ENGINE OIL DIPSTICK

ENGINE OIL CHECK
Note: Check the level before starting
the engine.
Note: Make sure that the level is
between the MIN and the MAX marks.
1. Make sure that your vehicle is on level ground.
2. Turn the engine off and wait 10 minutes for the oil to drain into the
oil pan.
3. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean, lint-free cloth.
Replace the dipstick and remove
it again to check the oil level.
If the level is at the MIN mark, add oil
immediately.
Adding Engine Oil
Note: Do not remove the filler cap
when the engine is running. Note:
Do not add oil further than the
MAX mark. Oil levels above the MAX
mark may cause engine damage. Only use oils certified for gasoline
engines by the American Petroleum
Institute (API). An oil with this
trademark symbol conforms to the
current engine and emission system
protection standards and fuel
economy requirements of the
International Lubricants Specification
Advisory Council (ILSAC), comprised
of U.S. and Japanese automobile
manufacturers.
1. Remove the filler cap.
2.
Add engine oil that meets the Ford
specifications. See Capacities
and Specifications (page 330).
3. Replace the filler cap. Turn it until you feel a strong resistance.

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 equipped with an
information display, which indicates
the proper oil change interval. This
interval may be up to one year or
10000 miles (16000 kilometers).
When ENGINE OIL CHANGE DUE or
OIL CHANGE REQUIRED appears in
the information display, it is time for
an oil change. Make sure you perform
the oil change within two weeks or
500 miles (800 kilometers) of the
ENGINE OIL CHANGE DUE
or OIL
CHANGE REQUIRED message
appearing. Make sure you reset the oil
monitoring system after each oil
change. See Engine Oil Check (page
280
).
If your information display resets
prematurely, becomes inoperative or
the vehicle battery becomes
discharged or disconnected, the oil
monitoring system resets to 100% oil
life. You should change your engine
oil one year or 10000 miles (16000
kilometers) from the previous oil
change. Never exceed one year or
10000 miles (16000 kilometers)
between oil change 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.
