(A driving cycle consists of a cold engine startup followed by mixed city/highway driving.) No additional vehicle service is required.

If the light remains on, have your vehicle serviced at the first available opportunity.

Light is blinking:

Engine misfire is occurring which could damage your catalytic converter. You should drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy acceleration and deceleration) and have your vehicle serviced at the first available opportunity.

Under engine misfire conditions, excessive

exhaust temperatures could damage the catalytic converter, the fuel system, interior floor coverings or other vehicle components, possibly causing a fire.

Error messages

You may experience an error message for the following situations:

• NO DISC when the CD control is pressed and there is not a CD present.

• DISC ERR when there is a damaged or unreadable disc. Such as, data discs containing no .mp3 files, or for data discs containing more than 255 files or directories.

• CD ERR for any other disc malfunction.

Saving and naming MP3 files

• Your MACHt MP3 music system supports discs containing up to 255 files in 255 directories. Discs containing more than 255 files will not play.

• Always save MP3 files with the .mp3 extension. The player recognizes an MP3 file by the .mp3 extension, so MP3 files saved with different extensions will not be played. Never save a

non-MP3 file with the .mp3 extension as the file will not play properly and damage may occur to the player or your sound system.

• The player supports multi session discs. However, be sure to import the previous session of the disc before you add new files. If you do not import the previous session, only the last session will be played.

• When burning a disc, ensure that you close/finalize the disc before playback, or the disc may not play properly or an error message may appear.

• The player supports DAM (Digital Automatic Music) discs.

CD CARE

CD units are designed to play commercially pressed 12cm audio compact discs only. Due to technical incompatibility, certain recordable and re-recordable compact discs may not function correctly when used in Ford CD players. Irregular shaped CDs, CDs with a scratch protection film attached, and CDs with homemade paper (adhesive) labels should not be inserted into the CD player. The label may peel and cause the CD to become jammed. It is recommended that homemade CDs be identified with permanent marker rather than adhesive labels. Please contact your dealer for further information.

TROUBLESHOOTING THE CD PLAYER (IF EQUIPPED)

The laser beam used in the compact disc player is harmful to the eyes. Do not

attempt to disassemble the case.

If sound skips:

• You may be traveling on a rough road, playing badly scratched discs or the disc may be dirty. Skipping will not scratch the discs or damage the player.

If your changer does not work, it may be that:

• A disc is already loaded where you want to insert a disc.

• The disc is inserted with the label surface downward.

• The disc is dusty or defective.

• The player’s internal temperature is above 60°C

(140°F). Allow the player to cool down before operating.

• A disc with format and dimensions not within industry standards is inserted.

Page 59

Entertainment Systems

MP3 DISC QUALITY FACTORS

The MACHt MP3 music system is designed for use with CD-DA (regular audio discs), CD-R and CD-RW discs. Discs must comply with ISO 9660 and Joliet standards.

Several factors can effect disc playback quality:

• Disc capacity — Each disc contains about 650 MB of storage capacity. We do not recommend using high capacity discs containing 700MB of storage.

• Disc type — Some CD-RW discs may operate inconsistently and may cause an error message to appear. We recommend burning MP3 files onto CD-R discs.

• Disc finalization — The disc may be left open for the purpose of adding sessions to it at a later time, but be sure to close each session or the disc will not play.

• Bit rate — The player supports bit rates from 56–320 kbps, as well as variable bit rate MP3 files, but lower bit rates will have a noticeable effect on sound quality and are recommended only for speech or low fidelity music material. We recommend that you encode MP3 files using a high quality encoder.

• PC configuration — Encoding MP3 files requires intensive use of your computer’s resources. Follow the PC configuration recommendations of the encoder software vendor. We recommend that you avoid running other software applications on your PC during MP3 encoding to avoid undesirable noise and distortion.

CLEANING COMPACT DISCS

Inspect all discs for contamination before playing. If necessary, clean discs only with an approved CD cleaner and wipe from the center out to the edge. Do not use circular motion.

Page 60

Entertainment Systems

CD, MP3 AND CD PLAYER CARE

• Handle discs by their edges only. Never touch the playing surface.

• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources for extended periods of time.

• Do not insert more than one disc into the slot of the CD player (if equipped).

• Always store discs out of direct sunlight. Excessive heat may damage or warp discs.

