Replacing headlamp bulbs
To remove the headlamp bulb:
1. Make sure the headlamp control is in the OFF position, then open the
hood
2. Remove the three pin type retainers and the radiator sight shield.
3. Disconnect the electrical
connector.
4. Remove the headlamp retainer
bolts and the headlamp assembly.
5. Remove the headlamp bulb
protective cover.
6. Remove the bulb retaining ring by
rotating it countercloskwise to free
it from the bulb socket and slide the
ring off of the plastic base. Keep the
ring to retain the new bulb.
7. Disconnect the electrical
connector from the bulb.
8. To install, reverse the removal
procedure. (Re-aiming the
headlamps may be necessary. For
additional information refer to the
headlamp aiming section of the
owner's guide.)
Handle a halogen headlamp
bulb carefully and keep out
of children's reach. Grasp the bulb
only by its plastic base and do not
touch the glass. The oil from your
hand could cause the bulb to
break the next time the
headlamps are operated.
Note: If the bulb is accidentally
touched, it should be cleaned with
rubbing alcohol before being used.

The headlamp bulb should not be removed from the headlamp until just
before a replacement bulb is installed. Removing the bulb for an
extended period of time may affect headlamp bulb performance.
Contaminants may enter the headlamp where they can settle on the lens
and reflector. Never turn the headlamps on with the bulb removed.
Replacing front parking lamp/turn signal bulbs
The park/turn lamp bulbs can be replaced with out removing the
headlamp assembly.
1. Make sure headlamp switch is in OFF position, then open the hood.
2. Remove the three pin type retainers and the radiator shield.
3. Remove the headlamp assembly retaining nuts, the side turn signal
lamp retaining nuts and the side turn signal assembly.
4. Remove the bulb from the side turn lamp assembly.
5. Disconnect the electrical connector from the bulb and replace the
bulb.
Note: The parking lamp/turn signal bulbs should not be removed from
the lamp until just before a replacement bulb is installed. Removing the
bulb for an extended period of time may affect headlamp bulb
performance. Contaminants may enter the headlamp where they can
settle on the lens and reflector. Never turn the lamps on with the bulb
removed.
6. To install, reverse the order of the removal procedure.
Replacing tail lamp/brake/turn lamp bulbs

ESE-M97B44±A or yellow-colored Motorcraft Premium Gold Engine
Coolant meeting Ford Specification WSS-M97B51±A1. To determine your
vehicle's coolant type (color), check your coolant reservoir.
²Add Motorcraft Premium Engine Coolant (green-colored),
VC-4±A (U.S.) or CXC-10 (Canada) or Motorcraft Premium
Gold Engine Coolant (yellow-colored), VC-7±A (VC-7±B in
Oregon), depending on the type of coolant originally equipped
in your vehicle.If you are unsure which type of coolant your vehicle
requires, check your coolant reservoir or contact your local dealer.
Note:Use of Motorcraft Cooling System Stop Leak Pellets, VC-6,
darkens the color of Motorcraft Premium Gold Engine Coolant from
yellow to golden tan.
²Do not add/mix an orange-colored, extended life coolant such
as Motorcraft Speciality Orange Engine Coolant, VC-2 (US) or
CXC-209 (Canada), meeting Ford specification WSS-M97B44±D
with the factory-filled coolant.Mixing Motorcraft Speciality Orange
Engine Coolant or any orange-colored extended life product with your
factory filled coolant can result in degraded corrosion protection.
²A large amount of water without engine coolant may be added, in case
of emergency, to reach a vehicle service location. In this instance, the
cooling system must be drained and refilled with a 50/50 mixture of
engine coolant and distilled water as soon as possible. Water alone
(without engine coolant) can cause engine damage from corrosion,
overheating or freezing.
²Do not use alcohol, methanol, brine or any engine coolants
mixed with alcohol or methanol antifreeze (coolant).Alcohol
and other liquids can cause engine damage from overheating or
freezing.
²Do not add extra inhibitors or additives to the coolant.These
can be harmful and compromise the corrosion protection of the engine
coolant.
²Do not mix with recycled coolant unless from a Ford-approved
recycling process (seeUse of Recycled engine coolantsection).
For vehicles with overflow coolant systems with a non-pressurized cap
on the coolant recovery system, add coolant to the coolant recovery
reservoir when the engine is cool. Add the proper mixture of coolant and
water to the ªcold fullº level. For all other vehicles, which have a coolant
degas system with a pressurized cap, or if it is necessary to remove the
coolant pressure relief cap on the radiator of a vehicle with an overflow
system, follow these steps to add engine coolant.
