GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNINGS
Extended idling at high engine speeds
can produce very high temperatures in
the engine and exhaust system,
creating the risk of fire or other damage. Do not park, idle or drive your vehicle
on dry grass or other dry ground cover.
The emission system heats up the
engine compartment and exhaust system,
creating the risk of fire. Do not start the engine in a closed
garage or in other enclosed areas.
Exhaust fumes can be toxic. Always
open the garage door before you start the
engine. If you smell exhaust fumes inside your
vehicle, have your vehicle checked by
an authorized dealer immediately. Do
not drive your vehicle if you smell exhaust
fumes. If you disconnect the battery, your vehicle
may exhibit some unusual driving
characteristics for approximately 5 miles (8
kilometers) after you reconnect it. This is
because the engine management system
must realign itself with the engine. You can
disregard any unusual driving characteristics
during this period.
The powertrain control system meets all
Canadian interference-causing equipment
standard requirements regulating the impulse
electrical field or radio noise.
When you start the engine, avoid pressing
the accelerator pedal before and during
operation. Only use the accelerator pedal
when you have difficulty starting the engine.
KEYLESS STARTING
Note:
The keyless starting system may not
function if the key is close to metal objects or
electronic devices such as cellular phones.
Note: A valid key must be located inside your
vehicle to switch the ignition on and start the
engine. Note:
When locking your vehicle, any remote
controls left inside the vehicle may become
disabled. A message may appear in the
information display indicating that there is no
key detected if you try to start the engine.
Press the unlock button on the remote control
to enable it, and then start the engine.
Ignition Modes Off: Turns the ignition off.
• Without applying the brake pedal, press
and release the button once when the
ignition is in the on mode, or when the
engine is running but the vehicle is not
moving.

HAZARD WARNING FLASHERS
Note:
If used when the vehicle is not running,
the battery will lose charge. There may be
insufficient power to restart your vehicle. The hazard warning button is
located on the instrument panel.
Use it when your vehicle is creating
a safety hazard for other motorists.
• Press the button to turn on the hazard
warning function, and the front and rear
direction indicators will flash.
• Press the button again to turn them off.
FUEL SHUTOFF WARNING
Failure to inspect and, if necessary,
repair fuel leaks after a collision may
increase the risk of fire and serious
injury. Ford Motor Company recommends
that the fuel system be inspected by an
authorized dealer after any collision. In the event of a moderate to severe collision,
this vehicle includes a fuel pump shutoff
feature that stops the flow of fuel to the
engine. Not every impact will cause a shutoff.
Should your vehicle shut off after a collision,
you may restart your vehicle. For vehicles
equipped with a key system:
1. Switch off the ignition.
2. Switch on the ignition.
3.
Repeat Steps 1 and 2 to re-enable the fuel
pump.
For vehicles equipped with a push button
start system:
1. Press the START/STOP button to
switch off the ignition.
2. Press the brake pedal and press the START/STOP
button to start the
vehicle.
3. Remove your foot from the brake pedal and press the
START/STOP button to
switch off the ignition.
4. You can either attempt to start the engine
by pressing the brake pedal and the
START/STOP
button, or switch on the
ignition only by pressing the
START/STOP
button without pressing
the brake pedal. Both ways re-enable the
fuel system.

3. Remove the jumper cable from the
positive (+) terminal of the booster
vehicle's battery.
4. Remove the jumper cable from the positive (+) terminal of the disabled
vehicle's battery.
After the disabled vehicle has been started
and the jumper cables removed, allow it to
idle for several minutes so the battery can
recharge.
POST-CRASH ALERT SYSTEM
The system flashes the turn signal lamps and
sounds the horn (intermittently) in the event
of a serious impact that deploys an airbag
(front, side, side curtain or Safety Canopy)
or the safety belt pretensioners.
The horn and lamps will turn off when:
• You press the hazard control button.
• You press the panic button on the remote
entry transmitter (if equipped).
• Your vehicle runs out of power.
