as an admin or MyKey driver depending on the settings of the actual key
used to start the vehicle.

ADMIN KEYS PROGRAMMED that is displayed in the MyKey system

Tire Replacement Requirements
WARNING:Only use replacement tires and wheels that are the
same size, load index, speed rating and type (such as P-metric
versus LT-metric or all-season versus all-terrain) as those originally
provided by Ford. The recommended tire and wheel size may be found
on either the Safety Compliance Certification Label (affixed to either
the door hinge pillar, door-latch post, or the door edge that meets the
door-latch post, next to the driver’s seating position), or the Tire Label
which is located on the B-Pillar or edge of the driver’s door. If this
information is not found on these labels then you should contact your
authorized dealer as soon as possible. Use of any tire or wheel not
recommended by Ford can affect the safety and performance of your
vehicle, which could result in an increased risk of loss of vehicle
control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and death. Additionally the use
of non-recommended tires and wheels could cause steering, suspension,
axle or transfer case/power transfer unit failure. If you have questions
regarding tire replacement, contact your authorized dealer as soon as
possible.

SNOW TIRES
WARNING:Snow tires must be the same size, load index, speed
rating as those originally provided by Ford. Use of any tire or
wheel not recommended by Ford can affect the safety and performance
of your vehicle, which could result in an increased risk of loss of vehicle
control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and death. Additionally, the use
of non-recommended tires and wheels could cause steering, suspension,
axle or transfer case/power transfer unit failure.
Snow chains have not been approved for use on your vehicle.
SUMMER TIRES (IF EQUIPPED)
Summer tires provide superior performance on wet and dry roads.
Summer tires do not have the Mud and Snow (M+S or M/S) tire traction
rating on the tire side wall. Since summer tires do not have the same
traction performance as All-season or Snow tires, Ford does not
recommend using summer tires when temperatures drop to
approximately 40°F (5°C) or below (depending on tire wear and
environmental conditions) or in snow/ice conditions. Like any tire,
summer tire performance is affected by tire wear and environmental
conditions. If you must drive in those conditions, Ford recommends
using Mud and Snow (M+S, M/S), All-season or Snow tires.
VEHICLE LOADING
This section will guide you in the proper loading of your vehicle to keep
your loaded vehicle weight within its design rating capability. Properly
loading your vehicle will provide maximum return of vehicle design
performance. Before loading your vehicle, familiarize yourself with the
following terms for determining your vehicle’s weight ratings from the
vehicle’s Tire Label or Safety Compliance Certification Label:
Base Curb Weight– is the weight of the vehicle including full fluids
and all standard equipment. It does not include passengers, cargo, or
optional equipment.
