1Ford recommends using Motorcraft (Ford) DOT 4 LV High Performance Brake Fluid, orequivalent meeting WSS-M6C65-A2. Use of any fluid other than the recommended fluidmay cause degraded brake performance and not meet the Ford performance standards.Keep brake fluid clean and dry. Contamination with dirt, water, petroleum products orother materials may result in brake system damage and possible failure.2Approximate dry fill capacity. Actual amount may vary during fluid changes.3Automatic transmissions that require Motorcraft MERCON LV transmission fluid shouldonly use Motorcraft MERCON LV transmission fluid.
Use of any fluid other than the recommended fluid may cause transmission damage.
Change the automatic transmission fluid and filter at the correct service interval. SeeScheduled Maintenance (page 428).4See your authorized dealer for fluid level checking or filling.5Your engine has been designed to use Motorcraft engine oils or equivalent oils that meetFord's oil specification. It is also acceptable to use an engine oil of recommended viscositygrade that meets API SN requirements and displays the API certification mark for gasolineengines.6Do not use oils labeled as API SN unless the label also displays the API certification mark.These oils do not meet the requirements of your vehicle's engine and emissions system.7Do not use supplemental engine oil additives in your engine. They are unnecessary andcould lead to engine damage not covered by your Ford warranty.8Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.9 See the Warning below:

Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor®
Your vehicle is equipped with an IntelligentOil-Life Monitor that determines when youshould change the engine oil based on howyour vehicle is used. By using severalimportant factors in its calculations, themonitor helps reduce the cost of owningyour vehicle and reduces environmentalwaste at the same time.
This means you do not have to rememberto change the oil on a mileage-basedschedule. Your vehicle lets you know whenan oil change is due by displaying ENGINEOIL CHANGE DUE or OIL CHANGEREQUIRED in the information display.
The following table provides examples ofvehicle use and its impact on oil changeintervals. It is a guideline only. Actual oilchange intervals depend on several factorsand generally decrease with severity ofuse.
431Fusion (CC7) , enUSAScheduled Maintenance

At every oil change interval as indicated by the information display*
Inspect the tires, tire wear and measure the tread depth.
Inspect the wheels and related components for abnormal noise, wear, looseness ordrag.
* Do not exceed one year or 10000 miles (16000 kilometers) between service intervals.** Reset the Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor after engine oil and filter changes. See EngineOil Check (page 241).
