Please read your entire Owner’s Manual carefully as you begin learning about your new vehicle and refer to the appropriate chapters when questions arise.
All information contained in this Quick Reference Guide was accurate at the time of duplication. We reserve the right to change features, operation and/or functionality of any vehicle specification at any time. Your Ford dealer is the best source for the most current information.

ESSENTIAL INFORMATION
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure.
The recommended specifications can be found on the Tire Label or Safety Compliance Certification Label located on the driver’s door jamb or the edge of the driver’s door. Each tire including the spare should be checked monthly and inflated to the recommended levels. Refer to your Owner’s Manual for more information.
