WARNINGS
Switch the ignition off before touching or attempting adjustment of any kind.
Do not touch the electronic ignition system parts after you have switched the ignition on or when the engine is running. The system operates at high voltage.
Keep your hands and clothing clear of the engine cooling fan. Under certain conditions, the fan may continue to run for several minutes after you have switched the engine off.
CAUTION
When carrying out maintenance checks, make sure that filler caps are fitted securely.

Maintenance
ENGINE OIL CHECK
CAUTION
Do not use oil additives or other engine treatments. Under certain conditions, they could damage the engine.
Note: The oil consumption of new engines reaches its normal level after approximately
5000 kilometers (3000 miles).
Checking the oil level
CAUTION
Make sure that the level is between the MIN and the MAX marks.
Note: Check the level before starting the engine.
Note: Make sure that your vehicle is on level ground.
Note: Oil expands when it is hot. The level may therefore extend a few millimeters beyond the MAX mark.
Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean, lint free cloth. Replace the dipstick and remove it again to check the oil level.
If the level is at the MIN mark, top up immediately.
Topping up
WARNINGS
Only top up when the engine is cold.
If the engine is hot, wait 10 minutes for the engine to cool down.
Do not remove the filler cap when the engine is running.
Remove the filler cap.
WARNING
Do not top up further than the MAX mark.
Note: Soak up any spillage with an absorbent cloth immediately.
Top up with fluid that meets the Ford
specification. See Technical
Specifications (page 246).
Replace the filler cap. Turn it until you feel a strong resistance.
ENGINE COOLANT CHECK
Checking the coolant level
WARNING
Do not allow the fluid to touch your skin or eyes. If this happens, rinse the affected areas immediately with plenty of water and contact your doctor.
CAUTION
Make sure that the level is between the MIN and the MAX marks.
Note: Coolant expands when it is hot. The level may therefore extend beyond the MAX mark.
If the level is at the MIN mark, top up immediately.
Topping up
WARNINGS
Only top up when the engine is cold.
If the engine is hot, wait 10 minutes for the engine to cool down.
Do not remove the filler cap when the engine is running.

Maintenance
WARNINGS
Do not remove the filler cap when the engine is hot. Wait for the engine to cool down.
Undiluted coolant is flammable and may ignite if spilt on a hot exhaust.
CAUTIONS
In an emergency, you can add just water to the cooling system to reach a vehicle service station. Have the system checked by a properly trained technician as soon as possible.
Prolonged use of incorrect dilution of the coolant can cause engine damage from corrosion, overheating or freezing.
Unscrew the cap slowly . Any pressure will escape slowly as you unscrew the cap.
CAUTION
Do not top up further than the MAX mark.
Top up with a 50/50 mixture of coolant and water using fluid that meets the Ford
specification. See Technical
Specifications (page 246).
BRAKE AND CLUTCH FLUID
CHECK
WARNINGS
Use of any fluid other than the recommended brake fluid may reduce brake efficiency and not meet
Ford's performance standards.
Do not allow the fluid to touch your skin or eyes. If this happens, rinse the affected areas immediately with plenty of water and contact your doctor.
WARNINGS
If the level is at the MIN mark, have the system checked by a properly trained technician as soon as possible.
Note: Keep brake fluid clean and dry.
Contamination with dirt, water, petroleum products or other materials may result in brake system damage and possible failure.
Note: The brake and the clutch systems are supplied from the same reservoir.
Top up with fluid that meets the Ford
specification. See Technical
Specifications (page 246).
POWER STEERING FLUID
CHECK
WARNING
Do not allow the fluid to touch your skin or eyes. If this happens, rinse the affected areas immediately with plenty of water and contact your doctor.
CAUTION
Make sure that the level is between the MIN and the MAX marks.
If the level is at the MIN mark, top up immediately.
Topping up
Remove the filler cap.
CAUTION
Do not top up further than the MAX mark.
Top up with fluid that meets the Ford
specification. See Technical
Specifications (page 246).

Maintenance
WASHER FLUID CHECK
Note: The front and rear washer systems are supplied from the same reservoir.
When topping up, use a mixture of washer fluid and water to help prevent freezing in cold weather and improve the cleaning capability. We recommend that you use only high quality washer fluid.
For information on fluid dilution, refer to the product instructions.

Your engine has been designed to be used with Castrol and Ford Engine Oil, which gives a fuel economy benefit whilst maintaining the durability of your engine.
Topping up the oil: If you are unable to find an oil that meets the specification defined by WSS-M2C913-C or WSS-M2C948-B (gasoline engines only), you must use SAE
5W-30 that meets the specification defined by ACEA A5/B5 .
Using topping up oils other than the one specified can result in longer engine cranking periods, reduced engine performance, reduced fuel economy and increased emission levels.
Castrol engine oil recommended.
