GENERAL MAINTENANCE INFORMATION

Why maintain your vehicle?

This guide describes the scheduled maintenance required for your

vehicle. Carefully following this schedule helps protect against major

repair expenses resulting from neglect or inadequate maintenance and

may also help to increase the value of your vehicle when you sell or

trade it.

It is your responsibility to see that all scheduled maintenance is

performed and that the materials used meet Ford engineering

specifications. Failure to perform scheduled maintenance specific in this

guide will invalidate warranty coverage on parts affected by the lack of

maintenance. Be sure receipts for completed maintenance are kept with

the vehicle and confirmation of the work performed is always recorded in

this guide.

Your dealer has factory-trained technicians who can perform the required

maintenance using genuine Ford parts. They are committed to meeting

your service needs and to assuring your continuing satisfaction.

Protecting your investment

Maintenance is an investment that will pay dividends in the form of

improved reliability, durability and resale value. To ensure the proper

performance of your vehicle and its emission control systems, it is

imperative that scheduled maintenance be completed at the designated

intervals.

For your convenience, your vehicle is equipped with a message center

which determines the proper oil change service interval. You should

perform the engine oil change as indicated by the message center. The

message center will display ENGINE OIL CHANGE SOON or OIL

CHANGE REQUIRED to indicate when an oil change is needed. The

engine oil change service needs to be completed within two weeks or

500 miles (800 km) after the OIL CHANGE REQUIRED message is

displayed. Your oil change service interval can be up to one year or

10,000 miles (16,000 km). Reset your Intelligent Oil Life Monitor™ after

each engine oil and filter change; refer to the Instrument Cluster

chapter.

If your message center is prematurely reset or becomes inoperative, you

should perform the oil change interval at six months or 5,000 miles

(8,000 km) from your last oil change.
