Replacing the battery
The remote entrytransmitter uses one coin type three-volt lithium
battery CR2032 or equivalent. The typical operating range for your
remote entrytransmitter is approximately10 meters (33 feet). A
decrease in the operating range could be caused by:
•weather conditions,
•nearbyradio towers,
•structures around the vehicle and
•other vehicles parked next to the vehicle.
To replace the battery:
1. Twist a thin coin between the two
halves of the remote entry
transmitter near the keyring. DO
NOT TAKE THE FRONT PART OF
THE REMOTE ENTRY
TRANSMITTER APART.
2. Remove the old battery.
3. Insert the new battery. Refer to
the diagram inside the remote entry
transmitter for the correct orientation of the battery.
4. Snap the two halves back together.
Note:Replacement of the batterywillnotcause the remote transmitter
to become deprogrammed from your vehicle. The remote transmitter
should operate normallyafter batteryreplacement.

4. ON, all electrical circuits operational. Warning lights illuminated. Key
position when driving.
5. START, cranks the engine. Release the keyas soon as the engine
starts.

Engine starting is controlled bythe powertrain control system. This
system meets all Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment standard
requirements regulating the impulse electrical field strength of radio
noise.
When starting a fuel-injected engine, don’t press the accelerator before
or during starting. Onlyuse the accelerator when you have difficulty
starting the engine. For more information on starting the vehicle, refer to
Starting the enginein this chapter.

Roadside Emergencies
157

When lifting a plastic-cased battery, excessive pressure on the
end walls could cause acid to flow through the vent caps,
resulting in personal injuryand/or damage to the vehicle or battery.
Lift the batterywith a batterycarrier or with your hands on opposite
corners.
Keep batteries out of reach of children. Batteries contain sulfuric
acid. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Shield your eyes
when working near the batteryto protect against possible splashing of
acid solution. In case of acid contact with skin or eyes, flush
immediatelywith water for a minimum of 15 minutes and get prompt
medical attention. If acid is swallowed, call a physician immediately.
Batteryposts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and
lead compounds.Wash hands after handling.
For information on transmission operation after the batteryhas been
disconnected see “Shift strategy” in the driving section.
Because your vehicle’s engine is also electronicallycontrolled bya
computer, some control conditions are maintained bypower from the
battery. When the batteryis disconnected or a new batteryis installed,
the engine must relearn its idle and fuel trim strategyfor optimum
driveabilityand performance. To begin this process:
1. With the vehicle at a complete stop, set the parking brake.
2. Put the gearshift in P (Park) (automatic transmission) or the neutral
position (manual transmission), turn off all accessories and start the
engine.
3. Run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature.
4. Allow the engine to idle for at least one minute.
5. Turn the A/C on and allow the engine to idle for at least one minute.
6. Drive the vehicle to complete the relearning process.
•The vehicle mayneed to be driven 16 km (10 miles) or more to
relearn the idle and fuel trim strategy.
•If you do not allow the engine to relearn its idle trim, the idle
quality of your vehicle may be adversely affected until the idle
trim is eventually relearned.
If the batteryhas been disconnected or a new batteryhas been installed,
the clock and the preset radio stations must be reset once the batteryis
reconnected.
Maintenance and Specifications

Wood trim - interim applique
For maximum vehicle performance, keep the following information in
mind when adding accessories or equipment to your vehicle:
•When adding accessories, equipment, passengers and luggage to your
vehicle, do not exceed the total weight capacityof the vehicle or of
the front or rear axle (GVWR or GAWR as indicated on the Safety
compliance certification label). Consult your dealer for specific weight
information.
•The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Canadian Radio
Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) regulate the use of mobile
communications systems - such as two-way radios, telephones and
theft alarms - that are equipped with radio transmitters. Anysuch
equipment installed in your vehicle should comply with FCC or CRTC
regulations and should be installed onlybya qualified service
technician.
•Mobile communications systems may harm the operation of your
vehicle, particularlyif theyare not properlydesigned for automotive
use or are not properlyinstalled. When operated, such systems may
cause the engine to stumble or stall or cause the transmission to be
damaged or operate improperly. In addition, such sy stems may be
damaged or their performance maybe affected byoperating your
vehicle. (Citizens band [CB] transceivers, garage door openers and
other transmitters with outputs of five watts or less will not ordinarily
affect your vehicle’s operation.)
•Ford cannot assume responsibilityfor anyadverse effects or damage
that mayresult from the use of such equipment.
