Note: During normal vehicle operation, the engine coolant may change

color from orange to pink or light red. As long as the engine coolant is

clear and uncontaminated, this color change does not indicate the engine

coolant has degraded nor does it require the engine coolant to be

drained, the system to be flushed, or the engine coolant to be replaced.

• DO NOT MIX different colors or types of coolant in your vehicle. Make

sure the correct coolant is used. Mixing of engine coolants may harm

your engine’s cooling system. The use of an improper coolant may

harm engine and cooling system components and may void the

warranty.

• In case of emergency, a large amount of water without engine coolant

may be added in order to reach a vehicle service location. In this

instance, the cooling system must be drained, chemically cleaned with

Motorcraft Premium Cooling System Flush, and refilled with engine

coolant as soon as possible. Water alone (without engine coolant) can

cause engine damage from corrosion, overheating or freezing.

• Do not use alcohol, methanol, brine or any engine coolants mixed with

alcohol or methanol antifreeze (coolant). Alcohol and other liquids can

cause engine damage from overheating or freezing.

• Do not add extra inhibitors or additives to the coolant. These can be

harmful and compromise the corrosion protection of the engine

coolant.

Unscrew the cap slowly. Any pressure will escape as you unscrew the

cap.

Add prediluted engine coolant meeting the Ford specification. See

Capacities and Specifications for more information.

Whenever coolant has been added, the coolant level in the coolant

reservoir should be checked the next few times you drive the vehicle. If

necessary, add enough prediluted engine coolant to bring the coolant

level to the proper level.

Recycled Engine Coolant

Ford Motor Company does not recommend the use of recycled engine

coolant since a Ford-approved recycling process is not yet available.

Used engine coolant should be disposed of in an appropriate

manner. Follow your community’s regulations and standards for recycling

and disposing of automotive fluids.
