WINDSHIELD WIPERS
Note:Fully defrost the windshield before switching on the windshield
wipers.
Note:Make sure you switch off the windshield wipers before entering a
car wash.
Note:Clean the windshield and wiper blades if they begin to leave
streaks or smears. If that does not resolve the issue, install new wiper
blades.
Note:Do not operate the wipers on a dry windshield. This may scratch
the glass, damage the wiper blades or cause the wiper motor to burn out.
Always use the windshield washers before wiping a dry windshield.
Rotate the end of the control away
from you to increase the speed of
the wipers. Rotate toward you to
decrease the speed of the wipers.
WINDSHIELD WASHERS
Note:Operating wipers on a dry windshield can scratch the glass,
damage the wiper blades or cause the wiper motor to burn out. Always
use the windshield washer before wiping a dry windshield.
Note:Do not operate the washers when the washer reservoir is empty.
This may cause the washer pump to overheat.
Press the end of the stalk to switch
on the washer.
•A brief press causes a single wipe without washer fluid.
•A quick press and hold causes the wipers to swipe three times with
washer fluid.
•A long press and hold switches on the wipers and washer fluid for up
to 10 seconds.

FUEL FILTER
Gasoline Engine
Your vehicle is equipped with a lifetime fuel filter that is part of the fuel
tank. You do need to perform regular maintenance or replace it.
Diesel Engine
WARNING:Do not drain water separator while engine is
running. Fuel may ignite if separator is drained while engine is
running or vehicle is moving.
The fuel filter water separator removes any contaminated particles and
water from the fuel before the fuel enters the engine.
See your engine operator’s manual for information on draining and
replacing the fuel filter.
WASHER FLUID CHECK
WARNING:If you operate your vehicle in temperatures below
40°F (5°C), use washer fluid with antifreeze protection. Failure
to use washer fluid with antifreeze protection in cold weather could
result in impaired windshield vision and increase the risk of injury or
accident.
Add fluid to fill the reservoir if the level is low. Only use a washer fluid
that meets Ford specifications. SeeTechnical specificationsin the
Capacities and Specificationschapter.
State or local regulations on volatile organic compounds may restrict the
use of methanol, a common windshield washer antifreeze additive. Only
use washer fluids containing non-methanol antifreeze agents if they
provide cold weather protection without damaging your vehicle’s paint
finish, wiper blades or washer system.
CHANGING THE VEHICLE BATTERY
WARNING:This vehicle may be equipped with more than one
battery, removal of cable from only one battery does not
disconnect the vehicle electrical system. Be sure to disconnect cables
from all batteries when disconnecting power. Failure to do so may
cause serious personal injury or property damage.

CLEANING THE ENGINE
Note:To prevent damage to the engine control module, never
spray-wash it directly. Never spray any connector.
Engines are more efficient when they are clean because grease and dirt
build-up keep the engine warmer than normal.
When washing:
•Take care when using a power washer to clean the engine. The
high-pressure fluid could penetrate the sealed parts and cause
damage.
•Do not spray a hot engine with cold water to avoid cracking the
engine block or other engine components.
•Spray Motorcraft Engine Shampoo and Degreaser on all parts that
require cleaning and pressure rinse clean. In Canada, use Motorcraft
Engine Shampoo.
•Never wash or rinse the engine while it is hot or running; water in
the running engine may cause internal damage.
CLEANING THE WINDOWS AND WIPER BLADES
Clean the windows and wiper blades regularly. If the wipers do not wipe
properly, substances on your vehicle’s glass or the wiper blades may
cause squeaking or chatter noise from the blades, and streaking and
smearing of the windshield. To clean these items follow these tips:
•Clean the windows with a non-abrasive cleaner, such as Motorcraft
Ultra-Clear Spray Glass Cleaner.
•The wiper blades can be cleaned with isopropyl-rubbing alcohol or
Motorcraft Premium Windshield Washer Concentrate in the United
States, or Premium Quality Windshield Washer Fluid in Canada. Be
sure to replace wiper blades when they appear worn or do not
function properly.
•Do not use abrasives, as they may cause scratches.
•Do not use fuel, kerosene, or paint thinner to clean any parts.
If you cannot remove those streaks after cleaning with the glass cleaner
or if the wipers chatter and move in a jerky motion, clean the outer
surface of the windshield and the wiper blades using a sponge or soft
cloth with a neutral detergent or mild-abrasive cleaning solution. After
cleaning, rinse the windshield and wiper blades with clean water. The
windshield is clean if beads do not form when you rinse the windshield
with water.

Tires
•Maintain recommended air pressure.
Miscellaneous
•Make sure to cover all linkages, cables, levers and pins under your
vehicle with grease to prevent rust.
•Move vehicles at least 25 feet (8 meters) every 15 days to lubricate
working parts and prevent corrosion.
Removing Your Vehicle from Storage
When your vehicle is ready to come out of storage, do the following:
•Wash your vehicle to remove any dirt or grease film build-up on
window surfaces.
•Check windshield wipers for any deterioration.
•Check under the hood for any foreign material that may have
collected during storage (mice or squirrel nests).
•Check the exhaust for any foreign material that may have collected
during storage.
•Check tire pressures and set tire inflation per the Tire Label.
•Check brake pedal operation. Drive your vehicle 15 feet (4.5 meters)
back and forth to remove rust build-up.
•Check fluid levels (including engine coolant, engine oil and fuel) to
make sure there are no leaks and fluids are at recommended levels.
•If you remove the battery, clean the battery cable ends and inspect.
Contact an authorized dealer if you have any concerns or issues.
