back system. The oil reading on the dipstick will be influenced by oil
draining back into the sump from the cylinder head if the oil level is
checked without waiting 15 minutes after shutdown.

securely latched in first gear.

5. Locate and carefully remove the engine oil level dipstick.
6. Wipe the dipstick clean. Insert the dipstick fully, then remove it again.
A. MIN
B. MAX
•If the oil level is between the MIN and MAX marks, the oil level is
acceptable. DO NOT ADD OIL.
•If the oil level is below the MIN mark, add enough oil to raise the level
within the MIN and MAX marks
•The maximum oil level is between the upper hash mark and the MAX
mark. Oil levels above this range may cause engine damage. Some oil
must be removed from the engine by an authorized dealer.
7. Put the dipstick back in and make sure it is fully seated.
ENGINE COOLANT
The concentration and level of engine coolant should be checked at the
mileage intervals listed in thescheduled maintenance information.
Note:Make sure that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks on
the engine coolant reservoirs.
Note:For best results, coolant concentration should be tested with a
refractometer such as Rotunda tool 300-ROB75240E available from your
dealer. Ford does not recommend the use of hydrometers or coolant test
strips for measuring coolant concentrations.
Note:Coolant expands when it is hot. The level may extend beyond the
MAX mark. If the level is at the MIN mark, add coolant immediately.
Be sure to read and understandPrecautionsin yourOwner’s Manual.
If the coolant has not been checked at the recommended interval, the
engine or intercooler coolant reservoir may become low or empty. If the
reservoir is low or empty, add coolant to the reservoir. Refer toAdding
coolantin this chapter.
Note:Automotive fluids are not interchangeable; do not use engine
coolant/antifreeze or windshield washer fluid outside of its specified
function and vehicle location. For more information about engine coolant,
see theMaintenancechapter of theOwner’s Manual.

WARRANTY COVERAGE
The Focus ST carries the same warranty as other Ford Focus models.
This information is covered in its entirety in the warranty information.
Warranty service for the Focus ST or any ST vehicle can be obtained at
any Ford dealer nationwide.
Ford Global Performance does not recommend modifying or racing ST,
SVT or RS vehicles, as they are designed and built to be driven as
delivered from the factory. The warranty information discusses vehicle
usage and the installation of aftermarket parts and their effect on
warranty coverage.
In the event the vehicle is intended for track use, and the loss of
warranty coverage is not of concern, the following vehicle durability
actions are required:
•Perform multi-point inspection and the maintenance outlined in the
150,000 mile (240,000 kilometer) normal maintenance schedule of the
scheduled maintenance before and after track use. Refer to the vehicle
service manual for removal and installation procedures.
•Replace with Genuine Ford and Motorcraftservice parts as needed.
These actions may not necessarily protect your vehicle from damage in
competition conditions. Subjecting your vehicle to competition conditions
even with this recommended action may render repairs non-reimbursable
under the warranty.
