Electric exterior mirrors are fitted with a
heating element that will defrost or demist
the mirror glass. They will switch on
automatically when you switch the heated

AUXILIARY HEATER
Parking heater
WARNINGS
The parking heater must not be
operated at filling stations, near
sources of combustible vapours or
dust or in enclosed spaces. The parking heater should be
switched on for approximately 10
minutes at least once a month all
year round. This prevents the water pump
and heater motor from seizing. Note:
The parking heater will only
operate if there is at least 7.5 litres (1.6 gallons) of fuel in the fuel tank and theambient temperature is below 15°C(59°F). The heater will not operate if thebattery is low.
Note:The heating depends on the
outside air temperature.
Note:When the parking heater is
activated, exhaust fumes may come from under the sides of the vehicle. This isnormal.
Note:On vehicles with manual climate
control the heating of the vehicle interior is dependent on the temperature, airdistribution and blower control settings.
The parking heater operates
independently of the vehicle heater by
heating the engine’s coolant circuit. It is
fed from the vehicle fuel tank. You can
also use it while the vehicle is in motion to
help the vehicle heater warm up the
interior more quickly.
Used properly, the parking heater
provides the following benefits:
• It preheats the interior of the vehicle.
• It keeps the windows clear of ice in
the event of frost and prevents
condensation.
• It avoids cold starts and allows the
engine to reach operating
temperature sooner.
To prevent the battery from discharging:
• Once the parking heater has
performed one heating cycle, the next
programmed heating cycle will only
be carried out if you have started the
vehicle’s engine in between.
• After a heating cycle, drive the vehicle
for at least the period of the heating
cycle.

GENERAL INFORMATION
General points on starting
If the battery has been disconnected the
vehicle may exhibit some unusual driving
characteristics for approx. 8 kilometres
(5 miles) after reconnecting the battery.
This is because the engine management
system must realign itself with the engine.
Any unusual driving characteristics during
this period may be disregarded.
Starting the engine by towing
or pushing
WARNING
To prevent damage you must not
push or tow start your vehicle. Use
booster cables and a booster
battery. See Using booster cables
(page 154). KEYLESS STARTING
WARNINGS
The keyless starting system may not
function if the key is close to metal
objects or electronic devices such
as mobile phones. Always check that the steering
wheel lock is deactivated before
attempting to move your vehicle.
Note:A valid passive key must be
located inside the vehicle to switch the ignition on and start the engine.
Note:To start your engine you must also
fully depress the brake or clutch pedal, depending on the transmission fitted. Ignition on
Press the start button once. All electrical
circuits are operational, warning lamps
and indicators illuminate.
Starting with automatic
transmission
Note:
Releasing the brake pedal during
engine start will stop the engine cranking and return to ignition on.
1. Make sure the transmission is in Por
N.
2. Fully depress the brake pedal.
3. Briefly press the start button.
Starting with manual
transmission
Note:
Releasing the clutch pedal during
engine start will stop the engine cranking and return to ignition on.
1. Fully depress the clutch pedal.
2. Briefly press the start button.
Starting a diesel engine
Note:
Engine cranking will not
commence until the engine glow plug cycle has been completed. This may takeseveral seconds in extremely coldconditions.
Note:Continue to press the clutch or
brake pedal until engine cranking begins.

Failure to start
The passive starting system will not
function if:
•
The passive key frequencies are
jammed.
• The passive key battery is flat.
If you are unable to start your vehicle carry
out the following procedure. 1. Hold the key next to the steering
column shroud exactly as shown.
2. With the key in this position you can use the start button to switch the
ignition on and start your vehicle.
If you are still unable to start your vehicle
carry out the following procedure. 1. Carefully prise out the cover. 2.
Remove the key blade. See Keyless
entry (page 31). 3. Insert the key blade into the key
holder.
4. With the key blade in this position you can use the start button to switch the
ignition on and start your vehicle.
Stopping the engine
When your vehicle is stationary, press the
start button to stop the engine. The
ignition, all electrical circuits, warning
lamps and indicators will be switched off.
DIESEL PARTICULATE
FILTER (DPF)
The DPF forms part of the emissions
reduction systems fitted to your vehicle.
It filters harmful diesel particulates (soot)
from the exhaust gas.

Regeneration
WARNING
Do not park or idle your vehicle over
dry leaves, dry grass or other
combustible materials. The DPF
regeneration process creates very high
exhaust gas temperatures and the
exhaust will radiate a considerable
amount of heat during and after DPF
regeneration, and after you have switched
the engine off. This is a potential fire
hazard. CAUTION
Avoid running out of fuel.
Note:After you have switched your
engine off the fans may continue to run for a short period of time.
Unlike a normal filter which requires
periodic replacement, the DPF has been
designed to regenerate, or clean itself to
maintain operating efficiency. The
regeneration process takes place
automatically. However, some driving
conditions mean that you may need to
support the regeneration process.
If you drive only short distances or your
journeys contain frequent stopping and
starting, where there is increased
acceleration and deceleration, occasional
trips with the following conditions could
assist the regeneration process:
• Drive your vehicle at a constant speed,
preferably on a main road or
motorway, for up to 20 minutes.
• Avoid prolonged idling and always
observe speed limits and road
conditions. •
Do not switch off the ignition.
• Use a lower gear than normal to
maintain a higher engine speed during
this journey, where appropriate.
SWITCHING OFF THE
ENGINE
Vehicles with a turbocharger CAUTION
Do not switch the engine off when it
is running at high speed. If you do,
the turbocharger will continue
running after the engine oil pressure has
dropped to zero. This will lead to
premature turbocharger bearing wear. Release the accelerator pedal. Wait until
the engine has reached idle speed and
then switch it off.

Starting the engine

CAUTIONS
Do not push-start or tow-start your
vehicle. Use booster cables. See
Using booster cables
(page 154).Do not switch the ignition off when
driving.
REFUELLING
CAUTION
Do not attempt to start the engine if
you have filled the fuel tank with the
incorrect fuel. This could damage the
engine. Have the system checked by a
properly trained technician immediately. FUEL CONSUMPTION
The CO2 and fuel consumption figures
are derived from laboratory tests
according to EEC Directive 80/1268/EEC
and subsequent amendments and are
carried out by all vehicle manufacturers.
They are intended as a comparison
between makes and models of vehicles.
They are not intended to represent the
real world fuel consumption you may get
from your vehicle. Real world fuel
consumption is governed by many factors
including; driving style, high speed driving,
stop/start driving, air conditioning usage,
the accessories fitted and towing etc.
Your Ford dealer can give you advice on
improving your fuel consumption.
