ODOR AND PARTICULATE AIR FILTRATION SYSTEM
(IF EQUIPPED)
The odor and particulate air filtration system is designed to reduce the
concentration of objectionable exterior odors as well as airborne particles
such as dust, spores and pollen in the air being supplied to the interior
of the vehicle. The extent of EXTERIOR odor reduction depends on the
odor itself and the perceptional threshold of the individual. The odor and
particulate filtration system gives the following benefits to customers:
•Improves the customer’s driving comfort by reducing odor and particle
concentration
•Improves the interior compartment cleanliness
•Protects the climate control components from particle deposits
The filter is located just in front of the windshield under the cowl grille
on the passenger side of the vehicle.
For more information, or to replace the filter, see your Ford, Lincoln or
Mercury Dealer.

BULBS
Replacing exterior bulbs
It is a good idea to check the operation of the following lights frequently:
•Headlamps
•Turn signals
•Cornering lamps
•High-mount brakelamp
•Tail lamps
•Brakelamps
•Backup lamps
•License plate lamps
Do not remove lamp bulbs unless they will be replaced immediately. If a
bulb is removed for an extended period of time, contaminants may enter
the lamp housings and affect performance.
Using the right bulbs
Replacement bulbs are specified in the chart below. Headlamp bulbs
must be marked with an authorized“D.O.T.”for North America and an
“E”for Europe to assure lamp performance, light brightness and pattern
and safe visibility. The correct bulbs will not damage the lamp assembly
or void the lamp assembly warranty and will provide quality bulb burn
time.

Replacing headlamp bulbs
To remove the headlamp bulb:
1. Make sure headlamp switch is in OFF position, then open the hood.
2. Disconnect the electrical
connector from the bulb by pulling
rearward.
3. Remove the bulb retaining ring by
rotating it counterclockwise (when
viewed from the rear) to free it
from the bulb socket, and slide the
ring off the plastic base. Keep the
ring to retain the new bulb.
4. Without turning, remove the old
bulb from its socket by gently
pulling it straight back out of the
lamp assembly.
To install the new bulb:
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.

1. With the flat side of the new bulb’s plastic base facing upward, insert
the glass end of the bulb into the lamp assembly. Turn the bulb left or
right to align the grooves in the plastic base with the tabs in the lamp
assembly. When the grooves are aligned, push the bulb into the lamp
assembly until the plastic base contacts the rear of the lamp assembly.
2. Install the bulb retaining ring over the plastic base until it contacts the
rear of the socket by rotating clockwise until you feel a“stop.”
3. Connect the electrical connector into the rear of the plastic base until
it snaps, locking it into position.
4. Turn the headlamps on and make sure they work properly. If the
headlamp was correctly aligned before you changed the bulb, you should
not need to align it again.
Replacing front cornering/side marker lamp bulbs
1. Remove screw from the lamp
assembly.
2. Disengage lamp assembly (it has
a snap fit).
3. Remove bulb socket by turning it
counterclockwise about
1⁄4turn,
then slide it out of the lamp
assembly.
4. Carefully pull bulb straight out of
the socket and push in the new
bulb.
5. To complete installation, follow
removal procedure in the reverse
order.
