alarm FORD F150 2012 12.G Quick Reference Guide

Easy FuEl® syst Em
Your vehicle has a ‘no cap’ fuel system which allows
you to simply open the fuel filler door, insert the nozzle
and start fueling. Wait five seconds from the time the
refueling nozzle is shut-off until the nozzle is pulled
back out of the fill pipe to allow residual fuel in the
nozzle to drain into the tank. The Easy Fuel
® system is
self-sealing and therefore protected against 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 located under the second row driver side seat, near
the spare tire tool box. Slowly insert the funnel into the
Easy Fuel
® system and fill the tank 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.
Fu El typE /tank Capa City/FlEx FuEl
Your vehicle is equipped with either a 26 gallon
(98.4L) or a 36 gallon (136.2L) fuel tank. You may
have a Flex Fuel Vehicle. Flex fuel vehicles have a
yellow ring around the top of the fuel filler inlet (tube)
and can use either regular unleaded fuel, E85 ethanol
fuel or any mixture of the two. If you do not have a flex
fuel vehicle, then only use “Regular” unleaded gasoline
with an octane rating of 87. Do not use E85 fuels,
because your vehicle was not designed to run on
fuels with more than 10% ethanol.
t irE prEssurE
Your tire pressure is properly set at the dealership
according to the recommended 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 the spare). As an added
safety feature, your vehicle has been 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. r

l oC ation oF spar E tirE
A temporary spare tire is located under the vehicle,
just forward of the rear bumper. The temporary spare

replaced as soon as possible. The jack and tools are

seat, attached to a floor bracket under the rear seat on
the driver’s side or in a plastic box in the floor under the
