GENERAL INFORMATION
Have your vehicle serviced regularly
to help maintain its roadworthiness
and resale value. There is a large
network of Ford authorized dealers
that are there to help you with their
professional servicing expertise. We
believe that their specially trained
technicians are best qualified to
service your vehicle properly and
expertly. They are supported by a wide
range of highly specialized tools
developed specifically for servicing
your vehicle.
To help you service your vehicle, we
provide scheduled maintenance
information which makes tracking
routine service easy. See Scheduled
Maintenance (page 440).
If your vehicle requires professional
service, your authorized dealer can
provide the necessary parts and
service. Check your warranty
information to find out which parts
and services are covered.
Use only recommended fuels,
lubricants, fluids and service parts
conforming to specifications.
Motorcraft® parts are designed and
built to provide the best performance
in your vehicle.
Precautions
• Do not work on a hot engine.
• Make sure that nothing gets
caught in moving parts. •
Do not work on a vehicle with the
engine running in an enclosed
space, unless you are sure you
have enough ventilation.
• Keep all open flames and other
burning material (such as
cigarettes) away from the battery
and all fuel related parts.
Working with the Engine Off
1. Set the parking brake and shift to P (Park).
2. Turn off the engine and remove the
key (if equipped).
3. Block the wheels.
Working with the Engine On WARNING
To reduce the risk of vehicle
damage and/or personal burn
injuries, do not start your engine with
the air cleaner removed and do not
remove it while the engine is running. 1. Set the parking brake and shift to
P (Park).
2. Block the wheels
263
Maintenance

Note:
Automatic transmission fluid
expands when warmed. To obtain an
accurate fluid check, drive the vehicle
until it is warmed up (approximately
20 miles [30 kilometers]). If your
vehicle has been operated for an
extended period at high speeds, in city
traffic during hot weather or pulling a
trailer, the vehicle should be turned off
until normal operating temperatures
are reached to allow the fluid to cool
before checking. Depending on vehicle
use, cooling times could take up to 30
minutes or longer.
Refer to your scheduled maintenance
information for scheduled intervals
for fluid checks and changes. Your
transmission does not consume fluid.
However, the fluid level should be
checked if the transmission is not
working properly. For example, if the
transmission slips or shifts slowly or
if you notice some sign of fluid
leakage.
1. Drive the vehicle 20 miles (30 kilometers) or until it reaches
normal operating temperature
2. Park the vehicle on a level surface and engage the parking brake.
3. With the parking brake engaged and your foot on the brake pedal,
start the engine and move the
gearshift lever through all of the
gear ranges. Allow a minimum of
10 seconds for each gear to
engage.
4. Put the gearshift lever in P (Park)
and leave the engine running. Note:
You will need to move the air
filter assembly to access the
transmission dipstick.
5. Remove the dipstick, wiping it clean with a clean, dry lint free rag.
If necessary, refer to Under hood
overview in this chapter for the
location of the dipstick.
6. Install the dipstick making sure it
is fully seated in the filler tube by
turning it to the locked position.
7. Remove the dipstick and inspect the fluid level. The fluid should be
in the designated areas for normal
operating temperature.
Moving the Air Filter Assembly
(Accessing the Dipstick) WARNING
Do not run engine with the air
filter disconnected.
273
Maintenance

1. Shut the engine off.
2. Clean the area around the clamp
that connects the air filter
assembly to the rubber hose (A). 3. Remove the bolt cover (if
equipped). 4. Remove two bolts that attach the
air filter assembly to the front of
the vehicle (B).
5. Loosen the clamp holding the air filter assembly to the rubber hose
(A).
6. Remove the harness retaining clip
by pulling up (C). Do not
disconnect the sensor (D).
7. Without disconnecting the sensor (D), pull the air filter assembly up
to disconnect the air filter
assembly from the seated
grommets located underneath the
air filter assembly. 8.
Rotate the air filter assembly 90
degrees counterclockwise and
reinstall into the rubber hose.
9. Tighten the clamp (A).
10. The transmission fluid level indicator can now be accessed.

BCD E158840 E158841

Before adding any fluid, make sure the
correct type is used. The type of fluid
used is normally indicated on the
dipstick and also in the Technical
Specifications section in this chapter.
Note:
An overfill condition of
transmission fluid may cause shift or
engagement concerns or possible
damage.
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. Reinstall
the air filter assembly. After the fluid
level has been checked and adjusted
as necessary, do the following:
1. Shut the engine off.
2. Loosen the clamp holding the air filter assembly to the rubber hose.
3. Rotate the air filter assembly 90 degrees clockwise without
disconnecting the sensor.
4. Seat the air filter assembly back into the grommets by pushing
down on the air filter assembly.
5. Tighten the clamp.
6. Install and tighten two bolts that
attach air filter assembly to the
front of the vehicle. 7.
Install the bolt cover (if equipped).
8. Reinstall the harness retaining clip
into the front of the air filter
assembly.
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.
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.
276
MaintenanceE158846

Your vehicle is equipped with a
Motorcraft® maintenance-free
battery which normally does not
require additional water during its life
of service.
Note:
If your battery has a
cover/shield, make sure it is reinstalled
after the battery has been cleaned or
replaced.
For longer, trouble-free operation,
keep the top of the battery clean and
dry. Also, make certain the battery
cables are always tightly fastened to
the battery terminals.
If you see any corrosion on the battery
or terminals, remove the cables from
the terminals and clean with a wire
brush. You can neutralize the acid with
a solution of baking soda and water.
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.
To ensure proper operation of the
battery management system (BMS),
any electrical devices that are added
to the vehicle should not have their
ground connection made directly at
the negative battery post. A
connection at the negative battery
post can cause inaccurate
measurements of the battery
condition and potential incorrect
system operation. Note:
Electrical or electronic
accessories or components added to
the vehicle by the dealer or the owner
may adversely affect battery
performance and durability and may
also affect the performance of other
electrical systems in the vehicle.
When a battery replacement is
required, the battery should only be
replaced with a Ford recommended
replacement battery that matches
the electrical requirements of the
vehicle.
When the battery is disconnected or
a new battery installed, the automatic
transmission must relearn its adaptive
strategy. As a result of this, the
transmission may shift firmly when
first driven. This operation is
considered normal and will fully
update transmission operation to its
optimum shift feel.
If the battery has been disconnected
or a new battery has been installed,
the clock and the preset radio stations
must be reset once the battery is
reconnected.
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.
