Outside air
Keep the air intakes forward of the
windscreen free from obstruction (snow,
leaves etc.) to allow the climate control
system to function effectively.
Recirculated air
CAUTION
Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to mist up. If the
windows mist up, follow the settings
for defrosting and demisting the
windscreen. The air currently in the passenger
compartment will be recirculated. Outside
air will not enter the vehicle.
Heating
Heating performance depends on the
temperature of the engine coolant.
Air conditioning
Note:
The air conditioning operates only
when the temperature is above 4°C (39°F).
Note: If you use the air conditioning, the
fuel consumption of your vehicle will be
higher.
Air is directed through the evaporator
where it is cooled. Humidity is extracted
from the air to help keep the windows free
of mist. The resulting condensation is
directed to the outside of the vehicle and
it is therefore normal if you see a small
pool of water under your vehicle.
General information on controlling
the interior climate
Fully close all the windows. Warming the interior
Direct the air towards your feet. In cold or
humid weather conditions, direct some of
the air towards the windscreen and the
door windows.
Cooling the interior
Direct the air towards your face.

You can set the temperature between
15.5°C (60°F) and 29.5°C (85°F) in steps
of 0.5°C (1°F). In position LO, 15°C (59°F),
the system will switch to permanent
cooling. In position HI, 30°C (86°F), the
system will switch to permanent heating.
Note:
If either position LO or HI is selected,
the system will not regulate a stable
temperature.
Mono mode
In mono mode, the temperature settings
for both the driver ’s and passenger ’s side
are linked. If you adjust the temperature
using the rotary control on the driver ’s side,
the settings will be adjusted to the same
setting on the passenger ’s side. In mono
mode, MONO appears in the display.
To switch mono mode off
Select a temperature for the passenger ’s
side with the rotary control on the
passenger ’s side. Mono mode will switch
off and MONO disappears from the
display. The temperature for the driver ’s
side will remain unchanged. You can now
adjust the driver and passenger side
temperatures independently of each
another. The temperature settings for each
side are shown in the display. You can set
a temperature difference of up to 4°C
(8°F).
Note: If you set a temperature difference
of greater than 4°C (8°F), the temperature
on the other side will be adjusted so that
the difference remains 4°C (8°F). Note:
If you set one of the sides to HI or LO,
both sides will be set to HI or LO.
To switch mono mode back on To switch mono mode back on,
press the MONO button.
MONO reappears in the display

Checking the coolant level
WARNING
Do not allow the fluid to touch your
skin or eyes. If this happens, rinse the
affected areas immediately with
plenty of water and contact your doctor. CAUTION
Make sure that the level is between
the MIN and the MAX marks.
Note:
Coolant expands when it is hot. The
level may therefore extend beyond the MAX
mark.
If the level is at the MIN mark, top up
immediately.
Topping up WARNINGS
Only top up when the engine is cold.
If the engine is hot, wait 10 minutes
for the engine to cool down.
Do not remove the filler cap when
the engine is running.
Do not remove the filler cap when
the engine is hot. Wait for the engine
to cool down.
Undiluted coolant is flammable and
may ignite if spilt on a hot exhaust.
CAUTIONS
In an emergency, you can add just
water to the cooling system to reach
a vehicle service station. Have the
system checked by a properly trained
technician as soon as possible. CAUTIONS
Prolonged use of incorrect dilution of
the coolant can cause engine damage
from corrosion, overheating or
freezing. Unscrew the cap slowly. Any pressure will
escape slowly as you unscrew the cap.
CAUTION
Do not top up further than the MAX
mark.
Top up with a 50/50 mixture of coolant
and water using fluid that meets the Ford
specification. See Technical
Specifications (page 192).
BRAKE AND CLUTCH FLUID
CHECK
WARNINGS
Use of any fluid other than the
recommended brake fluid may
reduce brake efficiency and not meet
Ford's performance standards. Do not allow the fluid to touch your
skin or eyes. If this happens, rinse the
affected areas immediately with
plenty of water and contact your doctor. If the level is at the MIN mark, have
the system checked by a properly
trained technician as soon as
possible. Note:
Keep brake fluid clean and dry.
Contamination with dirt, water, petroleum
products or other materials may result in
brake system damage and possible failure.
Note: The brake and the clutch systems are
supplied from the same reservoir.
