Note:
The gearshift lever can only be
moved to reverse (R) by raising the collar
below the gearshift knob up before shifting
to reverse. This is a lockout feature which
protects the transmission from accidentally
engaging reverse (R) when intending to
select first (1).
If reverse (R) is not fully engaged, press
the clutch pedal down and return the
gearshift to the neutral position. Release
the clutch pedal for a moment, then raise
the collar and shift to reverse (R) again.
Parking Your Vehicle WARNING
Always set the parking brake fully
and make sure you shift the gearshift
lever to first gear. Switch the ignition
off and remove the key whenever you leave
your vehicle. To park your vehicle:
1. Press the brake pedal and shift the
gearshift lever to the neutral position.
2. Fully apply the parking brake and switch the ignition off.
3. Hold the clutch pedal down and shift the gearshift lever to first gear. MANUAL TRANSMISSION - 5-

Using the Clutch
Note:
Failure to fully depress the clutch
pedal to the floor may cause increased shift
efforts, prematurely wear transmission
components or damage the transmission.
Note: Do not drive with your foot resting on
the clutch pedal or use the clutch pedal to
hold your vehicle at a standstill while
waiting on a hill. These actions will reduce
the life of the clutch and could nullify a
clutch warranty claim. Manual transmission vehicles have a
starter interlock that prevents cranking the
engine unless the clutch pedal is fully
depressed.
Starting Your Vehicle
WARNING
Pedals that cannot move freely can
cause loss of vehicle control and
increase the risk of serious personal
injury. 1.
Make sure the parking brake is fully set
and shift the gearshift lever to the
neutral position.

2. Fully depress the clutch pedal then
start the engine.
3. Press the brake pedal and shift the gearshift lever to first or reverse gear.
4. Release the parking brake and slowly release the clutch pedal while slowly
pressing on the accelerator.
During each shift, make sure you fully
depress the clutch pedal.
Recommended Shift Speeds
Note: Do not shift the gearshift lever to first
gear when your vehicle is moving faster than
14 mph (23 km/h). This will damage the
clutch.
We recommend you change gear
according to the following guide to achieve
the best fuel economy for your vehicle. Recommended

Reverse
Note: Do not shift the gearshift lever to
reverse gear when your vehicle is moving.
This can cause damage to the transmission.
1. Fully depress the clutch pedal to disengage clutch.
2. Shift the gearshift lever to the neutral position and wait at least three
seconds before moving it to reverse. If reverse gear is not fully engaged, press
the clutch pedal down and shift the
gearshift lever to the neutral position.
Release the clutch pedal for a moment,
depress the clutch again and shift the
gearshift lever to reverse.
Parking Your Vehicle WARNING
Always set the parking brake fully
and make sure you shift the gearshift
lever to first gear. Switch the ignition
off and remove the key whenever you leave
your vehicle. To park your vehicle:
1. Press the brake pedal and shift the
gearshift lever to the neutral position.
2. Fully apply the parking brake and switch the ignition off.
3. Hold the clutch pedal down, and shift the gearshift lever to first gear.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WARNINGS
Always set the parking brake fully
and latch the gearshift in park (P).
Turn the ignition to the off position
and remove the key whenever you leave
your vehicle. Do not apply the brake pedal and
accelerator pedal simultaneously.
Applying both pedals simultaneously
for more than three seconds will limit
engine rpm, which may result in difficulty
maintaining speed in traffic and could lead
to serious injury. 140

The PowerShift™ 6-speed, dual-clutch
automatic transmission is designed to offer
drivers both enhanced fuel efficiency and
fun to drive performance. This
transmission
’s dual-clutch technology uses
electronically shifted clutches to operate
two separate transmissions all in a small
lightweight package.
Since the clutch and gear operation is
derived from a manual transmission, the
PowerShift automatic transmission will
drive, sound, and feel similar to manual
transmission minus the required
user-inputs. For example, the transmission
may exhibit mechanical noises, firm gear
shifts and/or light clutch vibrations when
accelerating slowly as the clutches
automatically engage. These are all
considered to be normal and expected
driving characteristics.
Understanding the Positions of
Your Automatic Transmission
Putting your vehicle in gear:
1. Fully press down the brake pedal.
2. Move the gearshift lever into the desired gear.
3. Come to a complete stop.
4. Move the gearshift lever and securely latch it in park (P). Park (P)
This position locks the transmission and
prevents the wheels from turning.
Reverse (R)
With the gearshift lever in reverse (R), your
vehicle moves backward. Always come to
a complete stop before shifting into and
out of reverse (R).
Neutral (N)
With the gearshift lever in neutral (N), your
vehicle can be started and is free to roll.
Hold the brake pedal down while in this
position.
Drive (D)
Drive (D) is the normal driving position for
the best fuel economy. The overdrive
function allows automatic upshifts and
downshifts through gears one through six.
Sport (S)
Moving the gearshift lever to sport (S):
•
Provides additional grade (engine)
braking and extends lower gear
operation to enhance performance for
uphill climbs, hilly terrain or
mountainous areas. This increases
engine RPM during engine braking.
• Provides additional lower gear
operation through the automatic
transmission shift strategy.
• Gears are selected more quickly and
at higher engine speeds.
SelectShift Automatic ™
Transmission (If Equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with a SelectShift
Automatic transmission gearshift lever.
The SelectShift Automatic transmission
gives you the ability to change gears up or
down (without a clutch) as desired.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
FLUID CHECK
The automatic transmission does not have
a transmission fluid dipstick.
Have an authorized dealer check and
change the transmission fluid at the
correct service interval. See Scheduled
Maintenance (page 409). Your
transmission does not consume fluid.
However, if the transmission slips, shifts
slowly or if you notice a sign of leaking
fluid, contact an authorized dealer.
Do not use supplemental transmission
fluid additives, treatments or cleaning
agents. The use of these materials may
affect transmission operation and result
in damage to internal transmission
components.
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. Only use brake fluid from a sealed
container. Contamination with dirt,
water, petroleum products or other
materials may result in brake system
damage or failure. Failure to adhere to this
warning could result in the loss of vehicle
control, serious personal injury or death. Do not allow the fluid to touch your
skin or eyes. If this happens, rinse the
affected areas immediately with
plenty of water and contact your physician. WARNINGS
A fluid level between the
MAX and
MIN lines is within the normal
operating range and there is no need
to add fluid. A fluid level not in the normal
operating range could compromise the
performance of the system. Have your
vehicle checked immediately. To avoid fluid contamination, the reservoir
cap must remain in place and fully tight,
unless you are adding fluid.
Only use fluid that meets Ford
specifications.
CLUTCH FLUID CHECK -
MANUAL TRANSMISSION
The clutch and brake systems share the
same fluid reservoir. See
Brake Fluid
Check (page 222).
