Have an authorized dealer check and change
the transmission fluid and filter at the correct
service interval. See Scheduled
Maintenance (page 451). Your transmission
does not consume fluid. However, the fluid
level should be checked if the transmission
is not working properly, (i.e., if the
transmission slips or shifts slowly) or if you
notice some sign of fluid leakage.
Do not use supplemental transmission fluid
additives, treatments or cleaning agents. The
use of these materials may affect
transmission operation and result in damage
to internal transmission components.
BRAKE FLUID CHECK
Fluid levels between the MIN and MAX lines
are within the normal operating range; there
is no need to add fluid. If the fluid levels are
outside of the normal operating range, the
performance of the system could be
compromised; seek service from your
authorized dealer immediately. POWER STEERING FLUID CHECK
Your vehicle is equipped with an electric
power steering (EPS) system. There is no
fluid reservoir to check or fill.
WASHER FLUID CHECK
WARNING
If you operate your vehicle in
temperatures below 40°F (5°C), use
washer fluid with antifreeze protection.
Failure to use washer fluid with antifreeze
protection in cold weather could result in
impaired windshield vision and increase the
risk of injury or accident. Note:
The front and rear washer systems
are supplied from the same reservoir.
Add fluid to fill the reservoir if the level is low.
Only use a washer fluid that meets Ford
specifications.
See Capacities and
Specifications (page 336). State or local regulations on volatile organic
compounds may restrict the use of methanol,
a common windshield washer antifreeze
additive. Washer fluids containing
non-methanol antifreeze agents should be
used only if they provide cold weather
protection without damaging the vehicle
’s
paint finish, wiper blades or washer system.
FUEL FILTER
Your vehicle is equipped with a lifetime fuel
filter that is integrated with the fuel tank.
Regular maintenance or replacement is not
needed.
CHANGING THE 12V BATTERY WARNINGS
Batteries normally produce explosive
gases which can cause personal injury.
Therefore, do not allow flames, sparks or
lighted substances to come near the battery.
When working near the battery, always shield
your face and protect your eyes. Always
provide proper ventilation.

Some other computer settings, like the clock
and radio station presets, are also maintained
in memory by power from the low voltage
battery. When a technician disconnects and
connects the low voltage battery, these
settings are erased.
Note:
Until you switch the ignition to the on
position, you will receive a message in your
information display stating that your vehicle
is not in park.
Complete the following procedure in order
to restore the settings:
1. With the vehicle at a complete stop, set the parking brake.
2. Shift the transmission into P.
3. Turn off all accessories.
4. Step on the brake pedal and start the vehicle. 5. Run the engine until it reaches normal
operating temperature. While the engine
is warming up, complete the following:
Reset the clock. See Audio System
(page 345). Reset the power windows
bounce-back feature. See Windows and
Mirrors (page 97). Reset the radio station
presets.
See Audio System (page 345).
6. Allow the engine to idle for at least one minute. If the engine turns off, step on
the accelerator to start the engine.
7. While the engine is running, step on the brake pedal and shift the transmission to
N.
8. Allow the engine to run for at least one minute by pressing on the accelerator
pedal.
9. Drive your vehicle at least 10 miles (16 kilometers) to completely relearn the idle
and fuel trim strategy.
Note: Certain features may not operate if
the Battery Monitor System is not reset with
a scan tool following a jump start or battery
replacement. Normal electrical accessory
operation should resume after your vehicle
is left undisturbed for 8 hours. Note:
If you do not allow the engine to
relearn the idle and fuel trim strategy, the
idle quality of your vehicle may be adversely
affected until the engine computer
eventually relearns the idle trim and fuel trim
strategy.
Note: Always dispose of automotive
batteries in a responsible manner. Follow
your local authorized standards for disposal.
Call your local authorized recycling center
to find out more about recycling automotive
batteries.
Note: It is recommended that the negative
battery cable terminal be disconnected from
the battery if you plan to store your vehicle
for an extended period of time.

