BATTERY

Your vehicle is equipped with a

Motorcraft maintenance-free battery

which is located in the luggage

compartment, next to the spare tire.

Your battery is designed to purge any battery gases to the outside of the

vehicle by means of a vent hose. This vent hose MUST be attached at all

times. Replacement batteries must be of the same vented design.

If your battery has a cover/shield, make sure it is reinstalled

after the battery has been cleaned or replaced.

Your battery normally does not require additional water during its life of

service. For longer, trouble-free operation, keep the top of the battery

clean and dry. Make certain that the vent hose is attached. Also, make

certain the battery cables are always tightly fastened to the battery

terminals.

If you see any corrosion on the battery or terminals, remove the cables

from the terminals and clean with a wire brush. You can neutralize the

acid with a solution of baking soda and water.

Batteries normally produce explosive gases which can cause

personal injury. Therefore, do not allow flames, sparks or lighted

substances to come near the battery. When working near the battery,

always shield your face and protect your eyes. Always provide proper

ventilation.

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.
