GENERAL MAINTENANCE
INFORMATION
Why Maintain Your Vehicle?
Carefully following the maintenance
schedule helps protect against major
repair expenses resulting from neglect
or inadequate maintenance and may
help to increase the value of your
vehicle when you sell or trade it. Keep
all receipts for completed
maintenance with your vehicle.
We have established regular
maintenance intervals for your vehicle
based upon rigorous testing. It is
important that you have your vehicle
serviced at the proper times. These
intervals serve two purposes; one is
to maintain the reliability of your
vehicle and the second is to keep your
cost of owning your vehicle down.
It is your responsibility to have all
scheduled maintenance performed
and to make sure that the materials
used meet the specifications
identified in this owner's manual. See
Capacities and Specifications
(page 329).
Failure to perform scheduled
maintenance invalidates warranty
coverage on parts affected by the lack
of maintenance.
Why Maintain Your Vehicle at
Your Dealership?
Factory-Trained Technicians
Service technicians participate in
extensive factory-sponsored
certification training to help them
become experts on the operation of
your vehicle. Ask your dealership
about the training and certification
their technicians have received.
Genuine Ford and Motorcraft®
Replacement Parts
Dealerships stock Ford, Motorcraft
and Ford-authorized branded
re-manufactured replacement parts.
These parts meet or exceed our
specifications. Parts installed at your
dealership carry a nationwide
12-month or 12000-mile (20000
kilometer) parts and labor limited
warranty.
If you do not use Ford authorized parts
they may not meet our specifications
and depending on the part, it could
affect emissions compliance.
Convenience
Many dealerships have extended
evening and Saturday hours to make
your service visit more convenient and
they offer one stop shopping. They
can perform any services that are
required on your vehicle, from general
maintenance to collision repairs.
Note:Not all dealers have extended
hours or body shops. Please contact
your dealer for details.

Scheduled Maintenance
Page 441 of 468

Oils, Fluids and Flushing
In many cases, fluid discoloration is a
normal operating characteristic and,
by itself, does not necessarily indicate
a concern or that the fluid needs to be
changed. However, a qualified expert,
such as the factory-trained
technicians at your dealership, should
inspect discolored fluids that also
show signs of overheating or foreign
material contamination immediately.Make sure to change your vehicle’s
oils and fluids at the specified
intervals or in conjunction with a
repair. Flushing is a viable way to
change fluid for many vehicle
sub-systems during scheduled
maintenance. It is critical that systems
are flushed only with new fluid that is
the same as that required to fill and
operate the system or using a
Ford-approved flushing chemical.
Owner Checks and Services
Make sure you perform the following
basic maintenance checks and
inspections every month or at
six-month intervals.
Check every month
Engine oil level.
Function of all interior and exterior lights.
Tires (including spare) for wear and proper pressure. Windshield washer fluid level.
Check every six months
Battery connections. Clean if necessary.
Body and door drain holes for obstructions. Clean if necessary. Cooling system fluid level and coolant strength.
Door weatherstrips for wear. Lubricate if necessary.
Hinges, latches and outside locks for proper operation. Lubricate if necessary. Parking brake for proper operation.

Multi-Point inspection
Windshield for cracks, chips or pits
For oil and fluid leaks
Washer spray and wiper operation
Half-shaft dust boots
* Brake, coolant recovery reservoir, automatic transmission and window washer
**If your vehicle is equipped with a temporary mobility kit, check the tire sealant
expiration Use By date on the canister. Replace as needed.
Be sure to ask your dealership service
advisor or technician about the
multi-point vehicle inspection. It is a
comprehensive way to perform a
thorough inspection of your vehicle.
Your checklist gives you immediate
feedback on the overall condition of
your vehicle.
NORMAL SCHEDULED
MAINTENANCE
Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor®
Your vehicle is equipped with an
Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor that
determines when you should change
the engine oil based on how your
vehicle is used. By using several
important factors in its calculations,
the monitor helps reduce the cost of
owning your vehicle and reduces
environmental waste at the same
time. This means you do not have to
remember to change the oil on a
mileage-based schedule. Your vehicle
lets you know when an oil change is
due by displaying ENGINE OIL
CHANGE DUE
or OIL CHANGE
REQUIRED in the information display.
The following table provides
examples of vehicle use and its
impact on oil change intervals. It is a
guideline only. Actual oil change
intervals depend on several factors
and generally decrease with severity
of use.

Exceptions
There are some exceptions your
Normal Scheduled Maintenance:
California fuel filter replacement:
If you register your vehicle in
California, the California Air Resources
Board has determined that the failure
to perform this maintenance item
does not nullify the emission warranty
or limit recall liability before the
completion of your vehicle's useful
life. Ford Motor Company, however,
urges you to have all recommended
maintenance services performed at
the specified intervals and to record
all vehicle service. Hot climate oil change intervals
:
Vehicles operating in the Middle East,
North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa or
locations with similar climates using
an American Petroleum Institute (API)
Certified for Gasoline Engines
(Certification mark) oil of SM or SN
quality, the normal oil change interval
is 5000 miles (8000 kilometers).
If the available API SM or SN oils are
not available, then the oil change
interval is 3000 miles (4800
kilometers).
Engine air filter and cabin air filter
replacement : The life of the engine
air filter and cabin air filter is
dependent on exposure to dusty and
dirty conditions. Vehicles operated in
these conditions require frequent
inspection and replacement of the
engine air filter and cabin air filter.