• Use care when handling and playing CD-R and CD-RW discs, which are more susceptible to damage from heat, light and stress than are regular CDs.

• Always insert and remove a disc by holding the disc flat, with the playing surface facing down, in order to prevent damage to the disc or the player.

• Never insert any object other than a compact disc into the player, as doing so may damage the player and may cause injury to you.

• Do not disassemble the player. The laser used in disc playback is extremely harmful to the eyes.

CLEANING CASSETTE PLAYER (IF EQUIPPED)

Clean the tape player head with a cassette cleaning cartridge after 10 to 12 hours of play in order to maintain the best sound and operation.

Page 61

Entertainment Systems

CASSETTE AND CASSETTE PLAYER CARE

• Use only cassettes that are 90 minutes long or less.

• Do not expose tapes to direct sunlight, high humidity, extreme heat or extreme cold. Allow tapes that may have been exposed to extreme temperatures to reach a moderate temperature before playing.

• Tighten very loose tapes by inserting a finger or pencil into the hole and turning the hub.

• Remove loose labels before inserting tapes.

• Do not leave tapes in the cassette player for a

long time when not being played.

RADIO FREQUENCY INFORMATION

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications Commission(CRTC) establish the frequencies AM and FM stations may use for their broadcasts. Allowable frequencies are:

AM 530, 540–1600, 1610 kHz FM 87.7, 87.9–107.7, 107.9 MHz Not all frequencies are used in a given area.

Page 62

Entertainment Systems

RADIO RECEPTION FACTORS

Three factors can affect radio reception:

• Distance/strength. The further an FM signal travels, the weaker it is. The listenable range of the average FM station is approximately 40 km (24 miles). This range can be affected by “signal modulation.” Signal modulation is a process radio stations use to increase their strength/volume relative to other stations.

• Terrain. Hills, mountains and tall buildings between your vehicle’s antenna and the radio station signal can cause FM reception problems. Static can be caused on AM stations by power lines, electric fences, traffic lights and thunderstorms. Moving away from an interfering structure (out of its “shadow”) returns your reception to normal.

• Station overload. Weak signals are sometimes captured by stronger signals when you pass a broadcast tower. A stronger signal may temporarily overtake a weaker signal and play while the weak station frequency is displayed.

The audio system automatically switches to single channel reception if it will improve the reception of a station normally received in stereo.

Replacing the batteries

The transmitter is powered by two coin type three-volt lithium batteries. Typical operating range will allow you to be up to 10 meters (33 feet) away from your vehicle. A decrease in operating range can be caused by:

• Weather conditions

• Nearby radio towers

• Structures around the vehicle

• Other vehicles parked next to the vehicle

To replace the batteries:

1. Twist a thin coin between the two halves of the transmitter near the key ring. DO NOT TAKE THE FRONT PART OF THE TRANSMITTER APART.

2. Place the positive (+) side of new batteries down. Refer to the diagram inside the transmitter unit.

3. Snap the two halves back together. 93

Page 94

Locks and Security

Replacement of the battery will not cause the remote transmitter to become deprogrammed from your vehicle. The remote transmitter should operate normally after battery replacement.

Replacing lost transmitters

• Take all your

vehicle’s transmitters to your dealer if service is required.

• If you purchase

additional transmitters (up to four may be programmed into memory), perform the following procedure.

To reprogram the transmitters yourself, place the key in the ignition and turn from LOCK to OFF and cycle between OFF and ON eight times in rapid succession (within 10 seconds) ending in ON. After doors lock/unlock, press any control on all transmitters (up to four). With each control press of the transmitters, the door should cycle (lock/unlock) to confirm programming. When completed, turn the ignition to OFF. The door locks should cycle (lock/unlock) one last time to confirm completion of programming.

• any door is open.

The battery saver will shut off the interior lamps 30 minutes after the ignition has been turned to the OFF position, 10 minutes after if the door is left open, and 30 minutes after if the trunk is left open or the dome lamp control is left on.

SECURILOCKY PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM

SecuriLocky passive anti-theft system is an engine immobilization system. This system is designed to prevent the engine from being started unless a coded key programmed to your vehicle is used.

The SecuriLocky passive anti-theft system is not compatible with non-Ford aftermarket remote start systems. Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting problems and a loss of security protection.

THEFT INDICATOR

The theft indicator is the flashing red indicator located on top of the instrument panel.

