GENERAL MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
Why Maintain Your Vehicle?
Carefully following the maintenance schedule helps protect against major
repair expenses resulting from neglect or inadequate maintenance and
may help to increase the value of your vehicle when you sell or trade it.
Keep all receipts for completed maintenance with your vehicle.
We have established regular maintenance intervals for your vehicle based
upon rigorous testing. It is important that you have your vehicle serviced
at the proper times. These intervals serve two purposes; one is to
maintain the reliability of your vehicle and the second is to keep your
cost of owning your vehicle down.
It is your responsibility to have all scheduled maintenance performed and
to make sure that the materials used meet the specifications identified in
theCapacities and Specificationschapter of this owner’s manual.
Failure to perform scheduled maintenance invalidates warranty coverage
on parts affected by the lack of maintenance.
Protecting Your Investment
Maintenance is an investment that pays dividends in the form of
improved reliability, durability and resale value. To maintain the proper
performance of your vehicle and its emission control systems, make sure
you have scheduled maintenance performed at the designated intervals.
Your vehicle is very sophisticated and built with multiple, complex,
performance systems. Every manufacturer develops these systems using
different specifications and performance features. That is why it is
important to rely upon your dealership to properly diagnose and repair
your vehicle.
Ford Motor Company has recommended maintenance intervals for
various parts and component systems based upon engineering testing.
Ford Motor Company relies upon this testing to determine the most
appropriate mileage for replacement of oils and fluids to protect your
vehicle at the lowest overall cost to you and recommends against
maintenance schedules that deviate from the scheduled maintenance
information.
We strongly recommend the use of only genuine Ford, Motorcraft or
Ford-authorized re-manufactured replacement parts engineered for your
vehicle.

Additives and Chemicals
This owner’s manual and the Ford Workshop Manual list the
recommended additives and chemicals for your vehicle. We do not
recommend using chemicals or additives not approved by us as part of
your vehicle’s normal maintenance. Please consult your warranty
information.
Oils, Fluids and Flushing
In many cases, fluid discoloration is a normal operating characteristic
and, by itself, does not necessarily indicate a concern or that the fluid
needs to be changed. However, a qualified expert, such as the
factory-trained technicians at your dealership, should inspect discolored
fluids that also show signs of overheating or foreign material
contamination immediately.
Make sure to change your vehicle’s oils and fluids at the specified
intervals or in conjunction with a repair. Flushing is a viable way to
change fluid for many vehicle sub-systems during scheduled
maintenance. It is critical that systems are flushed only with new fluid
that is the same as that required to fill and operate the system or using a
Ford-approved flushing chemical.
Owner Checks and Services
Certain basic maintenance checks and inspections should be performed
monthly or at six month intervals.
Daily Owner Checks
EngineAir filter restriction gauge.
Engine oil level.
Engine coolant level.
Brake SystemAir brake reservoir automatic drain valve
operation.
Drain the air brake reservoir (manual valve).
TransmissionVisually check for fluid leakage.
Steering SystemPower steering fluid level.

Every Oil Change
ClutchLubricate the clutch release cross shaft and all
linkages.
Check the clutch fluid level.
Fuel SystemDrain the accumulated water or sediment from
the fuel tank(s).
Steering SystemLubricate the steering shaft(s), U-joints and
splines if equipped with grease fittings.
Lubricate the front axle spindle pins.
Lubricate the steering linkage when equipped
with grease fittings.
Lubricate the power steering gear output shaft.
*Coolant protection checks should be made just prior to the onset of
freezing weather, where applicable. If coolant is dirty or rusty in
appearance, the system should be drained, flushed and refilled with the
prescribed solution of cooling system fluid and distilled water. Use only
permanent type coolant that meets specifications as listed in your engine
operator’s manual. See the engine manufacturer’s operating guide for
supplemental corrosion inhibitor specifications.
Periodic Component/System Checks
The following are vehicle checks that should be made periodically either
by the owner or a qualified technician. It is recommended that
deficiencies be brought to the attention of your dealer or another
qualified service outlet as soon as possible so advice regarding the need
for service or replacement can be obtained.
Frequency Recommended Action
At every engine start up. Check ABS lamp operation.
After first 500 and 1000 miles (800
and 1600 km), then every 500 and
1000 mile (800 and 1600 km)
interval after tire removal or
replacement.Tighten the wheel mounting nuts
to the specified torque. See
Technical specificationsin the
Wheels and Tireschapter.
At least twice annually. Clean body and door drain holes.
As required. Clean windshield wiper blades.

Observation Maintenance Operation
Cleaning the wiper blades with a
clean cloth and mild detergent and
washing with a cleaner does not
restore a clean wipe.Replace wiper blades.
Noisy or difficult to operate. Lubricate body lock cylinders.
Headlamp beams in wrong position
when vehicle operating loaded.Check headlamp alignment.
Windshield washers do not spray
when operated.Check windshield washer fluid
level. Add fluid if required.
1During maintenance and repair, protect the fuel tube and the hose
assemblies, power steering lines, and brake lines from external heat,
acids and abrasions that could damage them.
2Check for (free) linkage action and make sure that (return) spring force
is adequate to maintain pedal free play.
3Adjust, repair or replace, as required, with the same or equivalent parts.
Emissions Control System
WARNING:Because of high engine compartment and exhaust
system temperatures resulting from emissions equipment, do not
park, idle or operate your vehicle in dry grass or other dry ground
cover where the possibility of ground fire exists.
To make sure the emissions control systems operate effectively, you
should have the services listed in the maintenance schedule performed at
the specified time and mileage intervals. You should avoid running out of
fuel or turning off the ignition while the vehicle is in motion, especially
at high speeds.
Do not make unauthorized modifications to the engine or vehicle.
Modifications causing increased amounts of unburned fuel to reach the
exhaust system can significantly increase the temperature of the engine
compartment and the exhaust system.
Avoid driving your vehicle if it does not operate properly. If the engine
diesels (more than five seconds of engine run-on after shut-off), misfires,
surges, stalls or backfires, see your dealer. Be alert for fluid leakage, odor,
smoke, loss of oil pressure, or charge indicator or over temperature warning.
