CABIN AIR FILTER
Note:Make sure you have a cabin air filter installed at all times. This
prevents foreign objects from entering the system. Running the system
without a filter in place could result in degradation or damage to the
system.
Your cabin air filter is located under the instrument panel in the
passenger footwell area. The particulate filtration system reduces the
concentration of airborne particles such as dust, spores and pollen in
the air supplied to the interior of your vehicle. The particulate filtration
system gives you and your passengers the following benefits:
•It improves your driving comfort by reducing particle concentration.
•It improves the interior compartment cleanliness.
•It protects the climate control components from particle deposits.
Replace the filter at regular intervals. See theScheduled Maintenance
chapter.
For more information about your filter, see an authorized dealer.
REMOTE START CLIMATE OPERATION
The climate control system adjusts the cabin temperature during remote
start.
You cannot adjust the system during remote start operation. Turn the
ignition on to return the system to its previous settings. You can now
make adjustments. You will need to turn certain vehicle-dependent
features back on, such as:
•heated seats
•heated mirrors
•heated rear window.
You can adjust the settings using the information display controls.
See theInformation Displayschapter.

Brake-shift interlock
This vehicle is equipped with a brake-shift interlock feature that prevents
the gearshift lever from being moved from P (Park) when the ignition is in
the on position unless the brake pedal is pressed, your charge cord may be
plugged into the vehicle, or there may be a fault with the associated
electrical system. If this is the case, you must follow the instructions in
your instrument cluster display before your vehicle will start.
If you cannot move the gearshift lever out of P (Park) with ignition on
and the brake pedal pressed, it is also possible that a fuse has blown or
the vehicle’s brake lamps are not operating properly. Refer toFuses and
relaysin theRoadside Emergencieschapter.
If your charge cord is not connected and there is not a fault with the
associated electrical system, the fuse is not blown and the brake lamps
are working properly, the following procedure will allow you to move the
gearshift lever from P (Park):
1. Apply the parking brake, turn the ignition key to the off position and
remove the key.
2. Using a screwdriver (or similar
tool), carefully pry off and remove
the passenger side access cover.
Remove the fastener, then remove
the console side panel to expose the
inside of the shifter assembly.
3. Locate the brake shift interlock lever on the passenger side of the
shifter assembly.

CLEANING THE INTERIOR
WARNING:Do not use cleaning solvents, bleach or dye on the
vehicle’s safety belts, as these actions may weaken the belt
webbing.
WARNING:On vehicles equipped with seat-mounted airbags, do
not use chemical solvents or strong detergents. Such products
could contaminate the side airbag system and affect performance of the
side airbag in a collision.
For fabric, carpets, cloth seats, safety belts and seats equipped with side
airbags:
•Remove dust and loose dirt with a vacuum cleaner.
•Apply a layer of high quality foam cleaner, designed for automotive
interiors, to the dry stained area (s) of the item you are cleaning and
allow soaking for one minute.
•If grease or tar is present on the material, spot-clean the area first
with Motorcraft Spot and Stain Remover. In Canada, use Motorcraft
Multi-Purpose Cleaner.
•If a ring forms on the fabric after spot cleaning, clean the entire area
immediately (but do not oversaturate) or the ring can set.
•Do not use household cleaning products or glass cleaners, which can
stain and discolor the fabric and affect the flame retardant abilities of
the seat materials.
CLEANING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND INSTRUMENT
CLUSTER LENS
WARNING:Do not use chemical solvents or strong detergents
when cleaning the steering wheel or instrument panel to avoid
contamination of the airbag system.
Clean the instrument panel and cluster lens with a clean, damp, white,
cotton cloth, then use a clean and dry, white, cotton cloth to dry these
areas.
•Avoid cleaners or polishes that increase the gloss of the upper portion
of the instrument panel. The dull finish in this area helps protect the
driver from undesirable windshield reflection.

•Be certain to wash or wipe your hands clean if you have been in
contact with certain products, such as insect repellent and suntan
lotion, in order to avoid possible damage to the interior painted
surfaces.
•Do not use household or glass cleaners as these may damage the
finish of the instrument panel, interior trim and cluster lens.
•Do not allow air fresheners and hand sanitizers to spill on interior
surfaces. If a spill occurs, wipe off immediately. Damage may not be
covered by your warranty.
If a staining liquid like coffee or juice has been spilled on the instrument
panel or on interior trim surfaces, clean as follows:
1. Wipe up spilled liquid using a clean, white, cotton cloth.
2.
Wipe the surface with a damp, clean, white, cotton cloth. For more
thorough cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution. If the spot cannot
be completely cleaned by this method, the area may be cleaned using a
commercially available cleaning product designed for automotive interiors.
3. If necessary, apply more soap and water solution or cleaning product
to a clean, white, cotton cloth and press the cloth onto the soiled area;
allow this to set at room temperature for 30 minutes.
4. Remove the soaked cloth, and if it is not soiled badly, use this cloth to
clean the area by using a rubbing motion for 60 seconds.
5. Following this, wipe area dry with a clean, white, cotton cloth.
CLEANING LEATHER SEATS (IF EQUIPPED)
•Remove dust and loose dirt with a vacuum cleaner.
•Clean spills and stains as quickly as possible.
•For routine cleaning, wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. For
more thorough cleaning, wipe the surface with a mild soap and water
solution. In Canada, use Motorcraft® Vinyl Cleaner. Dry the area with
a soft cloth.
•If the leather cannot be completely cleaned using a mild soap and
water solution, the leather may be cleaned using a commercially
available leather cleaning product designed for automotive interiors.
