Replacing the Battery
Note:Refer to local regulations when disposing of transmitter batteries.
Note:Do not wipe off any grease on the battery terminals or on the
back surface of the circuit board.
Note:Replacing the battery will not delete the transmitter from your
vehicle. The transmitter should operate normally.
The remote control uses one coin-type three-volt lithium battery CR2032
or equivalent.
Integrated Keyhead Transmitter
1. Twist a thin coin in the slot near the key
ring to remove the battery cover (1).
2. Carefully peel up the rubber gasket (2)
from the transmitter if it does not come off
with the battery cover.
3. Remove the old battery (3).
4. Insert the new battery. Refer to the instructions inside the integrated
keyhead transmitter for the correct orientation of the battery. Press the
battery down to ensure that the battery is fully seated in the battery
housing cavity.
5. Reinstall the rubber gasket.
6. Snap the battery cover back onto the key.

Fuel Gauge
Note:The fuel gauge may vary slightly when your vehicle is moving or
on a gradient.
Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge will indicate approximately how
much fuel is left in the fuel tank. The arrow adjacent to the fuel pump
symbol indicates on which side of your vehicle the fuel filler door is
located.
The needle should move toward F when you refuel your vehicle. If the
needle points to E after adding fuel, this indicates your vehicle needs
service soon.
After refueling some variability in needle position is normal:
•It may take a short time for the needle to reach F after leaving the gas
station. This is normal and depends upon the slope of pavement at the
gas station.

•The fuel amount dispensed into the tank is a little less or more than
the gauge indicated. This is normal and depends upon the slope of
pavement at the gas station.
•If the gas station nozzle shuts off before the tank is full, try a different
gas pump nozzle.
Low Fuel Reminder
A low fuel reminder triggers when the fuel gauge needle is at 1/16th.

1Ford recommends using Motorcraft (Ford) DOT 4 Low Viscosity High Performance 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.2Use of synthetic or synthetic blend motor oil is not mandatory. Only use fluid that meets Ford
specifications. Motor oils of the recommended viscosity grade that meet API SN requirements
and display the API Certification Mark for gasoline engines are also acceptable. Do not use oil
labeled with API SN service category unless the label also displays the API certification mark.3An oil that displays the API Certification Mark symbol conforms to current engine, emission
system and fuel economy performance standards of the International Lubricant Standardization
and Approval Committee (ILSAC).4Do not use supplemental engine oil additives. They are unnecessary and could lead to engine
damage that is not covered by your Ford warranty.5Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.
