WINDOWS AND WIPER BLADES
The windshield, rear and side windows and the
wiper blades should be cleaned regularly. If the
wipers do not wipe properly, substances on the
vehicle’s glass or the wiper blades may be the cause.
These may include hot wax treatments used by
commercial car washes, tree sap, or other organic
contamination. To clean these items, please follow
these tips:
•The windshield, rear windows and side windows
may be cleaned with a non-abrasive cleaner such
as Motorcraft Ultra Clear Spray Glass Cleaner
(ZC-23), available from your dealer.
•Do not use abrasives, as they may cause
scratches.
•Do not use fuel, kerosene, or paint thinner to
clean any parts.
•Wiper blades can be cleaned with isopropyl
(rubbing) alcohol or windshield washer solution.
Be sure to replace wiper blades when they appear
worn or do not function properly.
CONVERTIBLE TOP AND PADDED MOLDING
Wash with Motorcraft Triple Clean (ZC-13), which is
available from your dealer.
•Do not use stiff bristle brushes or abrasive
materials or cleaners.
•Hot waxes applied by commercial car washes can
affect the cleanability of vinyl material.
•Using high water pressure or wand-type car
washes against the convertible top and windows
may cause water leaks and possible seal damage.
INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CLUSTER LENS
Clean the instrument panel with a damp cloth, then
dry with a dry cloth.
•Avoid cleaners or polish that increase the gloss of
the upper portion of the instrument panel. The
dull finish in this area helps protect the driver
from undesirable windshield reflection.

Cleaning

Cleaner air
Ford endorses the use of reformulated
“cleaner-burning”gasolines to improve air quality.
Running out of fuel
Avoid running out of fuel because this situation may
have an adverse affect on powertrain components.
If you have run out of fuel:
•You may need to cycle the ignition from OFF to
ON several times after refueling, to allow the fuel
system to pump the fuel from the tank to the
engine.
•Your“Service Engine Soon”indicator may come
on. For more information on the“Service Engine
Soon”indicator, refer to theInstrument cluster
chapter.
Fuel Filter
For fuel filter replacement, see your dealer or a
qualified service technician. Refer to the scheduled
maintenance guide for the appropriate intervals for
changing the fuel filter.
Replace the fuel filter with an authorized
Motorcraft part. The customer warranty may
be void for any damage to the fuel system if an
authorized Motorcraft fuel filter is not used.
ESSENTIALS OF GOOD FUEL ECONOMY
Measuring techniques
Your best source of information about actual fuel
economy is you, the driver. You must gather
information as accurately and consistently as
possible. Fuel expense, frequency of fill-ups or fuel
gauge readings are NOT accurate as a measure of
fuel economy. We do not recommend taking fuel
economy measurements during the first 1,600 km
(1,000 miles) of driving (engine break-in period).
You will get a more accurate measurement after
3,000 km–5,000 km (2,000 miles-3,000 miles).

On board diagnostics (OBD-II)
Your vehicle is equipped with a computer that
monitors the engine’s emission control system. This
system is commonly known as the On Board
Diagnostics System (OBD-II). This OBD-II system
protects the environment by ensuring that your
vehicle continues to meet government emission
standards. The OBD-II system also assists the
service technician in properly servicing your vehicle.
When theCheck Engine/Service Engine Soonlight
illuminates, the OBD-II system has detected a
malfunction. Temporary malfunctions may cause
yourCheck Engine/Service Engine Soonlight to
illuminate. Examples are:
1. The vehicle has run out of fuel. (The engine may
misfire or run poorly.)
2. Poor fuel quality or water in the fuel.
3. The fuel cap may not have been securely
tightened.
These temporary malfunctions can be corrected by
filling the fuel tank with good quality fuel and/or
properly tightening the fuel cap. After three driving
cycles without these or any other temporary
malfunctions present, theCheck Engine/Service
Engine Soonlight should turn off. (A driving cycle
consists of a cold engine startup followed by mixed
city/highway driving.) No additional vehicle service is
required.
If theCheck Engine/Service Engine Soonlight
remains on, have your vehicle serviced at the first
available opportunity.
Readiness for Inspection/Maintenance (I/M)
testing
In some localities, it may be a legal requirement to
pass an I/M test of the on-board diagnostics system.
If your“Check Engine/Service Engine Soon”light is
on, refer to the description in theWarning lights
and chimessection of theInstrument cluster
chapter. Your vehicle may not pass the I/M test with
the“Check Engine/Service Engine Soon”light on.
