•
Only use the sealing compound before
the use-by date. The use-by date is on a
label on the sealant canister and can be
seen through the rectangular viewing
window on the bottom of the compressor.
Check the use-by date regularly and
replace the canister after four years of
non-use.
• Do not store the kit unsecured inside the
passenger compartment of the vehicle
as it may cause injury during a sudden
stop or crash. Always store the kit in its
original location.
• After sealant use, the tire pressure
monitoring system sensor and valve stem
on the wheel must be replaced by an
authorized Ford dealer.
• Operating the kit could cause an
electrical disturbance in radio, CD, and
DVD player operation. * When inflation only is required for
a tire or other objects, the selector
must be in the Air position. What to do when a Tire Is Punctured
A tire puncture within the tire's tread area
can be repaired in two stages with the kit.
•
In the first stage, the tire will be reinflated
with a sealing compound and air. After
the tire has been inflated, you will need
to drive the vehicle a short distance
(about 4 miles [6 kilometers]) to distribute
the sealant in the tire.
• In the second stage, you will need to
check the tire pressure and adjust, if
necessary, to the vehicle's specified tire
inflation pressure.
First Stage: Reinflating the Tire with
Sealing Compound and Air WARNINGS
Do not stand directly over the kit while
inflating the tire. If you notice any
unusual bulges or deformations in the tire's
sidewall during inflation, stop and call
roadside assistance. If the tire does not inflate to the
recommended tire pressure within 15
minutes, stop and call roadside assistance. WARNINGS
Do not run the engine during kit
operation unless the vehicle is
outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Preparation: Park the vehicle in a safe, level
and secure area, away from moving traffic.
Turn the hazard lights on. Apply the parking
brake and turn the engine off. Inspect the
flat tire for visible damage.
Sealant compound contains latex. Use
appropriate precautions to avoid any allergic
reactions.
Do not remove any foreign object that has
pierced the tire. If a puncture is located in
the tire sidewall, stop and call roadside
assistance.
1.
Remove the valve cap from the tire valve.
2. Unwrap the dual purpose hose (black tube) from the back of the compressor
housing.
3. Fasten the hose to the tire valve by turning the connector clockwise. Tighten
the connection securely.

Your A/V inputs allow you to connect an
auxiliary audio/video source (such as a
gaming systems or a personal camcorder)
by connecting RCA cords (not included) to
these input jacks. The jacks are yellow, red
and white and are located either behind a
small access door on the instrument panel
or in your center console.
You can also use the A/V inputs as an
auxiliary input jack to play music from your
portable music player over your vehicle's
speakers. Plug in your 1/8 inch (3.5 millimeter)
RCA adapter into the two left A/V input jacks
(red and white).
Press the lower left corner of the
touchscreen, and then select A/V In. To use the auxiliary input jack feature, make
sure that your portable music player is
designed for use with headphones and that
it is fully charged. You also need an audio
extension cable with stereo male 1/8-inch
(3.5 millimeter) connectors at one end and a
RCA jack at the other.
1.
Switch off the engine, radio and portable
music player. Set the parking brake and
put the transmission in position
P.
2. Attach one end of the audio extension cable to the headphone output of your
player and the other end into the adapter
in one of the two left A/V input jacks
(white or red) inside the center console.
3. Press the lower left corner on the touchscreen. Select either a tuned FM
station or a CD (if there is a CD already
loaded into the system).
4. Adjust the volume as desired.
5. Turn the portable music player on and adjust the volume to ½ the maximum.
6. Press the lower left corner on the touchscreen. Select the
A/V In tab. (You
should hear audio from your portable
music player although it may be low.) 7.
Adjust the sound on your portable music
player until it reaches the level of the FM
station or CD by switching back and forth
between the controls.
In order to playback video from your iPod or
iPhone, you must have a special combination
USB/RCA composite video cable (which you
can buy from Apple). When you connect the
cable to your iPod or iPhone, plug the other
end into both the RCA jacks and the USB
port.
Troubleshooting
• Do not connect the audio input jack to a
line level output. The jack only works
correctly with devices that have a
headphone output with a volume control.
• Do not set the portable music player's
volume level higher than is necessary to
match the volume of the CD or FM radio
as this causes distortion and reduces
sound quality.

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.
Function of all interior and exterior lights.
Tires (including spare) for wear and proper pressure. Windshield washer fluid level. Check every six months
Battery connections. Clean if necessary.
Body and door drain holes for obstructions. Clean if necessary. Cooling system fluid level and coolant strength.
Door weatherstrips for wear. Lubricate if necessary.
Hinges, latches and outside locks for proper operation. Lubricate if necessary. Parking brake for proper operation.
