Essential Information
Location of Spare Tire: If you get a flat tire while driving, do not apply the brake heavily. Instead,
gradually decrease your speed. Hold the steering wheel firmly and slow\
ly move to a safe place
on the side of the road. Your vehicle is equipped with a temporary spare tire located under the
vehicle, just forward of the rear bumper. The temporary spare is designed for emergency use only
and should be replaced as soon as possible. The jack and tools are locat\
ed under the carpeted
floor panel in the rear cargo area. For complete details on how to cha\
nge your tire, refer to the
Roadside Emergencies chapter in your Owner’s Guide.
Fuel Type and Tank Capacity: Your fuel tank capacity is 22.5 gallons (85.2L). Your vehicle is
designed to use “Regular” unleaded gasoline with an octane rating \
of 87. Do not use gasoline
labeled as “Regular” in high altitude areas that are sold with oct\
ane ratings less than 87.
Do not use E85 fuels, because your vehicle was not designed to run on fu\
els with more than
10% ethanol.
Tire Pressure: Your tire pressure is properly set at the dealership according to the rec\
ommended
specifications found on the Safety Compliance Certification Label or\
Tire Label located on the
B-Pillar or the edge of the driver’s door. Check your tire pressure at least once a month and
before long trips (including spare). As an added safety feature, your \
vehicle may be equipped
with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure warning light
when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Improperly inflated tires can
affect vehicle handling and can fail suddenly, possibly resulting in loss of vehicle control. Refer
to the Tires, Wheels and Loading chapter in your Owner’s Guide for more information.
Fuel Pump Shut-Off Switch: The fuel pump shut-off switch is a device intended to stop the
electric fuel pump when your vehicle has been involved in a substantial \
jolt. The switch is located
in the passenger’s footwell, by the kick panel. After a collision, if the engine cranks b\
ut does not
start, the fuel pump shut-off switch may have been activated. For more information regarding
the fuel pump shut-off switch, refer to the Roadside Emergencies chapter of your Owner’s Guide.
Easy Fuel
™ ‘no cap’ Fuel System: Your vehicle has a ‘no cap’ fuel system which allows you to
simply open the fuel filler door, insert the nozzle and start fueling. Ensure that you wait about
five seconds before pulling out the nozzle in order to allow any resid\
ual fuel to drain into the
tank. The Easy Fuel™ System is self-sealing and therefore protected a\
gainst dust, dirt, water,
snow and ice. If you need to fill your fuel tank with a portable fuel \
container, use the fuel funnel
which is either attached to the underside of the spare tire cover or wit\
h the tire changing tools.
Slowly insert the funnel into the Easy Fuel™ system and fill the ta\
nk with fuel from the container.
When done, clean the funnel or properly dispose of it. Extra funnels can\
be purchased from your
authorized dealer. Do not use aftermarket funnels as they will not work with the Easy Fuel™
system and may cause damage.
Roadside Assistance: Your new Ford Explorer comes with the assurance and support of 24-hour
emergency roadside assistance. Roadside assistance includes such service\
s as: lockout assistance,
limited fuel delivery, battery jump starts, changing a flat tire, towing, and winch out. To receive
roadside assistance in the United States, call 1 (800) 241-3673. In Ca\
