Ford Motor Company produces a towing manual for all authorized tow
truck operators. Have your tow truck operator refer to this manual for
proper hook-up and towing procedures for your vehicle.
Front-wheel drive (FWD) vehicles can be towed from the front if proper
wheel lift equipment is used to raise the front wheels off the ground. The
rear wheels can be left on the ground when towed in this fashion.
FWD vehicles can also be towed from the rear using wheel lift
equipment; however, the front wheels must be placed on a dolly to
prevent damage to the transmission.
All-wheel drive (AWD) vehicles must be towed with a wheel lift and
dollies or flatbed equipment, with all the wheels off the ground, to
prevent damage to the transmission, AWD system or vehicle.
TOWING THE VEHICLE ON FOUR WHEELS
Emergency Towing
In the event your vehicle becomes disabled (without access to wheel
dollies, car-hauling trailer, or flatbed transport vehicle), it can be
flat-towed (all wheels on the ground, regardless of the
powertrain/transmission configuration) under the following conditions:
•The vehicle is facing forward so that it is towed in a forward direction.
•The transmission is placed in N (Neutral). Refer toAutomatic
transmissionin theTransmissionchapter if you cannot move the
transmission into N (Neutral).
•Maximum speed is 35 mph (56 km/h).
•Maximum distance is 50 miles (80 kilometers).
Recreational Towing
Note:Put your climate control system in recirculated air mode to
prevent exhaust fumes from entering the vehicle. Refer to theClimate
Controlchapter.
Follow these guidelines for your specific powertrain combination to tow
your vehicle for personal travel (such as behind a motor home or a
truck). These guidelines are designed to prevent damage to your vehicle
after it is hooked-up to the RV or tow dolly.
Front-wheel drive (FWD) vehicles can be towed with all four wheels on
the ground or with the front wheels off the ground by using a tow dolly.
If you are using a tow dolly follow the instructions specified by the
equipment provider. If you are towing with all four wheels on the ground,
refer to the towing instructions found at the end of this section.

TIRE CARE
Information About Uniform Tire Quality Grading
Tire Quality Grades apply to new
pneumatic passenger car tires. The
Quality grades can be found where
applicable on the tire sidewall between
tread shoulder and maximum section
width. For example:
•Treadwear 200 Traction AA Temperature A
These Tire Quality Grades are determined by standards that the United
States Department of Transportation has set.
Tire Quality Grades apply to new pneumatic passenger car tires. They do
not apply to deep tread, winter-type snow tires, space-saver or temporary
use spare tires, light truck or “LT” type tires, tires with nominal rim
diameters of 10 to 12 inches or limited production tires as defined in
Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations Part 575.104(c)(2).
U.S. Department of Transportation-Tire quality grades:The U.S.
Department of Transportation requires Ford Motor Company to give you
the following information about tire grades exactly as the government
has written it.
Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of
the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified
government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one
and one-half (1
1 2) times as well on the government course as a tire
graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual
conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the
norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices, and
differences in road characteristics and climate.
Traction AA A B C
WARNING:The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on
straight-ahead braking traction tests, and does not include
acceleration, cornering, hydroplaning or peak traction characteristics.
The traction grades, from highest to lowest are AA, A, B, and C. The
grades represent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement as measured

INTRODUCTION
WARNING:Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle
control, accident and injury. Ford strongly recommends that
drivers use extreme caution when using any device or feature that may
take their focus off the road. Your primary responsibility is the safe
operation of the vehicle. We recommend against the use of any
handheld device while driving, encourage the use of voice-operated
systems when possible and that you become aware of applicable state
and local laws that may affect use of electronic devices while driving.
Note:Some features are not available while the vehicle is moving.
This system uses a four-corner strategy to provide quick access to
vehicle features and settings. The comprehensive touchscreen provides
easy interaction with your cellular phone, multimedia, climate control
and navigation system. The corners display any active modes within
those menus, such as your phone being connected or the climate
temperature.

Press to access your home screen.
Depending on your vehicle’s option package and software, your
screens may vary in appearance from the screens shown in this
section. Your features may also be limited depending on your market.
Check with your authorized dealer for availability.
Customizing Your Home Screen
Press the house icon to access the home screen.
Using the Touch-Sensitive Controls on Your System
Your vehicle’s centerstack has touch-sensitive switches for your
infotainment and climate control systems. To turn a feature on and off,
just touch the graphic with your finger. To get the best performance from
the touch-sensitive controls, keep in mind:
•Do not press hard on the controls. They are sensitive to light touch.
•Use your bare finger to touch the center of a touch-control graphic.
Touching off-center of the graphic may cause a nearby control to turn
on or off.
•Make sure your hands are clean and dry.
•Since the touchscreen operates based on the touch of a finger, you
may have trouble using it if you are wearing gloves.
•Metal and other conductive material should be kept away from the
surface of the touchscreen as this may cause electronic interference
(i.e. control activation).
Depending on your vehicle and option package, you may also have these
controls on your bezel:
•Power: Turn the media (or climate features) on or off.
•VOL and fan slider bars: Slide your finger over the rear slider area to
increase or decrease the volume or fan levels.
•Seek and Tune buttons: Use as you normally would in media modes.
•Eject: Eject a CD.
•SOURCE: Touch the word repeatedly to see all available media modes.
The screen does not change, but you see the media changes in the
lower left status bar.

Navigation
Climate
You can make selections from the menu by using the OK button or
touching the screen. If you make a selection by touching the screen, the
selection menu expands and you are allowed different options.
•Press the up and down arrows to scroll through the modes.
•Press the right arrow to enter the mode.
•Press the left or right arrows to make adjustments within the chosen
mode.
•Press OK to confirm your selection.
Note:If your vehicle is not equipped with navigation, Compass appears
in the display instead of Navigation. If you press the right arrow to go
into the Compass menu, you can see the compass graphic. The compass
displays the direction in which the vehicle is traveling, not “true”
direction (i.e. if the vehicle is traveling west, the middle of the compass
graphic displays west; north displays to the left of west though its “true”
direction is to the right of west.)
USING YOUR VOICE RECOGNITION SYSTEM
This system helps you control many features using voice commands. This
allows you to keep your hands on the wheel and focus on what is in front
of you. The system provides feedback through audible tones, prompts,
questions and spoken confirmations depending on the situation and the
chosen level of interaction (voice settings).
The system also asks short questions (confirmation prompts) when it is
not sure of your request or when there are multiple possible responses to
your request.
When using voice commands, words and icons may also appear in the
lower left status bar indicating the status of the voice session (i.e.,
listening, success, failed, paused or try again).
