Make sure there is adequate ventilation to control
dusts, mists and fumes.
High Pressure Air, Lubrication and Oil
Test Equipment
See alsoLubricants and Greases.
Always keep high-pressure equipment in good
condition, and regularly maintained, particularly at
joints and unions.
Never direct a high-pressure nozzle, for example
diesel injector, at the skin as the fluid may
penetrate to the underlying tissue, and cause
serious injury.

See CFCs.
Legal Aspects
There are many laws and regulations relating to
health and safety in the use and disposal of
materials and equipment in a workshop.
For a safe working environment and to avoid
environmental pollution, workshops should be
familiar, in detail, with the many health and safety
laws and regulations within their country, published
by both national and local authorities.
Lubricants and Greases
Avoid all prolonged and repeated contact with
mineral oils. All lubricants and greases may be
irritating to the eyes and skin.
Transmission Fluids
Safety instructions
Certain Transmission and Power Steering fluids
supplied to Ford may contain additives which have
the potential to cause skin disease (dermatitis) to
exposed persons. The dermatitis may be irritant
or allergic in nature. Risks are higher where
prolonged or repeated skin contact with a fluid may
occur. These fluids are used for vehicle initial fill
and service purposes. This sub-section is to: • Inform Service personnel who may come into
contact with these vehicle fluids (hazard
communication).
• Summarise appropriate workplace control measures and personal protective equipment
requirements.
• Draw attention to the existence of Material Safety Datasheets (MSDS's) for the fluids
(available from Ford Customer Service Division).
These MSDS's contain detailed information on
hazards and appropriate controls.
Control measures
Workplace risk assessments made under national
chemical control regulations should identify
operations involving the fluids as potentially
hazardous and specify workplace control and
worker awareness measures. In such
circumstances, the relevant Material Safety
Datasheet (see the details specified below) which
specifies hazards and control measures in detail
should be made available for guidance.
Avoid unprotected skin contact with the fluids, and
in particular, avoid prolonged or repeated skin
contact. Work practices should be organised so as
to minimise the potential for skin contact. This may
include the use of drip trays, absorbents, correct
fluid handling equipment (funnels etc), and
workplace housekeeping measures such as the
cleaning of contaminated surfaces.
Personnel engaged in operations where skin
contact could occur (such as fluid draining or filling)
should wear impervious gloves made from nitrile
rubber, certified to a chemical protection standard,
e.g. Europe Standard EN374. This glove type is
widely available from reputable suppliers of gloves
for chemical protection [including the manufacturers
Ansell-Admont (Solvex Range), North Safety
products (North Nitrile Latex Gloves range), and
Marigold Industrial (Blue Nitrile range)]. If gloves
become torn or contaminated on the inside they
should be replaced. Eye protection with safety
glasses is appropriate. Use of an impervious apron
and arm protectors may be necessary if more
extensive exposure is possible. Use of skin barrier
creams suitable for work with mineral oil products
may offer some supplementary protection, but such
barrier creams should not be used in place of
protective clothing.
If accidental skin contact occurs with the fluids,
wash the area thoroughly with soap or skin
cleanser and water.

Principles of Operation
The ultrasonic parking aid system activates when
the ignition switch is turned to the RUN and when
the parking brake is OFF. If a front parking aid
switch is fitted the system will be de-activated and
a light emitting diode (LED) will indicate the state
of the system. A lit LED will indicate that the system
is currently deactivated. The parking aid system
will be disabled if a fault is detected in one of the
four front parking aid sensors, the parking aid
speaker or the parking aid module. An error tone
approximately 3 seconds long will be emitted from
the rear parking aid speaker if a fault is detected.
If the rear parking aid speaker is inoperative the
error tone will sound from the front parking aid
speaker.

System Operation
Overview
NOTE: In order to prevent discharge of the battery,
if the vehicle is stationary, the Bluetooth mobile
phone and the voice control should only be used
for long periods when the engine is running.
NOTE: For certain mobile phones with the Symbian
operating system, a particular file must be installed
to allow full access to the telephone directory via
Bluetooth. This file is referred to as an SIS file and
can be downloaded from the Ford website. You
can obtain more detailed information from your
Ford dealer.
The system allows the driver to use a Bluetooth
equipped cellular phone handset through the
vehicles Information and Entertainment system.
A physical connection (adapter) between the phone
handset and the telephone control module is not
necessary and is therefore not available.
Communications between the two components are
purely Bluetooth. This can limit the available
functions dependant on the handset used.
The mobile phone system comprises the following
components:
• Control module for mobile electronic auxiliary equipment
• Microphone.
The control module for the mobile electronic
auxiliary equipment is connected to the
Infotainment system via the CAN bus and the audio
line. This enables audio and control signals to be
passed to and from the auxiliary equipment. The
mobile electronic auxiliary equipment control
module is equipped with a built-in Bluetooth
antenna.
Using Bluetooth it is possible to transfer audio files
from Bluetooth compatible storage media to the audio system and replay them (audio streaming).
This function will however only be available at a
later date.
Voice Control
Voice control makes it possible to operate the audio
system without the driver being distracted from the
traffic situation.
When the system is active, if the driver issues a
pre-defined order, the voice recognition system
converts this command into a control signal for the
various multimedia systems. The input can take
the form of dialogues or commands. The driver is
guided through the dialogues by announcements
or questions.
The following systems can be controlled using the
voice recognition system:
• Mobile phone
• Radio function
• CD player/CD changer
•
EATC (electronic automatic temperature control)
• DVD navigation system with touchscreen – Voice control via the mobile electronicauxiliary equipment control module is
unnecessary for the DVD navigation system
with touchscreen because this system has
its own integrated voice control function. G1055659en
