In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a safety belt. Each seating position in your vehicle has a specific safety belt assembly which is made up of one buckle and one tongue that are designed to be used as a pair .
• Front and rear seats All safety restraints in the vehicle are combination lap and shoulder belts. All of the passenger combination lap and shoulder belts have two types of locking modes described .
How to use the automatic locking mode 1. Buckle the combination lap and shoulder belt. 2. Grasp the shoulder portion and pull downward until the entire belt is pulled out. 3. Allow the belt to retract. As the belt retracts, you will hear a clicking sound.
BEL T AND RETRACTOR ASSEMBL Y MUST BE REPLACED if the safety belt assembly “ automatic locking retractor ” feature or any other safety belt function is not operating properly . In addition, all safety belts should be checked for proper function. Failure to replace the belt and retractor assembly could increase the risk of injury in collisions.
Front and second row safety belt height adjustment Y our vehicle has safety belt height adjustments for the driver , right front passenger and second row outboard passengers. Adjust the height of the shoulder belt so the belt rests across the middle of your shoulder .
BeltMinder The BeltMinder feature is a supplemental warning to the safety belt warning function. This feature provides additional reminders to the driver that the driver ’ s safety belt is unbuckled by intermittently sounding a chime and illuminating the safety belt warning lamp in the instrument cluster .
Reasons given... Consider ... “ Belts are uncomfortable ” W e design our safety belts to enhance comfort. If you are uncomfortable - try different positions for the safety belt upper anchorage and seatback which should be as upright as possible; this can improve comfort.
Do not sit on top of a buckled safety belt to avoid the Belt Minder chime. Sitting on the safety belt will increase the risk of injury in an accident. T o disable (one-time) or deactivate the Belt Minder feature please follow the directions stated below .
5. Buckle then unbuckle the safety belt three times, ending with the safety belt unbuckled. • After step 5 the safety belt warning light will be turned on for three seconds. 6. W ithin seven seconds of the safety belt warning light turning off, buckle then unbuckle the safety belt.
recommends that all safety belt assemblies used in vehicles involved in a collision be replaced. However , if the collision was minor and a qualified technician finds that the belts do not show damage and continue to operate properly , they do not need to be replaced.
All occupants of the vehicle, including the driver , should always properly wear their safety belts, even when an air bag (SRS) is provided. Always transport children 12 years old and under in the back seat and always properly use appropriate child restraints.
Children and air bags Children must always be properly restrained. Accident statistics suggest that children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seating positions than in the front seating position. Failure to follow these instructions may increase the risk of injury in a collision.
The air bags inflate and deflate rapidly upon activation. After air bag deployment, it is normal to notice a smoke-like, powdery residue or smell the burnt propellant. This may consist of cornstarch, talcum powder (to lubricate the bag) or sodium compounds (e.
The RCM (restraints control module) monitors its own internal circuits and the supplemental air bag electrical system warning (including the impact sensors, the system wiring, the air bag system readiness light, the air bag back up power and the air bag ignitors).
How does the Safety Canopy 姟 system work? The design and development of the Safety Canopy 娂 system included recommended testing procedures that were developed by a group of automotive safety experts known as the Side Airbag T echnical W orking Group.
The Safety Canopy 娂 is mounted to the roof side-rail sheet metal, behind the headliner , above the first and second row seats. In certain lateral collisions or rollover events, the Safety Canopy 娂 system will be activated, regardless of which seats are occupied.
Any difficulty with the system is indicated by one or more of the following: • The readiness light (same light as for front air bag system) will either flash or stay lit. • The readiness light will not illuminate immediately after ignition is turned on.
Children and safety belts If the child is the proper size, restrain the child in a safety seat. Children who are too large for child safety seats (as specified by your child safety seat manufacturer) should always wear safety belts. Follow all the important safety restraint and air bag precautions that apply to adult passengers in your vehicle.
