Possible cause
Low tire pressure
warning light
1. Make sure tires are at the proper
pressure. See Inflating your tires in this
chapter. 2. After inflating your tires to the
manufacturer’s recommended pressure
as shown on the Tire Label (located on
the edge of driver’ s door or the B-Pillar),
the vehicle must be driven for at least
two minutes over 20 mph (32 km/h)
before the light turns off.
Tire(s) under-inflated
Solid warning light
Repair the damaged road wheel and tire
assembly and reinstall it on the vehicle
to restore system functionality. For a
description on how the system functions,
see When your temporary spare tire is
installed in this section.
Spare tire in use
If the tires are properly inflated and the
spare tire is not in use but the light
remains on, contact your authorized
dealer as soon as possible.

When Inflating your Tires
When putting air into your tires (such as at
a gas station or in your garage), the tire
pressure monitoring system may not
respond immediately to the air added to
your tires.
It may take up to two minutes of driving
over 20 mph (32 km/h) for the light to turn
off after you have filled your tires to the
recommended inflation pressure
How Temperature Affects your Tire
Pressure
The tire pressure monitoring system
monitors tire pressure in each pneumatic
tire. While driving in a normal manner, a
typical passenger tire inflation pressure
may increase approximately 2 to 4 psi (14
to 28 kPa) from a cold start situation. If the
vehicle is stationary overnight with the
outside temperature significantly lower
than the daytime temperature, the tire
pressure may decrease approximately 3
psi (21 kPa) for a drop of 30°F (17°C) in
ambient temperature. This lower pressure
value may be detected by the TPMS as
being significantly lower than the
recommended inflation pressure and
activate the TPMS warning light for low
tire pressure. If the low tire pressure
warning light is on, visually check each tire
to verify that no tire is flat. (If one or more
tires are flat, repair as necessary.) Check
air pressure in the road tires. If any tire is
under-inflated, carefully drive the vehicle
to the nearest location where air can be
added to the tires. Inflate all the tires to
the recommended inflation pressure.

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 whee\
l 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 th\
e mounting surfaces
of the wheel. Installing wheels without correct metal-to-metal contact a\
t the wheel
mounting surfaces can cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to co\
me off while
your vehicle is in motion, resulting in loss of control. Ib-ft (Nm)

* Torque specifications are for nut and bolt threads free of dirt and rust.\
Use only Ford

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

Inspect the wheel pilot bore and
mounting surface prior to installation.
Remove any visible corrosion or loose
particles.

result in engine damage.
3 For spark plug replacement, see your authorized dealer. Replace the spark plugs at
the appropriate intervals. See Scheduled Maintenance (page 412).
Note:
Replace the spark plugs with ones that meet Ford material and design spec\
ifications
for your vehicle, such as Motorcraft or equivalent replacement parts. The customer
warranty may be void for any damage to the engine if such spark plugs ar\
e not used.

1 Ford recommends using Motorcraft (Ford) DOT 4 LV High Performance Motor Vehicle
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.
2 Approximate dry fill capacity. Actual amount may vary during fluid changes.
3 Automatic transmissions that require Motorcraft MERCON LV transmission fluid should
only use Motorcraft MERCON LV transmission fluid.
Use of any fluid other than the recommended fluid may cause transmission\
damage.
Change the automatic transmission fluid and filter at the correct servic\
e interval. See
Scheduled Maintenance (page 412).
4 The design of your engine allows for the use of Motorcraft engine oils o\
r equivalent oils
that meet Ford specifications. It is also acceptable to use an engine oi\
l of recommended
viscosity grade that meets API SN requirements and displays the API cert\
ification mark
for gasoline engines.
5 Do not use supplemental engine oil additives, cleaners or other engine t\
reatments. They
are unnecessary and could lead to engine damage not covered by Ford warr\
anty.
6 Do not use API S category oils labeled as SN, SM, SL or lower category u\
nless the label
also displays the API certification mark. These oils do not meet the req\
uirements of the
engine and emission system.
7 You can use 5W-20 oil if 0W-20 oil is not available.
8 Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.
9 See the warning below: WARNING
The air conditioning refrigerant system contains refrigerant R-134a unde\
r high
pressure. Opening the air conditioning refrigerant system can cause personal inj\
ury.
Have the air conditioning refrigerant system serviced only by qualified \
personnel. 308
