WARNINGS

Do not add coolant further than the

MAX mark.

To reduce the risk of personal injury,

make sure the engine is cool before

unscrewing the coolant pressure

relief cap. The cooling system is under

pressure; steam and hot liquid can come

out forcefully when the cap is loosened

slightly.

Note: Do not use stop leak pellets, cooling

system sealants or additives as they can

cause damage to the engine cooling or

heating systems. The vehicle warranty does

not cover this damage.

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 that the

engine coolant has degraded or that you

drain the engine coolant, flush the system

or replace the engine coolant.

• 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 the engine’ s

cooling system. The use of incorrect

coolant may harm engine and cooling

system components and may void the

warranty. Use prediluted engine

coolant meeting the Ford specification.

See Capacities and Specifications

(page 265).

• In case of emergency, you can add a

large amount of water without engine

coolant in order to reach a vehicle

service location. In this instance, you

must have the cooling system 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, for

example corrosion, overheating or

freezing.

• Do not use alcohol, methanol, brine or

any engine coolants mixed with alcohol

or methanol antifreeze. Alcohol and

other liquids can cause engine damage,

for example 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.

Whenever you add coolant, check the

coolant level in the coolant reservoir the

next few times you drive the vehicle. If

necessary, add enough prediluted engine

coolant to bring the coolant level to the

correct level.

Recycled Engine Coolant

We do not recommend the use of recycled

engine coolant since a Ford-approved

recycling process is not yet available.
