Reclining the seatback can reduce the effectiveness of the seat’ s safety belt in the event of a collision.
• Restraints Control Module (RCM) with impact and safing sensors. • Restraint system warning light and back-up tone. • The electrical wiring for the air bags, crash sensor(s), safety belt pretensioners, front safety belt usage sensors, driver seat position sensor , passenger occupant classification sensor (if equipped), and indicator lights.
Driver ’ s seat position sensor The driver’ s seat position sensor allows your Personal safety system to tailor the deployment level of the driver dual-stage air bag based on seat position. The system is designed to help protect smaller drivers sitting close to the driver air bag by providing a lower air bag output level.
Front safety belt usage sensors The front safety belt usage sensors detect whether or not the driver and front outboard passenger safety belts are fastened. This information allows your Personal safety system to tailor the air bag deployment and safety belt pretensioner activation depending upon safety belt usage.
If any of these things happen, even intermittently , have the Personal safety system serviced at your dealership or by a qualified technician immediately .
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 . 1) Use the shoulder belt on the outside shoulder only . Never wear the shoulder belt under the arm.
The front and rear outboard safety restraints in the vehicle are combination lap and shoulder belts. The front passenger and rear seat outboard safety belts have two types of locking modes described b.
• Grasp the shoulder portion and pull downward until the entire belt is extracted. • Allow the belt to retract. As the belt retracts, you will hear a clicking sound.
Front safety belt height adjustment Y our vehicle has safety belt height adjustments for the driver and front passenger . Adjust the height of the shoulder belt so the belt rests across the middle of your shoulder . T o lower the shoulder belt height, push the button and slide the height adjuster down.
The lap belt does not adjust automatically . Insert the tongue into the correct buckle (the buckle closest to the direction the tongue is coming from). T o lengthen the belt, turn the tongue at a right angle to the belt and pull across your lap until it reaches the buckle.
Conditions of operation If... Then... The driver’ s safety belt is not buckled before the ignition switch is turned to the ON position... The safety belt warning light illuminates 1-2 minutes and the warning chime sounds 4-8 seconds. The driver’ s safety belt is buckled while the indicator light is illuminated and the warning chime is sounding.
If... Then... The driver’ s safety belt is buckled before the ignition switch is turned to the ON position... The BeltMinder feature will not activate. The purpose of the BeltMinder is to remind occasional wearers to wear safety belts all of the time.
Reasons given... Consider ... “Belts wrinkle my clothes” Possibly , but a serious crash can do much more than wrinkle your clothes, particularly if you are unbelted. “The people I’m with don’ t wear belts” Set the example, teen deaths occur 4 times more often in vehicles with TWO or MORE people.
• the ignition switch is in the OFF position • all vehicle doors are closed • the driver’ s safety belt is unbuckled • the parklamps/headlamps are in OFF position (If vehicle is equipped with Autolamps, this will not affect the procedure.
Safety belt extension assembly If the safety belt is too short when fully extended, there is a 20 cm (8 inch) safety belt extension assembly that can be added (part number 611C22). This assembly can be obtained from your dealer at no cost. Use only extensions manufactured by the same supplier as the safety belt.
AIR BAG SUPPLEMENT AL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) Y our vehicle is equipped with a crash sensing and diagnostic module which records information about the air bag and sensor systems. In the event of a collision this module may save information related to the collision including information about the air bag system and impact severity .
Always transport children 12 years old and under in the back seat and always properly use appropriate child restraints. National Highway T raffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recommends a minimum distance of at least 25 cm (10 inches) between an occupant’ s chest and the driver air bag module.
Children and air bags For additional important safety information, read all information on safety restraints in this guide. 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.
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.
If the air bag has deployed, the air bag will not function again and must be replaced immediately . If the air bag is not replaced, the unrepaired area will increase the risk of injury in a collision. Determining if the system is operational The SRS uses a readiness light in the instrument cluster or a tone to indicate the condition of the system.
SAFETY RESTRAINTS FOR CHILDREN See the following sections for directions on how to properly use safety restraints for children. Also see Air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) in this chapter for special instructions about using air bags.
