2015 LINCOLN MKC coolant level

1
Ford recommends using Motorcraft (Ford) DOT 4 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.
2 Approximate dry fill capacity. Actual amount may vary during fluid changes.
3 Automatic transmissions that require Motorcraft MERCON LV transmission fluid should only use Motorcraft MERCON LV transmission fluid.
Use of any fluid other than the recommended fluid may cause transmission\
damage.
Change the automatic transmission fluid at the correct service interval.\
See Scheduled Maintenance (page 451).
4 See your authorized dealer for fluid level checking or filling.
5 Use of synthetic or synthetic blend motor oil is not mandatary. Your engine has been designed to use Motorcraft engine oils or equivalent\
oils that meet Ford’ s oil specification. It is also acceptable to use an engine oil of recom\
mended viscosity grade that meets API SN requirements
and displays the API Certification Mark for gasoline engines.
6 Do not use oils labeled as API SN unless the label also displays the API\
certification mark. These oils do not meet the requirements of your
vehicle's engine and emissions system.
7 Do not use supplemental engine oil additives. They are unnecessary and c\
ould lead to engine damage that is not covered by Ford’ s warranty.
8 Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.
9 See the Warning below: WARNING
The air conditioning refrigerant system contains refrigerant R-134a unde\
r high pressure. Opening the air conditioning refrigerant system
can cause personal injury. Have the air conditioning refrigerant system serviced only by qualifie\
d personnel.

Make sure to change your vehicle
’s oils and
fluids at the specified intervals or in
conjunction with a repair. Flushing is a viable
way to change fluid for many vehicle
sub-systems during scheduled maintenance. It is critical that systems are flushed only with
new fluid that is the same as that required
to fill and operate the system or using a
Ford-approved flushing chemical.
Owner Checks and Services
Make sure you perform the following basic
maintenance checks and inspections every
month or at six-month intervals. Check every month
Engine oil level.

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.
