Never remove the coolant reservoir cap
while the engine is running or hot. Steam
and scalding liquid from a hot cooling system can
burn you badly.
This gauge indicates the temperature of the engine
coolant, not the coolant level. If the coolant is not at
its proper level the gauge indication will not be
accurate.
Engine oil pressure gauge
Indicates engine oil
pressure. At normal
operating temperature,
the needle will be in
the normal range (the area between the ªLº and
ªHº); if the needle goes below the normal range,
stop the vehicle as soon as safely possible and
switch off the engine immediately. Check the oil
level. Add oil if needed (refer toEngine oilin the
Maintenance and specificationschapter). If the oil
level is correct, have your vehicle checked at your
dealership or by a qualified technician.
Battery voltage gauge
Indicates battery
voltage. If the pointer
moves and stays
outside the normal
operating range (as indicated by the arrows), have
the vehicle's electrical system checked as soon as
possible.

Replacement of the battery willnotcause the
remote transmitter to become deprogrammed from
your vehicle. The remote transmitter should operate
normally after battery replacement.
Replacing lost transmitters
Take all your vehicle's
transmitters to your
dealer if service is
required.
If you purchase
additional transmitters
(up to four may be
programmed into
memory), perform the following procedure:
To reprogram the transmitters yourself, place the
key in the ignition and turn from LOCK to OFF and
cycle between OFF and ON eight times in rapid
succession (within 10 seconds) ending in ON. After
doors lock/unlock, press any control on all
transmitters (up to four). With each control press of
the transmitters, the door should cycle (lock/unlock)
to confirm programming. When completed, turn the
ignition to OFF. The door locks should cycle
(lock/unlock) one last time to confirm completion of
programming.
All transmittersmustbe programmed at the same
time.
Illuminated entry
The interior lamps illuminate when the remote entry
system is used to unlock the door(s) or sound the
personal alarm.
The system automatically turns off after 25 seconds
or when the ignition is turned to the START/RUN or
ACC position. The dome lamp control (if equipped)
mustnotbe set to the OFF position for the
illuminated entry system to operate.
Locks and Security

The inside lights will not turn off if:
²they have been turned on with the dimmer
control or
²any door is open
The battery saver will shut off the interior lamps 30
minutes after the ignition has been turned to the
OFF position, 10 minutes after if the door is left
open, and 30 minutes after if the trunk is left open
or the dome lamp switch is left on.
SECURILOCKYPASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
SecuriLockypassive anti-theft system is an engine
immobilization system. This system prevents the
engine from being started unless acoded key
programmed to your vehicleis used.
The SecuriLockypassive anti-theft system is not
compatible with non-Ford aftermarket remote start
systems. Use of these systems may result in vehicle
starting problems and a loss of security protection.
Automatic arming
The vehicle is armed
immediately after
switching the ignition
to the 3 (OFF)
position. The
THEFT
light in the instrument
cluster will flash every
two seconds when the
vehicle is armed.
Automatic disarming
Switching the ignition to the 4 (ON) position with a
coded keydisarms the vehicle. The
THEFTlight
will illuminate for three seconds and then go out. If
the
THEFTlight stays on for an extended period of
time or flashes rapidly, have the system serviced by
your dealership or a qualified technician.

Anti-theft lug nuts (if equipped)
If your vehicle is equipped with this feature, one of
the lug nuts on each wheel must be removed and
replaced with a special key. The key and registration
card are attached to the lug wrench and stored with
the spare tire. If you lose the key, send the
registration card to the manufacturer (not the
dealer) to get a replacement key. If the lug
wrench/lug nut key assembly is lost, see your
nearest Ford or Lincoln Mercury dealer who has
access to the master set of keys.Do not use an
impact wrench with the anti-theft key.
To remove the
anti-theft lug nut:
1. Insert the key over
the locking lug nut.
Make sure you hold the key square to the lug nut. If
you hold the key at an angle, you could damage the
key and the lug nut.
2. Place the lug nut wrench over the lug nut key and
apply pressure on the key with the wrench.
3. Turn the wrench in a counterclockwise direction
to remove the lug nut.
To install the anti-theft lug nut:
1. Insert the key over the locking lug nut.
2. Place the lug nut wrench over the lug nut key and
apply pressure on the key with the wrench.
3. Install the lug nut by turning the wrench
clockwise.
JUMP STARTING YOUR VEHICLE
The gases around the battery can explode if
exposed to flames, sparks, or lit cigarettes. An
explosion could result in injury or vehicle damage.
Batteries contain sulfuric acid which can
burn skin, eyes, and clothing, if contacted.
Roadside Emergencies
174

Do not attempt to push-start your vehicle.
Automatic transmissions do not have
push-start capability; also, the catalytic
conveter may become damaged.
Preparing your vehicle
When the battery is disconnected or a new battery is
installed, the transmission must relearn its adaptive
strategy. As a result of this, the transmission may
shift firmly. This operation is considered normal and
will not effect function or durability of the
transmission. Over time, the adaptive learning
process will fully update transmission operation to
its optimum shift feel.
1.
Use only a 12±volt supply to start your vehicle.
2.Do not disconnect the battery of the disabled vehicle
as this could damage the vehicle's electrical system.
3.Park the booster vehicle close to the hood of the
disabled vehicle making sure the two vehiclesdo not
touch. Set the parking brake on both vehicles and stay
clear of the engine cooling fan and other moving parts.
4. Check all battery terminals and remove any
excessive corrosion before you attach the battery
cables. Ensure the vent caps are tight and level.
5. Turn the heater fan on in both vehicles to protect
any electrical surges. Turn all other accessories off.
Connecting the jumper cables
1. Connect the positive (+) booster cable to the
positive (+) terminal of the discharged battery.
Note:In the illustrations,lightning boltsare used
to designate the assisting (boosting) battery.

2. Connect the other end of the positive (+) cable to
the positive (+) terminal of the assisting battery.
3. Connect the negative (-) cable to the negative (-)
terminal of the assisting battery.
4. Make the final connection of the negative (-)
cable to an exposed metal part of the stalled
vehicle's engine, away from the battery and the
carburetor/fuel injection system.Do notuse fuel
lines, engine rocker covers or the intake manifold as
groundingpoints.