T o improve the fit of lap and shoulder belts on children who have outgrown child safety seats, Ford recommends use of a belt-positioning booster seat that is labelled as conforming to all applicable Federal motor vehicle safety standards.
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 in combination lap and shoulder belt seating positions 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.
5. Push down on the child seat while pulling on the loose end of the lap belt webbing to tighten the belt. 6. Before placing the child into the child seat, forcibly tilt the child seat from side to side and in forward direction to make sure that the seat is held securely in place.
3. Locate the correct anchor for the selected seating position. 4. Open the tether anchor cover . 5. Clip the tether strap to the anchor as shown. If the tether strap is clipped incorrectly , the child safety seat may not be retained properly in the event of a collision.

SERVICE RECOMMENDATIONS T o help you service your vehicle: • W e highlight do-it-yourself items in the engine compartment for easy location. • W e provide a scheduled maintenance guide which makes tracking routine service easy . If your vehicle requires professional service, your dealership can provide the necessary parts and service.
W orking with the engine on 1. Set the parking brake and ensure the gearshift is securely latched in P (Park). 2. Block the wheels to prevent the vehicle from moving unexpectedly . Note: Do not start your engine with the air cleaner removed and do not remove it while the engine is running.
IDENTIFYING COMPONENTS IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT 4.6L SOHC V8 engine 1. Brake fluid reservoir 2. Engine oil dipstick 3. Engine oil filler cap 4. W indshield washer fluid reservoir 5. Air filter assembly 6. Power steering fluid reservoir 7. Engine coolant reservoir 8.
WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID W asher fluid Check the washer fluid whenever you stop for fuel. The reservoir is highlighted with a symbol. If the level is low , add enough fluid to fill the reservoir . In very cold weather , do not fill the reservoir all the way .
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.
• Do not overfill the engine with oil. Oil levels above this mark may cause engine damage. If the engine is overfilled, some oil must be removed from the engine by a qualified service technician. 7. Put the indicator back in and ensure it is fully seated.
Do not use supplemental engine oil additives, oil treatments or engine treatments. They are unnecessary and could, under certain conditions, lead to engine damage which is not covered by your warranty . Change your engine oil and filter according to the appropriate schedule listed in the scheduled maintenance guide.
If you see any corrosion on the battery or terminals, remove the cables from the terminals and clean with a wire brush. Y ou can neutralize the acid with a solution of baking soda and water . Batteries normally produce explosive gases which can cause personal injury .
Because your vehicle’ s engine is electronically controlled by a computer , some control conditions are maintained by power from the battery . When the battery is disconnected or a new battery is installed, the engine must relearn its idle and fuel trim strategy for optimum driveability and performance.
ENGINE COOLANT Checking engine coolant The concentration and level of engine coolant should be checked at the mileage intervals listed in the scheduled maintenance guide. The coolant concentration should be maintained at 50/50 coolant and water , which equates to a freeze point of -36° C (-34° F).
If the engine coolant has not been checked at the recommended interval, the engine coolant reservoir may become low or empty . If the reservoir is low or empty , add engine coolant to the reservoir .
• 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.
reservoir . If you removed the radiator cap in an overflow system, fill the radiator until the coolant is visible and radiator is almost full. 6. Replace the cap.
Severe climates If you drive in extremely cold climates (less than –36° C [–34° F]): • It may be necessary to increase the coolant concentration above 50%.
How fail-safe cooling works • Standard cluster • Optional cluster If the engine begins to overheat: • The engine coolant temperature gauge will move to the H (hot) area (if your vehicle is equipped with analog gauges).
Continued operation will increase the engine temperature: • The symbol will begin to flash. • If your vehicle is equipped with digital gauges, the gauge bars will flash and a tone will sound every five seconds for one minute. • The engine will completely shut down, causing steering and braking effort to increase.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT AUTOMOTIVE FUELS Important safety precautions Do not overfill the fuel tank. The pressure in an overfilled tank may cause leakage and lead to fuel spray and fire.
Observe the following guidelines when handling automotive fuel: • Extinguish all smoking materials and any open flames before fueling your vehicle. • Always turn off the vehicle before fueling. • Automotive fuels can be harmful or fatal if swallowed.
