PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

Airbags

WARNINGS

Do not modify the front of your

vehicle in any way. This could
adversely affect deployment of the
airbags.

Original text according to ECE

R94.01: Extreme Hazard! Do not
use a rearward facing child restraint
on a seat protected by an air bag in
front of it!

Wear a seat belt and keep

sufficient distance between
yourself and the steering wheel. Only
when you use the seat belt properly,
can it hold you in a position that
allows the airbag to achieve its
optimum effect. See Sitting in the
correct position (page 74).

Have repairs to the steering

wheel, steering column, seats,
airbags and seat belts carried out by
properly trained technicians.

Keep the areas in front of the

airbags free from obstruction.
Do not affix anything to or over the
airbag covers.

Do not poke sharp objects into

areas where airbags are fitted.
This could damage and adversely
affect deployment of the airbags.

Use seat covers designed for

seats with side airbags. Have
these fitted by properly trained
technicians.

Note:

You will hear a loud bang and
see a cloud of harmless powdery
residue if an airbag deploys. This is
normal.

Note:

The front passenger airbag
protects both positions of a double
seat.

Note:

Only wipe airbag covers with
a damp cloth.

Driver and front passenger
airbags

E68581

30

o

30

o

The driver and front passenger
airbags will deploy during significant
frontal collisions or collisions that are
up to 30 degrees from the left or the
right. The airbags will inflate within a
few thousandths of a second and
deflate on contact with the
occupants, thus cushioning forward
body movement. During minor frontal
collisions, overturns, rear collisions
and side collisions, the driver and
front passenger airbags will not
deploy.

14

Occupant protection

Side airbags

E68905

Side airbags are fitted inside the
seatback of the front seats. A label
indicates that side airbags are fitted
to your vehicle.

The side airbags will deploy during
significant lateral collisions. Only the
airbag on the side affected by the
collision will deploy. The airbags will
inflate within a few thousandths of a
second and deflate on contact with
the occupants, thus providing
protection for the head and rib areas.
During minor lateral collisions,
overturns, front collisions and rear
collisions, the side airbags will not
deploy.

Seat belts

WARNINGS

Wear a seat belt and keep

sufficient distance between
yourself and the steering wheel. Only
when you use the seat belt properly,
can it hold you in a position to
achieve its optimum effect. See

Sitting in the correct position

(page 74).

Use a seat belt for only one

person.

Use the correct buckle for each

seat belt.

Do not use a seat belt that is

slack or twisted.

Do not wear thick clothing. The

seat belt must fit tightly around
your body to achieve its optimum
effect.

Position the shoulder strap of

the seat belt over the centre of
your shoulder and position the lap
strap tightly across your hips.

Seat belt pretensioners have a lower
deployment threshold than the
airbags. During minor collisions, it is
possible that only the seat belt
pretensioner will deploy.

15

Occupant protection

vehicle is on a slope.

Press the red button on the buckle
to release the seat belt. Let it retract
completely and smoothly.

USING SEAT BELTS DURING PREGNANCY

E68587

WARNING

Position the seat belt correctly

for your safety and that of your
unborn child. Do not use only the lap
strap or the shoulder strap.

Position the lap strap comfortably
across your hips and low beneath
your pregnant abdomen. Position the
shoulder strap between your breasts,
above and to the side of your
pregnant abdomen.

DISABLING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG

WARNING

To avoid the risk of death or

serious injury, NEVER use a
rearward facing child restraint in the
front, unless the airbag is OFF.

17

Occupant protection

E71313

The key switch and the airbag
deactivation lamp are located in the
instrument panel.

If the airbag warning lamp in the
instrument cluster illuminates
intermittently, it means that there is
a malfunction. Remove the child
restraint from the front. Have the
system checked by a suitably trained
technician for your own safety. See

Warning lamps and indicators

(page 52).

Disabling the passenger
airbag

A B

E71312

To use a child restraint in the front,
make sure that the key switch is
turned to position A.

