BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System)
with Cross Traffic Alert*
BLIS aids you in detecting vehicles that may have
entered into your blind spot area on both sides of
the vehicle, extending rearward from the exterior
mirrors to approximately 10 feet (3 meters) beyond
the bumper.
Cross traffic alert warns you of vehicles approaching
from the sides when the transmission is in reverse
(R). It detects approaching vehicles from up to
45 feet (14 meters) away.

driving. Use both systems only as an assist.
Essential Information
Easy Fuel® System
With this system, you open the fuel
door, insert the nozzle and begin
fueling. It is self-sealing and therefore
protected against dust, dirt, water,
snow and ice. Wait between five and
ten seconds from the time the refueling
nozzle is shut-off until you remove the
nozzle from the vehicle to allow residual fuel in the nozzle to drain in\
to the tank.
When using a portable fuel container, slowly insert the fuel funnel (lo\
cated in the
spare tire compartment) and pour the fuel into the funnel.
Note: Do not use aftermarket funnels as they do not work with the Easy Fuel
system and may cause damage. Properly clean the funnel after each use.
Fuel Tank Capacity and Fuel Info
Fuel tank capacity varies on your MKZ, depending on your drive type and \
engine: 16.5 gallons (62.5 liters) for front-wheel drive models equipp\
ed with the
2.0L EcoBoost engine and 17.5 gallons (66.2 liters) for all-wheel driv\
e models
and those equipped with the 3.7L V6 engine. Use only UNLEADED gasoline
blended with a maximum of 15% ethanol and an 87 octane rating. Do not use E85
(ethanol), diesel, fuel-methanol, leaded fuel or any other fuel becaus\
e it could
damage or impair the emission control system.
Automatic Engine Shutdown
Your vehicle includes a feature that automatically shuts down the engine\
if it has
been idling for an extended period of time. The ignition also turns off \
in order

allowing you to drive your vehicle up to 120 miles
(200 kilometers) at a maximum speed of 50 mph
(80 km/h) to reach a tire service location. Note: After sealant use, the tire pressure monitoring
system sensor and valve stem on the wheel must be
replaced by an authorized dealer. For more details,
refer to the Wheels and Tires chapter of your
Owner’s Manual .

Your spare tire and tools are located beneath the
carpeted floor panel in the trunk of your vehicle.