The flow of fuel through a fuel pump nozzle can produce static electricity , which can cause a fire if fuel is pumped into an ungrounded fuel container . Use the following guidelines to avoid static build-up when filling an ungrounded fuel container: • Place approved fuel container on the ground.
The fuel system may be under pressure. If the fuel filler cap is venting vapor or if you hear a hissing sound, wait until it stops before completely removing the fuel filler cap.
more pronounced. If the problems persist, see your dealer or a qualified service technician. It should not be necessary to add any aftermarket products to your fuel tank if you continue to use high quality fuel of the recommended octane rating. Aftermarket products could cause damage to the fuel system.
Replace the fuel filter with an authorized Motorcraft part. The customer warranty may be void for any damage to the fuel system if an authorized Motorcraft fuel filter is not used. ESSENTIALS OF GOOD FUEL ECONOMY Measuring techniques Y our best source of information about actual fuel economy is you, the driver .
• Have the vehicle loading and distribution the same every time. Y our results will be most accurate if your filling method is consistent. Calculating fuel economy 1. Fill the fuel tank completely and record the initial odometer reading (in kilometers or miles).
• Driving at reasonable speeds (traveling at 88 km/h [55 mph] uses 15% less fuel than traveling at 105 km/h [65 mph]). • Revving the engine before turning it off may reduce fuel economy . • Using the air conditioner or defroster may reduce fuel economy .
• T ransmissions give their best fuel economy when operated in the top cruise gear and with steady pressure on the gas pedal. • Close windows for high speed driving. 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.
Illumination of the “Check Engine” light, charging system warning light or the temperature warning light, fluid leaks, strange odors, smoke or loss of engine power , could indicate that the emission control system is not working properly . Exhaust leaks may result in entry of harmful and potentially lethal fumes into the passenger compartment.
CHECKING AND ADDING POWER STEERING FLUID Check the power steering fluid. Refer to the scheduled maintenance guide for the service interval schedules. If adding fluid is necessary , use only MERCON t AT F .
BRAKE FLUID Checking and adding brake fluid Brake fluid should be checked and refilled as needed. Refer to the scheduled maintenance guide for the service interval schedules. 1. Clean the reservoir cap before removal to prevent dirt or water from entering the reservoir .
T RANSMISSION FLUID Checking automatic transmission fluid (if equipped) Refer to your scheduled maintenance guide for scheduled intervals for fluid checks and changes. Y our transmission does not consume fluid. However , the fluid level should be checked if the transmission is not working properly , i.
Correct fluid level The transmission fluid should be checked at normal operating temperature 66°C-77°C (150°F-170°F) on a level surface. The normal operating temperature can be reached after approximately 30 km (20 miles) of driving. Y ou can check the fluid without driving if the ambient temperature is above 10°C (50°F).
Use of a non-approved automatic transmission fluid may cause internal transmission component damage. If necessary , add fluid in 250 ml (1/2 pint) increments through the filler tube until the level is correct. If an overfill occurs, excess fluid should be removed by a qualified technician.
6. Install a new air filter element. Be careful not to crimp the filter element edges between the air filter housing and cover . This could cause filter damage and allow unfiltered air to enter the engine if not properly seated. 7. Replace the air filter housing cover and secure the clamps.
T readwear The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified 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.
SER VICING YOUR TIRES Checking the tire pressure • Use an accurate tire pressure gauge. • Check the tire pressure when tires are cold, after the vehicle has been parked for at least one hour or has been driven less than 5 km (3 miles). • Adjust tire pressure to recommended specifications found on the T ire Pressure label.
• Five tire rotation (for vehicles with steel wheels and full size spare tires) Replacing the tires Replace the tires when the wear band is visible through the tire treads. When replacing full size tires, never mix radial bias-belted, or bias-type tires.
Failure to follow these precautions may adversely affect the handling of the vehicle and make it easier for the driver to lose control and roll over . T ires that are larger or smaller than your vehicle’ s original tires may also affect the accuracy of your speedometer .
