CHANGING THE ENGINE AIR
FILTER
WARNING
To reduce the risk of vehicle damage
and personal burn injuries, do not
start your engine with the air cleaner
removed and do not remove it while the
engine is running. Only use the specified replacement air
filter. See Capacities and Specifications
(page 274).
Note: Failure to use the correct air filter
element may result in severe engine
damage. Resulting component damage
may not be covered by the vehicle Warranty.
Change the air filter element at the correct
interval. See

•
Install snow chains securely, make sure
they do not touch any wiring, brake
lines or fuel lines.
• S class or 15mm or less in dimension
as measured on the sidewall of the tire.
• Do not exceed 30 mph (48 km/h) or
the maximum speed recommended by
the chain manufacturer, whichever is
less.
• Purchase snow chains or cables from
a manufacturer that clearly labels the
body to tire dimension restrictions.
• Remove the cables when they are no
longer needed.
• Do not use snow chains on dry roads.
• If you have any questions regarding
snow chains or cables, see an
authorized dealer.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM (If Equipped) WARNING
The tire pressure monitoring system
is not a substitute for manually
checking tire pressure. The tire
pressure should be checked periodically
(at least monthly) using a tire gauge, see
Inflating your tires in this chapter. Failure
to properly maintain your tire pressure
could increase the risk of tire failure, loss
of control, vehicle rollover and personal
injury. Each tire, including the spare (if
provided), should be checked
monthly when cold and inflated
to the inflation pressure recommended by
the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If
your vehicle has tires of a different size
than the size indicated on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure label, you
should determine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle
has been equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) that
illuminates a low tire pressure telltale
when one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. Accordingly,
when the low tire pressure telltale
illuminates, you should stop and check
your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure. Driving on a
significantly under-inflated tire causes the
tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency
and tire tread life, and may affect the
vehicle ’s handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tire maintenance, and
it is the driver ’s responsibility to maintain
correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation
has not reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure
telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with
a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate
when the system is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is
combined with the low tire pressure
telltale. When the system detects a
malfunction, the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and then remain
continuously illuminated. This sequence
will continue upon subsequent vehicle
start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.

4. Fully tighten all of the lug nuts in the
sequence shown.
5. Install the wheel trim.
Note: Make sure that the cones on the lug
nuts are against the wheel.
Note: Alloy wheel lug nuts are suitable for
use on a steel spare wheel.
Note: If the spare wheel is not the same
type and size as your vehicle road wheel
replace it as soon as possible.
Note: Check the lug nuts for correct
tightness and check the tire pressure as
soon as possible.
Stowing the Wheel and Vehicle
Jack
Note: Do not raise the spare wheel bracket
without a wheel attached. Damage can
occur to the winch mechanism if the spare
wheel bracket is lowered without a wheel
attached. 1. Attach the spare wheel bracket to the
wheel using the retaining nut.
2. Slide the cable through the slot and attach the spare wheel bracket to the
winch.
3. Rotate the cable through 90 degrees and lower the cable end cover.
4. Insert the flat end of the lug wrench into the socket. Turn it clockwise until
you feel a strong resistance. Make sure
the wheel is secure.
5. Stow the vehicle jack, jack handle and lug wrench in their correct locations
and secure them with the straps.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Wheel Lug Nut Torque Specifications WARNING
When a wheel is installed, always remove any corrosion, dirt or foreign materials
present on the mounting surfaces of the wheel or the surface of the wheel hub,
brake drum or brake disc that contacts the wheel. Make sure that any fasteners
that attach the rotor to the hub are secured so they do not interfere with the mounting
surfaces of the wheel. Installing wheels without correct metal-to-metal contact at the
wheel mounting surfaces can cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to come off
while your vehicle is in motion, resulting in loss of control. Ib-ft (Nm)

* Torque specifications are for nut and bolt threads free of dirt and rust. Use only Ford
recommended replacement fasteners.
Retighten the lug nuts to the specified torque within 100 miles (160 kilometers) after any
wheel disturbance, for example tire rotation, changing a flat tire or wheel removal.
