Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Note:Wet or winter driving conditions withice, snow or salty road mist can causeinconsistent and unexpected wiping orsmearing.
In these conditions, you can do thefollowing to help keep your windshieldclear:
•Lower the sensitivity of the autowipersto reduce the amount of smearing.
•Switch to normal or high-speed wipe.
•Switch the autowipers off.
Highest sensitivityA
OnB
Lowest sensitivityC
The autowipers feature uses a rain sensor.You will find it in the area around theinterior mirror. The rain sensor monitorsthe amount of moisture on the windshieldand automatically turns on the wipers. Itwill adjust the wiper speed by the amountof moisture that the sensor detects on thewindshield.
Note:This autowiper feature isautomatically set to on and remains on untilyou switch it off in the information display.You can also switch the feature back on atany time. See (page 86).
Use the rotary control to adjust thesensitivity of the rain sensor. Set thecontrol to low sensitivity, and the wiperswill turn on when the rain sensor detectsa large amount of moisture on thewindshield. Set the control to highsensitivity, and the wipers will turn on whenthe rain sensor detects a small amount ofmoisture on the windshield.
Note:When you set the wiper system tointermittent wipe and the autowiper systemis on, the autowiper sensitivity settingadjusts the wiper speed according to themoisture on the windshield only. Use thewiper lever to wipe the windshieldon-demand.
Keep the outside of the windshield clean.The rain sensor is very sensitive. If the areaaround the mirror is dirty, then the wipersmay operate if dirt, mist or insects hit thewindshield.
WINDSHIELD WASHERS
Note:Do not operate the washers whenthe washer reservoir is empty. This maycause the washer pump to overheat.
To operate the washers and spray thewindshield, pull the lever toward you.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine GENERAL INFORMATION
Condensation in Lamp Assemblies
Exterior lamps have vents toaccommodate normal changes in airpressure.
Condensation can be a natural by-productof this design. When moist air enters thelamp assembly through the vents, there isa possibility that condensation can occurwhen the temperature is cold. Whennormal condensation occurs, a fine mistcan form on the interior of the lens. Thefine mist eventually clears and exitsthrough the vents during normal operation.
Clearing time may take as long as 48 hoursunder dry weather conditions.
Examples of acceptable condensation are:
•The presence of a fine mist (no streaks,drip marks or large droplets).
•A fine mist covers less than 50% of thelens.
Examples of unacceptable condensationare:
•A water puddle inside the lamp.
•Streaks, drip marks or large dropletspresent on the interior of the lens.
If you see any unacceptable condensation,have your vehicle checked by an authorizeddealer.

Check and replace wiper bladesregularly to ensure the camerasensor has a clear view through thewindscreen. Replacement wiper bladesmust be the correct length.
Note:Keep the windscreen free fromobstructions such as bird droppings, insectsand snow or ice.
Note:Reflective road signs may bedetected as oncoming traffic and theheadlamps will be switched to low beam.
Note:Always fit Ford Original Parts whenreplacing headlamp bulbs. Other bulbs mayreduce system performance.
The system will automatically switch onhigh beams if it is dark enough and no othertraffic is present. If it detects anapproaching vehicle’s headlamps or taillamps, or street lighting ahead the systemwill switch off high beam before it candistract other road users. Low beam willremain on.
A camera sensor is centrally mountedbehind the windshield of your vehicle. Thismonitors conditions continuously to decidewhen to switch the high beams on and off.
Once the system is active the high beamwill switch on if:
•It is dark enough to require the use ofhigh beams and
•there is no traffic or street lightingahead and
•vehicle speed is greater than 25 mph(40 km/h).
The high beam will switch off if:
•The ambient light is high enough thathigh beam is not required.
•An approaching vehicle's headlampsor tail lamps are detected.
•Street lighting is detected.
•Vehicle speed falls below 19 mph(30 km/h).
•The camera sensor is too hot orbecomes blocked.
Activating the System
Switch the system on using the informationdisplay. See Information Displays (page86). Turn the switch to the autolampsposition. See Autolamps (page 64).
The indicator will illuminate to confirmwhen the system is ready to assist.

Shows the temperature of the enginecoolant. At normal operating temperature,the needle will remain in the center section.If the needle enters the red section, theengine is overheating. Stop the engine,switch the ignition off and determine thecause once the engine has cooled down.
Note:Do not restart the engine until thecause of overheating has been resolved.
WARNING
Never remove the coolant reservoircap while the engine is running or hot.
Fuel Gauge
Note:The fuel gauge may vary slightlywhen your vehicle is moving or on a gradient.
Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge willindicate approximately how much fuel isleft in the fuel tank. The arrow adjacent tothe fuel pump symbol indicates on whichside of your vehicle the fuel filler door islocated.
The needle should move toward F whenyou refuel your vehicle. If the needle pointsto E after adding fuel, this indicates yourvehicle needs service soon.
After refueling some variability in needleposition is normal:
•It may take a short time for the needleto reach F after leaving the gas station.This is normal and depends upon theslope of pavement at the gas station.
•The fuel amount dispensed into thetank is a little less or more than thegauge indicated. This is normal anddepends upon the slope of pavementat the gas station.
•If the gas station nozzle shuts offbefore the tank is full, try a differentgas pump nozzle.
Low Fuel Reminder
A low fuel reminder triggers when the fuelgauge needle is at 1/16th.
