ESSENTIAL TOWING CHECKS
Follow these guidelines for safe towing:
•Do not tow a trailer until your vehicle has been driven at least
1000 miles (1600 kilometers).
•Consult your local motor vehicle laws for towing a trailer.
•See the instructions included with towing accessories for the proper
installation and adjustment specifications.
•Service your vehicle more frequently if you tow a trailer. See your
scheduled maintenance information.
•If you use a rental trailer, follow the instructions the rental agency
gives you.

How Your Vehicle Differs from Other Vehicles
SUVs, vans and trucks can differ
from some other vehicles in a few
noticeable ways. Your vehicle may
be:
•Higher – to allow higher load
carrying capacity and to allow it
to travel over rough terrain
without getting hung up or
damaging underbody
components.
•Shorter – to give it the capability
to approach inclines and drive
over the crest of a hill without
getting hung up or damaging
underbody components. All other
things held equal, a shorter
wheelbase may make your vehicle quicker to respond to steering
inputs than a vehicle with a longer wheelbase.
•Narrower – to provide greater
maneuverability in tight spaces,
particularly in off-road use.
As a result of the above dimensional
differences, SUVs, vans and trucks
often will have a higher center of
gravity and a greater difference in
center of gravity between the
loaded and unloaded condition.
These differences that make your
vehicle so versatile also make it
handle differently than an ordinary
passenger car.

1Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.2Use of synthetic or synthetic blend motor oil is not mandatory. Engine oil need only meet the requirements
of Ford specification WSS-M2C945-A and display the API Certification mark.
Your engine has been designed to be used with Ford engine oil, which gives a fuel economy benefit while
maintaining the durability of your engine. Using oils other than the one specified can result in longer engine
cranking periods, reduced engine performance, reduced fuel economy and increased emission levels.
