Penetrating and Lock Lubricant
XL-1
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.
Note:
Ford recommends using DOT 4 Low
Viscosity (LV) 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.
Note: Automatic transmissions that require
MERCON LV transmission fluid should only
use MERCON LV transmission fluid. The
use of any other fluid may cause
transmission damage.

MAX A/C: Touch to cool your vehicle with recirculated air. Touch again for
normal A/C operation. MAX A/C distributes air through instrument panel vents
and may help reduce odors from entering your vehicle. MAX A/C is more
economical and efficient than normal A/C mode.
F
A/C:
Touch to switch the air conditioning on or off. Use A/C with recirculated
air to improve cooling performance and efficiency. A/C engages automatically
in MAX A/C, defrost and footwell/defrost.
G
AUTO:
Touch to engage automatic operation, then set the temperature using
the temperature control. The system automatically controls fan speed, airflow
distribution, A/C on or off and the use of fresh or recirculated air.
H
Manual airflow distribution controls:
Footwell and Defrost: Distributes
air through the windshield defroster vents, demister vents, floor vents and rear
seat floor vents, and provides outside air to reduce window fogging. Panel:
Distributes air through the instrument panel vents. Panel and Floor: Distributes
air through the instrument panel vents, demister vents, floor vents and rear seat
floor vents. Floor:
Distributes air through the demister vents, floor vents and
I
rear seat floor vents. Defrost: Touch to clear the windshield of fog and thin ice.
Touch again to return to the previous airflow selection. When on, defrost provides
outside air to reduce window fogging and distributes air through the windshield
defroster vents and demister vents. MAX Defrost:
Distributes outside air
through the windshield air vents and automatically turns the air conditioning
on. The fan is set to the highest speed and the temperature to HI. When the air
distribution is set in this position, you are unable to select recirculated air or
manually adjust the fan speed and temperature control.
Driver settings:
Touch + or – adjust the temperature.

BUILT FROM: 01-09-2014
Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor®
Your vehicle is equipped with an Intelligent
Oil-Life Monitor that determines when you
should change the engine oil based on how
your vehicle is used. By using several
important factors in its calculations, the
monitor helps reduce the cost of owning
your vehicle and reduces environmental
waste at the same time. This means you do not have to remember
to change the oil on a mileage-based
schedule. Your vehicle lets you know when
an oil change is due by displaying ENGINE
OIL CHANGE DUE or OIL CHANGE
REQUIRED in the information display.
The following table provides examples of
vehicle use and its impact on oil change
intervals. It is a guideline only. Actual oil
change intervals depend on several factors
and generally decrease with severity of
use.