When you switch the ignition on,
check that the passenger airbag
deactivation warning lamp comes on.
See Quick start (page 6).

Enabling the passenger
airbag

WARNING

For the adult restraint system to
perform as intended, make sure

that the airbag is ON.

After removing the child restraint
from the front, make sure that you
turn the key switch to position B.

18

Occupant protection

GENERAL INFORMATION ON RADIO FREQUENCIES

CAUTION

The radio frequency used by

your remote control can also be
used by other short distance radio
transmissions (e.g. amateur radios,
medical equipment, wireless
headphones, remote controls and
alarm systems). If the frequencies are
jammed, you will not be able to use
your remote control. You can lock
and unlock the doors with the key.

Note:

You could unlock the doors if
you press the buttons on the remote
control unintentionally.

The operating range between your
remote control and your vehicle
varies depending on the
environment.

PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE CONTROL

You can programme a maximum of
eight remote controls to use with
your vehicle (including any supplied
with your vehicle). Ask your dealer for
instructions.

19

Keys and remote controls

LOCKING AND UNLOCKING

Double locking

WARNING

Do not activate double locking

when persons or animals are
inside the vehicle. You will not be able
to unlock the doors from the inside if
you have double locked them.

Double locking is a theft protection
feature that prevents someone from
opening the doors from the inside.
You can only double lock the doors
if they are all closed. If you try to
double lock the doors when a door
is still open, you may hear a short
tone from the horn and the locks will
cycle. The door locks will return to
their previous state.

If you have double locked the doors
successfully, the direction indicators
will flash twice. If the hazard warning
flashers are on, the direction
indicators will give two long flashes.

24

Locks

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

The engine immobiliser is a theft
protection system that prevents
someone from starting the engine
with an incorrectly coded key.

CODED KEYS

Note:

Do not shield your keys with
metal objects. This may prevent the
receiver from recognising your key
as a valid one.

Note:

Have all of your remaining
keys erased and recoded if you lose
a key. Ask your dealer for further
information. Have replacement keys
recoded together with your existing
keys.

If you lose a key, you can obtain a
replacement from your Ford Dealer.
If possible, provide them with the key
number from the tag provided with
the original keys. You can also obtain
additional keys from your Ford
Dealer.

ARMING THE ENGINE IMMOBILISER

The engine immobiliser is armed
automatically a short time after you
have switched the ignition off.

The indicator in the instrument cluster
will flash to confirm that the system
is operating.

DISARMING THE ENGINE IMMOBILISER

The engine immobiliser is disarmed
automatically when you switch the
ignition on with a correctly coded key.

The indicator in the instrument cluster
will come on for approximately three
seconds and then go out. If the
indicator stays on for one minute or
flashes for approximately one minute
and then repeatedly at irregular
intervals, your key has not been
recognised. Remove the key and try
again.

If you attempt to start the engine with
an incorrectly coded key, you will
need to wait for approximately 20
seconds before attempting to start
the engine again with a correctly
coded key.

If you are unable to start the engine
with a correctly coded key, this
indicates a malfunction. Have the
immobiliser checked immediately.

25

Engine immobiliser

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

All vehicles

If the alarm is triggered, the alarm
horns will sound for 30 seconds and
the hazard warning flashers will flash
for five minutes. If the cause of the
alarm being triggered has been
removed, the alarm will return to its
previous armed state. If the cause
has not been removed, the alarm
horns will sound again.

Vehicles with a perimeter
alarm

The perimeter alarm is a deterrent
against unauthorised access to your
vehicle through the doors and the
bonnet. It also protects the audio unit
and the trailer (if a Ford trailer-tow kit
is fitted). You can fully arm or partially
arm the alarm. Trailer detection is
disabled when you have partially
armed the alarm.

The perimeter alarm will be triggered
if someone:

•

opens a door.

•

opens the bonnet.

•

attempts to start the engine with
an incorrectly coded key.

•

removes the audio unit.

