GETTING ASSISTANCE
OUTSIDE THE U.S. AND
CANADA
Before exporting your vehicle to a foreign
country, contact the appropriate foreign
embassy or consulate. These officials can
inform you of local vehicle registration
regulations and where to find unleaded
fuel or petrol/gas engines or the proper
sulfur fuel for diesel engines.
If you cannot find the proper fuel
recommended for your vehicle, contact
our Customer Relationship Center.
The use of improper fuels in your vehicle
without proper conversion may damage
the effectiveness of your emission control
system and may cause engine knocking or
serious engine damage. Ford Motor
Company or Ford of Canada is not
responsible for any damage caused by use
of improper fuel. Using improper fuels may
also result in difficulty importing your
vehicle back into the United States.
If your vehicle must be serviced while you
are traveling or living in Asia-Pacific Region,

and/or Puerto Rico, Central America, the
Caribbean, and Israel and the Middle East,

fuses. WARNING:
To reduce risk of
electrical shock, always replace the

ENGINE OIL CHECK
1. Make sure that your vehicle is on level ground.
2. Check the oil level before starting the engine, or switch the engine off after
warm up and wait 10 minutes for the
oil to drain into the oil pan.
3. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean, lint-free cloth.
4. Reinstall the dipstick and make sure it is fully seated.
5. Remove the dipstick again to check the
oil level.
Note: If the oil level is between the
maximum and minimum marks, the oil level
is acceptable. Do not add oil.
6. If the oil level is at the minimum mark, immediately add oil.
7. Reinstall the dipstick. Make sure it is fully seated.
Note: The oil consumption of new engines
reaches its normal level after approximately
3,000 mi (5,000 km). Adding Engine Oil WARNING:
Do not add engine oil
when the engine is hot. Failure to follow
this instruction could result in personal
injury. WARNING: Do not remove the filler
cap when the engine is running.
Do not use supplemental engine oil
additives because they are unnecessary
and could lead to engine damage that the
vehicle warranty may not cover.
1. Clean the area surrounding the engine oil filler cap before you remove it.
2. Remove the engine oil filler cap.
3. Add engine oil that meets our specifications. See
Capacities and
Specifications (page 223).
4. Reinstall the engine oil filler cap. Turn it clockwise until you feel a strong
resistance.
Note: Do not add oil further than the
maximum mark. Oil levels above the
maximum mark may cause engine damage.
Note: Immediately soak up any oil spillage
with an absorbent cloth.
Engine Oil Pressure Warning Lamp WARNING:
If it illuminates when
you are driving do not continue your
journey, even if the oil level is correct.
Have your vehicle checked. It illuminates when you switch
the ignition on.
167
E-Series (TE4) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202010, Second-Printing MaintenanceE161560
If it illuminates when the engine is running
this indicates a malfunction. Stop your
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so and
switch the engine off. Check the engine oil
level. If the oil level is sufficient, this
indicates a system malfunction. Have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible.

CHANGING THE ENGINE AIR
FILTER WARNING:
To reduce the risk of
vehicle damage and personal burn
injuries, do not start your engine with the
air cleaner removed and do not remove
it while the engine is running.
168
E-Series (TE4) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202010, Second-Printing Maintenance
Note:
Failure to use the correct air filter
element may result in severe engine
damage. The customer warranty may be
void for any damage to the engine if the
correct air filter element is not used.
When changing the air filter element, use
only the air filter element listed. See
Motorcraft Parts (page 223). The air filter
element should be replaced at the
appropriate intervals. See Normal
Scheduled Maintenance (page 254). 1. Release the clips (x2) that secure the
two halves of the air filter housing
together. 2. Carefully separate the two halves of
the air filter housing.
3. Remove the air filter element from the
housing. 4. Install the new filter element. Be
careful to put the filter seal on top of
the tray, making sure that the seal is
not pushed down into the tray. This
could cause filter damage and allow
unfiltered air to enter the engine if not
properly seated.
5. Install the air filter housing cover. Use special care to ensure that the air
cleaner cover is reinstalled correctly.
Verify that the tabs at the rear of the
air cleaner housing cover are fully
inserted into the slots at the rear of the
air cleaner housing tray.
6. Secure the air filter housing clips (x2).
ENGINE COOLANT CHECK WARNING:
Do not remove the
coolant reservoir cap when the engine is
on or the cooling system is hot. Wait 10
minutes for the cooling system to cool
down. Cover the coolant reservoir cap
with a thick cloth to prevent the
possibility of scalding and slowly remove
the cap. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in personal injury. WARNING:
Do not put coolant in
the windshield washer reservoir. If
sprayed on the windshield, coolant could
make it difficult to see through the
windshield. WARNING:
To reduce the risk of
personal injury, make sure the engine is
cool before unscrewing the coolant
pressure relief cap. The cooling system
is under pressure. Steam and hot liquid
can come out forcefully when you loosen
the cap slightly. WARNING:
Do not add coolant
further than the MAX mark.
