TEMPORARY MOBILITY KIT (If Equipped)
Type 1
Note:
The temporary mobility kit canister
contains enough sealant compound for one
tire repair only. See your authorized Ford
dealer for additional replacement sealant
canisters.
The kit is located under the load floor of the
trunk. The kit consists of an air compressor
to inflate the tire and a sealing compound in
a canister that will effectively seal most
punctures caused by nails or similar objects.
This kit will provide a temporary tire repair
allowing you to drive your vehicle up to
120 mi (200 km) at a maximum speed of
50 mph (80 km/h) to reach a tire service
location. Air compressor (inside)

can be sealed with the kit.
