warning light FORD FOCUS ELECTRIC 2012 3.G Workshop Manual

WARNING:In an emergency, add water to the cooling system to
reach an authorized dealer. Have the system checked by a
properly trained technician as soon as possible.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, make sure the
Electric Powertrain Assembly (EPA) is cool before unscrewing the
coolant pressure relief cap. The cooling system is under pressure; steam
and hot liquid can come out forcefully when the cap is loosened slightly.
WARNING: Do not add coolant further than the MAX mark.
Note: Coolant replacement can only be completed by an authorized
dealer. If not performed properly, damage could occur to the cooling
system components and may void the warranty.
Note: Do not use stop leak pellets or cooling system sealants/additives
as they can cause damage to the cooling and/or heating systems. This
damage would not be covered under your vehicle’s warranty.
Note: During normal vehicle operation, the coolant may change color
from orange to pink or light red. As long as the coolant is clear and
uncontaminated, this color change does not indicate the coolant has
degraded nor does it require the coolant to be drained, the system to be
flushed, or the coolant to be replaced.
• DO NOT MIX different colors or types of coolant in your vehicle. Make
sure the correct coolant is used. Mixing of coolants may harm your
cooling system. The use of an improper coolant may harm the Electric
Powertrain Assembly (EPA) and cooling system components and may
void the warranty.
• A large amount of water without coolant may be added, in case of
emergency, to reach a vehicle service location. In this instance, the
cooling system must be drained, chemically cleaned with Motorcraft 
Premium Cooling System Flush, and refilled with prediluted coolant as
soon as possible. Water alone (without coolant) can cause damage
from corrosion, overheating, freezing or plugging.
• Do not use alcohol, methanol, brine or any coolants mixed with
alcohol or methanol antifreeze (coolant). Alcohol and other liquids can
cause damage from overheating or freezing.
• Do not add extra inhibitors or additives to the coolant. These can be
harmful and compromise the corrosion protection of the coolant.