Booster seats should be used until you can answer YES to ALL of these questions: • Can the child sit all the way back against the vehicle seat back with knees bent comfortably at the edge of the sea.
The shoulder belt should cross the chest, resting snugly on the center of the shoulder . The lap belt should rest low and snug across the hips, never up high across the stomach. If the booster seat slides on the vehicle seat, placing a rubberized mesh sold as shelf or carpet liner under the booster seat may improve this condition.
When installing a child safety seat: • Review and follow the information presented in the Air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) section in this chapter . • Use the correct safety belt buckle for that seating position (the buckle closest to the direction the tongue is coming from).
Installing child safety seats with combination lap and shoulder belts Air bags can kill or injure a child in a child seat. NEVER place a rear -facing child seat in front of an active air bag. If you must use a forward-facing child seat in the front seat, move the seat all the way back.
3. While holding the shoulder and lap belt portions together , route the tongue through the child seat according to the child seat manufacturer ’ s instructions.
7. Pull the lap belt portion across the child seat toward the buckle and pull up on the shoulder belt while pushing down with your knee on the child seat.
• 40/20/40 second row seats • second row bucket seats Attach the tether strap only to the appropriate tether anchor as shown. The tether strap may not work properly if attached somewhere other than the correct tether anchor . 1. Position the child safety seat on the rear seat cushion.
• At the rear of the cargo area 4. Clip the tether strap to the anchor . If the tether strap is clipped incorrectly , the child safety seat may not be retained properly in the event of a collision.
Attaching safety seats with LA TCH (Lower Anchors and T ethers for Children) attachments for child seat anchors Some child safety seats have two rigid or webbing mounted attachments that connect to two anchors at certain seating positions in your vehicle.
The lower anchors for child seat installation are located at the rear section of the second row seat between the cushion and seat back. The LA TCH anchors are below the locator symbols on the seat back. Follow the child seat manufacturer ’ s instructions to properly install a child seat with LA TCH attachments.

IDENTIFYING COMPONENTS IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT 4.6L V8 engines 1. Engine oil dipstick 2. Brake fluid reservoir 3. Power distribution box 4. Battery 5. Power steering fluid reservoir 6. Engine oil filler cap 7. Engine coolant reservoir 8. W indshield washer fluid reservoir 9.
WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID Add fluid to fill the reservoir if the level is low . In very cold weather , do not fill the reservoir completely . Only use a washer fluid that meets Ford specification WSB-M8B16 – A2. Refer to Lubricant specifications in this chapter .
4. Open the hood. Protect yourself from engine heat. 5. Locate and carefully remove the engine oil level indicator (dipstick). 6. W ipe the indicator clean. Insert the indicator fully , then remove it again. • If the oil level is between the MIN and MAX marks, the oil level is acceptable.
• If the oil level is below the MIN mark, add enough oil to raise the level within the MIN-MAX range. • Oil levels above the MAX mark may cause engine damage. Some oil must be removed from the engine by a service technician. 7. Put the indicator back in and ensure it is fully seated.
Engine oil and filter recommendations Look for this certification trademark. Use SAE 5W -20 engine oil. Only use oils “ Certified For Gasoline Engines ” by the American Petroleum Institute (API). T o protect your engine ’ s warranty use Motorcraft SAE 5W -20 or an equivalent 5W -20 oil meeting Ford specification WSS-M2C153 – H.
BATTERY Y our vehicle is equipped with a Motorcraft maintenance-free battery which normally does not require additional water during its life of service. However , for severe usage or in high temperature climates, check the battery electrolyte level. Refer to the scheduled maintenance guide for the service interval schedules.
When lifting a plastic-cased battery , excessive pressure on the end walls could cause acid to flow through the vent caps, resulting in personal injury and/or damage to the vehicle or battery . Lift the battery with a battery carrier or with your hands on opposite corners.
If the battery has been disconnected or a new battery has been installed, the clock and the preset radio stations must be reset once the battery is reconnected. • Always dispose of automotive batteries in a responsible manner . Follow your local authorized standards for disposal.
