WARNING LIGHTS AND CHIMES
Warning lights and gauges can alert you to a vehicle condition that may
become serious enough to cause extensive repairs. A warning light may
illuminate when a problem exists with one of your vehicle’s functions.
Many lights will illuminate when you start your vehicle to make sure the
bulbs work. If any light remains on after starting the vehicle, refer to the
respective system warning light for additional information.
Note:Some warning lights are
reconfigurable telltale (RTT)
indicator lights and will illuminate in
the message center. These lights
function the same as the other
warning lights.
Charging system (RTT):
Illuminates when the battery is not
charging properly. If it stays on
while the engine is 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 (RTT):
Illuminates when the oil pressure
falls below the normal range, refer

Radio reception factors:
There are three factors that can affect radio reception:
•Distance/strength: The further you travel from an FM station, the
weaker the signal and the weaker the reception.
•Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, power lines, electric fences,
traffic lights and thunderstorms can interfere with your reception.
•Station overload: When you pass a broadcast tower, a stronger signal
may overtake a weaker one and play while the weak station frequency
is displayed.
CD/CD player care
Do:
•Handle discs by their edges only.
(Never touch the playing
surface).
•Inspect discs before playing.
•Clean only with an approved CD
cleaner.
•Wipe discs from the center out.
Don’t:
•Expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources for extended periods
of time.
•Clean using a circular motion.

(12 cm) audio compact discs only. Due to technical

FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT DVD SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING:Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle
control, accident and injury. Ford strongly recommends that
drivers use extreme caution when using any device or feature that may
take their focus off the road. Your primary responsibility is the safe
operation of the vehicle. We recommend against the use of any
handheld device while driving and that you comply with all applicable
laws.
Your vehicle may be equipped with a Family Entertainment System
(FES) which allows you to listen to audio CDs, MP3 discs, watch DVDs
and to plug in and play a variety of standard video game systems. The
headrest-mounted DVD players are capable of playing standard DVDs,
CDs, MP3s and are compatible with Video CD, HDCD, Hybrid SACD
(play CD layer only), SVCD, DVD-video, JPEGs, up to MPEG-4 files, MP3
files and WMA media. Please review this material to become familiar with
the FES features and controls as well as the very important safety
information.
Quick start
Your family entertainment system includes two headrest-mounted DVD
player/screens, two sets of wireless infrared (IR) headphones and a
wireless infrared (IR) remote control capable of controlling either DVD
player. Both DVD players are capable of playing their own independent
media, or they can both watch the same media.
When in single play mode, the headrest video sources that have been
selected at each headrest will play through the speakers, but no audio is
available through the headphones.
To play a DVD
1. Insert a DVD into the system, label side facing the rear passengers.
The disc slot indicator lights will illuminate. The system will
automatically load the disc and it will begin to play. LOADING will
