LOAD CARRYING PRECAUTIONS
Keep your loaded vehicle weight within
its design rating capability, with or
without a trailer. Properly loading your
vehicle provides maximum return of
vehicle design performance. Before you
load your vehicle, become familiar with
the following terms for determining your
vehicle
’s weight rating, with or without
a trailer, from the vehicle ’s Tire and
Loading Information label or Safety
Compliance Certification label. WARNING: The appropriate
loading capacity of your vehicle can
be limited either by volume capacity
(how much space is available) or by
payload capacity (how much weight
the vehicle should carry). Once you
have reached the maximum payload
of your vehicle, do not add more
cargo, even if there is space available.
Overloading or improperly loading
your vehicle can contribute to loss of
vehicle control and vehicle rollover. WARNING: Exceeding the Safety
Compliance Certification label vehicle
weight limits can adversely affect the
performance and handling of your
vehicle, cause vehicle damage and
can result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, serious personal injury or
death. WARNING:
Do not use
replacement tires with lower load
carrying capacities than the original
tires because they may lower your
vehicle's GVWR and GAWR limitations.
Replacement tires with a higher limit
than the original tires do not increase
the GVWR and GAWR limitations. WARNING:
Do not exceed the
GVWR or the GAWR specified on the
certification label. WARNING:
Exceeding any
vehicle weight rating can adversely
affect the performance and handling
of your vehicle, cause vehicle damage
and can result in the loss of control of
your vehicle, serious personal injury
or death. WARNING:
When loading the
roof racks, we recommend you evenly
distribute the load, as well as maintain
a low center of gravity. Loaded
vehicles, with higher centers of gravity,
may handle differently than unloaded
vehicles. Take extra precautions, such
as slower speeds and increased
stopping distance, when driving a
heavily loaded vehicle.
The gross combined weight must never
exceed the Gross Combined Weight
Rating.

ROOF RACK
ROOF RACK PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Read and follow the
manufacturer's instructions when you are
fitting a roof rack. WARNING:
When loading the roof
racks, we recommend you evenly distribute
the load, as well as maintain a low center
of gravity. Loaded vehicles, with higher
centers of gravity, may handle differently
than unloaded vehicles. Take extra
precautions, such as slower speeds and
increased stopping distance, when driving
a heavily loaded vehicle.
Note: If you use a roof rack, the fuel
consumption of your vehicle will be higher
and you may experience different driving
characteristics. You must place loads directly on the
crossbars fitted to the roof rack side rails.
When using the roof rack system, we
recommend that you use genuine Ford Motor
Company accessory crossbars specifically
designed for your vehicle.
Make sure that you securely fasten the load.
Check the tightness of the load before
driving and at each fuel stop.
ROOF RACK LOAD CAPACITIES
Do not install crossbars if your vehicle has a
moonroof. Do not place any load on your
vehicle if it has a moonroof. Using crossbars
or loading the vehicle roof may void your
vehicle's warranty.
Maximum Recommended Load
Description
100 lb (45 kg)
Vehicles with a moonroof.
175 lb (79 kg)
Vehicles without a moonroof.
Note: The maximum roof load is based on
evenly distributing the load on the crossbars.

Note:
When using a roof rack system, you
must subtract the weight of the roof rack
system from the maximum recommended
load to determine your actual maximum
cargo load. See the roof rack system
manufacturer for more information.

BREAKING-IN
Your vehicle requires a break-in period. For
the first 1,000 mi (1,600 km), avoid driving at
high speeds, heavy braking, aggressive
shifting or using your vehicle to tow. During
this time, your vehicle may exhibit some
unusual driving characteristics.
DRIVING ECONOMICALLY
The following helps to improve fuel
consumption:
•
Drive smoothly, accelerate gently and
anticipate the road ahead to avoid heavy
braking.
• 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. It is more efficient to
combine errands into a single trip
whenever possible. •
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.
• Do not shift into neutral when you are
braking or when your vehicle is slowing
down.
• Shut all windows when driving at high
speeds.
• 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. DRIVING IN SPECIAL CONDITIONS
EMERGENCY MANEUVERS
In an unavoidable emergency where you
must make a sudden sharp maneuver, turn
the steering wheel only as rapidly and as far
as required to avoid the emergency. Apply
smooth pressure to the accelerator pedal or
brake pedal as needed. Avoid abrupt
steering, acceleration and braking changes.
Abrupt changes could increase the risk of
vehicle roll over, loss of vehicle control and
personal injury. If possible, use any available
road surfaces to bring your vehicle under
control.

and a mild soap and water solution.
Note: The moonroof rail tracks are greased
to maintain proper functionality. Do not wipe
off the grease.
REPAIRING MINOR PAINT
DAMAGE
Authorized dealers have touch-up paint to
match your vehicle ’s color. Your vehicle
color code is printed on a sticker on the front,
left-hand side door jamb. Take your color
code to your authorized dealer to make sure
you get the correct color.
Before repairing minor paint damage, use a
cleaner to remove particles such as bird
droppings, tree sap, insect deposits, tar
spots, road salt and industrial fallout. Read the instructions before using cleaning
products.
WAXING YOUR VEHICLE
Wax the high-gloss painted surface of your
prewashed vehicle once or twice a year.
We recommend that you only use an
approved quality wax that does not contain
abrasives. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions to apply and remove the wax.
For additional information and assistance,
we recommend that you contact an
authorized dealer.
When washing and waxing, park your vehicle
in a shaded area out of direct sunlight.
Note:
Avoid waxing unpainted or low-gloss
black colored parts, they discolor over time.

SATELLITE RADIO (IF EQUIPPED)
WHAT IS SATELLITE RADIO
Your factory-installed SiriusXM radio system
includes a limited subscription term, which
begins on the date of sale or lease of your
vehicle. See an authorized dealer for
availability. For additional information about extended
subscription terms, visit
www .Sirius XM. com
in the United States, www .Sirius XM. ca in
Canada, or call SiriusXM at 1-888-539-7474.
Note: SiriusXM reserves the unrestricted
right to change, rearrange, add or delete
programming including canceling, moving
or adding particular channels, and its prices,
at any time, with or without notice to you.
Neither SiriusXM and its affiliates nor Ford
Motor Company and its affiliates will be
liable to you or any third party for any such
modification, suspension or termination.
SATELLITE RADIO LIMITATIONS
For optimal reception performance, keep the
antenna clear of snow and ice build-up and
keep luggage and other material as far away
from the antenna as possible. Placing
luggage over the antenna may reduce
performance. Factory-installed and
aftermarket vehicle structures including, but
not limited to, roof racks and soft top roofs
in a partially open position could reduce
reception performance. Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges,
tunnels, freeway overpasses, parking
garages, dense tree foliage and
thunderstorms can interfere with your
reception.
When you pass a ground-based
broadcast-repeating tower, a stronger signal
may overtake a weaker one and could result
in the audio system muting. Your display
could show an error message to indicate the
interference.
LOCATING THE SATELLITE RADIO
IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
