California Fuel Filter Replacement
If you register your vehicle in California, the
California Air Resources Board has
determined that the failure to perform this
maintenance item does not nullify the
emission warranty or limit recall liability
before the completion of your vehicle's
useful life. Ford Motor Company, however,
urges you to have all recommended
maintenance services performed at the
specified intervals and to record all vehicle
service.
Hot Climate Oil Change Intervals
Vehicles operating in the Middle East,
North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa or
locations with similar climates using an
American Petroleum Institute (API)
Certified for Gasoline Engines (Certification
mark) oil of SM or SN quality, the normal
oil change interval is 3,100 mi (5,000 km).
If the available API SM or SN oils are not
available, then the oil change interval is
1,900 mi (3,000 km).
Engine Air Filter and Cabin Air Filter

The life of the engine air filter and cabin air
filter is dependent on exposure to dusty

inspection and replacement of the engine
air filter and cabin air filter.
