Peace of mind Mobile-ease娂 hands-free communication system Remote start Vehicle security systems Wheel locks For maximum vehicle performance, keep the following information in mind when adding accessories or equipment to your vehicle: • When adding accessories, equipment, passengers and luggage to your vehicle, do not exceed the total weight capacity of the vehicle or of the front or rear axle (GVWR or GAWR as indicated on the Safety Compliance Certification label). Consult your authorized dealer for specific weight information.


• The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Canadian Radio Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) regulate the use of mobile communications systems — such as two-way radios, telephones and theft alarms - that are equipped with radio transmitters. Any such equipment installed in your vehicle should comply with FCC or CRTC regulations and should be installed only by a qualified service technician.


• Mobile communications systems may harm the operation of your


vehicle, particularly if they are not properly designed for automotive use. • To avoid interference with other vehicle functions, such as anti-lock braking systems, amateur radio users who install radios and antennas onto their vehicle should not locate the Amateur Radio Antennas in the area of the driver’s side hood. • Electrical or electronic accessories or components that are added to


the vehicle by the authorized dealer or the owner may adversely affect battery performance and durability.

Scheduled Maintenance Guide


GENERAL MAINTENANCE INFORMATION


Why maintain your vehicle? This guide describes the scheduled maintenance required for your vehicle. Carefully following this schedule helps protect against major repair expenses resulting from neglect or inadequate maintenance and may also help to increase the value of your vehicle when you sell or trade it. It is your responsibility to see that all scheduled maintenance is performed and that the materials used meet Ford engineering specifications. Failure to perform scheduled maintenance specific in this guide will invalidate warranty coverage on parts affected by the lack of maintenance. Be sure receipts for completed maintenance are kept with the vehicle and confirmation of the work performed is always recorded in this guide. Your Ford or Lincoln Mercury dealer, or Ford or Lincoln Mercury Quality Care Center has factory trained technicians who can perform the required maintenance using genuine Ford parts. They are committed to meeting your service needs and to assuring your continuing satisfaction.


Protecting your investment Maintenance is an investment that will pay dividends in the form of improved reliability, durability and resale value. To ensure the proper performance of your vehicle and its emission control systems, it is imperative that scheduled maintenance be completed at the designated intervals. Your vehicle is very sophisticated and built with multiple complex performance systems. Every manufacturer develops these systems using different specifications and performance features. That’s why it’s important to rely upon your Ford or Lincoln Mercury dealership to properly diagnose and repair your vehicle. Ford Motor Company has recommended maintenance intervals for various parts and component systems based upon engineering testing. Ford Motor Company relies upon this testing to determine the most appropriate mileage for replacement of oils and fluids to protect your vehicle at the lowest overall cost to you and recommends against maintenance schedules that deviate from the scheduled maintenance information. Ford strongly recommends the use of genuine Ford replacement parts. Parts other than Ford, Motorcraft or Ford authorized remanufactured


307


2007 Escape Hybrid (ehv) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus)


Scheduled Maintenance Guide


parts that are used for maintenance replacement or for the service of components affecting emission control must be equivalent to genuine Ford Motor Company parts in performance and durability. It is the owner’s responsibility to determine the equivalency of such parts. Please consult your Warranty Guide for complete warranty information. Non-Ford approved chemicals or additives are not required for factory recommended maintenance. In fact, Ford Motor Company recommends against the use of such additive products unless specifically recommended by Ford for a particular application. Oil, fluids and flushing In many cases, fluid discoloration is a normal operating characteristic of the chemical compound and may not necessarily demonstrate that a fluid needs to be changed. Oils and fluids identified in this guide should be changed at the specified interval or in conjunction with a repair. Flushing is a viable way to change fluid for many vehicle sub-systems during scheduled maintenance and should only be done using the same fluid required to finish the maintenance procedure, or a Ford approved flushing chemical. Engine Emissions label Emissions information appears on the Engine Emissions label on the underside of the hood. This decal identifies engine displacement and provides certain engine specifications. Any modification of the emissions control system could create liability under federal law (U.S.) if made prior to sale and registration, under the laws of some states if made thereafter. Further, federal law prohibits vehicle manufacturers, dealers and other persons engaged in the business of repairing, servicing, selling, leasing or trading motor vehicles as well as fleet operations from knowingly removing or rendering an emissions control system inoperative after sale and delivery to an ultimate purchaser. In Canada, modifications of the emissions control system could create liability under applicable federal or provincial laws.

Convenience To make your service visit even more convenient, in many cases, you’ll find extended evening hours and Saturday hours. How’s that for quality service? Factory-trained Technicians Ford and Lincoln Mercury service technicians participate in extensive factory-sponsored training to help them become the experts on the operation of your vehicle. Many participate in Ford-sponsored training to become certified. Ask your dealer about the training and certification their technicians have received. Factory Authorized Systems Checks In the event that your vehicle experiences a component related concern, please contact your Ford or Lincoln Mercury dealership. The Ford Motor Company Trained Technicians who work at Ford or Lincoln Mercury dealerships are specifically trained to understand your vehicle. A proper repair begins with a thorough system check. A Factory Authorized Systems Check can ONLY be found at a Ford or Lincoln Mercury dealership. In some circumstances, the technician may need to request your authorization to perform additional operations to determine the final diagnosis. The technician’s goal is to ensure that your vehicle is fixed right the first time, at the best value to you. The following list represents several of the Factory Authorized Systems Checks available at a participating Ford or Lincoln Mercury dealers: • Air Conditioning • Check Engine Light • All Wheel Drive and 4 X 4
• Automatic Transmission • Engine Cooling and Cabin Heating • Steering and Suspension • Charge/Start/Battery • Wheel Alignment • Anti-Lock Brake System Genuine Ford and Motorcraft Replacement Parts Ford and Lincoln Mercury dealerships stock Ford and Motorcraft branded replacement parts.

Multi-point Inspection In order to keep your vehicle running right, it is important that you have the systems on your vehicle checked regularly. This can help identify any potential issue before there are any problems. Ford Motor Company suggests the following multi-point inspection to be performed at every scheduled maintenance as the way to ensure your vehicle keeps running right.


Multi-point inspection - Recommended at every visit


❑ Check and top up fluid levels: brake, engine coolant recovery reservoir, motor/electronics reservoir and window washer. ❑ Inspect tires for wear and correct air pressure. ❑ Check exhaust system for leaks, damage, loose parts and foreign materials. ❑ Check low voltage (underhood) battery performance. ❑ Check operation of horn, exterior lamps, turn signals and hazard warning lights. ❑ Check radiator, coolers and heater and air conditioning hoses. ❑ Inspect windshield washer spray and wiper operation. ❑ Check windshield for cracks, chips and pitting. ❑ Inspect for oil and fluid leaks. ❑ Inspect engine air cleaner filter and elements. ❑ Inspect half-shaft dust boots. ❑ Check shocks, struts and other suspension components for leaks and damage.
