8.Left front tire:Place the TPMS reset tool against the left front tire
where the tire meets the rim, opposite from the valve stem (1) as shown.
This is where the sensor is located inside the rim.
Both tools, the TPMS training tool (part number 8C2Z-1A203-A)
or the Tire Pressure Monitor Activitation Tool (part number
204-363) must be held against the tire sidewall opposite the valve
stem as illustrated. For the TPMS training tool, the device should
be held as illustrated, with the arrow on the tool pointing
towards the rim; do not use the tool with the arrow pointing away
from the rim as it may not activate the sensor.
9. Press and release the activation button while holding either tool to the
side wall until the horn sounds. The horn will sound once within
approximately 10 seconds to indicate the process was successful.
Note:
•If a double horn chirp is heard, repeat the procedure. If a single horn
chirp is not heard, move the vehicle to rotate the wheels at least a
1 4-turn and repeat the procedure starting with Step 1.
•If the horn does not sound while attempting to reset any wheel, seek
service from your authorized dealer.
10. Perform Steps 8 and 9 on the right front tire, right rear tire and
finally the left rear tire. Training is complete after the horn sounds for
the last tire trained (left rear tire).
Turn the ignition to off. If two short horn beeps are heard, the reset
procedure was unsuccessful and must be repeated.

Calibrated speedometer - police
Deviations from true road speeds are minimized by a calibrated
speedometer head which gives both miles-per-hour (0–140 mph) and
kilometer-per-hour (0–222 km/h) readings. The speedometer head
assembly accuracy is2 mph (3 km/h) over the entire range (at 70°F
[21°C]). The “certified calibration” applies to the head assembly only and
does not apply to the indicated speed of the system, which is affected by
variations in vehicle loading, tire inflation pressures, tire rolling radii and
driveline ratios.
Red/White map light - police (if equipped)
Your vehicle may be equipped with a red/white map light located in the
headliner between the driver and front seat passenger. A three-position
switch provides either white or night-vision red options. When the rocker
switch is in the center position, the lamp is off. Pressing the left side
(white dot) makes the lamp operate in the white light mode. Pressing
the right side (red dot) makes the lamp operate in the night-vision red
mode.
Mobile communication systems
The Federal Communications Commission regulates the use of mobile
communication systems (such as two-way radios, telephones and theft
alarms) that are equipped with radio transmitters. If you install this
equipment in your vehicle, you should comply with those rules and a
qualified technician should install the equipment. Ford Motor Company
vehicles are in compliance with FCC regulations (CFR 47 Part 15) and
SAE J551d for radiated electromagnetic emissions.
Mobile communication systems may harm the operation of your vehicle,
particularly if they are not properly designed for automotive use or not
properly installed. For example, when operated, such systems may cause
the engine to stumble or stall and may affect 4R70W transmission
operation. In addition, such systems may themselves be damaged or their
operation affected by operating your vehicle. (Citizen band [CB]
transceivers, garage door openers and other transmitters whose power
output is 5 watts or less will not ordinarily affect your vehicle’s
operation.)
Because we have no control over the installation, design or manufacture
of such systems, Ford cannot assume responsibility for any adverse
effects or damage that may result if you use this equipment.
Malfunction of aftermarket electronic equipment should be resolved by
the equipment manufacturer.