• When the ignition is in the OFF position, the

indicator will flash once every 2 seconds to indicate the SecuriLocky system is functioning as a theft deterrent.

• When the ignition is in the ON position, the

indicator will glow for 3 seconds to indicate normal system functionality.

If a problem occurs with the SecuriLocky system, the indicator will flash rapidly or glow steadily when the ignition is in the ON position. If this occurs, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer for service.

Page 96

Locks and Security

Automatic arming

The vehicle is armed immediately after switching the ignition to the 3 (OFF) position. The

THEFT

indicator in the instrument cluster will flash every two seconds when the vehicle is armed.

Automatic disarming

Switching the ignition to the 4 (ON) position with a coded key disarms the vehicle. The indicator will illuminate for three seconds and then go out. If the

THEFT

indicator stays on for an extended period of time or flashes rapidly, have the system serviced by your dealership or a qualified technician.

Key information

Your vehicle is supplied with two coded keys. Only a coded key will start your vehicle. Spare coded keys can be purchased from your dealership. Your dealership can program your key or you can “do it yourself.” Refer to Programming spare keys.

The following items may prevent the vehicle from starting:

• Large metallic objects

• Electronic devices on the key chain that can be

used to purchase gasoline or similar items

• A second key on the same key ring as the coded

key

If any of these items are present, you need to keep these objects from touching the coded key while starting the engine. These objects and devices cannot damage the coded key, but can cause a momentary “no start” condition if they are too close to the key during engine start. If a problem occurs,

THEFT

Page 97

Locks and Security

turn ignition OFF and restart the engine with all other objects on the key ring held away from the ignition key. Check to make sure the coded key is an approved Ford coded key.

If your keys are lost or stolen you will need to do the following:

• Use your spare key to start the vehicle, or

• Have your vehicle towed to a dealership or a

locksmith. The key codes will need to be erased from your vehicle and new key codes will need to be re-coded.

Replacing coded keys can be very costly and you may want to store an extra programmed key away from the vehicle in a safe place to prevent an unforeseen inconvenience.

The correct coded key must be used for your vehicle. The use of the wrong type of coded key may lead to a “no start” condition.

If an unprogrammed key is used in the ignition it will cause a “no start” condition.

Programming spare keys

A maximum of eight keys can be coded to your vehicle. Only SecuriLocky keys can be used. To program a coded key yourself, you will need two previously programmed coded keys (keys that already operate your vehicle’s engine) and the new unprogrammed key(s) readily accessible for timely implementation of each step in the procedure.

If two previously programmed coded keys are not available, you must bring your vehicle to your dealership to have the spare coded key(s) programmed.

Please read and understand the entire procedure before you begin.

Page 98

Locks and Security

1. Insert the first previously programmed coded key into the ignition and turn the ignition from 3 (OFF)

to 4 (ON) (maintain ignition in 4 (ON) for at least one second).

2. Turn ignition to 3 (OFF) then 2 (LOCK) and remove the first coded key from the ignition.

3. Within ten seconds of removing the first coded

key, insert the second previously programmed coded key into the ignition and turn the ignition

from 3 (OFF) to 4 (ON) (maintain ignition in 4 (ON) for at least one second but no more than ten seconds).

4. Turn the ignition to 3 (OFF) then 2 (LOCK) and remove the second coded key from the ignition.

5. Within 20 seconds of removing the second coded key, insert the new unprogrammed key (new key/valet key) into the ignition and turn the ignition from 3 (OFF) to 4 (ON) (maintain ignition in 4 (ON) for at least one second). This step will program your new key to a coded key.

Seating and Safety Restraints

SEATING

Adjustable head restraints (if equipped)

Your vehicle’s seats may be equipped with head restraints which are vertically adjustable. The purpose of these head restraints is to help limit head motion in the event of a rear collision. To properly adjust your head restraints, lift the head restraint so that it is located directly behind your head or as close to that position as possible. Refer to the following to raise and lower the head restraints.

The head restraints can be moved up and down.

Adjusting the front manual seat

Never adjust the driver’s seat or seatback when the vehicle is moving.

Do not pile cargo higher than the seatbacks to reduce the risk of injuring people in a

collision or sudden stop.

Always drive and ride with your seatback upright and the lap belt snug and low across

the hips.

Reclining the seatback can cause an

occupant to slide under the seat’s safety belt, resulting in severe personal injuries in the event of a collision.
