REMOVING A HEADLAMP
WARNING
Handle a halogen headlamp bulb
carefully and keep out of children
’s
reach. Grasp the bulb only by its
plastic base and do not touch the glass.
The oil from your hand could cause the
bulb to break the next time the headlamps
are operated. Note:
If the bulb is accidentally touched, it
should be cleaned with rubbing alcohol
before being used.
Note: This procedure is for replacing the
headlamps, park lamps or turn lamps.
1. Make sure the headlamp control is in the off position and open the hood. 2.
Using masking tape or a marker, make
an alignment mark between one of the
grille brackets and the vehicle radiator
support to ensure correct grille
alignment during the installation
procedure. Do not scratch the black
coating from the radiator support.
3. Remove the two grille to headlamp assembly push pins and the four bolts
attaching the top of the grille to the
radiator support.
4. Pull the top of the grille forward to gain
access to the lower grille spring clips. 5. Depress the spring clips through the
lower inner grille access openings using
a flat head screwdriver.
6. Pull the grill straight out to remove. 7. Remove the four bolts from the
headlamp assembly.
8. Pull the assembly straight out disengaging one snap clip from the
fender.
9. Disconnect the electrical connector by
squeezing the release tab and pushing
the connector forward, then pulling it
rearward.
CHANGING A BULB WARNINGS
Switch all of the lamps and the
ignition off. Failure to follow this
warning could result in serious
personal injury. Bulbs become hot when in use. Let
them cool down before you remove
them.
Use the correct specification bulb. See
Bulb Specification Chart (page 252).
Install in the reverse order unless otherwise
stated.

•
Never wash or rinse any ignition coil,
spark plug wire or spark plug well, or
the area in and around these locations.
• Cover the battery, power distribution
box, and air filter assembly to prevent
water damage when cleaning the
engine.
CLEANING THE WINDOWS AND
WIPER BLADES
Car wash chemicals and environmental
fallout can result in windshield and wiper
blade contamination. Dirty windshield and
wipers will result in poor windshield wiper
operation. Keep the windshield and wiper
blades clean to maintain windshield wiper
performance.
To clean the windshield and wiper blades:
• Clean the windshield with a
non-abrasive glass cleaner. When
cleaning the interior of the windshield,
avoid getting any glass cleaner on the
instrument panel or door panels. Wipe
any glass cleaner off these surfaces
immediately.
• For windshields contaminated with
tree sap, chemicals, wax or bugs, clean
the entire windshield using steel wool
(no greater than 0000 grade) in a
circular motion and rinse with water.
• Clean the wiper blades with isopropyl
rubbing alcohol or windshield washer
concentrate.
Note: Do not use razor blades or other
sharp objects to clean or remove decals
from the inside of the heated rear window.
The vehicle warranty does not cover
damage caused to the heated rear window
grid lines. CLEANING THE INTERIOR WARNINGS
Do not use cleaning solvents, bleach
or dye on the vehicle
’s safety belts,
as these actions may weaken the
belt webbing. On vehicles equipped with
seat-mounted airbags, do not use
chemical solvents or strong
detergents. Such products could
contaminate the side airbag system and
affect performance of the side airbag in a
collision. For fabric, carpets, cloth seats, safety belts
and seats equipped with side airbags:
•
Remove dust and loose dirt with a
vacuum cleaner.
• Remove light stains and soil with
Motorcraft Professional Strength
Carpet & Upholstery Cleaner.
• If grease or tar is present on the
material, spot-clean the area first with
Motorcraft Spot and Stain Remover. In
Canada, use Motorcraft Multi-Purpose
Cleaner.
• If a ring forms on the fabric after spot
cleaning, clean the entire area
immediately (but do not oversaturate)
or the ring will set.
• Do not use household cleaning
products or glass cleaners, which can
stain and discolor the fabric and affect
the flame retardant abilities of the seat
materials.
