TIRE INFORMATION
Important tire information
Your SVT vehicle is equipped with unique wheels and tires designed to
enhance performance and appearance. To continue providing this
performance, extra care must be taken when operating and maintaining
your vehicle.
Tires
Your SVT vehicle is equipped with low profile, high performance tires
that are designed to optimize handling, steering and braking to provide
the performance you expect in a SVT vehicle. These tires are not
optimized for off-road or winter performance, and their ride, noise and
wear characteristics are different than other tires. Also, because of their
lower profile, the tires are more susceptible to damage due to potholes
and rough or unpaved roads. To ensure that your tires perform as
designed, it is important that you maintain your tires properly:
•Always maintain your tire pressures according to the tire information
placard in the doorjamb or inside the fuel filler door, using an accurate
gauge.

Octane recommendations
Your vehicle is designed to use
“Premium”unleaded gasoline with
an (R+M)/2 octane rating of 91 or
higher. The use of gasoline with
lower octane ratings may damage
the engine. Gasoline labeled as“Premium”in high altitude areas that are
sold with octane ratings of less than 91 are not recommended.
If your engine knocks under any driving conditions while you are using
fuel with the recommended octane rating, see your dealer or a qualified
service technician to prevent any engine damage.
Synthetic fluids
There are no synthetic fluids or break-in fluids in your SVT Focus engine
when it leaves the factory. Note that SVT does not make
recommendations about the use of synthetic oils in your engine. should
you decide to use synthetic engine oil, we recommend you allow 4,000 to
6,000 (6,500 km to 9,600 km) in order to assure complete break-in
before switching to synthetic oil.
Maintenance and break-in
For complete maintenance and break-in procedure information, please
refer to yourFocus Owner’s Guide.
