This light should come on as you start the vehicle. If it doesn’t come on then, have it fixed so it will be ready to warn you if there’s a problem.
Brake system and parking brake light This light comes on briefly when you turn the ignition key to START. It normally goes off shortly after the engine starts and you release the parking brake, but it may stay on for up to 60 seconds. If the light stays on for longer than 60 seconds or comes on after you have fully released the parking brake, have the hydraulic brake system serviced. This light will also come on if the parking brake does not release fully. If it does stay on after the parking brake is fully released, it means there may be a brake problem. Pull off the road and stop carefully. You may notice that the pedal is harder to push, the pedal may go closer to the floor, or it may take longer to stop the vehicle. Try the brakes again after you have stopped.
RWARNING
The BRAKE light indicates that the brakes may not be working properly. Have the brakes checked immediately.

The anti-lock brake system warning light
RWARNING
If the anti-lock brake system warning light remains on or comes on while driving, have the braking system checked by a qualified service technician as soon as possible.
NOTE: If a fault occurs in the anti-lock
system, and the brake warning light is not lit, the anti-lock system is disabled but normal brake function remains operational.
NOTE: If your vehicle must be jump-started
because of a low battery, the anti-lock brake system warning light could remain on. This is due to low battery voltage and does not indicate a malfunction in the system. Under these circumstances, you should drive your vehicle only after the battery has had time to charge and the light has gone out.

This light comes on briefly when you turn the ignition to the ON position, but should turn off when the engine starts. If the light does not come on when you turn the ignition to the ON position or if it comes on and stays on when you are driving, have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible. This indicates a possible problem with one of the engine’s emission control systems. You do not need to have your vehicle towed in. If the light turns on and off briefly while you are driving, it means that the condition is no longer present. O/D OFF Light (If equipped) This light tells you that the overdrive off (O/D OFF) button on the shift selector has been pushed. When the light is on, the transaxle will not shift into overdrive. Depressing the button on the shift selector again will return the vehicle to “overdrive on” mode. The transaxle will be in the “overdrive on” mode when the vehicle is started even if the O/D OFF mode was selected when the vehicle was last shut off. If the light does not come on when the O/D OFF button is pressed, or if the light flashes when you are driving, have your vehicle serviced at the first opportunity. If this condition persists, damage could occur to the transaxle.

Gauges Fuel Gauge The fuel gauge displays approximately how much fuel you have in the fuel tank. The ignition must be turned off while putting fuel in the tank in order to get a correct fuel gauge reading after the ignition is turned on. The fuel gauge indicator may vary slightly while the vehicle is in motion. This is the result of fuel movement within the tank. You can get a more accurate reading with the vehicle on smooth, level ground. Charging System Gauge This gauge tells you your battery’s voltage when you turn your ignition key to ON. When you start your engine, the pointer should move to the NORMAL range if you are not operating any electrical accessories. (If electrical accessories are operating and the engine is not running, the pointer may move into the red area). If the pointer moves into the red area when no electrical accessories are operating, have the vehicle’s electrical system checked. Engine Oil Pressure Gauge The gauge needle should stay in the NORMAL range (indicating normal engine oil pressure). If the needle drops below the NORMAL range into the low range, there is a loss of oil pressure. If this happens: 1. Pull off the road as soon as safely possible. 2. Shut off the engine immediately or severe
engine damage could result.

3. Check the oil level when the vehicle is on
level ground.
4. Add only as much oil as the engine needs before you drive the vehicle again. Do not overfill the oil reservoir. For more information, see Adding engine oil in the Index.
Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge This gauge indicates the temperature of the engine coolant, not the coolant level. If the coolant is not at its proper level or mixture, the gauge indication will not be accurate. The pointer usually moves from C (cold) into the NORMAL band as your vehicle warms up. Under most driving conditions, the pointer should stay in the NORMAL band. If you are driving in heavy traffic or on an extended grade in hot weather, the pointer may reach to the top of the NORMAL band. If, under any circumstances, the pointer moves above the NORMAL band, the engine coolant is overheating and continued operation may cause engine damage. If your engine coolant overheats: 1. Pull off the road as soon as it is safely
possible.
2. Shut off the engine immediately or severe
engine damage could result.
3. Let the engine cool. 4. Check the coolant level following the
instructions on checking and adding coolant to your engine. (See Engine coolant in the Index.) If you do not follow these instructions, you or others could be injured.

