Line Lock
Line lock is a feature intended for use attracks only and should not be used onpublic roadways. Use of this feature mayresult in significantly increased rear tirewear. It is intended to condition the reartires to maximize traction prior to track use.Line lock maintains brake force at the frontwheels, allowing the rear wheels to spinwith minimal vehicle movement.
This feature is located in the Track Appsmenu. Make selections through the 5-wayinformation display control and OK buttonlocated on the steering wheel.
Using Line Lock
There are three line lock stages:
•Initiated.

•Grained door handles.
•Side moldings.
•Mirror housings.
•Windshield cowl area.
•Do not apply wax to glass areas.
•After waxing, your car's paint shouldfeel smooth, and be free of streaks andsmudges.
CLEANING THE ENGINE -
MACH 1
Note:Do not allow water or cleaningsolutions to contact the exposed air filterelement. Cover the air filter assembly andavoid spraying water at it.
CLEANING THE ENGINE
Engines are more efficient when they areclean because grease and dirt buildup keepthe engine warmer than normal.
When washing:
•Take care when using a power washerto clean the engine. The high-pressurefluid could penetrate the sealed partsand cause damage.
•Do not spray a hot engine with coldwater to avoid cracking the engineblock or other engine components.
•Spray Motorcraft Engine Shampoo andDegreaser on all parts that requirecleaning and pressure rinse clean. InCanada, use Motorcraft EngineShampoo.
Note:If your vehicle has an engine coverremove the cover before application ofMotorcraft Engine Shampoo and Degreaser.Immediately rinse away any over spray.
•Never wash or rinse the engine while itis hot or running; water in the runningengine may cause internal damage.
•Never wash or rinse any ignition coil,spark plug wire or spark plug well, orthe area in and around these locations.
•Cover the battery, power distributionbox, and air filter assembly to preventwater damage when cleaning theengine.
Note:Do not allow water or cleaningsolutions to contact the exposed air filterelement. Cover the air filter assembly andavoid spraying water at it.

* When inflation only is requiredfor a tire or other objects, theselector must be in the Airposition.
What to do When a Tire IsPunctured
You can repair a tire puncture within thetire's tread area in two stages with the kit.
•In the first stage, inflate the tire with asealing compound and air. After youinflate the tire, you will need to drivethe vehicle a short distance 4 mi(6 km) to distribute the sealant in thetire.
•In the second stage, check the tirepressure and adjust, if necessary, to thevehicle's specified tire inflationpressure.
First Stage: Inflating the Tire withSealing Compound and Air
WARNING: Do not stand directlyover the kit while inflating the tire. If younotice any unusual bulges ordeformations in the tire's sidewall duringinflation, stop and call roadsideassistance.
WARNING: If the tire does notinflate to the recommended tire pressurewithin 15 minutes, stop and call roadsideassistance.
WARNING: Do not run the enginewhen operating the air compressorunless the vehicle is outdoors or in awell-ventilated area.
Preparation: Park the vehicle in a safe, leveland secure area, away from moving traffic.
Switch the hazard lights on. Apply theparking brake and switch the engine off.Inspect the flat tire for visible damage.
Sealant compound contains latex. Useappropriate precautions to avoid anyallergic reactions.
Do not remove any foreign object that haspierced the tire. If a puncture is in the tiresidewall, stop and call roadside assistance.
1.Remove the valve cap from the tirevalve.
2.Unwrap the dual purpose hose (blacktube) from the back of the compressorhousing.
3.Fasten the hose to the tire valve byturning the connector clockwise.Tighten the connection securely.
4.Plug the power cable into the 12-voltpower point in the vehicle.
5.Remove the warning sticker found onthe casing/housing and place it on thetop of the instrument panel or thecenter of the dash.
6.Start the vehicle and leave the enginerunning so the compressor does notdrain the vehicle’s battery.

7.Turn dial (A) clockwise to the sealantposition. Switch the kit on by pressingthe on/off button (B).
8.Inflate the tire to the pressure listed onthe tire label on the driver's door or thedoor jamb area. The initial air pressuregauge reading may indicate a valuehigher than the label pressure whileyou pump the sealing compound intothe tire. This is normal and should beno reason for concern. The pressuregauge reading will indicate the tireinflation pressure after about 30seconds of operation. You shouldcheck the final tire pressure with thecompressor turned OFF in order to getan accurate pressure reading.
9.When the tire reaches therecommended tire pressure, switch offthe kit, unplug the power cable, anddisconnect the hose from the tire valve.Re-install the valve cap on the tirevalve and return the kit to the stowagearea.
10.Immediately and cautiously, drive thevehicle 4 mi (6 km) to distribute thesealant evenly inside the tire. Do notexceed 50 mph (80 km/h).
11.After 4 mi (6 km), stop and check thetire pressure. See Second Stage:Checking Tire Pressure.

Note:If you experience any unusualvibration, ride disturbance or noise whiledriving, reduce your speed until you cansafely pull off to the side of the road to callfor roadside assistance. Note: Do notproceed to the second stage of thisoperation.
Second Stage: Checking TirePressure
Note:If you are proceeding from the FirstStage: Re-inflating the Tire with SealingCompound and Air section and haveinjected sealant in the tire and the pressureis below 20 psi (1.4 bar), continue to thenext step.
WARNING: The power plug mayget hot after use and should be handledcarefully when unplugging.
Check the air pressure of your tires asfollows:
1.Remove the valve cap from the tirevalve.
2.Firmly screw the air compressor hoseonto the valve stem by turningclockwise.
3.Push and turn the dial clockwise to theair position.
4.If required, switch on the compressorand adjust the tire to therecommended inflation pressureshown on the tire label on the driver'sdoor or door jamb area. You shouldcheck the tire pressure with thecompressor turned OFF in order to getan accurate pressure reading.
5.Unplug the hoses, re-install the valvecap on the tire and return the kit to thestowage area.
What to Do After the Tire Has BeenSealed
After using the kit to seal your tire, you willneed to replace the sealant canister. Youcan obtain sealant canisters and spareparts at an authorized dealer. You candispose of empty sealant canisters athome. However, you should dispose ofcanisters still containing liquid sealantthrough your local authorized dealer or tiredealer, or in accordance with local wastedisposal regulation.
Note:After you use the sealing compound,the maximum vehicle speed is 50 mph(80 km/h) and the maximum drivingdistance is 120 mi (200 km). You shouldinspect the sealed tire immediately.
You can check the tire pressure any timewithin the 120 mi (200 km) by performingthe steps listed previously in the SecondStage: Checking Tire Pressure procedure.
