DATA RECORDING
Service Data Recording
Service data recorders in your vehicle
are capable of collecting and storing
diagnostic information about your
vehicle. This potentially includes
information about the performance
or status of various systems and
modules in the vehicle, such as engine,
throttle, steering or brake systems. In
order to properly diagnose and service
your vehicle, Ford Motor Company,
Ford of Canada, and service and repair
facilities may access or share among
them vehicle diagnostic information
received through a direct connection
to your vehicle when diagnosing or
servicing your vehicle. Additionally,
when your vehicle is in for service or
repair, Ford Motor Company, Ford of
Canada, and service and repair
facilities may access or share among
them data for vehicle improvement
purposes. For U.S. only (if equipped),
if you choose to use the SYNC Vehicle

Introduction

GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNINGS
Extended idling at high engine
speeds can produce very high
temperatures in the engine and
exhaust system, creating the risk of
fire or other damage.
Do not park, idle or drive your
vehicle on dry grass or other dry
ground cover. The emission system
heats up the engine compartment and
exhaust system, creating the risk of
fire.
Do not start the engine in a
closed garage or in other
enclosed areas. Exhaust fumes can
be toxic. Always open the garage door
before you start the engine.
If you smell exhaust fumes inside
your vehicle, have your vehicle
checked by an authorized dealer
immediately. Do not drive your vehicle
if you smell exhaust fumes.
If you disconnect the battery, your
vehicle may exhibit some unusual
driving characteristics for
approximately 5 miles (8 kilometers)
after you reconnect it. This is because
the engine management system must
realign itself with the engine. You can
disregard any unusual driving
characteristics during this period.
The powertrain control system meets
all Canadian interference-causing
equipment standard requirements
regulating the impulse electrical field
or radio noise. When you start the engine, avoid
pressing the accelerator pedal before
and during operation. Only use the
accelerator pedal when you have
difficulty starting the engine.
KEYLESS STARTING
Note:
The keyless starting system may
not function if the key is close to metal
objects or electronic devices such as
cellular phones.
Note: A valid key must be located
inside your vehicle to switch the ignition
on and start the engine.

Starting and Stopping the Engine

EMISSION CONTROL
SYSTEM
WARNINGS
Do not park, idle, or drive your
vehicle in dry grass or other dry
ground cover. The emission system
heats up the engine compartment and
exhaust system, which can start a fire.
Exhaust leaks may result in entry
of harmful and potentially lethal
fumes into the passenger
compartment. If you smell exhaust
fumes inside your vehicle, have your
dealer inspect your vehicle
immediately. Do not drive if you smell
exhaust fumes.
Your vehicle is equipped with various
emission control components and a
catalytic converter that will enable
your vehicle to comply with applicable
exhaust emission standards. To make
sure that the catalytic converter and
other emission control components
continue to work properly:
To make sure that the catalytic
converter and other emission control
components continue to work
properly:
• Use only the specified fuel listed.
• Avoid running out of fuel.
• Do not turn off the ignition while your vehicle is moving, especially
at high speeds.
• Have the items listed in scheduled maintenance information
performed according to the
specified schedule. The scheduled maintenance items
listed in scheduled maintenance
information are essential to the life
and performance of your vehicle and
to its emissions system.
If you use parts other than Ford,
Motorcraft or Ford-authorized parts
for maintenance replacements, or for
service of components affecting
emission control, such non-Ford parts
should be the equivalent to genuine
Ford Motor Company parts in
performance and durability.
Illumination of the service engine soon
indicator, charging system warning
light or the temperature warning light,
fluid leaks, strange odors, smoke or
loss of engine power could indicate
that the emission control system is
not working properly.
An improperly operating or damaged
exhaust system may allow exhaust to
enter the vehicle. Have a damaged or
improperly operating exhaust system
inspected and repaired immediately.
Do not make any unauthorized
changes to your vehicle or engine. By
law, vehicle owners and anyone who
manufactures, repairs, services, sells,
leases, trades vehicles, or supervises
a fleet of vehicles are not permitted
to intentionally remove an emission
control device or prevent it from
working. Information about your
vehicle’s emission system is on the
Vehicle Emission Control Information
Decal located on or near the engine.
This decal also lists engine
displacement

Power Distribution Box
WARNINGS
Always disconnect the battery
before servicing high-current
fuses.
To reduce risk of electrical shock,
always replace the cover to the
power distribution box before
reconnecting the battery or refilling
fluid reservoirs.
The power distribution box is in the
engine compartment. It has
high-current fuses that protect your
vehicle's main electrical systems from
overloads.
If you disconnect and reconnect the
battery, you will need to reset some
features. See Changing the 12V
Battery (page 281).

Fuses

• Only use the sealing compoundbefore the use by date. The use by
date is on the lower right hand
corner of the label located on the
sealant canister (bottle). Check
the use by date regularly and
replace the canister after four
years.
• Do not store the kit unsecured inside the passenger compartment
of the vehicle as it may cause injury
during a sudden stop or crash.
Always store the kit in its original
location.
• After sealant use, the tire pressure monitoring system sensor and
valve stem on the wheel must be
replaced by an authorized Ford
dealer.
• When inflating a tire or other objects, use the black air hose only.
Do not use the transparent hose
which is designed for sealant
application only.
• Operating the kit could cause an electrical disturbance in radio, CD,
and DVD player operation.
What to do when a Tire Is
Punctured
A tire puncture within the tire's tread
area can be repaired in two stages
with the kit. • In the first stage, the tire will be
reinflated with a sealing
compound and air. After the tire
has been reinflated, you will need
to drive the vehicle a short
distance (about 4 miles [6
kilometers]) to distribute the
sealant in the tire.
• In the second stage, you will need to check the tire pressure and
adjust, if necessary, to the vehicle's
tire inflation pressure.
First Stage: Reinflating the Tire
with Sealing Compound and Air
WARNINGS
Do not stand directly over the kit
while inflating the tire. If you
notice any unusual bulges or
deformations in the tire's sidewall
during inflation, stop and call roadside
assistance.
If the tire doesn't inflate to the
recommended tire pressure
within 15 minutes, stop and call
roadside assistance.
Preparation: Park the vehicle in a safe,
level and secure area, away from
moving traffic. Turn the hazard lights
on. Apply the parking brake and turn
the engine off. Inspect the flat tire for
visible damage.
Sealant compound contains latex. To
avoid any allergic reactions, use the
non-latex gloves located in the
accessory box on the underside of the
kit housing.