Speedometer The speedometer tells you how many miles (kilometers) per hour your vehicle is moving. Odometer The odometer tells you the total number of miles (kilometers) your vehicle has been driven. Trip Odometer Use the trip odometer to track your mileage. Simply set the trip odometer to zero by pressing the reset button. Tachometer The tachometer indicates approximate engine revolutions per minute, and is located on the right-hand side of the instrument cluster. The tachometer pointer may move slightly when the key is placed in the ACC or ON position, with the engine off. This pointer movement is normal, and will not affect the accuracy of the tachometer once the engine is running.

Tips for Controlling the Temperature in Your Vehicle q To vary the temperature inside your vehicle, move the temperature selector toward the red area for warmer air and toward the blue area for cooler air. If you drive with the fan off and the windows closed, the windows may fog up. To prevent fogging:
1. Set the function selector control to VENT,
MIX, FLOOR or the V position.
2. Set the desired temperature. 3. Set the desired fan speed. q Do not put objects under the front seats that will interfere with the flow of air to the back seats.
q Remove any snow, ice, or leaves from the
area below the windshield on the outside of your vehicle. They could block the air intake.

Sometimes you may notice slight engine surging if you have the air conditioner on. This is normal, as the system is designed to cycle the compressor on and off to maintain desired cooling. The reduced compressor operation should benefit fuel economy. On some vehicles with air conditioning, wide-open throttle acceleration will temporarily cut off the air conditioning. Since the air conditioner removes a lot of moisture from the air during operation, it is normal for water to drip on the pavement under the air conditioner drain after you have stopped the vehicle. Action for heating and windshield defrosting are identical for cars equipped with either the Heating Only System or the Heating and Air Conditioning System. For instructions about these functions, see the previous section, Heating Only System. For instructions about using the air conditioning, see the following sections. MAX A/C When MAX A/C is selected, cooled interior air is recirculated through the system. This position is more efficient than NORM A/C. To cool your vehicle quickly in warm weather: 1. Turn the function selector control to MAX
A/C.
2. Turn the temperature control to the blue
(cool) area.
3. Set the fan at the desired speed.
If the inside of your vehicle is very warm, drive for a few minutes with the windows down. This forces most of the hot, stale air out of the vehicle and helps the air conditioning cool the vehicle faster.

Because MAX A/C uses recirculated air, MAX is usually more efficient than NORM A/C. You can switch to outside air (NORM A/C) at any time, especially after the vehicle has cooled down. You will notice a slight odor when using the MAX A/C position. This is normal. If the odor becomes annoying, switch the function selector to NORM A/C. To provide the most quiet operation when using MAX A/C, reduce the fan speed after a comfortable temperature has been reached. NORM A/C When maximum air conditioning is not needed, you can use the NORM A/C position to cool your vehicle with outside air. Cooling your vehicle this way brings in outside air and is quieter, but it is less efficient. To cool your vehicle using outside air: 1. Turn the function selector control to NORM
A/C.
2. Turn the temperature control all the way to
left to the blue (cool) area.
3. Set the fan at the desired speed. In mild weather, setting the function selector control in the VENT position will add cool air to your vehicle without using the air conditioning. You will get better fuel economy without using the air conditioning.

Engine Idle Speed Control System Genuine Ford air conditioning (either factory-installed or dealer-installed) has an engine idle speed control system that compensates for engine speed loss that may occur when the air conditioning compressor is running. This idle speed control holds the engine idle essentially constant, regardless of whether the air conditioning system is on or off. NOTE: Whenever service to the air
conditioning system is required, make sure the service facility uses a refrigerant recycling system. These systems will capture the refrigerant for reuse. Releasing certain refrigerants into the atmosphere is hazardous to the environment.

