WHAT IS 911 ASSIST
911 Assist is a SYNC system feature thatcan call for help.
For more information, visitwww.owner.ford.com.
HOW DOES 911 ASSIST WORK
If a crash deploys an airbag, excluding kneeairbags and rear inflatable seatbelts, oractivates the fuel pump shut-off, yourvehicle may be able to contact emergencyservices by dialing 911 through a paired andconnected Bluetooth® enabled phone.
Not all crashes deploy an airbag or activatethe fuel pump shut-off. If a connected cellphone sustains damage or loses itsconnection to SYNC during a crash, SYNCsearches for and tries to connect to apreviously paired cell phone. SYNC thenattempts to call the emergency services.
Before making the call:
•SYNC provides about 10 seconds tocancel the call. If you fail to cancel thecall, SYNC attempts to dial 911.
•SYNC says the following, or a similarmessage: SYNC will attempt to call 911,to cancel the call, press Cancel on yourscreen or press and hold the phonebutton on your steering wheel.
If you do not cancel the call and SYNCmakes a successful call a pre-recordedmessage plays for the 911 operator. Theoccupants in your vehicle are able to talkwith the operator. Be prepared to provideyour name, phone number and locationimmediately because not all 911 systemsare capable of receiving this informationelectronically.
During an emergency call the systemtransmits vehicle data to the emergencyservice.
EMERGENCY CALL
REQUIREMENTS
WARNING: Do not wait for 911Assist to make an emergency call if youcan do it yourself. Dial emergencyservices immediately to avoid delayedresponse time which could increase therisk of serious injury or death after acrash. If you do not hear 911 Assist withinfive seconds of the crash, the system orphone may be damaged ornon-functional.
WARNING: Always place yourphone in a secure location in your vehicleso it does not become a projectile or getdamaged in a crash. Failure to do so maycause serious injury to someone ordamage the phone which could prevent911 Assist from working properly.
WARNING: Unless the 911 Assistsetting is set on before a crash, thesystem will not dial for help which coulddelay response time, potentiallyincreasing the risk of serious injury ordeath after a crash.
•SYNC is powered and working properlyat the time of the incident andthroughout feature activation and use.
•The 911 Assist feature must be set onbefore the incident.
•You must pair and connect aBluetooth® enabled and compatiblecell phone to SYNC.
•A connected Bluetooth® enabledphone must have the ability to makeand maintain an outgoing call at thetime of the incident.

FUEL QUALITY
SELECTING THE CORRECT FUEL -GASOLINE
Your vehicle operates on regular unleadedgasoline with a minimum pump (R+M)/2octane rating of 87.
Some fuel stations, particularly those inhigh altitude areas, offer fuels posted asregular unleaded gasoline with an octanerating below 87. The use of these fuelscould result in engine damage that will notbe covered by the vehicle Warranty.

•Follow the recommended servicemaintenance intervals. See GeneralMaintenance Information (page 594).
•Do not store biodiesel fuel in the fueltank for more than 1 month.
•Consider changing brands or reducingbiodiesel content if you have coldtemperature fuel gelling issues or afrequently appearing LOW FUELPRESSURE message.
Use of biodiesel in concentrations greaterthan 20% can cause damage to yourvehicle, including engine and/or exhaustafter-treatment hardware (exhaustcatalyst and particulate filter) failures.Concentrations greater than 20% can alsocause fuel filter restrictions that couldresult in a lack of power or damage to fuelsystem components, including fuel pumpand fuel injector failures.
We recommend SAE 5W-40 oil for fuelswith greater than 5% biodiesel (B5). Formore information about oil changeintervals and other maintenance whenoperating on biodiesel. See SpecialOperating Conditions ScheduledMaintenance (page 603).
Look for a label on the fuel pump toconfirm the amount of biodiesel containedin diesel fuel. Ask the service stationattendant to confirm the biodiesel contentof diesel fuel, if you do not see a label onthe fuel pump.
If you plan to park or store your vehicle formore than 1 month, then you should emptyyour vehicle fuel tank of biodiesel fuel. Youshould fill the tank with a purepetroleum-based diesel fuel and run yourvehicle for a minimum of 30 minutes.
Note:Degraded or oxidized biodiesel candamage fuel system seals and plastics andcorrode steel parts.
During cold weather, if you have problemsoperating on biodiesel, you may need touse diesel fuel with lower biodieselcontent, try another brand or discontinuethe use of biodiesel.
Diesel Fuel Additives
It should not be necessary to add anyaftermarket additives to your fuel if youuse a high-quality diesel fuel that conformsto ASTM industry specifications.Aftermarket additives can damage the fuelinjector system or engine.
Use Motorcraft® cetane booster or anequivalent cetane booster additive if yoususpect fuel has low cetane. UseMotorcraft® anti-gel and performanceimprover or an equivalent additive if thereis fuel gelling.
Do not use alcohol-based additives toimprove cetane quality, to prevent fuelgelling or any other use. The use of alcoholadditives could result in damage to the fuelinjectors and system.
Your Warranty may not cover repairsneeded to correct the effects of using anaftermarket product that does not meetour specifications in your fuel.

WARNING: Tampering with ordisabling the selective catalyticreduction system results in severevehicle performance limitation includingeventual speed limiting to 5 mph(8 km/h).
Note: Do not put diesel exhaust fluid in thefuel tank. Do not start the engine if anyamount of diesel exhaust fluid was addedto the diesel fuel tank as it will likely lead tofailure of the fuel pump and injectors andmay result in severe engine damage whichyour vehicle Warranty may not cover. Thediesel fuel tank must be completely drainedand cleaned prior to being refilled with cleandiesel fuel and starting the engine.
Selective catalytic reduction systems aresensitive to contamination of the dieselexhaust fluid. Maintaining the purity of thefluid is important to avoid systemmalfunctions. If you remove or drain thediesel exhaust fluid tank, do not use thesame fluid to refill the tank. The systemhas a sensor to monitor fluid quality.
Driving without refilling, replacingcontaminated diesel exhaust fluid, orhaving the selective catalytic reductionsystem repaired results in the followingactions as required by the California AirResources Board (CARB) and the U.S.Environmental Protection Agency (EPA):
•Within a preset distance to empty,speed is limited upon vehicle restart.Prior to this occurring a messageappears in the information display.
•Further vehicle operation withoutrefilling or replacing contaminateddiesel exhaust fluid causes the engineto enter an idle-only condition. Thisonly occurs upon vehicle refueling,vehicle idling in park for 1 hour, orengine shutdown for 10 minutes ormore and is indicated by a message inthe information display indicatingrequired actions to resume normaloperation. It is required to add aminimum of 1.0 gal (3.8 L) of dieselexhaust fluid to the tank to exit theidle-only condition, but your vehicle isstill in the speed-limiting mode untilyou refill the tank completely.
Note:For vehicle speed limiting or idle-onlycondition, normal vehicle operation resumeswhen you refill the diesel exhaust fluid tankor repair the contaminated system. If thesystem is contaminated or inoperative, haveyour vehicle checked as soon as possible.
