1 Ford recommends using Motorcraft (Ford) DOT 4 LV High Performance Motor Vehicle
Brake Fluid or equivalent meeting WSS-M6C65-A2. Use of any fluid other than \
the
recommended fluid may cause degraded brake performance and not meet the Ford
performance standards. Keep brake fluid clean and dry. Contamination with dirt, water,
petroleum products or other materials may result in brake system damage and possible
failure.
2 Approximate dry fill capacity. Actual amount may vary during fluid changes.
3 Automatic transmissions that require Motorcraft MERCON LV transmission fluid should
only 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 servic\
e interval. See
Scheduled Maintenance (page 412).
4 The design of your engine allows for the use of Motorcraft engine oils o\
r equivalent oils
that meet Ford specifications. It is also acceptable to use an engine oi\
l of recommended
viscosity grade that meets API SN requirements and displays the API cert\
ification mark
for gasoline engines.
5 Do not use supplemental engine oil additives, cleaners or other engine t\
reatments. They
are unnecessary and could lead to engine damage not covered by Ford warr\
anty.
6 Do not use API S category oils labeled as SN, SM, SL or lower category u\
nless the label
also displays the API certification mark. These oils do not meet the req\
uirements of the
engine and emission system.
7 You can use 5W-20 oil if 0W-20 oil is not available.
8 Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.
