CHANGING THE ENGINE AIR
FILTER
WARNING
To reduce the risk of vehicle damage
and personal burn injuries, do not
start your engine with the air cleaner
removed and do not remove it while the
engine is running. Only use the specified replacement air
filter. See Capacities and Specifications
(page 274).
Note: Failure to use the correct air filter
element may result in severe engine
damage. Resulting component damage
may not be covered by the vehicle Warranty.
Change the air filter element at the correct
interval. See
Scheduled Maintenance
(page 363). 1. Disconnect the electrical connector
from the sensor and the cable from the
air filter cover.
Note: Vehicles with 3.2L or 3.5L engine only. 2.
Clean the area around the air tube and
air filter cover connection. Loosen the
air tube clamp, it is not necessary to
completely remove the clamp. Remove
the air tube off from the air filter
housing cover. 3. Remove the clips that secure the air
filter housing cover.
Note: To unlatch the molded clip (x1) on
the air filter housing cover, push it backward.
4. Carefully lift the air filter housing cover.
5. Remove the air filter element from the
air filter housing.

6.
Wipe any dirt or debris from the air filter
housing and cover to make sure no dirt
gets in the engine and that you have a
good seal.
7. Install a new air filter element. Be careful not to crimp the filter element
edges between the air filter housing
and cover.
8. Install the air filter housing cover.
Note: Make sure the front clips are fully
engaged and the molded clip on the air filter
housing cover is fully pushed down and
securely clicks into place.
9. Install the air tube onto the air filter cover. Tighten the air tube clamp until
you feel a strong resistance.
10. Reconnect the electrical connector to the sensor and the cable to the air
filter cover.
Secondary Foam Air Filter (If Equipped)
If you operate your vehicle in heavy snow,
we recommend that you clear any snow
or ice from the secondary foam air filter
every
200 mi (320 km). Do not
permanently remove the secondary foam
air filter. The secondary foam air filter must be in
place when the engine is running.

Note:
The wheel valve stems must
also be replaced when the road
tires are replaced on your vehicle.
Fitting Replacement Tires WARNINGS
When mounting replacement
tires and wheels, you should
not exceed the maximum pressure
indicated on the sidewall of the
tire to set the beads without
additional precautions listed
below. If the beads do not seat at
the maximum pressure indicated,
re-lubricate and try again. For mounting pressures
above 20 psi (1.38 bar)
greater than the maximum
pressure on the tire sidewall, the
tire should be replaced by a tire
professional. For mounting pressures up to 1.38
bar greater than the maximum
pressure on the tire sidewall, the
following precautions must be
taken:
•
Make sure that you have the
correct tire and wheel size.
• Lubricate the tire bead and
wheel bead seat area.
• Stand at a minimum of
12.1 ft
(3.7 m) away from the wheel
and tire assembly.
• Use eye and ear protection. Tire Pressure Monitoring
System
(If Equipped)
The use of wheels or tires not
recommended by Ford Motor
Company may affect the
operation of the tire pressure
monitoring system. If the tire
pressure monitoring system
indicator is flashing, the tire
pressure monitoring system is
malfunctioning. The replacement
tire might be incompatible with
the tire pressure monitoring
system, or a component of the tire
pressure monitoring system may
be damaged. See
Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (page 260).
The tire pressure sensors mounted
in the wheels (originally installed
on your vehicle) are not designed
to be used in aftermarket wheels.
Tire Safety Practices WARNINGS
If your vehicle is stuck in
snow, mud, sand, etc., do not
rapidly spin the tires. Spinning the
tires can tear the tire and cause
an explosion. A tire can explode in
as little as three to five seconds.

Tire Rotation
WARNING
If the tire label shows
different tire pressures for the
front and rear tires and the vehicle
is fitted with a tire pressure
monitoring system, the settings
for the system sensors need to be
reset. Always carry out the system
reset procedure after tire rotation.
If the system is not reset, it may
not provide a low tire pressure
warning when necessary. See Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
(page 260). Rotating the tires at the
recommended interval detailed in
the Scheduled Maintenance
chapter will help the tires wear
more evenly, providing better tire
performance and longer tire life.
Sometimes irregular tire wear can
be corrected by rotating the tires.
Note:
After rotating the tires the
inflation pressure must be checked
and adjusted to the vehicle
requirements.
Note: If the tires show uneven
wear ask an authorized dealer to
check for and correct any wheel
misalignment, tire imbalance or
mechanical problem involved
before tire rotation. Note:
Your vehicle may have a
dissimilar spare wheel and tire
assembly. A dissimilar spare wheel
and tire assembly is defined as a
spare wheel and tire assembly that
is different in brand, size or
appearance from the road tires and
wheels. If you have a dissimilar
spare wheel and tire assembly it is
intended for temporary use only
and should not be used in a tire
rotation.

When the malfunction indicator is
illuminated, the system may not be able
to detect or signal low tire pressure as
intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur
for a variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alternate
tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent
the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or more tires or
wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tires and wheels
allow the TPMS to continue to function
properly.
The tire pressure monitoring system
complies with part 15 of the FCC rules and
with RSS-210 of Industry Canada.
Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause
harmful interference, and (2) This device
must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Changing Tires With a Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
Note:
Each road tire is equipped with a tire
pressure sensor located inside the wheel
and tire assembly cavity. The pressure
sensor is attached to the valve stem. The
pressure sensor is covered by the tire and is
not visible unless the tire is removed. Take
care when changing the tire to avoid
damaging the sensor. You should always have your tires serviced
by an authorized dealer.
Check the tire pressure periodically (at
least monthly) using an accurate tire
gauge. See Inflating Your Tires in this
chapter.
Understanding the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System
The system measures the pressure in the
four road tires and sends the tire pressure
readings to your vehicle. The low tire
pressure warning light will illuminate if any
of the tire pressures are significantly low.
If the warning light is illuminated, one or
more of the tires are under-inflated and
need to be inflated to the correct pressure.
When the Temporary Spare Tire is
Installed
If one of the road wheels and tire needs to
be replaced with the temporary spare
wheel and tire, the system will continue to
identify a defect. This is to remind you that
the damaged road wheel and tire must be
repaired and refitted to your vehicle.
To restore the correct operation of the
system, you must have the repaired road
wheel and tire assembly refitted to your
vehicle. For additional information, see
Changing Tires with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System in this section.
When You Believe the System is Not
Operating Correctly
The main function of the system is to warn
you when the tire pressures are low. It can
also warn you in the event the system is
no longer capable of operating correctly.
See the following chart for information
concerning the system:

restore correct system function. For a
description on how the system functions,
see

Spare tire in use
On vehicles with different front and rear
tire pressures, you must retrain the
system following every tire rotation. See
Tire Care
(page 242).
