ABOUT THIS MANUAL

Thank you for choosing Ford. We recommend that you take some time to get to know your vehicle by reading this manual. The more that you know about it, the greater the safety and pleasure you will get from driving it.
WARNING
Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle control, crash and
injury. We strongly recommend that you use extreme caution when using any device that may take your focus off the road. Your primary responsibility is the safe operation of your vehicle. We recommend against the use of any handheld device while driving and encourage the use of voice-operated systems when possible. Make sure you are aware of all applicable local laws that may affect the use of electronic devices while driving.
Note: This manual describes product features and options available throughout the range of available models, sometimes even before they are generally available. It may describe options not fitted to your vehicle.
Note: Some of the illustrations in this manual may be used for different models, so may appear different to you on your vehicle. However, the essential information in the illustrations is always correct.
Note: Always use and operate your vehicle in line with all applicable laws and regulations.
Note: Pass on this manual when selling your vehicle. It is an integral part of the vehicle.
This manual may qualify the location of a component as left-hand side or right-hand side. The side is determined when facing forward in the seat.
Right-hand sideA Left-hand sideB
Protecting the Environment
You must play your part in protecting the environment. Correct vehicle usage and the authorized disposal of waste, cleaning and lubrication materials are significant steps toward this aim.

DATA RECORDING

A large number of electronic components of your vehicle contain data storage modules temporarily or permanently storing technical data about the condition of the vehicle, events and errors.
In general, this technical information documents the condition of parts, modules, systems or the environment:
Operating conditions of system components (e.g. filling levels).
Status messages of the vehicle and its individual components (e.g. number of wheel revolutions/rotational speed, deceleration, lateral acceleration).
Malfunction and defects in important system components (e.g. lighting and brake system).
Vehicle reactions in particular driving situations (e.g. inflation of an airbag, activation of the stability regulation system).
Environmental conditions (e.g. temperature).
These data are exclusively technical and help identification and correction of errors as well as optimisation of vehicle functions. Motion profiles indicating travelled routes cannot be created with these data.
If services are used (e.g. repair works, service processes, warranty cases, quality assurance), employees of the service network (including manufacturers) are able to read out this technical information from the event and error data storage modules using special diagnostic devices. If required, you will receive further information. After an error has been corrected, these data are deleted from the error storage module or they are constantly overwritten.

Introduction
Page 10
When using the vehicle, situations may occur in which these technical data related to other information (accident report, damages on the vehicle, witness statements etc.) may be associated with a specific person - possibly, with the assistance of an expert.
Additional functions contractually agreed upon with the client (e.g. vehicle location in emergency cases) allow the transmission of particular vehicle data from the vehicle.

REPLACEMENT PARTS RECOMMENDATION

Your vehicle has been built to the highest standards using quality parts. We recommend that you demand the use of genuine Ford and Motorcraft parts whenever your vehicle requires scheduled maintenance or repair. You can clearly identify genuine Ford and Motorcraft parts by looking for the Ford, FoMoCo or Motorcraft branding on the parts or their packaging.
Scheduled Maintenance and Mechanical Repairs
One of the best ways for you to make sure that your vehicle provides years of service is to have it maintained in line with our recommendations using parts that conform to the specifications detailed in this Owners Manual. Genuine Ford and Motorcraft parts meet or exceed these specifications.
Collision Repairs
We hope that you never experience a collision, but accidents do happen. Genuine Ford replacement collision parts meet our stringent requirements for fit, finish, structural integrity, corrosion protection and dent resistance. During vehicle
development we validate these parts deliver the intended level of protection as a whole system. A great way to know for sure you are getting this level of protection is to use genuine Ford replacement collision parts.
Warranty on Replacement Parts
Genuine Ford and Motorcraft replacement parts are the only replacement parts that benefit from a Ford Warranty. Damage caused to your vehicle as a result of the failure of non-Ford parts may not be covered by the Ford Warranty. For additional information, refer to the terms and conditions of the Ford Warranty.

MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT

Using mobile communications equipment is becoming increasingly important in the conduct of business and personal affairs. However, you must not compromise your own or others safety when using such equipment. Mobile communications can enhance personal safety and security when appropriately used, particularly in emergency situations. Safety must be paramount when using mobile communications equipment to avoid negating these benefits. Mobile communication equipment includes, but is not limited to, cellular phones, pagers, portable email devices, text messaging devices and portable two-way radios.