•

disconnects the trailer electrical
connector (if it was connected at
the time the alarm was armed).

Vehicles with a category
one alarm

E71401

The category one alarm is additional
to the perimeter alarm. Ultrasonic
interior motion detection protects
your vehicle against unauthorised
access to the passenger
compartment and the cargo area.
You can fully arm or partially arm the
alarm. Trailer detection and interior
motion detection are disabled when
you have partially armed the alarm.
Interior motion detection is not
activated if you arm the alarm when
a door is open.

The category one alarm will only
function correctly if all windows are
fully closed. Keep the area in front of
the motion sensors free from
obstruction.

The category one alarm is triggered
if:

•

motion is detected in the
passenger compartment or cargo
area.

•

someone attempts to access the
cargo area through the rear door
or tailgate window.

CAUTIONS

Do not switch autowipers on in

dry weather conditions. The rain
sensor is very sensitive and the
wipers may operate if dirt, mist or flies
hit the windscreen.

Replace the wiper blades as

soon as they begin to leave
bands of water and smears. If you do
not replace them, the rain sensor will
continue to detect water on the
windscreen and the wipers will
operate, even though the majority of
the windscreen is dry.

Fully defrost the windscreen in

icy conditions before you switch
autowipers on.

Switch autowipers off before you

enter a car wash.

28

Wipers and washers

If you switch autowipers on after you
have switched the ignition on, the
wipers will cycle once regardless of
whether the windscreen is wet or dry.
The rain sensor will then continuously
measure the amount of water on the
windscreen and adjust the speed of
the wipers automatically.

If you switch the ignition on with
autowipers already switched on, the
wipers will not cycle until the rain
sensor detects water on the
windscreen.

Low sensitivityA

High sensitivityB

Adjust the sensitivity of the rain
sensor using the rotary control. If you
set the control to low sensitivity, the

windscreen. If you set the control to
high sensitivity, the wipers will
operate if the sensor detects a small
amount of water on the windscreen.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

Outside air

Keep the air intakes forward of the
windscreen free from obstruction
(snow, leaves etc.) to allow the
climate control system to function
effectively.

Recirculated air

CAUTION

Prolonged use of recirculated air

may cause the windows to mist
up. If the windows mist up, follow the
settings for defrosting and demisting
the windscreen.

The air currently in the passenger
compartment will be recirculated.
Outside air will not enter the vehicle.

Heating

Heating performance depends on
the temperature of the engine
coolant.

Air conditioning

Note:

The air conditioning operates
only when the temperature is above
4ºC (39ºF).

Note:

If you use the air conditioning,
the fuel consumption of your vehicle
will be higher.

Air is directed through the evaporator
where it is cooled. Humidity is
extracted from the air to help keep
the windows free of mist. The
resulting condensation is directed to
the outside of the vehicle and it is
therefore normal if you see a small
pool of water under your vehicle.

General information on
controlling the interior
climate

Fully close all the windows.

Warming the interior

Direct the air towards your feet. In
cold or humid weather conditions,
direct some of the air towards the
windscreen and the door windows.

Cooling the interior

Direct the air towards your face.

AUXILIARY HEATER

General information

WARNINGS

Do not operate the

programmable fuel fired heater
at filling stations, near sources of
combustible vapours or dust or in
enclosed spaces.

Do not refuel when the

programmable fuel fired heater
display is on.

Note:

The programmable fuel fired
heater will switch off automatically
when the battery voltage is low.

Note:

All symbols on the display will
flash if the power to the
programmable fuel fired heater has
been interrupted. The heater will not
operate under these circumstances.
Re-set the clock time.

Note:

The programmable fuel fired
heater will shut down in the event of
a malfunction. Have the system
checked by an expert.

Observe the following information:

69

Climate control

•

Switch the programmable fuel
fired heater on for approximately
10 minutes at least once a month,
all year round. This prevents the
water pump and heater motor
from seizing.

