FUSE SPECIFICATION CHART
Pre-Fuse Box
Your vehicle has a pre-fuse box attached
to the power distribution box. There is a
second pre-fuse box attached to the
12-volt battery terminal in the rear of your
vehicle. They contain high-current fuses.
If you need to replace one of these fuses,
see an authorized dealer.
Power Distribution Box
WARNINGS
Always disconnect the battery before
servicing high current fuses. WARNINGS
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 located 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 223).
Lift the release lever at the rear of the cover
to remove it. 204

ENGINE OIL CHECK
Check the level before starting the engine
and make sure that the level is between
the MIN and the MAX marks.
1. Make sure that your vehicle is on level ground.
2. Switch the engine off and wait 10 minutes for the oil to drain into the oil
pan.
3. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean, lint-free cloth. Replace the
dipstick and remove it again to check
the oil level.
If the oil level is at the minimum mark, add
oil immediately. Adding Engine Oil
Note:
Do not remove the filler cap when
the engine is running.
Note: Do not add oil further than the MAX
mark. Oil levels above the MAX mark may
cause engine damage. Only use oils certified for gasoline engines
by the American Petroleum Institute (API).
An oil with this trademark symbol
conforms to the current engine and
emission system protection standards and
fuel economy requirements of the
International Lubricants Specification
Advisory Council (ILSAC), comprised of
U.S. and Japanese automobile
manufacturers.
1. Remove the filler cap.
2. Add engine oil that meets the Ford
specifications. See
Capacities and
Specifications (page 275).