INSTALLING CHILD SEATS

WARNINGS
Extreme Hazard! Never use a
rearward facing child restraint on a
seat protected by an active airbag in front of it. Death or serious injury to the child can occur.
WARNINGS
Your vehicle is equipped with a passenger airbag deactivation
switch. See Passenger Airbag (page 27). You must switch the airbag off when using a rearward facing child seat on the front seat. Make sure you switch the airbag back on following removal of the rearward facing child seat.
Use an approved child seat to secure
children less than 60 in (150 cm) tall
on the rear seat.
Read and follow the manufacturers
instructions when you are installing
a child seat.
Do not modify child seats in any way.
Do not hold a child on your lap when
your vehicle is moving.
Do not leave unattended children in
your vehicle.
If your vehicle has been involved in a
crash, have the child seats checked
by an authorized dealer.
Only child seats certified to ECE-R44.03 (or later) have been tested and approved for use in your vehicle. A choice of these are available from an authorized dealer.
Note: Mandatory use of child seats varies from country to country.
Child Seats for Different Mass Groups
Use the correct child seat as follows:

Child Safety
Page 19
Booster Seat (Group 2)
We recommend that you use a booster seat that combines a cushion with a backrest instead of a booster cushion only. The raised seating position will allow you to position the shoulder strap of the adult safety belt over the center of your childs shoulder and the lap strap tightly across their hips.
Booster Cushion (Group 3)
ISOFIX Anchor Points
WARNING
Use an anti-rotation device when using the ISOFIX system. We recommend the use of a top tether
or support leg.
Your vehicle has ISOFIX anchor points that accommodate universally approved ISOFIX child seats.
The ISOFIX system has two rigid attachment arms on the child seat that attach to anchor points on the second row seats, where the cushion and backrest meet. Tether anchor points are fitted to the underside or rear of the second row seats for child seats with a top tether.
Note: When you are purchasing an ISOFIX seat, make sure that you know the correct mass group and ISOFIX size class for the intended seating locations. See Child Seat Positioning (page 19).

CHILD SEAT POSITIONING

WARNINGS
See an authorized dealer for the latest details relating to our recommended child seats.
WARNINGS
Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing child seat on a seat protected by an air bag in front of it!
When using a child seat with a support leg, the support leg must rest securely on the floor.
You must reinstall the head restraint following the removal of the child seat. See Head Restraints (page
81). When using a child seat with a safety
belt, make sure that the safety belt is not slack or twisted.
Make sure the child seat rests tightly against the vehicle seat. If necessary, adjust the seatback to an upright
position. Failure to follow this warning could result in serious personal injury or death.
Note: When using a child seat on a front seat, always adjust the front passenger seat to its fully rearward position. If it proves difficult to tighten the lap section of the safety belt without slack remaining, adjust the seatback to the fully upright position and raise the height of the seat. See Seats (page 81).

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

WARNINGS
Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in front
of it!
Do not modify the front of your vehicle in any way. This could adversely affect deployment of the
airbags.
Wear a safety belt and keep sufficient distance between yourself
and the steering wheel. Only when you use the safety 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 81).
Repairs to the steering wheel,
steering column, seats, airbags and
safety belts must be carried out by an authorized dealer.
Keep the areas in front of the airbags
free from obstruction. Do not affix
anything to or over the airbag covers.
Do not puncture the seat with sharp
objects. This could damage and
adversely affect deployment of the airbags.
Use seat covers designed for seats
with side airbags. Have these fitted
by an authorized dealer.
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 AIRBAG

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

Note: During wet or winter driving
conditions with ice, snow or a salty road mist, inconsistent or unexpected wiping or smearing may occur.
In these conditions, you can do the following:
Lower the sensitivity of the autowipers to reduce the amount of smearing.
Switch to normal or high-speed wipe.
Switch the autowipers off.
High sensitivityA OnB Low sensitivityC
The autowipers feature uses a rain sensor. You will find it in the area around the interior mirror. The rain sensor monitors the amount of moisture on the windshield and automatically turns on the wipers. It will adjust the wiper speed by the amount of moisture that the sensor detects on the windshield.
Use the rotary control to adjust the sensitivity of the rain sensor. With low sensitivity, the wipers will operate when the sensor detects a large amount of moisture on the windshield. With high sensitivity, the wipers will operate when the sensor detects a small amount of moisture on the windshield.
Keep the outside of the windshield clean because the rain sensor is very sensitive. If the area around the mirror is dirty, then the wipers may operate if dirt, mist or insects hit the windshield.

