MANUAL CLIMATE CONTROL
Fan speed control: Controls the
volume of air circulated in your
vehicle. Adjust to select the
desired fan speed or switch off.
If you switch the fan off, the
windshield may fog up.
A
Recirculated air: Press the
button to switch between
outside air and recirculated air.
When you select recirculated air,
the air currently in the passenger
compartment recirculates. This
can reduce the time needed to
cool the interior, when used with
A/C
, and reduce unwanted
odors from entering your vehicle.
B
Note:
Recirculation air may turn
off automatically, or be
prevented from turning on in all
airflow modes except MAX A/C
to reduce risk of fogging.
Recirculated air may also turn on
and off automatically in
instrument panel or instrument
panel and floor airflow modes
during hot weather to improve
cooling efficiency. Temperature control: Controls
the temperature of the air
circulated in your vehicle. Adjust
to select the desired
temperature. If you select
MAX
A/C, the system distributes
C
recirculated air through the
instrument panel air vents. This
mode is more economical and
efficient than normal air
conditioning. Turn the
temperature control to
maximum heat to turn the
auxiliary heater on
Air conditioning:
Press the
button to switch the air
conditioning on or off. To
improve air conditioning when
starting your vehicle, drive with
the windows open for two to
three minutes.
D
Air distribution control:
Adjust
to select the desired air
distribution.
E Select to distribute air through
the instrument panel air vents.

12 Volt DC Power Point
WARNING: Do not plug optional
electrical accessories into the cigar lighter
socket. Incorrect use of the cigar lighter
can cause damage not covered by the
vehicle warranty, and can result in fire or
serious injury. WARNING:
Do not use a power
point for operating a cigar lighter. Incorrect
use of the power points can cause damage
not covered by the vehicle warranty, and
can result in fire or serious injury.
Note: When you switch the ignition on, you
can use the socket to power 12 volt
appliances with a maximum current rating
of 15 amps.
If the power supply does not work after you
switch the ignition off, switch the ignition
on.
Note: Do not hang any accessory from the
accessory plug.
Note: Do not use the power point over the
vehicle capacity of 12 volt DC 180 watts or
a fuse may blow.
Note: Always keep the power point caps
closed when not in use.
Do not insert objects other than an
accessory plug into the power point. This
will damage the power point and blow the
fuse.
Run the vehicle for full capacity use of the
power point. To prevent the battery from running out of
charge:
•
Do not use the power point longer than
necessary when the vehicle is not
running.
• Do not leave devices plugged in
overnight or when you park your vehicle
for extended periods.
Locations Power points may be in the following
locations:
•
On the instrument panel.
• Inside the cargo area.
AC Power Point
(If Equipped) WARNING:
Do not keep electrical
devices plugged in the power point
whenever the device is not in use. Do not
use any extension cord with the 110 volt AC
power point, since it will defeat the safety
protection design. Doing so may cause the
power point to overload due to powering
multiple devices that can reach beyond
the 150 watt load limit and could result in
fire or serious injury.
Note: The power point will turn off when
the ignition is switched off or the battery
voltage drops below 11 volts.
122
2018 Transit (TTH) Canada/United States of America, JK3J 19A321 AA enUSA, Edition date: 201705, Third-Printing- Auxiliary Power PointsE185878

Use the power point for powering electric
devices that require up to 150 watts. It is
under the parking brake lever.
When the indicator light on the power point
is:
•
On: The power point is working, the
ignition is on and a device is plugged
in.
• Off: The power point is off, the ignition
is off or no device is plugged in.
• Flashing: The power point is in fault
mode.
The power outlet temporarily turns off
power when in fault mode if the device
exceeds the 150 watt limit. Unplug your
device and switch the ignition off. Switch
the ignition back on, but do not plug your
device back in. Let the system cool off and
switch the ignition off to reset the fault
mode. Switch the ignition back on and
make sure the indicator light remains on.
Do not use the power point for certain
electric devices, including:
• Cathode-ray, tube-type televisions.
• Motor loads, such as vacuum cleaners,
electric saws and other electric power
tools or compressor-driven
refrigerators. •
Measuring devices, which process
precise data, such as medical
equipment or measuring equipment.
• Other appliances requiring an
extremely stable power supply such as
microcomputer-controlled electric
blankets or touch-sensor lamps.
CIGAR LIGHTER WARNING: Do not plug optional
electrical accessories into the cigar lighter
socket. Incorrect use of the cigar lighter
can cause damage not covered by the
vehicle warranty, and can result in fire or
serious injury. Press the element in to use the cigar
lighter. It pops out after a short period of
time.
Do not hold the cigar lighter element
pressed in.
Note:
If the power supply does not work
after you switch the ignition off, switch the
ignition on.
Note: If you use the socket when the engine
is not running, the battery may run out of
charge.

BREAKING-IN
You need to break in new tires for
approximately 300 mi (480 km). During
this time, your vehicle may exhibit some
unusual driving characteristics. The engine
also needs to break in. Avoid hard
accelerations and driving too fast for the
first 1,000 mi (1,600 km). If possible, avoid
carrying heavy loads up steep grades
during the break-in period.
REDUCED ENGINE
PERFORMANCE WARNING:
If you continue to drive
your vehicle when the engine is
overheating, the engine could stop without
warning. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in the loss of control of your
vehicle.
If the engine coolant temperature gauge
needle moves to the upper limit position,
the engine is overheating. See
Gauges
(page 93).
You must only drive your vehicle for a short
distance if the engine overheats. The
distance you can travel depends on
ambient temperature, vehicle load and
terrain. The engine continues to operate
with limited power for a short period of
time.
If the engine temperature continues to rise,
the fuel supply to the engine reduces. The
air conditioning switches off and the engine
cooling fan operates continually.
1. Gradually reduce your speed and stop your vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so.
2. Immediately switch the engine off to prevent severe engine damage.
3. Wait for the engine to cool down. 4. Check the coolant level. See
Engine
Coolant Check (page 236).
5. Have your vehicle checked as soon as possible.
ECONOMICAL DRIVING
The following helps to improve fuel
consumption:
• Regularly check your tire pressures and
make sure that they are inflated to the
correct pressure.
• Follow the recommended maintenance
schedule and carry out the
recommended checks.
• Plan your journey and check the traffic
before you set off.
• Avoid idling the engine in cold weather
or for extended periods. Start the
engine only when you are ready to set
off.
• Do not carry unnecessary weight in your
vehicle as extra weight wastes fuel.
• Do not add unnecessary accessories
to the exterior of your vehicle, for
example running boards. If you use a
roof rack, remember to fold it down or
remove it when not in use.
• Drive smoothly, accelerate gently and
anticipate the road ahead to avoid
heavy braking.
• Switch off all electric systems when
not in use, for example air conditioning.
Make sure that you unplug any
accessories from the auxiliary power
points when not in use.
COLD WEATHER
PRECAUTIONS
The functional operation of some
components and systems can be affected
at temperatures below
-13°F (-25°C).
