To reduce risk of electrical shock,
always replace the cover to the
power distribution box before
reconnecting the battery or refilling fluid
reservoirs.
Always disconnect the battery before
servicing high current fuses. This fuse box contains several high current
fuses that protect your vehicle's main
electrical systems from overloads.
If the 12 volt battery is disconnected and
reconnected, some features need to be
reset.

GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNINGS
Switch your vehicle off before
carrying out any under hood check
or adjustment. Failure to follow this
warning could result in serious personal
injury or death. Do not touch any under hood
components after you have switched
your vehicle on. Failure to follow this
warning could result in serious personal
injury or death. Keep clear of the cooling fan. Under
certain conditions, the cooling fan
continues to run after you have
switched your vehicle off. Failure to follow
this warning could result in serious
personal injury. High Voltage Information
WARNING
Exposure to high voltage could result
in severe personal injury or death. A
trained service technician must
service high voltage components. Failure
to follow this warning could result in
serious personal injury. Your vehicle has various high voltage
components and wiring. All of the high
voltage power flows through specific wiring
assemblies. These are labeled accordingly
or are covered with a orange convolute
tube or orange stripe tape. Do not touch
any of the high voltage components. Regular Maintenance
Have your vehicle serviced regularly to help
maintain its roadworthiness and resale
value. There is a large network of Ford
authorized repairers that are there to help
you with their professional servicing
expertise. Ford authorized repairers are
best qualified to service your vehicle
correctly using specialized tools.
In addition to regular servicing, we
recommend that you carry out the
following checks.
Note:
Make sure that you fit filler caps
securely after carrying out maintenance
checks.
Daily Checks
• Exterior lamps.
• Interior lamps.
• Warning lamps and indicators.
Weekly Checks
• Brake fluid level. See Brake Fluid
Check (page 170).
• Washer fluid level. See
Washer Fluid
Check (page 171).
• Tire condition. See Wheels and Tires
(page
188).

Coolant Check
(page 168).

COOLANT CHECK WARNINGS
Do not remove the coolant reservoir
cap when the cooling system is hot.
Wait 10 minutes for the cooling
system to cool down. Cover the coolant
reservoir cap with a thick cloth to prevent
the possibility of scalding and slowly
remove the cap. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury. WARNINGS
Do not put coolant in the windshield
washer fluid reservoir. If sprayed on
the windshield, coolant could make
it difficult to see through the windshield. Do not add coolant further than the
MAX
mark.
Note:
Make sure that the coolant level is
between the
MIN and MAX marks on the
coolant reservoir.

Note:
Coolant expands when it is hot. The
level may extend beyond the MAX mark.
When the electric motor is cold, check the
concentration and level of the coolant at
the intervals listed in the scheduled
maintenance information. See Scheduled
Maintenance
(page 316).
Maintain coolant concentration within
48% to 50%, which equates to a freeze
point between -30°F (-34°C) and -34°F
(-37°C). Coolant concentration should be
checked using a refractometer. We do not
recommend the use of hydrometers or
coolant test strips for measuring coolant
concentration.
Adding Coolant WARNINGS
Do not remove the coolant reservoir
cap when the cooling system is hot.
Wait 10 minutes for the cooling
system to cool down. Cover the coolant
reservoir cap with a thick cloth to prevent
the possibility of scalding and slowly
remove the cap. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury. Do not put coolant in the windshield
washer fluid reservoir. If sprayed on
the windshield, coolant could make
it difficult to see through the windshield. Note:
Automotive fluids are not
interchangeable.
Note: Do not use stop leak pellets, cooling
system sealants, or non-specified additives
as they can cause damage to the electric
motor cooling or heating systems. Resulting
component damage may not be covered by
the vehicle Warranty. It is very important to use prediluted
coolant approved to the correct
specification in order to avoid plugging the
small passageways in the electric motor
cooling system. See
Capacities and
Specifications (page 218). Do not mix
different colors or types of coolant in your
vehicle. Mixing of coolants or using an
incorrect coolant may harm the electric
motor or cooling system components and
may not be covered by the vehicle
Warranty.
Note: If prediluted coolant is not available,
use the approved concentrated coolant
diluting it to 50/50 with distilled water. See
Capacities and Specifications (page 218).
Using water that has not been deionised
may contribute to deposit formation,
corrosion and plugging of the small cooling
system passageways.
Note: Coolants marketed for all makes and
models may not be approved to Ford
specifications and may cause damage to
the cooling system. Resulting component
damage may not be covered by the vehicle
Warranty.
If the coolant level is at or below the
minimum mark, add prediluted coolant
immediately.
To top up the coolant level do the
following:
1. Unscrew the cap slowly. Any pressure escapes as you unscrew the cap.
2. Add prediluted coolant approved to the correct specification. See
Capacities and Specifications (page
218
).
3. Add enough prediluted coolant to reach the correct level.
4. Replace the coolant reservoir cap, turn
it clockwise until you feel a strong
resistance.

5. Check the coolant level in the coolant
reservoir the next few times you drive
your vehicle. If necessary, add enough
prediluted coolant to bring the coolant
level to the correct level.
If you have to add more than 1.1 qt (1 L) of
coolant per month, have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible. Operating an
electric motor with a low level of coolant
can result in electric motor overheating
and possible electric motor damage.
Note: During normal vehicle operation, the
coolant may change color from orange to
pink or light red. As long as the coolant is
clear and uncontaminated, this color change
does not indicate the coolant has degraded
nor does it require the coolant to be drained,
the system to be flushed, or the coolant to
be replaced.
Note: In case of emergency, you can add a
large amount of water without coolant in
order to reach a vehicle service location.
Water alone, without coolant, can cause
electric motor damage from corrosion,
overheating or freezing. When you reach a
service location, you must have the cooling
system drained and refilled with prediluted
coolant approved to the correct
specification. See
Capacities and
Specifications (page 218).
Do not use the following as a coolant
substitute:
• Alcohol.
• Methanol.
• Brine.
• Any coolant mixed with alcohol or
methanol antifreeze.
Alcohol and other liquids can cause electric
motor damage from overheating or
freezing.
Do not add extra inhibitors or additives to
the coolant. These can be harmful and
compromise the corrosion protection of
the coolant. Recycled Coolant
Ford Motor Company does not recommend
the use of recycled coolant since a
Ford-approved recycling process is not yet
available.
Dispose of used coolant in the appropriate
manner. Follow your community's
regulations and standards for recycling and
disposing of automotive fluids.
Severe Climates
If you drive in extremely cold climates:
•
It may be necessary to increase the
coolant concentration above 50%.
• A coolant concentration of 60%
provides improved freeze point
protection. Coolant concentrations
above 60% decrease the overheat
protection characteristics of the
coolant and may cause electric motor
damage.
If you drive in extremely hot climates:
• You can decrease the coolant
concentration to 40%.
• Coolant concentrations below 40%
decrease the freeze and corrosion
protection characteristics of the
coolant and may cause electric motor
damage.
Vehicles driven year-round in non-extreme
climates should use prediluted coolant for
optimum cooling system and electric
motor protection.
BRAKE FLUID CHECK WARNINGS
Do not use any fluid other than the
recommended brake fluid as this will
reduce brake efficiency. Use of
incorrect fluid could result in the loss of
vehicle control, serious personal injury or
death.