When the engine is cold, check the level of the engine coolant in the reservoir . • The engine coolant should be at the “ cold fill level ” or within the “ cold fill range ” as listed on the engine coolant reservoir (depending upon application).
• A large amount of water without engine coolant may be added, in case of emergency , to reach a vehicle service location. In this instance, the cooling system must be drained and refilled with a 50/50 mixture of engine coolant and distilled water as soon as possible.
Severe climates If you drive in extremely cold (less than – 36 ° C[ – 34 ° F]) or extremely hot climates, it may be necessary to adjust the coolant concentration levels. • Extreme cold: increase the coolant concentration above 50%. NEVER increase the coolant concentration above 60%.
Continued operation will increase the engine temperature: • The engine will completely shut down. • Steering and braking effort will increase. Once the engine temperature cools, the engine can be re-started. T ake your vehicle to a service facility as soon as possible to minimize engine damage.
If you do not use the proper fuel filler cap, excessive pressure or vacuum in the fuel tank may damage the fuel system or cause the fuel cap to disengage in a collision, which may result in possible personal injury . Automotive fuels can cause serious injury or death if misused or mishandled.
splashed on the skin, promptly wash skin thoroughly with soap and water . Consult a physician immediately if you experience an adverse reaction. When refueling always shut the engine off and never allow sparks or open flames near the filler neck. Never smoke while refueling.

with the recommended octane rating, see your dealer or a qualified service technician to prevent any engine damage. Fuel quality If you are experiencing starting, rough idle or hesitation driveability problems during a cold start, try a different brand of gasoline.
ESSENTIALS OF GOOD FUEL ECONOMY Measuring techniques Y our best source of information about actual fuel economy is you, the driver . Y ou must gather information as accurately and consistently as possible. Fuel expense, frequency of fill-ups or fuel gauge readings are NOT accurate as a measure of fuel economy .
Calculating fuel economy 1. Fill the fuel tank completely and record the initial odometer reading (in kilometers or miles). 2. Each time you fill the tank, record the amount of fuel added (in liters or gallons). 3. After at least three to five tank fill-ups, fill the fuel tank and record the current odometer reading.
• Y ou may want to turn off the speed control in hilly terrain if unnecessary shifting between gears occurs. Unnecessary shifting of this type could result in reduced fuel economy . • W arming up a vehicle on cold mornings is not required and may reduce fuel economy .
EP A window sticker Every new vehicle should have the EP A window sticker . Contact your dealer if the window sticker is not supplied with your vehicle. The EP A window sticker should be your guide for the fuel economy comparisons with other vehicles.
Exhaust leaks may result in entry of harmful and potentially lethal fumes into the passenger compartment. Do not make any unauthorized changes to your vehicle or engine.
1. Start the engine and let it run until it reaches normal operating temperature (the engine coolant temperature gauge indicator will be near the center of the normal area between H and C). 2. While the engine idles, turn the steering wheel left and right several times.
T RANSMISSION FLUID Checking automatic transmission fluid The automatic transmission does not have a transmission fluid dipstick. Refer to your scheduled maintenance guide for scheduled intervals for fluid checks and changes. Y our transmission does not consume fluid.
government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and one-half (1 1/2) times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100.
• Adjust tire pressure to recommended specifications found on the Certification Label. T ire pressure information can also be found on the T ire Information label located on the inside of the fuel filler door . • Check tires for proper air pressure monthly .
Replacing the tires Replace the tires when the wear band is visible through the tire treads. Due to exposure to the elements and exhaust you should replace the spare tire when you replace the other tires. When replacing full size tires, never mix radial bias-belted, or bias-type tires.
Follow these guidelines when using snow tires and chains: • Use only cable type chains or chains offered by Ford as an accessory or equivalent. Other conventional link type chains may contact and cause damage to the vehicle ’ s wheel house and/or body .
