Introduction

Fuel pump shut-off switch: In the event of an accident the

safety switch will automatically cut off the fuel supply to the

engine. The switch can also be activated through sudden vibration

(e.g. collision when parking). To reset the switch, refer to the Fuel

pump shut-off switch in the Roadside Emergencies chapter.

SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION

Warning symbols in this guide

How can you reduce the risk of personal injury to yourself or others?

In this guide, answers to such questions are contained in comments

Introduction

BREAKING-IN YOUR VEHICLE

Your vehicle does not need an extensive break-in. Try not to drive

continuously at the same speed for the first 1,000 miles (1,600 km) of

new vehicle operation. Vary your speed frequently in order to give the

moving parts a chance to break in.

Drive your new vehicle at least 1,000 miles (1,600 km) before towing a

trailer. For more detailed information about towing a trailer, refer to

Trailer towing in the Tires, Wheels and Loading chapter.

Do not add friction modifier compounds or special break-in oils since

these additives may prevent piston ring seating. See Engine oil in the

Maintenance and Specifications chapter for more information on oil

usage.

SPECIAL NOTICES

New Vehicle Limited Warranty

For a detailed description of what is covered and what is not covered by

your vehicle’s New Vehicle Limited Warranty, refer to the Warranty

Guide that is provided to you along with your Owner’s Guide.

Special instructions

For your added safety, your vehicle is fitted with sophisticated electronic

controls.

Please read the section Airbag supplemental restraint system

(SRS) in the Seating and Safety Restraints chapter. Failure to

follow the specific warnings and instructions could result in personal

injury.

Front seat mounted rear-facing child or infant seats should

NEVER be placed in front of an active passenger airbag.

Introduction

Service Data Recording

Service data recorders in your vehicle are capable of collecting and

storing diagnostic information about your vehicle. This potentially

includes information about the performance or status of various systems

and modules in the vehicle, such as engine, throttle, steering or brake

systems. In order to properly diagnose and service your vehicle, Ford

Motor Company, Ford of Canada, and service and repair facilities may

access vehicle diagnostic information through a direct connection to your

vehicle when diagnosing or servicing your vehicle.

Event Data Recording

Other modules in your vehicle — event data recorders — are capable of

collecting and storing data during a crash or near crash event. The

recorded information may assist in the investigation of such an event.

The modules may record information about both the vehicle and the

occupants, potentially including information such as:

•how various systems in your vehicle were operating;

•whether or not the driver and passenger seatbelts were buckled;

•how far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or the

brake pedal;

•how fast the vehicle was traveling; and

•where the driver was positioning the steering wheel.

To access this information, special equipment must be directly connected

to the recording modules. Ford Motor Company and Ford of Canada do

not access event data recorder information without obtaining consent,

unless pursuant to court order or where required by law enforcement,

other government authorities or other third parties acting with lawful

authority. Other parties may seek to access the information

independently of Ford Motor Company and Ford of Canada.

Introduction

Notice to owners of pickup trucks and utility type vehicles

Utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than

other types of vehicles.

Before you drive your vehicle, please read this Owner’s Guide carefully.

Your vehicle is not a passenger car. As with other vehicles of this type,

failure to operate this vehicle correctly may result in loss of vehicle

control, vehicle rollover, personal injury or death.

Using your vehicle with a snowplow

Do not use this vehicle for snowplowing.

Your vehicle is not equipped with a snowplowing package.

Using your vehicle as an ambulance

Do not use this vehicle as an ambulance.

Your vehicle is not equipped with the Ford Ambulance Preparation

Package.

Cell phone use

The use of Mobile Communications Equipment has become increasingly

important in the conduct of business and personal affairs. However,

drivers must not compromise their 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, in-vehicle communications

systems, telematics devices and portable two-way radios.

Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle control,

accident and injury. Ford strongly recommends that drivers use

extreme caution when using any device that may take their focus off

the road. The drivers primary responsibility is the safe operation of

their vehicle. Only use cell phones and other devices not essential to

the driving task when it is safe to do so.
