TIRE AND T OOL S
Your vehicle is equi\upped with a
temporary spare ti\ure. The spare
tire and jack are \ulocated under
the carpeted floor \upanel in the
rear of the vehicl\ue. (Your vehicle
is equipped with a \uthird row seat
that is stowed in t\uhe floor, you will
need to unstow the \useat in order
to access the tire\u and jack.) The
tire is desi\fned fo\ur emer\fency use
only and should \be \ureplaced as
soon as possi\ble. If your vehicle is \uequipped with
a towin\f packa\fe, yo\uu will also
have a Temporary Mobility \sKit.
It is recommended \uthat vehicles
with towin\f packa\fes\u use the
temporary mo\bility \ukit instead of
the spare. The temp\uorary mo\bility
kit is located unde\ur the driver’s
seat. To remove the mo\bili\uty
kit, move the driv\uer’s seat fully
forward and undo th\ue Velcro
®
strap that attache\us it to the rear
of the seat frame.\u The kit contains
an air compressor \uto reinflate the
tire and a sealin\f \ucompound that
will seal most punc\utures caused \by nails or similar\u o\bjects. Do not
attempt to repair \ular\fe punctures
or dama\fe to the ti\ure’s sidewall.
The mo\bility kit pr\uovides a
temporary seal all\uowin\f you
to drive up to 120 \umiles (200 km)
at a maximum speed \uof 50 mph
(80 km/h). After s\uealant use, the
TPMS sensor and valv\ue stem on
the wheel must \be re\uplaced \by
an authorized Ford \udealer.
Note: The sealant in the\u canister
is to \be used for o\une tire only.
See your authorized \udealer for

fUEL SYSTEM
With this system, \uyou simply press
open the fuel filler\u door, insert the
nozzle and \be\fin fuelin\f. Wait five
seconds from the time the\u refuelin\f
nozzle is shut-off \uuntil the nozzle
is pulled \back out o\uf the fill pipe
to allow residual f\uuel in the nozzle
to drain into the \utank. It is self-
sealin\f and therefo\ure protected
a\fainst dust, dirt,\u water, snow
and ice. To use a porta\ble fue\ul
container, slowly insert the\u fuel
funnel (located in \uthe spare tire
compartment), and \upour the fuel
into the funnel. Wh\uen done, clean
the funnel or prope\urly dispose of
it. Extra funnels c\uan \be purchased
from your authorize\ud dealer. Do not
use aftermarket fun\unels as they
will not work with t\uhe Easy Fuel™
system and may caus\ue dama\fe.

f
UEL TANK
C APACIT Y/ fUEL IN fO
Your vehicle has a f\uuel tank
capacity of 18.6 \fa\ullons (70.4L).
Your vehicle will run\u normally on
87 octane re\fular f\uuel. Premium
fuel will provide i\umproved
performance. Do no\ut use E85
fuels \because your v\uehicle was
not desi\fned to run\u on fuels with
more than 10% etha\unol.
If you have a 3.5L \uV6 EcoBoost™
en\fine, your vehicl\ue is desi\fned
to run on re\fular fu\uel with an
octane ratin\f of 87\u or hi\fher.
For \best overall pe\urformance,
premium fuel with an octane ratin\f
of 91 or hi\fher is \urecommended.
The performance \fai\uned \by
usin\f premium fuel wi\ull \be most
noticea\ble in hot w\ueather or in
severe duty applica\utions such as
towin\f a trailer. Some stations
offer fuels posted \uas ‘Re\fular’
with an octane rati\un\f \below 87,
particularly in hi\f\uh altitude areas.
Fuels with octane l\uevels \below 87
are not recommende\ud for either
en\fine. Do not \be c\uoncerned if
your en\fine sometim\ues knocks
li\fhtly. However, if it knocks
heavily while you a\ure usin\f
fuel with the recom\umended octane
ratin\f, see your aut\uhorized dealer
to prevent any en\fi\une dama\fe.
