Protecting your investment
Maintenance is an investment that will pay dividends in the form of
improved reliability, durability and resale value. To maintain the proper
performance of your vehicle and its emission control systems, it is
imperative that scheduled maintenance be completed at the designated
intervals.
Your vehicle is equipped with an information display which displays a
message at the proper oil change service interval; the interval is one year
or 10000 miles (16000 kilometers) under normal driving conditions.
When ENGINE OIL CHANGE DUE NEXT SERVICE or OIL CHANGE
REQUIRED appears in the information display, it’s time for an oil change;
the oil change must be done within two weeks or 500 miles
(800 kilometers) of the ENGINE OIL CHANGE DUE NEXT SERVICE or
OIL CHANGE REQUIRED message appearing. The oil minder system
must be reset after each oil change; see theInstrument Clusterchapter.
If your information display is prematurely reset or becomes inoperative,
you should perform the oil change interval at six months or 5000 miles
(8000 kilometers) from your last oil change.
Your vehicle is very sophisticated and built with multiple, complex,
performance systems. Every manufacturer develops these systems using
different specifications and performance features. That is why it is
important to rely upon your dealership to properly diagnose and repair
your vehicle.
Ford Motor Company has recommended maintenance intervals for
various parts and component systems based upon engineering testing.
Ford Motor Company relies upon this testing to determine the most
appropriate mileage for replacement of oils and fluids to protect your
vehicle at the lowest overall cost to you and recommends against
maintenance schedules that deviate from the scheduled maintenance
information.
Ford strongly recommends the use of only genuine Ford, Motorcraft® or
Ford-authorized remanufactured replacement parts because they are
engineered for your vehicle.
Additives and Chemicals
Ford Motor Company recommended additives and chemicals are listed in
the owner manual and in the Ford Workshop Manual. Additional
chemicals or additives not approved by Ford are not recommended as
part of normal maintenance. Please consult your warranty information.
