REPAIRING MINOR PAINT

DAMAGE

Your authorized dealer has touch-up paint

to match your vehicle’s color. Take your

color code (printed on a sticker in the

driver’s door jamb) to your authorized

dealer to ensure you get the correct color.

• Remove particles such as bird

droppings, tree sap, insect deposits, tar

spots, road salt and industrial fallout

before repairing paint chips.

• Always read the instructions before

using the products.

CLEANING THE ALLOY

WHEELS (IF EQUIPPED)

Note: Do not apply a cleaning chemical to

warm or hot wheel rims and covers.

Note: Some automatic car washes may

cause damage to the finish on your wheel

rims and covers.

Note: Industrial-strength or heavy-duty

cleaners in combination with brush agitation

to remove brake dust and dirt, could wear

away the clear coat finish over a period time.

Note: Do not use hydrofluoric acid-based

or high caustic-based wheel cleaners, steel

wool, fuels or strong household detergents.

Note: If you intend parking your vehicle for

an extended period after cleaning the

wheels with a wheel cleaner, drive your

vehicle for a few minutes before doing so.

This will reduce the risk of increased

corrosion of the brake discs.

Alloy wheels and wheel covers are coated

with a clear coat paint finish. To maintain

their condition we recommend that you:

• Clean the wheels weekly using

Motorcraft Wheel and Tire Cleaner.

Apply using manufacturer's

instructions.

• Use a sponge to remove heavy

deposits of dirt and brake dust

accumulation.

• Rinse thoroughly with a strong stream

of water when you have completed the

cleaning process.

• To remove tar and grease, use

Motorcraft Bug and Tar Remover.

VEHICLE STORAGE

If you plan on storing your vehicle for an

extended period of time (30 days or more),

read the following maintenance

recommendations to make sure your

vehicle stays in good operating condition.

All motor vehicles and their components

were engineered and tested for reliable,

regular driving. Long term storage under

various conditions may lead to component

degradation or failure unless specific

precautions are taken to preserve the

components.

General

• Store all vehicles in a dry, ventilated

place.

• Protect from sunlight, if possible.

• If vehicles are stored outside, they

require regular maintenance to protect

against rust and damage.

Body

• Wash your vehicle thoroughly to

remove dirt, grease, oil, tar or mud from

exterior surfaces, rear-wheel housing

and underside of front fenders.

• Periodically wash your vehicle stored

in exposed locations.
