SWITCH the wiper switch to the "intermittent""
position to test the output signals. PRESSING the
heated rear window switch activates the output
signals in the following order:
a.
Left-hand turn signal
b. Right-hand turn signal
c. Main beam
d. Dipped beam
e. Windshield wiper stage I
f. Windshield wiper stage II
g. Heated rear windshield
h. Heater blower motor
i. Headlamp washer system (vehicles with HID headlamps)
j. Electric booster heater (if fitted)
k. Autolamps (position lamps only if fitted)
l. Alarm horn (vehicles with alarm system)
m. Rear window wiper
n. Heated front window relay
When the heated rear window switch is pressed
again, the test of the relevant signal is terminated.
When the heated rear window switch is pressed
once more, the test for the next signal in the list is
started.
End service mode
The GEM automatically ends service mode 20
seconds after the last input or at a driving speed
of over 7km/h. However, service mode can be
manually ended at any time by proceeding as
follows:
• PRESS and HOLD the switch of the heated rear
window
• SWITCH OFF the ignition.
• RELEASE the switch of the heated rear window
3 signals sound and the turn signal lamps illuminate
to indicate that service mode has ended.
Reset service mode
If, after completion of service mode, some functions
do not operate or do not operate properly, check
the following functions:
• Instrument cluster illumination, side marker lamps (side lights) and licence plate lamp in
automatic headlamps mode
• Rear wiper
• Headlamp washer assembly
• Electric booster heater • Alarm horn
• Heated windshield
If one or more of the listed functions is not OK, it's
possible that the cause of the fault is due to not
exiting service mode properly. To reactivate the
functions correctly, perform the following steps:
1. Switch off the ignition.
2. SWITCH OFF the switch for the windscreen
wash/wipe system
3. OPERATE the switch of the heated rear window
and HOLD IT THERE
4. SWITCH ON the ignition.
5. RELEASE the heated rear window switch (an acoustic signal will sound if activation has been
performed correctly)
6. SWITCH the windscreen wash/wipe switch to the "Intermittent wipe" position
7. OPERATE the heated rear window switch 6 times (the main beam headlamps switch on and
off automatically)
8. SWITCH OFF the switch for the windscreen wash/wipe system
9. OPERATE the switch of the heated rear window
and HOLD IT THERE
10. Switch off the ignition.
11. RELEASE the heated rear window switch (three
acoustic signals will sound if activation has been
performed correctly)
After completion of the work, check all the
functions.

(*) Also available as tires with run-flat capabilities.
Use of snow chains
Snow chains are only approved for use with size
235/60R16 tires.
Fine chains with a link thickness of 10mm may be
used at speeds of up to 50 km/h (please refer to
the manufacturer's instructions).
Coarser chains with a link thickness of 11 to 14
mm may be used at speeds of up to 40 km/h
(please refer to the manufacturer's instructions).
Tire repair kit
If the tires used do not have run-flat properties then
the vehicle will be equipped with a tire repair kit.
A tire repair kit is located in the spare wheel well
in the luggage compartment.
The tire repair kit consists of:
• a compressor with a pressure gauge,
• a lead for voltage supply via the cigar lighter,
• an air hose,
• tire sealant.
A tire filled with tire sealant must be replaced with
a new tire after 200 km at the latest. Read and
observe the instructions regarding the tire low
pressure sensors (see lesson 4 – Tire pressure
monitoring system).
Instructions on handling and using the tire repair
kit can be found in a separate operating manual
that is enclosed with the tire repair kit.

In addition to the standard tires, run-flattires are
also optionally available. These tires have a
reinforced sidewall and provide the advantage that
the tire maintains its shape to a large extent even
in the event of insufficient tire pressure. This
ensures that the vehicle handling remains stable.
Advantage:
• These tires maintain their shape to a large extent, even in the event of insufficient tire
pressure. This ensures that the vehicle handling
remains stable.
Special wheel rims (EH2) and a tire pressure
monitoring system are needed for run-flat tires.
Standard tires can also be installed on the EH2
(EH = Extended Hump) wheel rims. Tires with
run-flat properties have the same size code and
the same appearance as standard tires.
With some tires, the code RFfor run-flat is included
in the tire designation, e.g. 205/55 RF16. Tires with run-flat properties have various different
codes on the sidewall, depending on the
manufacturer.
• The RFT logo
• "RUNFLAT" as an additional designation
• The additional designation "RSC" (RSC =
Runflat System Component)
• The additional designation "SSR" (SSR = Self
S upporting Run-Flat-Tire)
• The additional designation "SST" (SST = Self
S upporting Run-Flat- Tire)
WARNING: If a tire with run-flat properties
is used without air then the vehicle speed
must not exceed 80 km/h and the vehicle
must not be driven for distances in excess
of 80 km.
Note: Vehicles equipped at the factory with run-flat
tires do not feature a tire repair kit or a spare wheel.

