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. An oil with this trademark symbol
conforms to the current engine and
emission system protection standards and
fuel economy requirements of the
International Lubricants Specification
Advisory Council (ILSAC). Note:
Do not use supplemental engine oil
additives. They are unnecessary and could
lead to engine damage that is not covered
by Ford ’s warranty.
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.
Use multi-purpose grease for door latches,
hood latch, auxiliary hood latch, trunk latch
and seat tracks.
If you use oil and fluids that do not meet
the defined specification and viscosity
grades this may lead to:
• Component damage which may not be
covered by the vehicle Warranty.
• Longer engine cranking periods.
• Increased emission levels.
• Reduced engine performance.

Note: The American Petroleum Institute
(API) service symbol is used to identify the
correct engine oil for your vehicle's engine.
The API service symbol is on the oil
container. Note:
The use of correct oil viscosities is
important for satisfactory operation.
Determine which oil viscosity best suits the
temperature range you expect to encounter
for the next service interval from the SAE
viscosity grade chart. Note:
For the use of biodiesel fuel (B6 –
B20), use SAE 5W-40 API CJ-4.
Ford recommends using DOT 4 Low