Raising the Headlamps Manually If the power headlamp door system becomes inoperative, your vehicle has a manual retractor system that allows you to raise the headlamps manually (the headlamps will not turn on). The retractors are located under the hood and behind each headlamp. Remove the cap and turn the knob. Each headlamp must be raised separately. Before using the manual retractors to raise your headlamps, the RETRA fuse must be removed. Open the main fuse panel. Refer to the underhood fuse panel in Servicing Your Probe later in this owner guide. Pull the RETRA (20A) fuse straight out. Inspect the removed fuse. If it is blown, replace it with a new one of the same rating. If it isn’t blown or if a new fuse does not solve the problem, remove it and operate the headlamp manually.
RWARNING
Always remove the RETRA (20A) fuse before manually operating a headlamp retractor or attempting to remove anything from the headlamp. Failure to remove the RETRA fuse could cause injury to a hand or fingers.
RWARNING
When reinstalling the RETRA fuse, make sure nothing is near the headlamp retractor. It may move suddenly while the fuse is being inserted, causing injury to hands and fingers.

3. Press SET ACC and release it immediately to
set your speed. If you keep this button depressed, your speed will continue to increase.
4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Your vehicle will maintain the speed you set.
If you drive up or down a steep hill, your vehicle may momentarily slow down or speed up, even though the speed control is on. This is normal. NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with an
automatic transaxle, and if your speed increases above your set speed while driving in Overdrive on a downhill grade, you may want to turn the Overdrive off and use Drive. You may turn the Overdrive off by pressing the Overdrive off (O/D OFF) button. This will reduce vehicle speed. Speed control cannot reduce the vehicle speed if it goes above your set speed on a downhill grade.
NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with a
5-speed manual transaxle, and if your speed increases above your set speed while driving in 5 (Fifth) gear on a downhill grade, you may want to shift to 4 (Fourth) gear to reduce vehicle speed. Depressing the clutch pedal cancels speed control, therefore speed control must be reset by pressing the SET ACC or RSM switches. Speed control cannot reduce the vehicle speed if it goes above your set speed on a downhill grade.

Accelerating With the Speed Control Operating If you want to speed up momentarily or regain preset speed on hills when the speed control is operating, simply accelerate using the accelerator pedal. Manually accelerating to a higher speed does not interfere with the speed control; when you take your foot off the accelerator, the vehicle returns to the set speed. You can also speed up by pressing the SET ACC button. Release the button when the vehicle has accelerated to the desired speed. NOTE: If your vehicle has a 5-speed manual transaxle, you may want to drive in 4
(Fourth) gear in mountainous areas or at high altitudes to improve speed control performance.NOTE: When driving uphill, especially with a
heavy load, significant speed drops may occur. If the speed drops more than 8 to 14 mph (15-25 km/h) the automatic speed control will, by design, be cancelled. You may need to control your speed manually while driving up steep grades in order to maintain the selected speed.

Tap Up and Tap Down (2.0L vehicles with automatic transaxle only) Tap Up and Tap Down is a new feature which, like SET ACC and CST, can be used to either increase or decrease the set speed. Speed changes are made in 1 mph (1.6 km/h) increments. Once the speed has been set by pressing the ON and the SET ACC switches, the set speed may be increased by 1 mph (1.6 km/h) by a momentary tap of the SET ACC button. The set speed can be reduced by 1 mph (1.6 km/h) by a momentary tap of the CST button. Multiple taps will cause the set speed to increase or decrease in increments of 1 mph (1.6 km/h). For example, if the current set speed is 60 mph (100 km/h) five taps of the ACC switch will increase the vehicle speed and SET it at 65 mph (105 km/h).

Your seat cushion power adjust lever is operated by a motor. To avoid damage to the motor, you should avoid operating this feature for an extended period of time. You should also avoid using the six-way power adjust lever continuously with the engine stopped. This could run down the battery. Use the lever to make only one adjustment at a time.

NOTE: When folding down the rear seatback, the seat belt tongue should be hanging on the hook of the lower, side trim panel, near the edge of the side of the seat cushion.
