Keep a record for at least one month and
record the type of driving, for example city
or highway. This provides an accurate
estimate of your vehicle
’s fuel economy
under current driving conditions. Keeping
records during summer and winter shows
how temperature impacts fuel economy.
Conditions
• Heavily loading your vehicle reduces
fuel economy.
• Carrying unnecessary weight in your
vehicle may reduce fuel economy.
• Avoid adding accessories that increase
aerodynamic drag to your vehicle such
as bug deflectors, car top carriers and
ski or bike racks.
• Using fuel blended with alcohol may
lower fuel economy.
• Fuel economy may decrease with lower
temperatures.
• Fuel economy may decrease when
driving short distances.
• You will get better fuel economy when
driving on flat terrain than when driving
on hilly terrain.

GENERAL INFORMATION
The recommended tire inflation pressures
are on the tire information label on the
driver side B-pillar.
Check and set the tire pressure at the
ambient temperature in which you are
intending to drive your vehicle and when
the tires are cold. See Technical
Specifications (page 291).
Note: Check your tire pressures regularly to
optimize fuel economy.
Only use approved wheel and tire sizes.
Using other sizes could damage your
vehicle and could make the National Type
Approval invalid.
Installation of any tires that are not the
original equipment tire size can cause the
speedometer to display incorrect vehicle
speed.
TIRE SEALANT AND INFLATOR
KIT
(If Equipped)
Note: The temporary mobility kit canister
contains enough sealant compound for one
tire repair only. See your authorized Ford
dealer for additional replacement sealant
canisters.
The kit is under the load floor of the trunk.
The kit consists of an air compressor to
inflate the tire and a sealing compound in
a canister that will effectively seal most
punctures caused by nails or similar
objects. This kit will provide a temporary
tire repair allowing you to drive your vehicle
up to
120 mi (200 km) at a maximum
speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) to reach a tire
service location. Air compressor (inside)
