CD/CD PLAYER CARE
Do:
²Handle discs by their edges only. Never touch the playing surface.
²Inspect discs before playing. Clean only with an approved CD cleaner
and wipe from the center out.
Don't:
²Expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources for extended periods
of time.
²Insert more than one disc into each slot of the CD changer magazine.
²Clean using a circular motion.
CD units are designed to play commercially pressed 12 cm (4.75
in) audio compact discs only. Due to technical incompatibility,
certain recordable and re-recordable compact discs may not
function correctly when used in Ford CD players. Irregular
shaped CDs, CDs with a scratch protection film attached, and CDs
with homemade paper (adhesive) labels should not be inserted
into the CD player. The label may peel and cause the CD to
become jammed. It is recommended that homemade CDs be
identified with permanent felt tip marker rather than adhesive
labels. Ball point pens may damage CDs. Please contact your
dealer for further information.

4. Disconnect the electrical
connector by pulling downward.
5. Rotate the high beam bulb
counterclockwise until the tabs on
the bulb line up with the ring, and
the bulb can be removed by pulling
rearward.
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. Push the bulb straight in,
carefully aligning the plastic tabs in
the base of the bulb with the
openings in the plastic ring.
2. Rotate the bulb clockwise until it
stops.
3. Reconnect the electrical
connector to the bulb.
4. Install the headlamp on the
vehicle by aligning the four plastic projections into the four holes,
pushing rearward to seat the lamp assembly.
5. Insert the two retainers, making sure that the retainers go over both
plastic projections on each side of the lamp, pushing the retainers down
until they seat.
6. Replace the plastic radiator cover by inserting the edge of the cover
into the tongue and groove of the mating cover, and then rotating the
cover downward. Press firmly on the cover over each headlamp and in
the center of the cover to re-engage the snap in fasteners.
7. 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.
If a low beam headlamp bulb fails, take your vehicle to your
dealer or a qualified service technician to have it replaced.

Distance to empty (DTE)

how far you can drive with the fuel
remaining in your tank under
normal driving conditions.
Remember to turn the ignition OFF when refueling to allow this feature
to correctly detect the added fuel.
The DTE function will display LOW FUEL LEVEL and sound a tone for
one second when you have approximately 80 km (50 miles) to empty. If
you RESET this warning message, this display and tone will return
within 10 minutes.
DTE is calculated using a running average fuel economy, which is based
on your recent driving history of 800 km (500 miles). This value is not
the same as the average fuel economy display. The running average fuel
economy is reinitialized to a factory default value if the battery is
disconnected.

Safety belt extension assembly
If the safety belt is too short when fully extended, there is a 20 cm (8
inch) safety belt extension assembly that can be added (part number
611C22). This assembly can be obtained from your dealer at no cost.
Use only extensions manufactured by the same supplier as the safety
belt. Manufacturer identification is located at the end of the webbing on
the label. Also, use the safety belt extension only if the safety belt is too
short for you when fully extended.
Do not use extensions to change the fit of the shoulder belt
across the torso.
Safety belt maintenance
Inspect the safety belt systems periodically to make sure they work
properly and are not damaged. Inspect the safety belts to make sure
there are no nicks, tears or cuts. Replace if necessary. All safety belt
assemblies, including retractors, buckles, front seat belt buckle
assemblies, buckle support assemblies (slide bar-if equipped), shoulder
belt height adjusters (if equipped), shoulder belt guide on seatback (if
equipped), child safety seat LATCH and tether anchors, and attaching
hardware, should be inspected after a collision. Ford Motor Company