FORD KUGA 2011.0MY WORKSHOP REPAIR MANUAL

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) – Overview
Description of operation
The tire pressure monitoring system is able to
detect loss of air in a tire at an early stage and warn
the driver. Because it can only compare the
behavior of the tires with each other, it is not
possible to draw conclusions about the absolute
tire pressure. It is also not possible to monitor the
spare tire pressure. In order for the system to
operate correctly, the tire pressures must be
regularly checked and corrected and the system
subsequently initialized (see below).
The tire pressure monitoring system used here,
depending on the equipment level, is built into the
anti-lock braking system (ABS) as an extra function
and therefore does not have its own sensors.
The ABS module determines the loss of pressure
in the tires by calculation using the wheel speed
sensors of the ABS system. If a tire loses pressure,
its diameter decreases and the speed of the wheel
therefore increases. If the ABS module detects
such a loss in pressure, it sends a signal to the
instrument cluster via the CAN bus and a warning
message is displayed in the driver information
system. The warning threshold depends among
other things on the dimension of the tires being
used, the vehicle operating conditions and the
status at the last initialization. Since neither the
absolute tire pressure nor the position of the tire is
known, after a tire pressure warning the pressure
of all the tires must be checked and the system
re-initialized. If necessary, the cause of the loss of
pressure must be investigated.
Furthermore, regular pressure checks are
necessary. The system must be initialized after a
tire is changed, winter or summer tires fitted, the
pressures corrected or adjusted to suit the vehicle
load. This can be done by the driver using the
driver information system. For further information,
see: Owner’s Manual.

Wheels and Tires
Inspection and Verification
Visual Inspection Chart
MechanicalWheel(s)Tire(s)
Tire pressure(s) * Wheel nuts
Wheel studs
* Vehicles equipped with a tire deflation detection system (DDS) must be inspected for correct operation using the Ford approved diagnostic tool.
To maximize tire performance, inspect the tires for
signs of incorrect inflation and uneven wear which
may indicate a need for balancing, rotation or
suspension alignment. Tires should also be
checked frequently for cuts, stone bruises,
abrasions, blisters and for objects that may have
become embedded in the tread. More frequent
inspections are recommended when rapid or
extreme temperature changes occur or when road
surfaces are rough or occasionally littered with
foreign material.
As a further visible check of tire condition, tread
wear indicators are molded into the bottom of the
tread grooves. When these indicator bands become
visible, new tires must be installed.
Tire Wear Diagnosis
Uneven wear is usually caused by either excessive
camber or excessive toe on tires.
Sometimes incorrect toe settings or worn struts will
cause severe `cupping' or `scalloped' tire wear on
non-driven wheels.
Severely incorrect toe settings will also cause other
unusual wear patterns.
Tire Vibration Diagnosis
A tire vibration diagnostic procedure always begins
with a road test. The road test and customer
interview (if available) will provide much of the
information needed to find the source of a vibration. During the road test, drive the vehicle on a road
that is smooth and free of undulations. If vibration
is apparent, note and record the following:
– the speed at which the vibration occurs.
– what type of vibration occurs in each speed
range.
– mechanical or audible
– how the vibration is affected by changes in the following:
– engine torque
– vehicle speed
– engine speed
– type of vibration - sensitivity: – torque sensitive
– vehicle speed sensitive
– engine speed sensitive
The following explanations help isolate the source
of the vibration.
Torque Sensitive
This means that the condition can be improved or
made worse by accelerating, decelerating,
coasting, maintaining a steady vehicle speed or
applying engine torque.
Vehicle Speed Sensitive
This means that the vibration always occurs at the
same vehicle speed and is not affected by engine
torque, engine speed or the transmission gear
selected.

BACK TO CHAPTER INDEX
FORD KUGA 2011.0MY WORKSHOP REPAIR MANUAL

Engine Speed Sensitive
This means that the vibration occurs at varying
vehicle speeds when a different transmission gear
is selected. It can sometimes be isolated by
increasing or decreasing engine speed with the
transmission in NEUTRAL or by stall testing with
the transmission in gear. If the condition is engine
speed sensitive, the cause is probably not related
to the tires.
If the road test indicates that there is tire whine,
but no shake or vibration, the noise originates with
the contact between the tire and the road surface.A thumping noise usually means that the tire is flat
or has soft spots making a noise as they slap the
roadway. Tire whine can be distinguished from axle
noise. Tire whine remains the same over a range
of speeds.
A complete road test procedure is described in
Section 100-04.
REFER to:
Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH)
(100-04 Noise, Vibration and Harshness,
Diagnosis and Testing).
