ignition FORD FIESTA 2013 Owner's Manual

Service Engine Soon
If the service engine soon indicator light stays illuminated after
the engine is started, it indicates that the On Board Diagnostics
system (OBD) has detected a malfunction of the vehicle
emissions control system. Refer toOn board diagnostics (OBD)in the
Fuel and Refuelingchapter for more information about having your
vehicle serviced.
If the light is blinking, engine misfire is occurring which could damage
your catalytic converter. Drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy
acceleration and deceleration) and have your vehicle serviced
immediately.
Note:Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust temperatures
could damage the catalytic converter or other vehicle components.
The service engine soon indicator light illuminates when the ignition is
first turned on prior to engine start to check the bulb and to indicate
whether the vehicle is ready for Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) testing.
Normally, the service engine soon light will stay on until the engine is
cranked, then turn itself off if no malfunctions are present. However, if
after 15 seconds the service engine soon light blinks eight times, it
means that the vehicle is not ready for I/M testing. SeeReadiness for
Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) testingin theFuel and Refueling
chapter.
Shift Indicator (If Equipped)
It will illuminate when the manual transmission should be
shifted to a higher gear, to maximize fuel economy.
Stability Control System
It will flash when the system is active. It will illuminate when
you switch the ignition on to confirm it is functional. If it
remains illuminated or does not illuminate when you switch the
ignition on, this indicates a malfunction. During a malfunction the system
will switch off. Have the system checked by your authorized dealer.
Stability Control System Off
It will illuminate when you switch off the system. It will go out
when you switch the system back on or when you switch the
ignition off.

HEATED SEATS (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING:Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin
because of advanced age, chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord
injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaustion, or other physical conditions,
must exercise care when using the seat heater. The seat heater may
cause burns even at low temperatures, especially if used for long
periods of time. Do not place anything on the seat that insulates against
heat, such as a blanket or cushion, because this may cause the seat
heater to overheat. Do not puncture the seat with pins, needles, or
other pointed objects because this may damage the heating element
which may cause the seat heater to overheat. An overheated seat may
cause serious personal injury.
Note:Do not do the following:
•Place heavy objects on the seat
•Operate the seat heater if water or any other liquid is spilled on the
seat. Allow the seat to dry thoroughly.
Your heated seats include both a heated seat cushion and heated
seatback.
To operate the heated seats:
•Press the button located on the instrument panel to
activate.
•Press again to deactivate.
The heated seats will activate when the ignition is in the on position and
the engine is running.
REAR SEATS
Folding Down the Rear Seat
WARNING:Before returning the seat back to its original
position, make sure that cargo or any objects are not trapped
behind the seat back. Make sure that the safety belt is not laying on the
seat latch. After returning the seat back to its original position, pull on
the seat back to ensure that it has fully latched. An unlatched seat may
become dangerous in the event of a sudden stop or collision.

GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING:Extended idling at high engine speeds can produce
very high temperatures in the engine and exhaust system,
creating the risk of fire or other damage.
WARNING:Do not park, idle, or drive your vehicle on dry grass
or other dry ground cover. The emission system heats up the
engine compartment and exhaust system, which can start a fire.
WARNING:Do not start your vehicle in a closed garage or in
other enclosed areas. Exhaust fumes can be toxic. Always open
the garage door before you start the engine.
WARNING:If you smell exhaust fumes inside your vehicle, have
your vehicle checked by an authorized dealer immediately. Do
not drive if you smell exhaust fumes.
If you disconnect the battery, your vehicle may exhibit some unusual
driving characteristics for approximately 5 miles (8 kilometers) after you
connect it. This is because the engine management system must realign
itself with the engine. You may disregard any unusual driving
characteristics during this period.
The powertrain control system meets all Canadian interference-causing
equipment standard requirements regulating the impulse electrical field
strength of radio noise.
When starting your vehicle, avoid pressing the accelerator pedal before
and during operation. Only use the accelerator pedal when you have
difficulty starting the engine.
IGNITION SWITCH (IF EQUIPPED)
Note:When you switch the engine off and leave your vehicle, do not
leave your key in the ignition. This could discharge your vehicle battery.
