CALIFORNIA Proposition 65 Warning

WARNING: Engine exhaust, some of its constituents, and certain vehicle components contain or emit chemicals known to the State

of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. In addition, certain fluids contained in vehicles and certain products of component wear contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. CONGRATULATIONS Congratulations on acquiring your new Ford. Please take the time to get well acquainted with your vehicle by reading this handbook. The more you know and understand about your vehicle the greater the safety and pleasure you will derive from driving it. For more information on Ford Motor Company and its products visit the following website: • In the United States: www.ford.com • In Canada: www.ford.ca • In Australia: www.ford.com.au • In Mexico: www.ford.com.mx Additional owner information is given in separate publications. This Owner’s Guide describes every option and model variant available and therefore some of the items covered may not apply to your particular vehicle. Furthermore, due to printing cycles it may describe options before they are generally available. Remember to pass on the Owner’s Guide when reselling the vehicle. It is an integral part of the vehicle.

Fuel pump shut-off switch In the event of an accident the safety switch will automatically cut off the fuel supply to the

engine. The switch can also be activated through sudden vibration (e.g. collision when parking). To reset the switch, refer to the Fuel pump shut-off switch in the Roadside emergencies chapter.

SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION

Warning symbols in this guide

How can you reduce the risk of personal injury and prevent possible damage to others, your vehicle and its equipment? In this guide, answers to such questions are contained in comments highlighted by the warning triangle symbol. These comments should be read and observed.

Introduction

Warning symbols on your vehicle

When you see this symbol, it is imperative that you consult the relevant section of this guide before touching or attempting adjustment of any kind.

Protecting the environment We must all play our part in protecting the environment. Correct vehicle usage and the authorized disposal of waste cleaning and lubrication materials are significant steps towards this aim. Information in this respect is highlighted in this guide with the tree symbol. SPECIAL NOTICES Special instructions For your added safety, your vehicle is fitted with sophisticated electronic controls.

By operating other electronic equipment (e.g. mobile telephone without exterior aerial) electromagnetic fields can occur which

can cause malfunctions of the vehicle electronics. Therefore you should observe the instructions of the equipment manufacturers.

Please read the section Air bag in the Seating and safety restraints chapter. Failure to follow the specific warnings and

instructions could result in personal injury.

Front seat mounted rear-facing child or infant seats should NEVER be used in front of a passenger side air bag.

MIDDLE EAST/NORTH AFRICA VEHICLE SPECIFIC INFORMATION For your particular global region, your vehicle may be equipped with features and options that are different from the ones that are described in this Owner Guide; therefore, a supplement has been supplied that complements this book. By referring to the pages in the provided supplement, you can properly identify those features, recommendations and specifications that are unique to your vehicle. Refer to this Owner Guide for all other required information and warnings.

Warning lights and gauges can alert you to a vehicle condition that may become serious enough to cause expensive repairs. A warning light may illuminate when a problem exists with one of your vehicle’s functions. Many lights will illuminate when you start your vehicle to make sure the bulb works. If any light remains on after starting the vehicle, have the respective system inspected immediately. Check engine: If this light illuminates while driving, it is a possible indication that one of the engine’s emission control systems has failed. Check fuel cap: Illuminates when the fuel cap may not be properly installed. Continued driving with this light on may cause the Check Engine warning light to come on. Brake system warning light: Illuminates if the parking brake is engaged or to indicate low brake fluid level. To confirm the brake system warning light is functional, it will momentarily illuminate when the ignition is turned to the ON position (alternatively for some vehicles when the ignition is moved from the ON position to the START position, the light will momentarily illuminate prior to reaching the START position).

Power down back window To operate the power down back window, the ignition switch must be in the Run or Accessory position. The power down back window has three window position selections: • Fully open • Vent • Fully closed Turn control counter-clockwise and release to lower window all the way to the full open position.

All rear seat occupants and/or cargo must be properly restrained and clear of the back window opening before operating the

Turn control clockwise and release to raise the window all the way to the full closed position.

If the window is already in the vent position and the control is pressed, no movement will occur.

Normal Operation If an “up” command is selected and the ignition is switched to OFF or START during window travel, the window will: • stop if it is between the vent position and fully closed or • continue to move up to the vent position if it is between vent and fully

open.

If a “down” or “vent” command is selected and the ignition is switched to OFF or START during window travel, the window will move to the fully open or vent position and then stop. The “down” command is the only one allowed after the ignition has been switched to OFF or START while the window is moving. Bounce-Back When the back window is moving upward and an obstacle interferes with the window’s movement, the back window will reverse direction and move toward the fully open position. This is known as “bounce-back”. Security Override If, during a bounce-back condition, the control is held in the clockwise (“up”) direction for at least two seconds, the back window will travel up with no bounce-back protection. If the control is released before the window reaches fully closed or the ignition is switched to OFF or START, the back window will reverse direction with bounce-back re-enabled. The following are possible reasons for using the security override: • Ice on the window causing a restriction. • Window unexpectedly reverses. Position recovery mode If the window fails to operate in “normal” operation mode, the control can be turned and held in the active position (up or down window direction) which will move the window in increments of approximately 15mm (0.6 inches) in the selected direction. (The “vent” feature is inoperable in this mode.) This feature allows the window to be closed. Once the window has reached the full closed position, the window should again operate in the “normal” operation mode. If the window still does not operate correctly, see your dealer for service.
