GENERAL INFORMATION
See the following sections for directions on how to properly use safety
restraints for children.
WARNING:Always make sure your child is secured properly in a
device that is appropriate for their height, age and weight. Child
safety restraints must be bought separately from your vehicle. Failure
to follow these instructions and guidelines may result in an increased
risk of serious injury or death to your child.
WARNING:All children are shaped differently. The
recommendations for safety restraints are based on probable
child height, age and weight thresholds from NHTSA and other safety
organizations, or are the minimum requirements of law. Ford
recommends checking with a NHTSA Certified Child Passenger Safety
Technician (CPST) and consulting your pediatrician to make sure your
child seat is appropriate for your child, and is compatible with and
properly installed in your vehicle. To locate a child seat fitting station
and CPST, contact the NHTSA toll free at 1-888-327-4236 or on the
internet at http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov. In Canada, check with your local
St. John Ambulance office for referral to a CPST or for further
information, contact your provincial ministry of transportation, or locate
your local St. John Ambulance office by searching for St. John
Ambulance on the internet, or Transport Canada at 1–800–333–0371
(http://www.tc.gc.ca). Failure to properly restrain children in safety
seats made especially for their height, age, and weight may result in an
increased risk of serious injury or death to your child.
WARNING:Do not leave children or animals unattended in the
vehicle. On hot days, the temperature in the trunk or vehicle
interior can rise very quickly. Exposure of people or animals to these
high temperatures for even a short time can cause death or serious
heat-related injuries, including brain damage. Small children are
particularly at risk.

Opening the Trunk (Sedan Only)
Press the button twice within three seconds to open the trunk.
Make sure the trunk is closed and latched before driving your vehicle. An
unlatched trunk may cause objects to fall out or block the driver’s rear view.
Smart Locks (If Equipped)
This feature helps to prevent you from locking yourself out of your
vehicle if your key is still in the ignition.
When you open one of the front doors and lock your vehicle with the
power door lock control (on the driver or passenger door trim panel), all
the doors will lock, then all doors will automatically unlock reminding
you that your key is still in the ignition.
Your vehicle can still be locked, with the key in the ignition, by locking the
driver door with a key or using the lock control on the remote control.
If both front doors and the liftgate are closed, your vehicle can be locked
from any method, regardless of whether the key is in the ignition or not.
Illuminated Entry (If Equipped)
The interior lamps and parking lamps will illuminate when you use the
remote control to unlock the doors or when you open any door.
The illuminated entry system will turn off the lights:
•if you switch the ignition on,
•if you press the remote control lock button,
•after 25 seconds of illumination.
The interior lights will not turn off if:
•you turn them on with the dimmer control, or
•any door is open.
Illuminated Exit (If Equipped)
When all vehicle doors are closed and you remove the key from the
ignition, the interior lamps will illuminate.
The lamps will turn off if all the doors remain closed and
•25 seconds elapse, or
•you insert the key in the ignition.

Battery Saver
The battery saver shuts off the lamps 10 minutes after you switch the
ignition off.
•If you switched the dome lamps on using the panel dimmer control,
the battery saver shuts them off 10 minutes after you switch the
ignition off.
•If the courtesy lamps turn on because you opened one of your vehicle
doors or the trunk or liftgate, the battery saver shuts them off
10 minutes after you switch the ignition off.
•The battery saver shuts off the headlamps 10 minutes after you switch
the ignition off.
TRUNK RELEASE (SEDAN)
To open the trunk from outside your vehicle, use the key in the trunk
lock cylinder.
To open the trunk from inside your vehicle, press the
button located on the instrument panel.
Your dealer can set the trunk-release button to open
the trunk only when the ignition is in the on position,
or to open the trunk when the ignition is in any
position. See your authorized dealer to change these
settings.
LIFTGATE (UTILITY)
WARNING:Make sure to close and latch the liftgate to prevent
drawing exhaust fumes into your vehicle. This will also prevent
passengers and cargo from falling out. If you must drive with the
liftgate open, keep the vents or windows open so outside air comes into
your vehicle. Failure to follow this warning could result in serious
personal injury.
Note:Be careful when opening or closing the liftgate in a garage or
other enclosed area to avoid damaging the liftgate.
Note:Do not hang anything, for example a bike rack, from the spoiler,
glass or liftgate. This could damage the liftgate and its components.
Note:Do not leave the liftgate open while driving. This could damage
the liftgate and its components.

injury. Children should be taught not to play in vehicles.
WARNING:Do not leave children, unreliable adults, or animals
unattended in your vehicle. On hot days, the temperature in the
trunk or vehicle interior can rise very quickly. Exposure of people or
animals to these high temperatures for even a short time can cause
death or serious heat-related injuries, including brain damage. Small
children are particularly at risk.
