WARNINGS
Make sure the driver seat fully locks
into place by rocking it backward and
forward.
1. Lift the handle.
2. Move the seat backward or forward to
attain the desired position.
3. Release the handle.
Note: The driver seat has removable stop
bolts on the track to enable access to the
vehicle battery. See Changing the 12V
Battery (page 226). Adjusting the Lumbar Support
(If
Equipped) 1.
Rotate the handle clockwise or counter
clockwise to attain the desired lumbar
support.
Recline Adjustment WARNINGS
Do not adjust the driver seat backrest
when your vehicle is moving. This
may result in sudden seat
movement, causing the loss of control of
your vehicle. Do not adjust the recliner from inside
your vehicle if the seat is unoccupied.
The seat back may move suddenly
and cause personal injury. 101

When the engine is cold, check the
concentration and level of the coolant at
the intervals listed in the scheduled
maintenance information. See Scheduled
Maintenance (page 427).
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.
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 WARNING
Never remove the coolant reservoir
cap when the engine is running or
hot.
Note:
Automotive fluids are not
interchangeable. Take care not to put
engine coolant in the windshield washer
fluid reservoir or windshield washer fluid in
the engine coolant reservoir.
Note: Do not use stop leak pellets, cooling
system sealants, or non-specified additives
as they can cause damage to the engine
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 engine cooling
system. See
Capacities and
Specifications (page 281). Do not mix
different colors or types of coolant in your
vehicle. Mixing of engine coolants or using
an incorrect coolant may harm the engine
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 281).
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
281
).
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.

tank.
A warning lamp will illuminate
and a message will be displayed
when approximately 3.38 fl oz
(100 ml) of water accumulates in the
module. If you allow the water level to
exceed this level, the water may pass
through to the engine and may cause fuel
injection equipment damage.
Note: To drain the fuel filter water trap,
access the underside of your vehicle. 1. Attach a tube to the drain plug and
place the end of the tube into a
suitable container.
2. Loosen the drain plug by turning counterclockwise one to two turns and
allow the water to drain.
Note: The drain plug will rise when opening.
3. Tighten the drain plug by turning clockwise until you feel a strong
resistance.
Note: The drain plug will lower when
closing.
When you start the engine the water in fuel
indicator lamp turns off after a short period
of time.
Changing the Fuel Filter
Note: To drain the fuel filter, access the
underside of your vehicle.
1. Drain the fuel from the filter housing.

4. On the wall or screen you will observe
a flat zone of high intensity light
located at the top of the beam pattern.
If the top edge of the flat zone of high
intensity light is not on the horizontal
reference line, adjust the aim of the
headlamp beam. 5. Locate the vertical adjuster on each
headlamp. Use a suitable tool, for
example a screwdriver or hexagonal
socket, to turn the adjuster clockwise
or counterclockwise to adjust the
vertical aim of the headlamp. The
horizontal edge of the brighter light
should touch the horizontal reference
line.
6. Close the hood and switch off the lamps.
Horizontal Aim Adjustment
The horizontal aim of the headlamp beam
on your vehicle is not adjustable.
REMOVING A HEADLAMP WARNING
Switch all of the lamps and the
ignition off. Failure to follow this

personal injury. 1. Open the hood. See Opening and
Closing the Hood (page 211). 2. Remove the screws.
