Oil pressure gauge
Indicates engine oil pressure.
During normal driving the indicated oil pressure will vary with engine speed,
the pressure rising as engine speed rises and dropping as engine speed drops.
If the engine oil pressure drops below the normal range, the oil pressure
gauge pointer will drop into the red section of the gauge scale and the
engine oil pressure warning lamp in the main instrument cluster will
illuminate. Stop the vehicle as soon as safely possible and switch off the
engine immediately. Check the oil level and add oil if needed.

MANUAL 6-SPEED TRANSMISSION OPERATION
Using the Clutch
Note:During each shift, the clutch pedal must be fully pressed to the
floor and the accelerator fully released. Failure to follow this may cause
increased shift efforts, prematurely wear transmission components, or
cause gear clash or damage to the transmission. Make sure the floor mat
is properly positioned so it does not interfere with the full extension of
the clutch pedal.
Note:If you attempt to shift when the drive wheels are spinning with a
loss of traction, it is possible to cause damage to the transmission. Do
not attempt to shift when the drive wheels do not have traction.
Note:Do not drive with your foot resting on the clutch pedal or use the
clutch pedal to hold your vehicle at a standstill while waiting on a hill.
These actions will reduce the life of the clutch and could nullify a clutch
warranty claim.
Your vehicle is equipped with a twin disc clutch. Due to the high
performance of the powertrain, a certain amount of noise from the
transmission is normal.
The manual transmission has a starter interlock that prevents cranking
the engine unless the clutch pedal is fully pressed.
To start the vehicle:
1. Make sure the parking brake is fully set.
2. Press the clutch pedal to the floor, then put the transmission selector
lever in positionN.
3. Start the engine, then press the brake pedal and release the parking
brake.
4. Move the transmission selector lever to position1, then slowly release
the clutch pedal while slowly pressing on the accelerator.

5. To engage reverse, lift up on the reverse lockout ring located under
the shift knob and move the transmission selector lever fully to the left
and forward.
Recommended Shift Speeds for Maximum Fuel Economy
When accelerating, upshift according to the following chart:
Shift from:
1 - 2 12 mph (19 km/h)
2 - 3 23 mph (37 km/h)
3 - 4 32 mph (51 km/h)
4 - 5 41 mph (66 km/h)
5 - 6 42 mph (67 km/h)
Operating at High Speeds
Your ST vehicle is capable of high speeds and is equipped with tires
rated for the vehicle’s maximum speed. Remember to drive safely, obey
all traffic laws and only operate your ST vehicle at high speeds at
locations equipped and designed to do so safely. Before operating your
vehicle at high speeds:
•Verify correct tire pressures (seeTiresin this supplement).
•Inspect wheels and tires for wear and damage. Replace any damaged
wheels or tires.
•Do not operate your vehicle at high speeds with more than two
passengers or while carrying cargo.
ADVANCETRAC® STABILITY ENHANCEMENT SYSTEM
The AdvanceTrac® system includes traction control and electronic
stability control. See theTraction ControlandStability Control
chapters of theOwner’s Manualfor more information
AdvanceTrac® provides three
modes of operation specially
calibrated for the Focus ST. These
are controlled through the
AdvanceTrac® button on the center
console.

3. Set the parking brake and make sure the transmission selector lever is
securely latched in first gear.
4. Open the hood. Protect yourself from engine heat.
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.

and ISO 4925 Class 6. Use of any fluid other than the recommended fluid may cause brake system
damage.2Your engine has been designed to use engine oil that meets Ford specification or an equivalent
engine oil of the recommended viscosity grade that displays the API Certification Mark for gasoline
engines. Do not use supplemental engine oil additives, cleaners or other engine treatments. They are
unnecessary and could lead to engine damage that is not covered by Ford warranty.3Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.
