GENERAL INFORMATION ON RADIO FREQUENCIES
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules and with Industry
Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Note:Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment. The termICbefore the radio certification number only
signifies that Industry Canada technical specifications were met.
The typical operating range for your transmitter is approximately 33 feet
(10 meters). Vehicles with the remote start feature will have a greater
range. A decrease in operating range could be caused by:
•weather conditions
•nearby radio towers
•structures around your vehicle
•other vehicles parked next to your vehicle.
The radio frequency used by your remote control can also be used by
other short-distance radio transmissions, for example amateur radios,
medical equipment, wireless headphones, remote controls and alarm
systems. If the frequencies are jammed, you will not be able to use your
remote control. You can lock and unlock the doors with the key.
Note:Make sure your vehicle is locked before leaving it unattended.
Note:If you are in range, the remote control will operate if you press
any button unintentionally.
Intelligent Access
The system uses a radio frequency signal to communicate with your
vehicle and authorize your vehicle to unlock when one of the following
conditions is met:
•You touch the inside of the front exterior door handle.
•You press the luggage compartment button.
•You press a button on the transmitter.
If excessive radio frequency interference is present in the area or if the
transmitter battery is low, it may be necessary to mechanically unlock
your door. You can use the mechanical key blade in your intelligent
access key to open the driver door in this situation. Refer toRemote
Controlin this chapter for more information on the location and use of
the mechanical key blade.

COOLANT
Checking the Coolant
When the Electric Powertrain Assembly is cold, check the level of the
coolant in the reservoir at the intervals listed in thescheduled
maintenance information.
Note:Make sure that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks on
the coolant reservoir.
Note:Coolant expands when it is hot. The level may extend beyond the
MAX mark.
Note:If the coolant has not been checked at the recommended interval,
the coolant reservoir may become low or empty. If the level is at the MIN
mark, below the MIN mark, or empty, add prediluted coolant to the
reservoir. SeeAdding coolantin this chapter.
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:It is very important to use prediluted coolant meeting the Ford
specification in order to avoid plugging the small coolant passageways.
Use of concentrated coolant and water may cause coolant passageway
plugging and void the warranty. See the technical specifications chart in
theCapacities and Specificationschapter.
Note:Automotive fluids are not interchangeable; do not use
coolant/antifreeze or windshield washer fluid outside of its specified
function and vehicle location.
Adding Coolant
WARNING:Do not add coolant when the Electric Powertrain
Assembly is hot. Steam and scalding liquids released from a hot
cooling system can burn you badly. Also, you can be burned if you spill
coolant on hot motor parts.
WARNING:Do not put coolant in the windshield washer fluid
container. If sprayed on the windshield, coolant could make it
difficult to see through the windshield.

Unscrew the cap slowly. Any pressure will escape as you unscrew the
cap.
Add prediluted coolant meeting the Ford specification. See the technical
specifications chart in theCapacities and Specificationschapter for
more information.
Whenever coolant has been added, the coolant level in the coolant
reservoir should be checked the next few times you drive the vehicle.
If necessary, add enough prediluted coolant to bring the coolant level to
the proper level.
Recycled Coolant
Ford Motor Company does not recommend the use of recycled coolant
since a Ford-approved recycling process is not yet available.
Used coolant should be disposed of in an appropriate manner. Follow
your community’s regulations and standards for recycling and disposing
of automotive fluids.
Severe Climates
If you drive in extremely cold climates:
Note:It may be necessary to have an authorized Ford dealer increase
the coolant concentration above 50%.
Note:A coolant concentration of 60% will provide improved freeze point
protection. Increased coolant concentrations above 60% will decrease the
overheat protection characteristics of the coolant and may cause damage.
If you drive in extremely hot climates:
Note:It may be necessary to have an authorized Ford dealer decrease
the coolant concentration to 40%.
Note:A coolant concentration of 40% will provide improved overheat
protection. Decreased coolant concentrations below 40% will decrease
the corrosion/freeze protection characteristics of the coolant and may
cause damage.
Vehicles driven year-round in non-extreme climates should use
prediluted coolant meeting the Ford specification for optimum cooling
system protection.

Only use a washer fluid that meets Ford specifications. Do not use any
special washer fluid such as windshield water repellent type fluid or bug
wash. They may cause squeaking, chatter noise, streaking and smearing.
SeeTechnical Specificationsin theCapacities and Specifications
chapter.
State or local regulations on volatile organic compounds may restrict
the use of methanol, a common windshield washer antifreeze additive.
Washer fluids containing non-methanol antifreeze agents should be used
only if they provide cold weather protection without damaging the
vehicle’s paint finish, wiper blades or washer system.
LOW-VOLTAGE BATTERY
WARNING:Batteries normally produce explosive gases which
can cause personal injury. Therefore, do not allow flames, sparks
or lighted substances to come near the battery. When working near the
battery, always shield your face and protect your eyes. Always provide
proper ventilation.
WARNING:When lifting a plastic-cased battery, excessive
pressure on the end walls could cause acid to flow through the
vent caps, resulting in personal injury and/or damage to the vehicle or
battery. Lift the battery with a battery carrier or with your hands on
opposite corners.
WARNING:Keep batteries out of reach of children. Batteries
contain sulfuric acid. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing.
Shield your eyes when working near the battery to protect against
possible splashing of acid solution. In case of acid contact with skin or
eyes, flush immediately with water for a minimum of 15 minutes and
get prompt medical attention. If acid is swallowed, call a physician
immediately.
WARNING:Battery posts, terminals and related accessories
contain lead and lead compounds. Wash hands after handling.
Your vehicle is equipped with a Motorcraft® maintenance-free battery
which normally does not require additional water during its life of
service.

Be sure to check the sealant
compound’s use-by date regularly.
The use-by date is on the lower
right hand corner of the label
located on the sealant canister.
The sealant canister should be replaced after four years.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Wheel Lug Nut Torque Specifications
WARNING:When a wheel is installed, always remove any
corrosion, dirt or foreign materials present on the mounting
surfaces of the wheel or the surface of the wheel hub, brake drum or
brake disc that contacts the wheel. Make sure that any fasteners that
attach the rotor to the hub are secured so they do not interfere with
the mounting surfaces of the wheel. Installing wheels without correct
metal-to-metal contact at the wheel mounting surfaces can cause the
wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to come off while the vehicle is in
motion, resulting in loss of control.
Retighten the lug nuts to the specified torque within 100 miles
(160 kilometers) after any wheel disturbance (such as tire rotation,
changing a flat tire, wheel removal).

installation. Remove any visible
corrosion or loose particles.
