Roadside Emergencies
Safety Practices
WARNINGS
If your vehicle is stuck in snow,
mud, sand, etc., do not rapidly
spin the tires; spinning the tires can
tear the tire and cause an explosion.
A tire can explode in as little as three
to five seconds. Do not spin the wheels at over
35 mph (56 km/h). The tires may
fail and injure a passenger or
bystander. Driving habits have a great deal to do
with your tire mileage and safety.
•
Observe posted speed limits
• Avoid fast starts, stops and turns
• Avoid potholes and objects on the
road
• Do not run over curbs or hit the tire
against a curb when parking
Highway Hazards
No matter how carefully you drive
there ’s always the possibility that you
may eventually have a flat tire on the
highway. Drive slowly to the closest
safe area out of traffic. This may
further damage the flat tire, but your
safety is more important. If you feel a sudden vibration or ride
disturbance while driving, or you
suspect your tire or vehicle has been
damaged, immediately reduce your
speed. Drive with caution until you can
safely pull off the road. Stop and
inspect the tires for damage. If a tire
is under-inflated or damaged, deflate
it, remove wheel and replace it with
your spare tire and wheel. If you
cannot detect a cause, have the
vehicle towed to the nearest repair
facility or tire dealer to have the
vehicle inspected.
Tire and Wheel Alignment
A bad jolt from hitting a curb or
pothole can cause the front end of
your vehicle to become misaligned or
cause damage to your tires. If your
vehicle seems to pull to one side when
you’re driving, the wheels may be out
of alignment. Have an authorized
dealer check the wheel alignment
periodically.
Wheel misalignment in the front or
the rear can cause uneven and rapid
treadwear of your tires and should be
corrected by an authorized dealer.
Front-wheel drive vehicles and those
with an independent rear suspension
(if equipped) may require alignment
of all four wheels.
The tires should also be balanced
periodically. An unbalanced tire and
wheel assembly may result in irregular
tire wear.

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 the
Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor® system,
which displays a message in the
information display at 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
Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor® after
each oil change. See Engine Oil
Check (page 267).
If your information display resets
prematurely or becomes inoperative,
you should perform the oil change
interval at six months or 5000 miles
(8000 kilometers) from your last 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.

Scheduled Maintenance
Be sure to ask your dealership service
advisor or technician about the
multi-point vehicle inspection. It is a
comprehensive way to perform a
thorough inspection of your vehicle.
Your checklist gives you immediate
feedback on the overall condition of
your vehicle.
Normal Scheduled
Maintenance
Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor®
Your vehicle is equipped with an
Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor that
determines when you should change
the engine oil based on how your
vehicle is used. By using several
important factors in its calculations,
the monitor helps reduce the cost of
owning your vehicle and reduces
environmental waste at the same
time.
This means you do not have to
remember to change the oil on a
mileage-based schedule. Your vehicle
lets you know when an oil change is
due by displaying ENGINE OIL
CHANGE DUE or OIL CHANGE
REQUIRED in the information display.
The following table provides
examples of vehicle use and its
impact on oil change intervals. It is a
guideline only. Actual oil change
intervals depend on several factors
and generally decrease with severity
of use. When to expect the OIL CHANGE REQUIRED message
