Maintenance Schedule and
Record
The required Scheduled Maintenance Services
listed in this booklet are considered essential to
the proper operation, safety and performance of
your Ford Motor Company vehicle. We
recommend that you also perform the Owner
Maintenance Checks listed. These services are
matters of day-to-day care that are also
important to the proper operation of your
vehicle. The recommended lubricants, fluids and
service parts conforming to Ford Specifications
are available from your dealer.
This booklet gives you a place to record the
services that are performed on your vehicle so
that you can keep a record of when parts should
be checked or replaced. Give your Maintenance
Schedule booklet to the dealer service manager.
Maintenance: An investment
An investment which will pay dividends in the
form of improved reliability, durability, and
resale value.
3
To assure the durability of your vehicle and its
emission control systems, it is necessary that
scheduled maintenance be performed at the
designated intervals.
Ford strongly recommends the use of genuine
Ford replacement parts. If other than Ford or
Motorcraft parts or Ford authorized
remanufactured parts are used for maintenance
replacements or for the service of components
affecting emission control, such non-Ford parts
should be equivalent to genuine Ford Motor
Company parts in performance and durability. It
is the owner’s responsibility to determine the
equivalency of such parts. Please consult your
warranty booklet for complete warranty
information.

Owner Maintenance
Checks
Listed below are vehicle maintenance checks and
inspections that should be performed by the
owner or qualified service technician at the
indicated intervals to help ensure safe
dependable operation of your vehicle.
Any adverse conditions should be brought to the
attention of your dealer or qualified service
technician for service advice as soon as possible.
These Owner Maintenance Checks are generally
not covered by warranties and you may be
charged for labor, parts and lubricants used.
When You Stop for Fuel:
Check the engine oil level.
❑
Check coolant level in coolant recovery bottle.
❑
Check the windshield washer fluid level.
❑
Look for low or under-inflated tires.
❑
While Operating Your Vehicle:
Note any changes in the sound of the exhaust
❑
or any smell of exhaust fumes in the vehicle.
Check for vibrations in the steering wheel.
❑
Notice any increased steering effort or
looseness in the steering wheel, or change in
its straight-ahead position.
Notice if your vehicle constantly turns
❑
slightly or “pulls” to one side when traveling
on smooth, level road.
28 Owner Maintenance Checks
When stopping, listen and check for strange
❑
sounds, pulling to one side, increased brake
pedal travel or “hard-to-push” brake pedal.
If any slipping or changes in the operation of
❑
your transaxle occurs, check the transaxle
fluid level.
Check automatic transaxle P (Park) function.
❑
Check parking brake.
❑
At Least Monthly:
Check coolant level in the coolant recovery
❑
reservoir.
Check operation of lamps, horn, turn signals,
❑
windshield wipers and washers, and hazard
warning flashers.
Check windshield defroster to be sure that air
❑
comes out of the defroster outlets properly
and that enough air is discharged when also
running the heater or air conditioner.
Check warning lights and chimes to be sure
❑
they are operating properly.
Check for fluid leaks by inspecting the
❑
surface beneath your vehicle for oil, coolant,
or other fluid drips. Clean water dripping
from the air conditioning system is normal.
At least twice a year:
(i.e., every Spring and Fall)
Check power steering fluid level.
❑
Check radiator, heater and air conditioning
❑
hoses for leaks or damage.
Check for worn tires and loose wheel lug
❑
nuts.
Owner Maintenance Checks 29
Check windshield washer spray and wiper
❑
operation. Clean wiper blades with clean
cloth dampened with washer fluid.
Clean body and door drain holes.
❑
Flush complete underside of vehicle.
❑
Inspect underbody components for damage.
❑
Check exhaust system for leaks, damaged or
❑
loose parts and remove any foreign material
trapped by shielding.
NOTE: It is normal for a certain amount of
moisture and staining to be present
around the muffler seams. The
presence of soot, light surface rust or
moisture does not indicate a faulty
muffler.
Check parking brake system.
❑
Check that the brake does not pull the vehicle
❑
to one side when applied. See that brake
pedal operates smoothly and has the proper
distance under it when depressed fully.
Check headlamp alignment.
❑
Check lap and shoulder belts for wear and
❑
function.
Inspect seatback latches for proper operation.
❑
Make sure that the seat latches securely in
every reclining position. Check that head
restraints move up and down smoothly and
lock in each position. Check seat leg latches
on removable seats to see that they lock
securely in every anchor position.
Check air pressure in spare tire.
❑
30 Owner Maintenance Checks
At Least Once a Year:
Lubricate door hinges and checks, and hood
❑
hinges.
Lubricate door and hood locks and latches.
❑
Lubricate door rubber weatherstrips.
❑
Inspect and lubricate automatic transaxle
❑
linkage and controls.
Clean battery and terminals, check electrolyte
❑
level on low maintenance (auxiliary and
replacement) batteries.
