running, there may be a malfunction
with the charging system. Contact your authorized dealer as soon as
possible. This indicates a problem with the electrical system or a related
component.
Engine oil pressure:Illuminates
when the oil pressure falls below the
normal range. Check the oil level
and add oil if needed. Refer to
Engine oilin theMaintenance and Specificationschapter.
Engine coolant temperature:

INSTRUMENT PANEL/INTERIOR TRIM AND CLUSTER LENS
Clean the instrument panel, interior trim areas and cluster lens with a
clean, damp, white cotton cloth, then use a clean and dry white cotton
cloth to dry these areas.
•Avoid cleaners or polishes that increase the gloss of the upper portion
of the instrument panel. The dull finish in this area helps protect the
driver from undesirable windshield reflection.
•Be certain to wash or wipe your hands clean if you have been in
contact with certain products such as insect repellent and suntan
lotion in order to avoid possible damage to the interior painted
surfaces.
•Do not use household or glass cleaners as these may damage the
finish of the instrument panel, interior trim and cluster lens.
WARNING:Do not use chemical solvents or strong detergents
when cleaning the steering wheel or instrument panel to avoid
contamination of the airbag system.
If a staining liquid like coffee/juice has been spilled on the instrument
panel or on interior trim surfaces, clean as follows:
1. Wipe up spilled liquid using a clean, white, cotton cloth.
2. Wipe the surface with a damp, clean, white cotton cloth. For more
thorough cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution. If the spot cannot
be completely cleaned by this method, the area may be cleaned using a
commercially available cleaning product designed for automotive
interiors.
3. If necessary, apply more soap and water solution or cleaning product
to a clean, white, cotton cloth and press the cloth onto the soiled
area–allow this to set at room temperature for 30 minutes.
4. Remove the soaked cloth, and if it is not soiled badly, use this cloth to
clean the area by using a rubbing motion for 60 seconds.
5. Following this, wipe area dry with a clean, white, cotton cloth.
INTERIOR
For fabric, carpets, cloth seats, safety belts and seats equipped with side
airbags:
•Remove dust and loose dirt with a vacuum cleaner.
•Remove light stains and soil with Motorcraft

Example:When the odometer has accumulated 3,000 miles (4,828 km)
and the idle meter shows 61 hours, a 5,000 mile (8047 km) oil change
interval will have been reached: 3,000 road miles + (61 idle hours x
33 miles/idle hour) = 5,013 miles. In metric units this calculation would
be 4,828 kilometers + (61 idle hours x 53 km/idle hour) = 8,061 km.
REAR AXLE
Axle break-in – Police and middle eastern countries only
Rear axles in vehicles destined for use by police or in middle eastern
countries are equipped with a synthetic lubricant. Do not drive over
100 mph (160 km/h) for the first 1,000 miles (1,600 km) to allow axle
components to wear in. Additionally, only synthetic lubricant as specified
below should be used when maintenance is performed on the rear axle.

ELECTRICAL
Battery - police
The Motorcraft
maintenance-free battery normally does not require
additional water during its life. However, for severe service usage or in
high temperature climates, the electrolyte level should be checked at
least every five months or 5,000 miles (8,000 km). If the electrolyte level
is below the level indicator in any cell, add enough pure water to bring
the level up to the indicator. Never add electrolyte (battery acid) to the
battery as this could shorten battery life.
Battery - long term storage
Make sure that the battery is fully charged before putting the vehicle in
storage. Disconnect the negative cable if it will be stored for an extended
period of time.
If the battery is discharged, allow it to warm to a moderate temperature,
such as 60°F (16°C), and use a battery charger rather than the vehicles
charging system to bring the battery back to full charge. Use a battery

Headlight flashers (wig-wags) - police
An interfacing connector is provided on the headlight circuit for use of
the headlights as alternating flashers (wig-wags). The connector is
located in front of the radiator. A protective cap is attached to prevent
contaminants from entering the connector when a wig-wag module is not
installed. When installing a headlight flasher (wig-wag) module, remove
the connector and tape it to the wigwag module harness. This will ensure
that the cap is available to be reattached if the wig-wag module is
removed. For additional information, refer to theCrown Victoria
Wiring Diagram Manual.
If your vehicle is equipped with one of the optional Police Interceptor
Equipment Packages, the connector will already be used by the supplied
wig-wag module that comes with the option package.
Note:Use of the wig-wag feature overrides normal operation of the high
beam headlights, including flash-to-pass. However, the low beam
headlights will remain on and unaffected.
HEAVY-DUTY SUSPENSION - POLICE
This option includes certain heavy-duty components that contribute to
the vehicle’s stability and road handling capability under extremes of
operation. The police vehicle has a heavy duty steering gear, extra
control shock absorbers and heavy-duty front and rear stabilizer bars.
COOLERS
It is strongly recommended that auxiliary devices such as lights not be
installed at the grille. Such devices will reduce airflow through the grille
and could potentially impact the cooling system performance.
Oil cooler - police
The 4.6L engine has an engine oil cooler to maintain engine oil
temperatures.
Engine and transmission coolers
External transmission and power steering coolers are located behind the
grille and in front of the radiator. It is strongly recommended that
auxiliary devices such as lights and sirens not be installed in the air path
of these coolers as they will impact cooling system performance.

If after repeating the procedure and two short beeps are heard when the
ignition is turned to off, seek assistance from your authorized dealer.
Brakes - police
The police vehicle is equipped with heavy-duty front disc brake pads to
meet the varying demands of different police service for fade resistance
and other performance requirements.
The police vehicle has standard anti-lock brakes and may be equipped
with traction control.
Brake fluid maintenance
Police pursuits involving hard braking result in very high temperatures in
the brake system, including the brake fluid. Over time, repeated
exposure to high brake temperatures can degrade brake fluid, potentially
reducing its boiling point. A lower boiling point could cause long brake
pedal travel and a loss of braking confidence during subsequent pursuit
driving. Ford recommends that police fleets replace the brake fluid at
every brake pad service interval. Brake fluid may be replaced more
frequently on vehicles involved in frequent high-speed pursuits with
heavy brake usage.
INTERIOR
Heavy-duty seats - police
The front seat assemblies, including the seat adjustment mechanisms and
supports, are ruggedly designed and ensure working comfort. An
anti-stab plate is integrated into the seat back to reduce the risk of
officer injury. An adjustable power lumbar system is standard on the
driver’s seat.
Seat belt extenders
Some police departments have begun employing the use of seat belt
extenders to make the practice of buckling and unbuckling seat belts
easier for officers wearing hip mounted radios, side arms, etc.
Seat belt extenders should never be worn when the lap strap will not
adjust snugly on the hips and/or when the intersection of the lap belt
and shoulder belt straps (measured along the lap strap) is less than six
(6) inches (15 cm) from an imaginary center line of the occupant’s body.
WARNING:Do not use extensions to change the fit of the
shoulder belt across the torso.
