If your backless booster seat has aremovable shield, remove the shield. If avehicle seating position has a low seatbackrest or no head restraint, a backlessbooster seat may place your child's head(as measured at the tops of the ears)above the top of the seat. In this case,move the backless booster to anotherseating position with a higher seat backrestor head restraint and lap and shoulderbelts, or consider using a high back boosterseat.
•High back booster seats
If, with a backless booster seat, you cannotfind a seating position that adequatelysupports your child's head, a high backbooster seat would be a better choice.
Children and booster seats vary in size andshape. Choose a booster that keeps thelap belt low and snug across the hips,never up across the stomach, and lets youadjust the shoulder belt to cross the chestand rest snugly near the center of theshoulder. The following drawings comparethe ideal fit (center) to a shoulder beltuncomfortably close to the neck and ashoulder belt that could slip off theshoulder. The drawings also show how thelap belt should be low and snug across thechild's hips.

•Safety belt pretensioner at the frontoutboard seating positions.
•Safety belt warning light and chime.
FASTENING THE SEATBELTS
The front outboard and rear safetyrestraints in the vehicle are combinationlap and shoulder belts.
1.Insert the belt tongue into the properbuckle (the buckle closest to thedirection the tongue is coming from)until you hear a snap and feel it latch.Make sure you securely fasten thetongue in the buckle.
2.To unfasten, press the release buttonand remove the tongue from thebuckle.
Using the Seatbelt with CinchTongue (Front Center and RearCenter Seats Only)
The cinch tongue slides up and down thebelt webbing when the belt is stowed orwhile putting seatbelts on. When the lapand shoulder seatbelt is buckled, the cinchtongue allows the lap portion to beshortened, but pinches the webbing tokeep the lap portion from getting longer.The cinch tongue is designed to slip duringa crash, so always wear the shoulder beltproperly and do not allow any slack ineither the lap or shoulder portions.
Before you can reach and latch a lap andshoulder belt having a cinch tongue intothe buckle, you may have to lengthen thelap belt portion of it.
1.To lengthen the lap belt, pull somewebbing out of the shoulder beltretractor.
2.While holding the webbing below thetongue, grasp the tip (metal portion)of the tongue so that it is parallel to thewebbing and slide the tongue upward.
3.Provide enough lap belt length so thatthe tongue can reach the buckle.

1.Remove the diesel exhaust fluidcontainer cap. Place the spout onto thecontainer and tighten until you feel astrong resistance.
2.Remove the diesel exhaust fluid tankfiller cap.
3.Insert the spout into the filler neck untilthe seal on the spout seats onto thefiller neck. Pour the fluid into the tank.When the tank is full the fluid stops. Incase of direct fill tank, the spout doesnot seal against the fill tank interfaceand does not stop the flowingautomatically.
4.Return the container to the verticalposition slightly below the dieselexhaust fluid filler neck. Allow any fluidremaining in the spout to drain backinto the container.
5.Remove the spout from the dieselexhaust fluid filler neck. Replace thediesel exhaust fluid tank cap.
6.Remove the spout from the dieselexhaust fluid container and replace thecap.
Note:If there is diesel exhaust fluid left inthe container retain it for later use. Thespout is reusable. Wash the spout withclean water prior to storage. Do not use thediesel exhaust fluid spout with any otherfluid.
Filling the Diesel Exhaust Fluid Tank inCold Climates
Diesel exhaust fluid freezes if the ambienttemperature is below 12°F (-11°C). Yourvehicle has a preheating system whichallows diesel exhaust fluid to operatebelow 12°F (-11°C). If you do not use yourvehicle for an extended period when theambient temperature is below 12°F (-11°C),the fluid in the tank freezes. If the tank isoverfilled and the fluid freezes it maydamage the tank. This is not covered bythe vehicle warranty.
Note: If the diesel exhaust fluid tank isfrozen, it may not recognize when the tankis refilled. The diesel exhaust fluid levelupdates once the tank thaws out.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid WarningMessages and Vehicle Operations
WARNING: Diesel exhaust fluidmust be refilled when low or replacedwhen contaminated or your vehiclespeed becomes limited to 50 mph(80 km/h). In these conditions, drive withcaution and refill diesel exhaust fluidimmediately. If the diesel exhaust fluidbecomes empty or contaminated andfluid is not replaced, your vehiclebecomes limited to engine idle only oncestopped. In these conditions, be cautiouswhere you stop your vehicle because youmay not be able to drive long distancesor maintain highway speeds until yourefill or replace the diesel exhaust fluid.
Note:Drain and replace diluted dieselexhaust fluid.
WARNING: Tampering with ordisabling the selective catalyticreduction system results in severevehicle performance limitation includingeventual speed limiting to 5 mph(8 km/h).
A systems check displays messagesindicating the amount of diesel exhaustfluid available or displays a warningmessage indicating the approximatedistance remaining as the fluid in the dieselexhaust fluid tank nears empty. SeeInformation Messages (page 75).

Note:Battery posts, terminals and relatedaccessories contain lead and leadcompounds. Wash hands after handling.
Note:Electrical or electronic accessoriesor components added to the vehicle by thedealer or the owner may adversely affectbattery performance and durability.
Your vehicle is equipped with a Motorcraftmaintenance-free battery which normallydoes not require additional water duringits life of service.
For longer, trouble-free operation, keep thetop of the battery clean and dry. Also,make certain the battery cables are alwaystightly fastened to the battery terminals.
If you see any corrosion on the battery orterminals, remove the cables from theterminals and clean with a wire brush. Youcan neutralize the acid with a solution ofbaking soda and water.
It is recommended that the negativebattery cable terminal be disconnectedfrom the battery if you plan to store yourvehicle for an extended period of time.
Because your vehicle’s engine iselectronically controlled by a computer,some control conditions are maintainedby power from the battery. When thebattery is disconnected or a new batteryis installed, the engine must relearn its idleand fuel trim strategy for optimumdriveability and performance. To begin thisprocess
1.With the vehicle at a complete stop,set the parking brake.
2.Put the gearshift in park (P) or neutral(N) and turn off all accessories.
3.Start the engine. Run the engine untilit reaches normal operatingtemperature.
4.Allow the engine to idle for at least oneminute.
5.Turn the air conditioning (if equipped)on and allow the engine to idle for atleast one minute.
6.Release the parking brake. With yourfoot on the brake pedal and with theair conditioning on, put the vehicle indrive (D) and allow the engine to idlefor at least one minute.
•If you do not allow the engine torelearn its idle trim, the idle qualityof your vehicle may be adverselyaffected until the idle trim iseventually relearned.
7.Drive the vehicle to complete therelearning process
•The vehicle may need to be driven10 mi (16 km) or more to relearn theidle and fuel trim strategy alongwith the ethanol content for flexiblefuel vehicles.
If the battery has been disconnected or anew battery has been installed, the clockand radio settings must be reset once thebattery is reconnected.
Always dispose of automotivebatteries in a responsible manner.Follow your local authorized standardsfor disposal. Call your local authorizedrecycling center to find out more aboutrecycling automotive batteries.
Battery Management System (IfEquipped)
The battery management system (BMS)monitors battery conditions and takesactions to extend battery life. If excessivebattery drain is detected, the system maytemporarily disable certain electricalfeatures to protect the battery. Thoseelectrical accessories affected include therear defrost, heated/cooled seats, climatecontrol fan, heated steering wheel, audioand navigation system.