•
Wet weather driving capability.
• All-wheel driving capability
When driving with the full-size dissimilar
spare wheel and tire assembly additional
caution should be given to:
• Towing a trailer.
• Driving vehicles equipped with a camper
body.
• Driving vehicles with a load on the cargo
rack.
Drive cautiously when using a full-size
dissimilar spare wheel and tire assembly and
seek service as soon as possible.
Tire Change Procedure WARNINGS
When one of the front wheels is off the
ground, the transmission alone will not
prevent your vehicle from moving or slipping
off the jack, even if your vehicle is in park
(P). WARNINGS
To help prevent your vehicle from
moving when you change a tire, be
sure the parking brake is set, then block (in
both directions) the wheel that is diagonally
opposite (other side and end of your vehicle)
to the tire being changed. If your vehicle slips off the jack, you or
someone else could be seriously
injured. Do not attempt to change a tire on the
side of the vehicle close to moving
traffic. Pull far enough off the road to avoid
the danger of being hit when operating the
jack or changing the wheel. To lessen the risk of personal injury,
do not put any part of your body under
your vehicle while changing a tire. Do not
start the engine when your vehicle is on the
jack. The jack is only meant for changing the
tire. Note:
Passengers should not remain in your
vehicle when the vehicle is being jacked. 1. Park on a level surface, set the parking
brake and activate the hazard flashers.
2. Place the transmission in park (P) and
turn the engine off.
3. Remove the carpeted wheel cover.
4. Remove the wing nut that secures the spare tire by turning it counterclockwise. 5. Remove the jack from the foam holder.
The lug wrench is located in the left side
storage foam next to the spare tire.
Remove the flat tire retainer strap from
the jack base.

Ford recommends using Motorcraft (Ford) DOT 4 LV High Performance Brake Fluid or equivalent meeting WSS-M6C65-A2. Use of any fluid
other than the recommended fluid may cause degraded brake performance and not meet the Ford performance standards. Keep brake fluid
clean and dry. Contamination with dirt, water, petroleum products or other materials may result in brake system damage and possible failure.
2 Approximate dry fill capacity. Actual amount may vary during fluid changes.
3 Automatic transmissions that require Motorcraft MERCON LV transmission fluid should only use Motorcraft MERCON LV transmission fluid.
Use of any fluid other than the recommended fluid may cause transmission\
damage.
Change the automatic transmission fluid at the correct service interval.\
See Scheduled Maintenance (page 451).
4 See your authorized dealer for fluid level checking or filling.
5 Use of synthetic or synthetic blend motor oil is not mandatary. Your engine has been designed to use Motorcraft engine oils or equivalent\
oils that meet Ford’ s oil specification. It is also acceptable to use an engine oil of recom\
mended viscosity grade that meets API SN requirements
and displays the API Certification Mark for gasoline engines.
6 Do not use oils labeled as API SN unless the label also displays the API\
certification mark. These oils do not meet the requirements of your
vehicle's engine and emissions system.
7 Do not use supplemental engine oil additives. They are unnecessary and c\
ould lead to engine damage that is not covered by Ford’ s warranty.
8 Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.
9 See the Warning below: WARNING
The air conditioning refrigerant system contains refrigerant R-134a unde\
r high pressure. Opening the air conditioning refrigerant system
can cause personal injury. Have the air conditioning refrigerant system serviced only by qualifie\
d personnel.

for use with headphones. Your audio
extension cable must have male 1/8th-inch
(3.5 millimeter) connectors at each end.
1.
Switch off the engine, radio and portable
music player. Set the parking brake and
put the transmission in position P.
2. Plug the extension cable from the portable music player into the auxiliary
input jack. 3.
Switch the radio on. Select either a tuned
FM station or a CD.
4. Adjust the volume as desired.
5. Switch your portable music player on and
adjust its volume to half its maximum
level.
