1 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.
2 Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.
3 Contact an authorized dealer for fluid level checking or filling.
4 Make sure the correct automatic transmission fluid is used. Transmission fluid requirements are indicated on the dipstick blade or the dipstick
handle. Before adding, check the container to verify the fluid is of the correct type. Refer to your scheduled maintenance information to
determine the correct service interval.
Note: Automatic transmissions that require MERCON LV should only use MERCON LV fluid. Use of any fluid other than the recommended fluid
may cause transmission damage.
5 Indicates only approximate dry-fill capacity. Some applications may vary based on cooler size and if equipped with an in-tank cooler. Use the
indication on the dipstick, showing the normal operating range, to determine the amount of transmission fluid and the fluid level.
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.
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.
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):
