²To help reduce early nozzle shut
off and fuel spillage, park your
vehicle so the fuel filler door is
level.
²Avoid excessively fast fuel
dispensing rates (over 38 L
[10 gallons] per minute).
²If you spill fuel on the body of
your vehicle, clean it off
immediately. The fuel may dull
or soften the paint if it is not
washed off promptly.
²To replace the fuel cap, align
the tabs on the cap with the
notches on the fuel filler pipe.
Turn it clockwise until it stops.
²Push the fuel door closed.
If the check engine warning light
illuminates and remains illuminated
while the engine is started, the
fuel cap may not be properly
seated. Turn off the engine,
remove the fuel cap and replace it,
being sure to align the cap
properly.
If the cap is lost, replace it with an
authorized Motorcraft or equivalent
part.
Calculating fuel economy
To accurately calculate your
vehicle's fuel economy:
1. Fill the tank completely and
record the initial odometer
reading.
2. Each time you fill the tank,
record the amount of fuel added
(in liters or gallons).
