Add 8 oz. (236 ml) of Additive Friction Modifier XL-3 or equivalent meeting Ford
Specification EST-M2C118– A for complete refill of limited slip Ford axles. Ford design
rear axles contain a synthetic lubricant that does not require changing unless you submerge
the axle in water.
2 Ford recommends using Motorcraft (Ford) DOT 3 LV High Performance Motor Vehicle
Brake Fluid, Motorcraft (Ford) DOT 4 LV High Performance Motor Vehicle Brake Fluid or
equivalent meeting WSS-M6C65-A1 or WSS-M6C65-A2. Use of any fluid other than the
recommended fluid may cause degraded brake performance and not meet the Ford
performance standards. Keep brake fluid clean and dry. Contamination with dirt, water,
petroleum products or other materials may result in brake system damage and possible
failure.
3 Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.
4 Ford has designed your engine to use Motorcraft engine oils or equivalent oils that meet
Ford ’s specification. It is also acceptable to use an engine oil of recommended viscosity
grade that meets API SN requirements and displays the API Certification Mark for gasoline
engines.
5 Do not use oils labeled as API SN unless the label also display the API certification mark.
These oils do not meet the requirements of your vehicles engine and emissions system.
6 Do not use supplemental engine oil additives. They are unnecessary and could lead to
engine damage not covered by your Ford warranty.
7 Use the correct automatic transmission fluid. Transmission fluid requirements are
indicated on the dipstick blade or the dipstick handle. Check the container to verify the
fluid you are adding is of the correct type. Refer to your scheduled maintenance information
to determine the correct service interval.
Note: Automatic transmissions that require MERCON LV should only use MERCON LV fluid.
Use of any fluid other than the recommended fluid may cause transmission damage.
8 Indicates only approximate dry-fill capacity. Some applications may vary based on cooler
size and if equipped with an in-tank cooler. You should set the amount of transmission
fluid and fluid level by the indication on the dipstick’ s normal operating range.
9 Fill to the proper capacity according to dipstick Type A. For correct dipstick type, See
Automatic Transmission Fluid Check (page 231).
9 Fill to the proper capacity according to dipstick Type B. For correct dipstick type, See
Automatic Transmission Fluid Check
(page 231).
10 See the Warning below: WARNING
The air conditioning refrigerant system contains refrigerant R-134a under high
pressure. Opening the air conditioning refrigerant system can cause personal injury.
Have the air conditioning refrigerant system serviced only by qualified personnel.

•
MP3 folder mode represents a folder
structure consisting of one level of
folders. The CD player numbers all MP3
tracks on the disc (noted by the .mp3
file extension) and all folders
containing MP3 files, from F001
(folder) T001 (track) to F253 T255.
• Creating discs with only one level of
folders helps with navigation through
the disc files.
If you are burning your own MP3 discs, it is
important to understand how the system
reads the structures you create. While
various files may be present, (files with
extensions other than mp3), only files with
the .mp3 extension are played; other files
are ignored by the system. This enables
you to use the same MP3 disc for a variety
of tasks on your work computer, home
computer and your in-vehicle system. In track mode, the system displays and
plays the structure as if it were only one
level deep (all .mp3 files play, regardless
of being in a specific folder). In folder
mode, the system only plays the .mp3 files
in the current folder.
