transmission FORD FIESTA 2015 Owner's Guide

•
Maximum speed is 35 mph (56 km/h).
• Maximum distance is 50 miles (80
kilometers).
Recreational Towing
Note: Put your climate control system in
recirculated air mode to prevent exhaust
fumes from entering the vehicle.
Follow these guidelines if you have a need
for recreational (RV) towing. An example
of recreational towing would be towing
your vehicle behind a motorhome. These
guidelines are designed to ensure that your
transmission is not damaged.
Vehicles with a Manual Transmission
Your vehicle can be towed with all four
wheels on the ground or with the front
wheels off the ground by using a tow dolly.
If you are using a tow dolly follow the
instructions specified by the equipment
provider. If you tow your vehicle with all
wheels on the ground, follow these
instructions:
1. Tow only with your vehicle in the forward direction. Release the parking
brake.
2. Place the transmission in neutral.
Note: Do not exceed 70 mph (113 km/h)
when towing your vehicle.
Vehicles with an Automatic
Transmission - with Ignition Switch
Note: There must be battery power to
properly move the transmission ’s internal
components to neutral in step 3. Also,
moving the gearshift to the neutral position
without first turning the ignition to the on II
position limits the towing capability to 35
mph (56 km/h) and 50 miles (80
kilometers).
1. Release the parking brake.
2. Switch the ignition to the on (II)
position. 3. Press the brake pedal, then move the
gearshift to the neutral position.
4. Wait for a message indicating that the transmission is ready in the information
and entertainment display, then switch
the ignition off and release the brake
pedal.
5. Disconnect the negative (black) cable from the battery. The anti-theft system
is disabled until the battery cable is
reconnected. See
Changing the 12V
Battery (page 186).
Note: The maximum towing speed is 70
mph (113 km/h).
Note: There is no limit on towing distance.
After towing, start the engine within 15
minutes of reconnecting the battery cable.
See
Changing the 12V Battery (page 186).
Vehicles with an Automatic
Transmission - with Keyless Starting
Note: There must be battery power to
properly move the transmission ’s internal
components to neutral in step 3. Also,
moving the gearshift to the neutral position
without first turning the ignition to the on II
position limits the towing capability to 35
mph (56 km/h) and 50 miles (80
kilometers).
1. Release the parking brake.
2. Switch the ignition on by pressing the keyless start button, but do not apply
the brake pedal.
3. Press the brake pedal, then move the gearshift to the neutral position.
Release the brake pedal.
4. Wait for a message indicating that the transmission is ready in the information
and entertainment display, then switch
the ignition off by pressing the keyless
start button.

3.
Remove your foot from the brake pedal
and press the START/STOP button
to switch off the ignition.
4. You can either attempt to start the engine by pressing the brake pedal and
the
START/STOP button, or switch
on the ignition only by pressing the
START/STOP
button without
pressing the brake pedal. Both ways
re-enable the fuel system.
Note: When you try to restart your vehicle
after a fuel shutoff, the vehicle makes sure
that various systems are safe to restart.
Once your vehicle determines that the
systems are safe, then the vehicle will allow
you to restart.
Note: In the event that your vehicle does
not restart after your third attempt, contact
an authorized dealer.
JUMP STARTING THE VEHICLE WARNINGS
The gases around the battery can
explode if exposed to flames, sparks,
or lit cigarettes. An explosion could
result in personal injury or vehicle damage. Batteries contain sulfuric acid which
can burn skin, eyes and clothing, if
contacted.
Use only an adequate-sized cable
with insulated clamps.
Preparing Your Vehicle
Note:
Do not attempt to push-start your
automatic transmission vehicle. Automatic
transmissions do not have push-start
capability. Attempting to push-start a
vehicle with an automatic transmission may
cause transmission damage.
Note: Use only a 12-volt supply to start your
vehicle. Note:
Do not disconnect the battery of the
disabled vehicle as this could damage the
vehicle's electrical system.
Park the booster vehicle close to the hood
of the disabled vehicle, making sure the
two vehicles do not touch. Turn all
accessories off.
Connecting the Jumper Cables WARNING
Do not attach the cables to fuel lines,
engine rocker covers, the intake
manifold or electrical components
as grounding points. Stay clear of moving
parts. To avoid reverse polarity
connections, make sure that you correctly
identify the positive (+) and negative (-)
terminals on both the disabled and booster
vehicles before connecting the cables. Note:
In the illustration, the bottom vehicle
represents the booster vehicle.

Unscrew the cap slowly. Any pressure will
escape as you unscrew the cap.
Add prediluted engine coolant meeting the
Ford specification. See Maintenance
(page 177).
Whenever you add coolant, check the
coolant level in the coolant reservoir the
next few times you drive the vehicle. If
necessary, add enough prediluted engine
coolant to bring the coolant level to the
correct level.
Recycled Engine Coolant
We do not recommend the use of recycled
engine coolant since a Ford-approved
recycling process is not yet available.
Used engine coolant should be disposed
of in an appropriate manner. Follow your
community ’s regulations and standards
for recycling and disposing of automotive
fluids.
Severe Climates
If you drive in extremely cold climates:
• It may be necessary to have a Ford
authorized dealer increase the coolant
concentration above 50%.
• A coolant concentration of 60% will
provide improved freeze point
protection. Engine coolant
concentrations above 60% will
decrease the overheat protection
characteristics of the engine coolant
and may cause engine damage If you drive in extremely hot climates:
•
It may be necessary to have a Ford
authorized dealer decrease the coolant
concentration to 40%.
• A coolant concentration of 40%
provides improved overheat protection.
Engine coolant concentrations below
40% will decrease the freeze and
corrosion protection characteristics of
the engine coolant and may cause
engine damage.
Vehicles driven year-round in non-extreme
climates should use prediluted engine
coolant for optimum cooling system and
engine protection.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
FLUID CHECK
Note: Transmission fluid should be checked
by an authorized dealer. If required, fluid
should be added by an authorized dealer.
The automatic transmission does not have
a transmission fluid dipstick.
Have an authorized dealer check and
change the transmission fluid at the
correct service interval. See
Scheduled
Maintenance (page 396). Your
transmission does not consume fluid.
However, the fluid level should be checked
if the transmission is not working properly,
(i.e., if the transmission slips or shifts
slowly) or if you notice some sign of fluid
leakage.
Do not use supplemental transmission
fluid additives, treatments or cleaning
agents. The use of these materials may
affect transmission operation and result
in damage to internal transmission
components.

Vehicles with 1.6L Duratec-16V Engine
1. Remove the retaining screws that
secure the air filter housing cover. 2.
Carefully lift the air filter housing cover.
3. Remove the air filter element from the
air filter housing.
4. Wipe any dirt or debris from the air filter
housing and cover to make sure no dirt
gets in the engine and to make sure you
have a good seal.
5. Install a new air filter element. Be careful not to crimp the filter element
edges between the air filter housing
and cover. This could cause filter
damage and allow unfiltered air to
enter the engine if not correctly seated.
6. Install the air filter housing cover.
7. Install the retaining screws to secure the air filter housing cover to the air
filter housing.