•

To avoid corrosion, make sure the
coolant in your vehicle contains at
least 10 % antifreeze all year
round.

•

Make sure the coolant level is
between the MAX and MIN
marks on the reservoir to prevent
air locks. See Engine coolant
check (page 137).

•

Programmable blower operation
begins when the coolant reaches
a certain temperature. In this
mode, ambient temperature has
no effect.

•

In continuous heater operation,
the unit senses the ambient
temperature. If this is above 5°C
(41°F) the programmable fuel fired
heater heater will not activate.

The programmable fuel fired heater
operates independently of the vehicle
heater by heating the engine’s
coolant circuit. It is fed from the
vehicle fuel tank. It may also be used
while the vehicle is in motion to help
the vehicle heater warm up the
interior more quickly.

It is possible that when the
programmable fuel fired heater is
activated, exhaust fumes may come
from under the sides of the vehicle.
This is normal.

Principle of operation

Before operation

CAUTION

Turning the blower switch to a

position other than position one
will reduce battery life or even flatten
the battery.

Before activating or programming the
heater, prepare the following
settings:

•

Set the vehicle heater
temperature control to maximum.

•

Turn the blower switch to position
one.

•

Switch on the recirculated air
before turning the ignition off. Wait
at least five seconds for the
ventilation system to close the
outside air vents.

•

DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)

The DPF forms part of the emissions
reduction systems fitted to your
vehicle. It filters harmful diesel
particulates (soot) from the exhaust
gas.

Regeneration

WARNING

Do not park or idle your vehicle

over dry leaves or dry grass or
other combustible material. The
regeneration process requires very
high exhaust gas temperatures and
the exhaust will radiate a
considerable amount of heat during
and after regeneration, and after you
have switched the engine off. This is
a potential fire hazard.

Unlike a normal filter which requires
periodic replacement, the DPF has
been designed to regenerate, or
clean itself to maintain operating
efficiency. The regeneration process
takes place automatically. However,
some driving conditions mean that
you may need to support the
regeneration process.

85

Starting the engine

If you drive only short distances or
your journeys contain frequent
stopping and starting, you must
initiate the regeneration process if
the soot overload warning lamp in
the instrument cluster illuminates.
See Warning lamps and
indicators (page 52). When safe
to do so:

•

Drive your vehicle on a free
flowing journey for up to 30
minutes, avoiding prolonged
idling.

•

Do not switch off the ignition.

•

Use a lower gear than normal to
maintain a higher engine speed
during this journey.

This process may have to be
repeated. The warning lamp will go
out when the regeneration process
is successful.

SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE

Vehicles with a
turbocharger

CAUTION

Do not switch the engine off

when it is running at high speed.
If you do, the turbocharger will
continue running after the engine oil
pressure has dropped to zero. This
will lead to premature turbocharger
bearing wear.

Release the accelerator pedal. Wait
until the engine has reached idle
speed and then switch it off.

86

Starting the engine

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNINGS

Stop refuelling after the fuel

nozzle stops the second time.
Additional fuel will fill the expansion
space in the fuel tank which could
lead to fuel overflowing. Fuel spillage
could be hazardous to other road
users.

Do not use any kind of flames

or heat near the fuel system.
The fuel system is under pressure.
There is a risk of injury if the fuel
system is leaking.

FUEL QUALITY - PETROL

Note:

We recommend that you use
only high quality fuel without additives
or other engine treatments.

CAUTION

Do not use leaded petrol or

petrol with additives containing
other metallic compounds (e.g.
manganese-based). They could
damage the emission system.

Use minimum 95 octane
unleaded petrol that meets the
specification defined by EN 228, or
equivalent.

FUEL QUALITY - DIESEL

Note:

We recommend that you use
only high quality fuel without additives
or other engine treatments.

WARNING

Do not mix diesel with oil, petrol
or other liquids. This could cause

a chemical reaction.

CAUTION

Do not add kerosene, paraffin or
petrol to diesel. This could cause

damage to the fuel system.

