check engine FORD FOCUS 2013 3.G ST Supplement Manual

Oil pressure gauge
Indicates engine oil pressure.
During normal driving the indicated oil pressure will vary with engine
speed, the pressure rising as engine speed rises and dropping as engine
speed drops.
If the engine oil pressure drops below the normal range, the oil pressure
gauge pointer will drop into the red section of the gauge scale and the
engine oil pressure warning lamp in the main instrument cluster will
illuminate. Stop the vehicle as soon as safely possible and switch off the
engine immediately. Check the oil level and add oil if needed.

CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL
Refer to thescheduled maintenance informationfor the appropriate
intervals for checking the engine oil.
1. Make sure the vehicle is on level ground.
2. Turn the engine off and wait 15 minutes for the oil to drain into the
oil pan.
Note:The oil dipstick on the Focus ST is integrated into the oil drain
back system. The oil reading on the dipstick will be influenced by oil
draining back into the sump from the cylinder head if the oil level is
checked without waiting 15 minutes after shutdown.
3. Set the parking brake and make sure the transmission selector lever is
securely latched in first gear.
4. Open the hood. Protect yourself from engine heat.

5. Locate and carefully remove the engine oil level dipstick.
6. Wipe the dipstick clean. Insert the dipstick fully, then remove it again.
A. MIN
B. MAX
•If the oil level is between the MIN and MAX marks, the oil level is
acceptable. DO NOT ADD OIL.
•If the oil level is below the MIN mark, add enough oil to raise the level
within the MIN and MAX marks
•The maximum oil level is between the upper hash mark and the MAX
mark. Oil levels above this range may cause engine damage. Some oil
must be removed from the engine by an authorized dealer.
7. Put the dipstick back in and make sure it is fully seated.
ENGINE COOLANT
The concentration and level of engine coolant should be checked at the
mileage intervals listed in thescheduled maintenance information.
Note:Make sure that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks on
the engine coolant reservoirs.
Note:For best results, coolant concentration should be tested with a
refractometer such as Rotunda tool 300-ROB75240E available from your
dealer. Ford does not recommend the use of hydrometers or coolant test
strips for measuring coolant concentrations.
Note:Coolant expands when it is hot. The level may extend beyond the
MAX mark. If the level is at the MIN mark, add coolant immediately.
Be sure to read and understandPrecautionsin yourOwner’s Manual.
If the coolant has not been checked at the recommended interval, the
engine or intercooler coolant reservoir may become low or empty. If the
reservoir is low or empty, add coolant to the reservoir. Refer toAdding
coolantin this chapter.
Note:Automotive fluids are not interchangeable; do not use engine
coolant/antifreeze or windshield washer fluid outside of its specified
function and vehicle location. For more information about engine coolant,
see theMaintenancechapter of theOwner’s Manual.

•Note:Do not add extra inhibitors or additives to the coolant. These
can be harmful and compromise the corrosion protection of the engine
coolant.
Unscrew the cap slowly. Any pressure will escape as you unscrew the cap.
Add prediluted engine coolant meeting the Ford specification. See
Capacities and Specificationsfor more information. Whenever coolant has
been added, the coolant level in the coolant reservoir should be checked the
next few times you drive the vehicle. If necessary, add enough prediluted
coolant to bring the coolant level to the proper level and concentration.
Coolant Refill Procedure
The following procedure should be used when refilling the cooling
system after it has been drained or become extremely low.
1. Remove the pressure relief cap from the coolant reservoir as
previously outlined.
2. Slowly add prediluted coolant to the coolant reservoir until the coolant
level is between the MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir.
3. Reinstall the pressure relief cap.
4. Start and idle the engine until the upper radiator hose is warm (this
indicates that the thermostat is open and coolant is flowing through the
entire system).
5. Shut the engine off and let it cool.
6. Remove the pressure relief cap from the coolant reservoir as
previously outlined.
7. Add prediluted coolant to the coolant reservoir until the coolant level
is between the MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir.
8. Reinstall the pressure relief cap.
9. Check the coolant level in the reservoir before you drive your vehicle
the next few times (with the engine cool).
10. If necessary, add prediluted coolant to the coolant reservoir until the
coolant level is between the MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir.
Whenever coolant has been added, the coolant level in the coolant
reservoir should be checked the next few times you drive the vehicle. If
necessary, add prediluted coolant to bring the coolant to the proper level.
If you have to add more than 1.0 quart (1.0 liter) of coolant per month,
have your dealer check the cooling system. Your cooling system may
have a leak. Operating an engine with a low level of coolant can result in
engine overheating and possible engine damage.