WINDSHIELD WASHERS

Note: Do not operate the washers when
the washer reservoir is empty. This may cause the washer pump to overheat.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Condensation in Lamp Assemblies
Exterior lamps have vents to accommodate normal changes in air pressure.
Condensation can be a natural by-product of this design. When moist air enters the lamp assembly through the vents, there is a possibility that condensation can occur when the temperature is cold. When normal condensation occurs, a fine mist can form on the interior of the lens. The fine mist eventually clears and exits through the vents during normal operation.
Clearing time may take as long as 48 hours under dry weather conditions.
Examples of acceptable condensation are:
The presence of a fine mist (no streaks, drip marks or large droplets).
A fine mist covers less than 50% of the lens.
Examples of unacceptable condensation are:
A water puddle inside the lamp.
Streaks, drip marks or large droplets
present on the interior of the lens.
If you see any unacceptable condensation, have your vehicle checked by an authorized dealer.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

Outside Air
Keep the air intakes in front of the windshield free from obstruction (such as snow or leaves) to allow the climate control system to function effectively.
Recirculated Air
WARNING
Prolonged use of recirculated air may cause the windows to mist up. If the windows mist up, follow the settings
for demisting the windshield.
The air currently in the passenger compartment recirculates. Outside air does not enter your 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 39°F (4°C). Note: When you use air conditioning, your
vehicle uses more fuel.
The system directs air through the evaporator for cooling. The evaporator extracts humidity from the air to help keep the windows free of mist. The system directs the resulting condensation to the outside of your vehicle, which may cause a small pool to form under your vehicle. This is normal.
General Information on Controlling the Interior Climate
Fully close all the windows.
Warming the Interior
Direct the air toward your feet. In cold or humid weather conditions, direct some of the air toward the windshield and the door windows.
Cooling the Interior
Direct the air toward your face.

Page 80
Used correctly the system will:
Warm the engine and the vehicle interior.
Keep the windows clear of ice in the event of frost and prevent condensation.
Avoid cold starts to assist the engine to reach operating temperature sooner.
Following a heating cycle, if you do not start the engine the system will not turn on the next programmed heating cycle.
Following a heating cycle we recommend that you drive your vehicle for at least the same period of time as the heating cycle. This prevents the vehicle battery from running out of charge.
We recommend you switch the system on for approximately 10 minutes every month to prevent the water pump or heater motor seizing.
The system will only operate if there is a minimum of 16 liters (3.5 gallons) of fuel in the vehicle fuel tank and the ambient temperature is below 59.0°F (15°C). The system will not operate if the battery charge level is low.
Note: When the system is operating, exhaust fumes will come from under your vehicle. This is normal.
Note: On vehicles with manual climate control, heating the vehicle interior will depend on the heater control settings. See Climate Control (page 73).

SITTING IN THE CORRECT POSITION

WARNINGS
Do not recline the seatback too far as this can cause the occupant to slide under the safety belt, resulting
in serious injury in the event of a collision.
Sitting improperly, out of position or with the seatback reclined too far,
can result in serious injury or death in the event of a collision. Always sit upright against your seatback, with your feet on the floor.
Do not place objects higher than the
seatback to reduce the risk of serious
injury in the event of a collision or during heavy braking.
When you use them properly, the seat, head restraint, safety belt and air bags will provide optimum protection in the event of a collision.
We recommend that you follow these guidelines:
Sit in an upright position with the base
of your spine as far back as possible.
Do not recline the seatback more than
30 degrees.
Adjust the head restraint so that the top of it is level with the top of your head and as far forward as possible. Make sure that you remain comfortable.
Keep sufficient distance between yourself and the steering wheel. We recommend a minimum of 10 inches (25 centimeters) between your breastbone and the air bag cover.
Hold the steering wheel with your arms slightly bent.
Bend your legs slightly so that you can press the pedals fully.
Position the shoulder strap of the safety belt over the center of your shoulder and position the lap strap tightly across your hips.
Make sure that your driving position is comfortable and that you can maintain full control of your vehicle.

HEAD RESTRAINTS

WARNING

GENERAL INFORMATION

WARNINGS
Extended idling at high engine speeds can produce very high
temperatures in the engine and exhaust system, creating the risk of fire or other damage.
Do not park, idle or drive your vehicle
on dry grass or other dry ground
cover. The emission system heats up the engine compartment and exhaust system, creating the risk of fire.
Do not start the engine in a closed
garage or in other enclosed areas.
Exhaust fumes can be toxic. Always open the garage door before you start the engine.
If you smell exhaust fumes inside
your vehicle, have your vehicle
checked by an authorized dealer immediately. Do not drive your vehicle if you smell exhaust fumes.
If you disconnect the battery, your vehicle may exhibit some unusual driving characteristics for approximately 5 miles (8 kilometers) after you reconnect it. This is because the engine management system must realign itself with the engine. You can disregard any unusual driving characteristics during this period.
The powertrain control system meets all Canadian interference-causing equipment standard requirements regulating the impulse electrical field or radio noise.
When you start the engine, avoid pressing the accelerator pedal before and during operation. Only use the accelerator pedal when you have difficulty starting the engine.