Note:

We do not recommend the
prolonged use of additives intended
to prevent fuel waxing.

Use diesel that meets the
specification defined by EN 590, or
equivalent.

You can use diesel that contains up
to 5% RME (bio diesel).

CATALYTIC CONVERTER

Driving with a catalytic
converter

CAUTIONS

Avoid running out of fuel.

Do not crank the engine for long
periods.

Do not run the engine when a
spark plug lead is disconnected.

Do not push-start or tow-start
your vehicle. Use booster cables.

See Using booster cables (page

144).

Do not switch the ignition off
when driving.

87

Fuel and refuelling

Parking

WARNING

Do not park your vehicle over

dry leaves or dry grass. The
exhaust will continue to radiate a
considerable amount of heat after
you have switched the engine off.
This is a potential fire hazard.

FUEL FILLER FLAP

WARNINGS

Take care when refuelling to

avoid spilling any residual fuel
from the fuel pipe nozzle.

We recommend that you wait

at least 10 seconds before
removing the fuel pipe nozzle to allow
any residual fuel to drain into the fuel
tank.

CAUTION

If you use a high pressure spray

to wash your vehicle, only spray
the fuel filler flap briefly from a
distance not less than 20 centimetres
(8 inches).

Note:

It is normal to hear a hissing

noise when you remove the filler cap.

FUEL CONSUMPTION

The CO2 and fuel consumption
figures are derived from laboratory
tests according to EEC Directive
80/1268/EEC and subsequent
amendments and are carried out by
all vehicle manufacturers.

They are intended as a comparison
between makes and models of
vehicles. They are not intended to
represent the real world fuel
consumption you may get from your
vehicle. Real world fuel consumption
is governed by many factors
including; driving style, high speed
driving, stop/start driving, air
conditioning usage, the accessories
fitted and towing etc.

Your Ford dealer can give you advice
on improving your fuel consumption.

ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD)

CAUTION

A vehicle fitted with AWD must

be recovered with either ALL
wheels on the ground or ALL wheels
off the ground. See Vehicle
recovery (page 127).

92

Transmission

The AWD system, fitted to certain
rear-wheel drive variants, is purely
mechanical and will automatically
provide driving torque to the front
wheels when road conditions
become slippery with rain, snow or
ice etc.

While driving, the AWD indicator
illuminates during activation of the
system. If it does not illuminate or
illuminates continuously while driving,
this indicates a malfunction. During a
malfunction, the system switches off.
Have the system checked by a
properly trained technician.

When AWD is no longer required the
system automatically disengages and
normal rear-wheel drive functionality
is resumed.

93

Transmission

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

Dual circuit braking system

E71353

WARNING

If a brake circuit fails, you will

notice a softer feel to the brake
pedal. Press the brake pedal firmly
and allow for increased stopping
distances. Stop and have this
checked immediately. Do not
continue your journey.

Your vehicle is fitted with a diagonally
split, dual circuit brake system. If a
brake circuit fails, the other remains
operational.

Disc brakes

E71354

Wet brake discs result in reduced
braking efficiency. Dab the brake
pedal when driving from a car wash
to remove the film of water.

ABS

WARNING

The ABS does not relieve you of
your responsibility to drive with

due care and attention.

The ABS helps you to maintain full
steering and directional stability when
you brake heavily in an emergency,
by preventing the road wheels from
locking. The ABS monitors the speed
of each road wheel and varies the
pressure to each brake. The ABS
optimizes the tyre-to-road adhesion
when you brake heavily.

HINTS ON DRIVING WITH ABS

E71355

When the ABS is operating, the brake
pedal will pulse. This is normal.
Maintain pressure on the brake
pedal.

94

Brakes

The ABS will not eliminate the
dangers inherent when:

•

you drive too close to the vehicle
in front of you.

•

the vehicle is aquaplaning.

•

you take corners too fast.

•

the road surface is poor.

