at
the intervals listed in the scheduled
maintenance information. See Scheduled
Maintenance (page 482).
Note:Make sure that the coolant level is
between the minimum and maximum marks
on the coolant reservoir.
Note: Coolant expands when it is hot. The
level may extend beyond the MAX mark.
If the coolant level is at or below the
minimum mark, add prediluted coolant
immediately.
Maintain coolant concentration within
48% to 50%, which equates to a freeze
point between -29°F (-34°C) and -35°F
(-37°C). Coolant concentration should be
checked using a refractometer. We do not
recommend the use of hydrometers or
coolant test strips for measuring coolant
concentration.

WHAT IS THE TIRE SEALANT
AND INFLATOR KIT
The kit consists of an air compressor to
re-inflate the tire and a canister of sealing
compound that effectively seals most
punctures. This kit provides a temporary
tire repair allowing you to drive your vehicle
up to 120 mi (200 km) at a maximum
speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) to reach a tire
service location.
TIRE SEALANT AND INFLATOR
KIT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Failure to follow these
guidelines could result in an increased
risk of loss of vehicle control, injury or
death.
WARNING: Do not run the engine
when operating the air compressor
unless the vehicle is outdoors or in a
well-ventilated area.
Note: Do not use the kit if a tire has become
severely damaged. Only punctures located
within the tire tread can be sealed with the
kit.
Do not attempt to repair punctures larger
than 0.24 in (6 mm) or damage to the tire's
sidewall. The tire may not completely seal.
• Drive carefully and avoid abrupt steering maneuvers.
• Periodically monitor tire inflation pressure in the affected tire; if the tire
is losing pressure, have the vehicle
towed.
• Read the information in the Tips for Use of the Kit section to make sure safe
operation of the kit and your vehicle.
LOCATING THE TIRE SEALANT
AND INFLATOR KIT
The kit is located under the load floor in

AM/FM RADIO
AM/FM RADIO LIMITATIONS
The further you travel from an AM or FM
station, the weaker the signal and the
weaker the reception.
Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges,
tunnels, freeway overpasses, parking
garages, dense tree foliage and
thunderstorms can interfere with the
reception.
When you pass a ground-based broadcast
repeating tower, a stronger signal may
overtake a weaker one and result in the
audio system muting.

DIGITAL RADIO
WHAT IS DIGITAL RADIO
HD Radioâ„¢ technology is the digital
evolution of analog AM/FM radio.
For additional information, visit
www
.HDRadio.com.
HD Radio Technology is manufactured
under license from iBiquity Digital
Corporation and foreign patents. HD Radio
and the HD and HD Radio logos are
proprietary trademarks of DTS. The vehicle
manufacturer and DTS are not responsible
for the content sent using HD Radio
technology. Content may be changed,
added or deleted at any time at the station
owner's discretion.
HOW DOES DIGITAL RADIO WORK
Your system has a special receiver that
allows it to receive digital broadcasts in
addition to analog broadcasts.
412
Audio System

HD1 signifies the main programming status
and is available in both analog and digital
broadcasts. Other multicast stations are
only available digitally and could contain
new or different content.
Note:When the system first receives an
HD1 station, it plays the station in the analog
version until it verifies the station is an HD
Radio station. Then it shifts to the digital
version.
Note: There is an audio mute delay when
switching to an HD2 or HD3 station because
the system has to reacquire and decode the
digital signal.
DIGITAL RADIO LIMITATIONS
If you are outside the reception area, the
system could not work.
If you are on the fringe of the reception
area, the station could mute due to weak
signal strength.
Note: If you are listening to HD1, the system
changes back to the analog broadcast until
the digital broadcast is available again. If
you are listening to any other multicast
channels, the station mutes and stays
muted unless it is able to connect to the
digital signal again.
Depending on the station quality, you could
hear a slight sound change when the
station changes between analog and
digital audio.
You cannot access a saved HD station if
your vehicle is outside the station’s
reception area.
SWITCHING DIGITAL RADIO
RECEPTION ON AND OFF
1. Access the vehicle drawer on the touchscreen.
2. Press SETTINGS.
3. Press Radio. 4. Switch HD Radio on or off.
DIGITAL RADIO INDICATORS

The color of the indicator changes to
indicate the system status.
Gray indicates the system is acquiring a

Audio System

(read and unread), and call history,
including history of calls when your cellular
phone was not connected to the system.
In addition, if you connect a media device,
the system creates and retains an index of
supported media content. The system also
records a short development log of
approximately 10 minutes of all recent
system activity. The log profile and other
system data may be used to improve the
system and help diagnose any problems
that may occur.
The cellular profile, media device index,
and development log will remain in the
vehicle unless you delete them and are
generally accessible only in the vehicle
when you connect the cellular phone or
media player. If you no longer plan to use
the system or the vehicle, we recommend
you perform a Master Reset to erase all
stored information.
No one can access system data without
special equipment and access to the
vehicle's SYNC module. Ford Motor
Company and Ford of Canada will not
access the system data for any purpose
other than as described absent consent, acourt 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. For further privacy
information, see the section on 911 Assist.
