FUEL QUALITY - GASOLINE
Choosing the Right Fuel (Gasoline
Vehicles)
Use only unleaded gasoline or unleaded
gasoline blended with a maximum of 15%
ethanol in your gasoline vehicle.
Do not use:
•
Fuels containing more than 15%
ethanol or E-85 fuel.
• Fuels containing methanol.
• Fuels containing metallic based
additives, including manganese-based
compounds.
• Fuels containing the octane booster
additive, methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl.
• Leaded fuel. The use of leaded fuel is
prohibited by law.
Note: The use of any fuel other than the
recommended fuel can cause powertrain
damage, impair the emission control system
or cause loss of vehicle performance and
repairs may not be covered under warranty,.
Choosing the Right Fuel (Flexible
Fuel Vehicles)
Use only unleaded gasoline or unleaded
gasoline blended with a maximum of 85%
ethanol E-85 in your vehicle. Your vehicle
will have a yellow bezel placed over the
fuel tank filler pipe.
Do not use:
• Fuels containing more than 85%
ethanol or E-100 fuel.
• Fuels containing methanol.
• Fuels containing metallic based
additives, including manganese-based
compounds. •
Fuels containing the octane booster
additive, methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl.
• Leaded fuel. The use of leaded fuel is
prohibited by law.
Note: The use of any fuel other than the
recommended fuel can cause powertrain
damage, impair the emission control system
or cause loss of vehicle performance and
repairs may not be covered under warranty,.
Octane Recommendations
1.6L Engine
Regular unleaded gasoline with a pump
(R+M)/2 octane rating of 87 is
recommended. Some fuel stations offer
fuels posted as regular with an octane
rating below 87, particularly in high altitude
areas. Fuels with octane levels below 87
are not recommended.
1.0L and 1.6L EcoBoost Engines
Regular unleaded gasoline with a pump
(R+M)/2 octane rating of 87 is
recommended. Some fuel stations offer
fuels posted as regular with an octane
rating below 87, particularly in high altitude
areas. Fuels with octane levels below 87
are not recommended. Premium fuel will
provide improved performance and is
recommended for severe duty usage such
as trailer tow.
Do not be concerned if your engine
sometimes knocks lightly. However, if it
knocks heavily while you are using fuel with
the recommended octane rating, see an
authorized dealer to prevent any engine
damage.
REFUELING WARNINGS
Fuel vapor burns violently and a fuel
fire can cause severe injuries.

If you use oil and fluids that do not meet
the defined specification and viscosity
grade, this may lead to:
• Component damage which is not
covered by the vehicle warranty.
• Longer engine cranking periods.
• Increased emission levels.
• Reduced engine performance.
• Reduced fuel economy.
• Degraded brake performance.
Use 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. An oil that displays this symbol conforms
to current engine, emission system and
fuel economy performance standards of
the International Lubricant Standardization
and Approval Committee (ILSAC).
Do not use supplemental engine oil
additives because they are unnecessary
and could lead to engine damage that may
not be covered by your vehicle warranty.
