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 (such as tire rotation, changing
a flat tire, wheel removal).

We recommend Motorcraft replacement
parts available at your Ford dealer or at
fordparts.com for scheduled maintenance.
These parts meet or exceed Ford Motor
Company ’s specifications and are engineered
for your vehicle. Use of other parts may
impact vehicle performance, emissions and
durability. Your warranty may be void for any
damage related to use of other parts.
If a Motorcraft oil filter is not available, use
an oil filter that meets industry performance
specification SAE/USCAR-36. For spark plug replacement, contact an
authorized dealer. Replace the spark plugs
at the appropriate intervals. See Scheduled
Maintenance (page 392).

1 Ford recommends using DOT 4 Low Viscosity (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 Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.
3 Contact an authorized dealer for fluid level checking or filling.
4 Make sure the correct automatic transmission fluid is used. Transmission fluid requirements are indicated on the dipstick blade or the dipstick
handle. Before adding, check the container to verify the fluid is of the correct type. Refer to your scheduled maintenance information to
determine the correct service interval.
Note: Automatic transmissions that require MERCON LV should only use MERCON LV fluid. Use of any fluid other than the recommended fluid
may cause transmission damage.
5 Indicates only approximate dry-fill capacity. Some applications may vary based on cooler size and if equipped with an in-tank cooler. Use the
indication on the dipstick, showing the normal operating range, to determine the amount of transmission fluid and the fluid level.
Use of synthetic or synthetic blend motor oil is not mandatory. Only use fluid that meets Ford specifications. Motor oils of the recommended
viscosity grade that meet API SN requirements and display the API Certification Mark for gasoline engines are also acceptable. Do not use oil
labeled with API SN service category unless the label also displays the API certification mark.
Do not use supplemental engine oil additives because they are unnecessary and could lead to engine damage that may not be covered by
your vehicle warranty.
An oil that displays this symbol conforms to current engine, emission system and fuel economy performance standards of the International
Lubricant Standardization and Approval Committee (ILSAC):