IGNITION SWITCH

0(off) - The ignition is off. Note: When you switch the ignition off and

STARTING A DIESEL ENGINE

Cold or Hot Engine
Note: When the temperature is below 5°F
(-15°C), you may need to crank the engine for up to 10 seconds.
Note: You can only operate the starter for a limited period of time.
Note: After a limited number of attempts to start your engine, the system will not allow you to try again until a period of time has elapsed, for example 30 minutes.
Switch the ignition on and wait until the glow plug indicator goes off.
Note: Do not touch the accelerator pedal. Note: Releasing the clutch pedal while the
engine is starting will stop the engine cranking and return to ignition on.
1. Fully depress the clutch pedal.
2. Start the engine.
Failure to Start
If the engine does not crank when the clutch pedal has been fully depressed and the ignition key is turned to position III.
1. Fully depress the clutch and brake pedals.
2. Turn the key to position III until the engine has started.

DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER

The filter forms part of the emissions reduction system on your vehicle. It filters harmful diesel particulates (soot) from the exhaust gas.
Regeneration
WARNING
Do not park or idle your vehicle over dry leaves, dry grass or other
combustible materials. The regeneration process creates 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.
Note: Avoid running out of fuel. Note: During regeneration at low speed or
engine idle, you may smell a hot metallic odor and could notice a clicking metallic sound. This is due to the high temperatures reached during regeneration and is normal.
Note: Changes in the engine or exhaust sound may be heard during the regeneration process.
Note: After you have switched your engine off the fans may continue to run for a short period of time.
The diesel particulate filter on your vehicle requires periodic regeneration to maintain its correct function. Your vehicle will carry out this process automatically.
If your journeys meet one of the following conditions:
You drive only short distances.
You frequently switch the ignition on
and off.
Your journeys contain a high level of
acceleration and deceleration.

You must carry out occasional trips with the following conditions to assist the regeneration process:
Drive your vehicle in more favorable conditions, which you will find at higher vehicle speeds in normal driving, on a main road or freeway for a minimum of 20 minutes. This drive may include short stops that will not affect the regeneration process.
Avoid prolonged idling and always observe speed limits and road conditions.
Do not switch the ignition off.
Select a suitable gear to ideally
maintain engine speed between 1500 and 3000 RPM.

SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE

Vehicles With a Turbocharger
WARNING
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.

AUTO-START-STOP

Using Auto-Start-Stop
WARNINGS
The engine may restart automatically if required by the
system. It will only automatically restart when one of the pedals is pressed. If no pedal is pressed, the Auto-Start-Stop indicator will flash and a message will appear in the information display.
Switch the ignition off before
opening the hood or carrying out any
maintenance.
Always switch the ignition off before
leaving your vehicle, as the system
may have shut down the engine but the ignition will still be live.
The system may not function if you
leave extra loads connected with the
ignition off.
The system helps reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions by shutting down the engine when your vehicle is idling, for example at traffic lights. The engine will restart when you press the clutch pedal or when required by a vehicle system, for example to prevent the vehicle battery from running out of charge.
To obtain maximum benefit from the system, move the transmission selector lever to neutral and release the clutch pedal during any stop of longer than three seconds.
Note: For vehicles with Auto-Start-Stop the battery requirement is different. You must replace the vehicle battery with one of exactly the same specification.
Note: The system only operates when the engine is warm and the outside temperature is within the system operating range.
Note: If you stall the engine and then depress the clutch pedal within five seconds, the system will automatically restart the engine.
Note: The Auto-Start-Stop indicator will illuminate green when the engine shuts down. See Warning Lamps and Indicators (page 57).
Note: When you switch the system off, the switch will illuminate.
Note: On vehicles with Eco system the Auto-Start-Stop system will be turned on in conjunction with the speed limiter. See Eco Mode (page 128). See Speed Limiter (page 124).
Switching the System Off and On
The system automatically turns on every time you switch the ignition on. To switch the system off, press the button in the instrument panel. The system turns off for the current ignition cycle only. To turn it on, press the button again. See At a Glance (page 10).
Note: If the system detects a malfunction, it will turn off. The OFF lamp on the Auto-Start-Stop switch will illuminate continuously. If this remains on after an ignition cycle, have your vehicle checked by an authorized dealer.
To Stop the Engine
1. Stop your vehicle.
2. Move the transmission selector lever to neutral.
