Block both the front and rear of the wheel
diagonally opposite the flat tire. For
example, if the left front tire is flat, block
the right rear wheel.
4. Remove the carpeted wheel cover.
5. Remove the spare tire bolt securing the spare tire by turning it counterclockwise.
6. Remove the spare tire from the spare tire
compartment. 7. Remove the lug wrench and jack from
the spare tire compartment. 8.
To remove the wrench from the jack, turn
the hex nut on the jack counterclockwise.
This will lower the jack and loosen the
mechanical lock. 9. If your vehicle has a wheel trim, use the
tool supplied to remove it and access the
lug nuts.

11. The vehicle jacking points are shown
here, and can be identified by the
triangle markings on the molding. The
triangle marking may be located on the
side or the underside of the molding.
The jacking points are identified on
vehicles without moldings by a pair of
arrows on the metal flange pointing to
the jacking point between them. Details
are depicted on the warning label on
the jack. 12.
Place the jack at the jacking point next
to the tire you are changing. Turn the
jack handle clockwise until the wheel
is completely off the ground.
13. Remove the lug nuts with the lug wrench. 14.
Replace the flat tire with the spare tire,
making sure the valve stem is facing
outward. Reinstall the lug nuts until the
wheel is snug against the hub. Do not
fully tighten the lug nuts until the wheel
has been lowered. If you are using the
temporary tire, the lug nut washers will
not appear to be flush with the rim. This
is normal only when using the
temporary spare tire.
15. Lower the wheel by turning the jack handle counterclockwise. 361

Lift the carpeted wheel cover at an angle
to access the spare tire compartment. 2.
Place the wheel in the spare tire well with
the valve stem facing down.
3. Install the shorter jack retainer bolt to the
jack bolt-down bracket through the
centre of the wheel. Finally, wind the
wheel retainer down to secure the wheel
in place.
4. Place the jack and tools back into the spare tire compartment.
5. Replace the carpeted wheel cover.
Stowing the Flat Tire Using the
Retainer Strap (If Equipped)
You can temporarily stow the full-size road
wheel in the spare tire compartment.
1. Find the flat tire retainer strap tucked inside the jack channel. 2.
Locate the jack bolt-down bracket. Push
the retainer strap through the jack
bolt-down bracket.
3. Put the jack and lug wrench away. Make
sure the jack is fastened so it does not
rattle when you drive.
4. Stow the flat tire on the floor in the cargo
area.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Wheel Lug Nut Torque Specifications
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 t\
he wheel. Installing wheels without correct metal-to-metal contact at
the wheel mounting surfaces can cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the w\
heel to come off while your vehicle is in motion, resulting in loss
of control. lb.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 kil\
ometers) after any wheel disturbance (such as tire rotation, changing \
a
flat tire, wheel removal).

Wheel pilot bore
A
Inspect the wheel pilot hole and mounting
surface prior to installation. Remove any
visible corrosion or loose particles. The tire wheel assembly has already been balanced at the vehicle assembl\
y plant. There are
many factors during the vehicle usage that may lead to a tire wheel imba\
lance. These factors
may cause vehicle vibration and increased steering, suspension and tire \
wear. In this case,
the wheel and tire assembly may need to be re-balanced. The maximum dynamic static
imbalance per wheel balance plane needs to be less than 7g. The tire whe\
el assembly also
needs to be re-balanced after changing the wheel and the tire. Please contact an authorized
dealer for service.

An oil that displays this symbol conforms to
current engine, emission system and fuel
economy performance standards of the
International Lubricants Specification
Advisory Committee (ILSAC).
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.
Note:
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. Note:
Automatic transmissions that require
MERCON LV transmission fluid should only
use MERCON LV transmission fluid. The use
of any other fluid may cause transmission
damage.
