The rear cross-bar can be adjusted to fit the item being carried. The
front cross-bar does not move.

ends of the rear cross-bar.
2. Slide the cross-bar to the desired

3. Tighten the thumbscrews at both
ends of the cross-bar.
Load luggage at the front cross-bar and adjust the rear cross-bar as
necessary.

directly on the cross-bars.

• Do not allow paint sealant to come in contact with any non-body
(low-gloss black) colored trim, such as grained body-side cladding,
roof racks, bumper step surfaces, mirror housings or the windshield
cowl area. The paint sealant will “ gray ” or stain the parts over time.
PAINT CHIPS
Your dealer has touch-up paint and sprays to match your vehicle ’ s color.
Take your color code (printed on a sticker in the driver ’ s door jam) to
your dealer to ensure you get the correct color.
• Remove particles such as bird droppings, tree sap, insect deposits, tar
spots, road salt and industrial fallout before repairing paint chips.
• Always read the instructions before using the products.
ALUMINUM WHEELS AND WHEEL COVERS
Aluminum wheels and wheel covers are coated with a clearcoat paint
finish. In order to maintain their shine:
• Clean weekly with Motorcraft Wheel and Tire Cleaner (ZC-37 – A),
which is available from your dealer. Heavy dirt and brake dust
accumulation may require agitation with a sponge. Rinse thoroughly
with a strong stream of water.
• Never apply any cleaning chemical to hot or warm wheel rims or
covers.
• Some automatic car washes may cause damage to the finish on your
wheel rims or covers. Chemical-strength cleaners, or cleaning
chemicals, in combination with brush agitation to remove brake dust
and dirt, could wear away the clearcoat finish over time.
• Do not use hydrofluoric acid-based or high caustic-based wheel
cleaners, steel wool, fuels or strong household detergent.
• To remove tar and grease, use Motorcraft Bug and Tar Remover
(ZC-42), available from your dealer.
ENGINE
Engines are more efficient when they are clean because grease and dirt
buildup keep the engine warmer than normal. When washing:
• Take care when using a power washer to clean the engine. The
high-pressure fluid could penetrate the sealed parts and cause
damage.
• Do not spray a hot engine with cold water to avoid cracking the
engine block or other engine components.
