Warning light Ycoming on when driving

❒

If the warning light Yturns on, this means that the system is running a self-test (for example for a voltage drop).

❒

If the problem persists, contact the Ford Dealership.

SYMBOLS

Special coloured labels have been attached near or actually on some of the components of your car. These labels bear symbols that remind you of the precautions to be taken as regards that particular component.

THE FORD SYSTEM

This is an electrical engine locking system which increases protection from attempted theft of the car. It is automatically activated when the ignition key is extracted.

Each time the car is started by turning the ignition key to MAR, the Ford CODE system control unit sends an acknowledgement code to the engine control unit to deactivate the inhibitor.

If, during ignition, the code is not correctly recognized, the light

lights up on the instrument panel. In this case, turn the key to STOP and

then back to MAR. Try with the other keys provided if the problem persists. Contact a Ford Dealership if you still cannot start the engine.

IMPORTANT Each key has its own code which must be stored by the system ECU. Contact the Ford Dealership to have new keys (up to eight) stored with the code.

The electronic components inside the key may be damaged if the key is subjected to violent shocks.

IGNITION SWITCH fig. 7

The key can be turned to 3 different positions:

❒

STOP: the engine is off, the key can be extracted, the steering is locked. Some electrical devices (e.g. car radio, central door locking system, etc.) are enabled

❒

MAR: driving position. All electrical devices are enabled

❒

AVV: engine start.

The ignition device is fitted with a safety system that forces the driver to return the ignition key to STOP before repeating the starting operation, if the engine does not start up.

Never extract the key

while the vehicle is moving. The steering wheel would be locked as soon as the steering wheel is turned. This also applies to when the car is towed.

Any operations in the aftermarket, which would involve tampering with the steering or the steering column (e.g. fitting an anti-theft device), are absolutley prohibited unless they are carried out and authorized by a Ford Dealership; in the addition of a deterioration in the performance of the system, this would affect the warranty and cause serious problems as well as resulting in invalidating the vehicle’s type approval.

TRIP COMPUTER

General features

The “Trip computer” is used to display information on car operation when the key is turned to MAR. This function allows to define two separate trips called “Trip A” and “Trip B” for monitoring the car’s “complete mission” in a reciprocally independent manner.

Both functions are resettable (reset start of new mission).

“Trip A” shall be used to display the figures relating to:

– Range – Distance – Average consumption – Instant consumption – Average speed – Travel time (driving time).

“Trip B” shall be used to display the figures relating to:

– Distance B – Average consumption B – Average speed B – Travel time B (driving time) – Reset trip B

Note “Trip B” may be excluded. “Range” and “Instantaneous fuel consumption” cannot be reset.

Values displayed

Range

This indicates the distance which may be travelled with the fuel in the tank assuming that driving conditions will not change. The message “----” will appear on the display in the following cases:

– value lower than 50 km (or 30 mi) – the car is parked with the engine

running for a long time.

IMPORTANT The range depends on several factors: driving style (see paragraph “Driving style” in section “Starting and driving”), type of route (motorway, urban cycle, mountain roads, etc…), conditions of use of the vehicle (load, tyre pressure, etc…). Trip planning must take into account the above notes.

Trip distance

This value shows the distance covered from the start of the new mission.

Average consumption

This value shows the approximate average consumption from the start of the new mission.

Instant consumption

This indicates the fuel consumption. The value is constantly updated. The message “----” will appear on the display if the car is parked with the engine running.
