2005 LINCOLN LS Quick Reference Guide

ESSENTIAL INFORMATION
FUEL TANK CAPACITY/FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS:Your fuel tank can accommodate 18.5
gallons of gasoline. Your vehicle is designed to use “Premium” unleaded gasoline with an
(R+M)/2 octane rating of 91 or higher for optimum performance. The use of gasolines with
lower octane ratings may degrade performance.
FUSES:If electrical components in your vehicle stop working, a fuse may have blown. (You’ll
notice a broken wire within the fuse.) For information on changing fuses, please consult
your Owner’s Guide.
TIRE PRESSURE:Improperly inflated tires can affect vehicle handling and can fail suddenly,
possibly resulting in loss of vehicle control. Check your tires for proper air pressure monthly;
check the air pressure in your spare tire every six months. Always use an accurate tire
pressure gauge. Check the tire pressure when tires are cold, after the vehicle has been parked
for at least 3 hours or has been driven less than 3 miles. (As you drive, the temperature in the
tire warms up, increasing the tire pressure.) Adjust the tire pressure to the recommended
specifications found on the tire inflation placard.
CHANGING THE TIRES:Your spare tire, jack and lug nut wrench are located under your
trunk cargo cover. (On V8 Sport models, the lug nut wrench is attached to the jack assembly.
To use the wrench, remove it from the jack and extend the shaft.) Your vehicle may have a
temporary or full-size spare tire. The temporary spare tire for your vehicle is labeled as such.
It is smaller than a regular tire and is designed for emergency use only. Drive cautiously and
replace the temporary spare tire as soon as possible.
If you get a flat tire while driving, do not apply the brake heavily. Instead, gradually decrease
your speed. Hold the steering wheel firmly and slowly move to a safe place on the side of
the road.
ROADSIDE EMERGENCIES:To fully assist you if you should have a vehicle concern, Lincoln
offers a complimentary roadside assistance program. This program is separate from the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty. The service is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week for the
Basic Warranty Period (Canada), or New Vehicle Limited Warranty period (U.S.) of four years
or 80,000 km (50,000 miles).
Roadside assistance will cover: Country: Phone Number:
• Changing a flat tire United States (800) 521-4140
• Lockout assistance Canada (800) 665-2006
• Jump-starts
• Towing of your vehicle
• Limited fuel delivery
For complete details on any roadside assistance concern, please consult the Roadside
Emergencies or Customer Assistance chapters of your Owner’s Guide.