PARKING BRAKE

Applying the parking brake

E66567

WARNING

Make sure that the parking
brake is applied before you

release the lever.

Note:

Do not press the release
button when you apply the parking
brake.

1. Press the brake pedal firmly.

2. Pull the parking brake lever

upwards to its fullest extent.

Parking on a hill

If you have to park facing uphill, select
first gear and turn the front wheels
away from the kerb. If you have to
park facing downhill, select reverse
gear and turn the front wheels
towards the kerb.

Releasing the parking
brake

1. Press the brake pedal firmly.

2. Pull the parking brake lever
upwards slightly, press the release
button and push the lever
downwards.

without ESPA

with ESPB

The ESP supports stability when the
vehicle starts to slide away from your
intended path. This is performed by
braking individual wheels and
reducing engine torque as needed.

The system also provides an
enhanced traction control function
by reducing engine torque if the
wheels spin when you accelerate.
This improves your ability to pull away
on slippery roads or loose surfaces,
and improves comfort by limiting
wheel spin in hairpin bends.

Stability control (ESP) warning
lamp

The ESP warning lamp will flash when
the system is operating. See

Warning lamps and indicators

(page 52).

Emergency brake assist

WARNING

Emergency brake assist does

not relieve you of your
responsibility to drive with due care
and attention.

Emergency brake assist will detect
when you brake heavily by measuring
the rate at which you press the brake
pedal. It will provide maximum
braking efficiency as long as you
press the pedal. Emergency brake
assist can reduce stopping distances
in critical situations.

96

Stability control

USING STABILITY CONTROL

E78085

With vehicle speed below 60 km/h
(37 mph), press and hold the switch
for one second. The switch will
illuminate.

Note:

If you turn the system off, the
system will reactivate temporarily if
the brakes are applied during a
vehicle slide. The ESP warning lamp
will flash in this instance.

Note:

If you turn the system off, the
system will automatically reactivate
if your vehicle speed goes above 60
km/h (37 mph).

Press the switch again to turn the
system on. The system will be
switched on automatically every time
you switch the ignition on.

For item location: See Quick start
(page 6).

97

Stability control

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

The hill launch assist (HLA) system
makes it easier to pull away when the
vehicle is on a slope without the need
to use the parking brake.

When the HLA is active, the vehicle
will remain stationary on the slope for
two to three seconds after you
release the brake pedal. During this
time, you have time to move your
foot from the brake to the
accelerator pedal and pull away. The
brakes are released automatically
once the engine has developed
sufficient drive to prevent the vehicle
from rolling down the slope. This is
an advantage when pulling away on
a slope, for example from a car park
ramp, traffic lights or when reversing
uphill into a parking space.

WARNING

The HLA does not replace the

parking brake. When you leave
the vehicle, always apply the parking
brake and select first or reverse gear.

USING HLA

The HLA is activated automatically
when the vehicle is stopped on a
slope greater than 4%. HLA operates
with the vehicle facing downhill if
reverse gear is selected.

Activating the HLA

WARNINGS

You must remain in the vehicle
once you have activated the

HLA.

The HLA is active only if the

green HLA lamp illuminates in
the instrument cluster. During all
times you are responsible for
controlling the vehicle, supervising
the HLA and intervening, if required.

You can activate the HLA only if the
following conditions have been met:

•

The engine is running.

•

All doors (including cargo doors)
are fully closed.

•

The parking brake is fully
disengaged.

•

No failure mode is present.

To activate the HLA:

1. Press the brake and clutch pedals

to bring the vehicle to a complete
standstill. Keep the brake and
clutch pedals depressed.

2. If the sensors detect that the

vehicle is on a slope the HLA will
be activated automatically and the
green HLA lamp will illuminate in
the instrument cluster.

3. When you remove your foot from

the brake pedal, the vehicle will
remain on the slope without rolling
away for approximately two to
three seconds. This hold time will
automatically be extended if you
are in the process of driving off.
