REFUELLING
CAUTION
Do not attempt to start the engine if
you have filled the fuel tank with the
incorrect fuel. This could damage the
engine. Have the system checked by a
properly trained technician immediately. FUEL CONSUMPTION
The CO2 and fuel consumption figures
are derived from laboratory tests
according to EEC Directive 80/1268/EEC
and subsequent amendments and are
carried out by all vehicle manufacturers.
They are intended as a comparison
between makes and models of vehicles.
They are not intended to represent the
real world fuel consumption you may get
from your vehicle. Real world fuel
consumption is governed by many factors
including; driving style, high speed driving,
stop/start driving, air conditioning usage,
the accessories fitted and towing etc.
Your Ford dealer can give you advice on
improving your fuel consumption.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Electronic stability programme
(ESP)
WARNING
ESP does not relieve you of your
responsibility to drive with due care
and attention.
without ESP
A
with ESP
B
The ESP supports stability when the
vehicle starts to slide away from your
intended path. This is performed by
braking individual wheels and reducing
engine torque as needed.
The system also provides an enhanced
traction control function by reducing
engine torque if the wheels spin when you
accelerate. This improves your ability to
pull away on slippery roads or loose
surfaces, and improves comfort by limiting
wheel spin in hairpin bends. Stability control (ESP) warning lamp
The ESP warning lamp will flash when the
system is operating. See
Warning
lamps and indicators (page 64).
Emergency brake assist WARNING
Emergency brake assist does not
relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention.
Emergency brake assist will detect when
you brake heavily by measuring the rate
at which you press the brake pedal. It will
provide maximum braking efficiency as
long as you press the pedal. Emergency
brake assist can reduce stopping
distances in critical situations.
Trailer stability control
WARNINGS
Trailer stability control does not
relieve you of your responsibility to
tow with due care and attention.
Disabling ESP will turn off the
system.
Trailer stability control is an enhanced
feature of ESP, and automatically detects
when an attached trailer starts to sway.
If this situation occurs, the system will
automatically brake individual wheels to
stabilise the trailer and vehicle. In case a
very severe sway is detected, the engine
torque will be reduced and the vehicle will
be slowed automatically.
USING STABILITY CONTROL
Note:The system will be switched on
automatically every time you switch the ignition on.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNING
The parking aid does not relieve you
of your responsibility to drive with
due care and attention.
CAUTIONS
Vehicles fitted with a trailer tow
module not approved by us may not
correctly detect obstacles.
The sensors may not detect objects
in heavy rain or other conditions that
cause disruptive reflections.
The sensors may not detect objects
with surfaces that absorb ultrasonic
waves.
The parking aid does not detect
obstacles moving away from the
vehicle. They will only be detected
shortly after they start to move towards
the vehicle again. Take particular care when reversing
with a tow ball arm or rear fitted
accessories e.g. a bicycle carrier, as
the rear parking aid will only indicate the
distance from the bumper to the obstacle. If you use a high pressure spray to
wash your vehicle, only spray the
sensors briefly from a distance not
less than 20 centimetres (8 inches). Note:On vehicles fitted with a tow ball
arm, the parking aid is deactivated automatically when any trailer lamps (orlighting boards) are connected to the13-pin socket via a trailer tow module wehave approved.
Note:Keep the sensors free from dirt,
ice and snow. Do not clean with sharp objects.
Note:The parking aid may emit false
tones if it detects a signal using the same frequency as the sensors or if the vehicleis fully laden.
Note:The outer sensors may detect the
side walls of a garage. If the distance between the outer sensor and the sidewall remains constant for three seconds,the tone will switch off. As you continue,the inner sensors will detect rearwardobjects.
USING THE PARKING AID
Switching the parking aid on
and off
Note:
The parking aid switches off
automatically when you start the engine or when you exceed 16 km/h (10 mph).
Note:The front and rear sensors are
always activated or deactivated together.
The parking aid is per default off. To
switch the parking aid on, press the switch
in the instrument panel or select reverse
gear.
The light in the switch illuminates when
the parking aid is activated.
To turn it off, press the switch again.
Manoeuvring with the parking
aid 115
Parking aidE72902
Page 118 of 226

Note:If a high pitch warning tone sounds
for three seconds and the light in the switch is flashing, it indicates amalfunction. The system will be disabled.Have the system checked by properlytrained technicians.
You will hear an intermittent tone at a
distance of up to approximately 150
centimetres (59 inches) between the
obstacle and rear bumper, 80 centimetres
(31 inches) between the obstacle and
front bumper and 50 centimetres (20
inches) to the side. Decreasing the
distance accelerates the intermittent tone.
A continuous tone will start at a distance
of less than 30 centimetres (12 inches).
You will hear an alternating tone from the
front and rear if obstacles are closer than
30 centimetres (12 inches) to the front
and rear bumpers.

• after driving 50 kilometres (30 miles)
• at 1 000 kilometres (600 miles)
intervals. Installing the crossbars WARNING
Distribute the load evenly over the
loading area and keep the centre of
gravity as low as possible. Secure
the load well to prevent it from slipping.
Never place any loads directly onto the
roof surface. CAUTION
Remove the crossbars before
entering an automatic car wash.
