PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Airbags
WARNINGS Do not modify the front of your vehicle in any way. This could adversely affect deployment of the airbags. Original text according to ECE R94.01: Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in front of it! Wear a seat belt and keep sufficient distance between yourself and the steering wheel. Only when you use the seat belt properly, can it hold you in a position that allows the airbag to achieve its optimum effect. See Sitting in the correct position (page 121). Have repairs to the steering wheel, steering column, seats, airbags and seat belts carried out by a properly trained technician. Keep the areas in front of the airbags free from obstruction. Do not affix anything to or over the airbag covers. Do not poke sharp objects into areas where airbags are fitted. This could damage and adversely affect deployment of the airbags. Use seat covers designed for seats with side airbags. Have these fitted by a properly trained technician. Note: You will hear a loud bang and see a cloud of harmless powdery residue if an airbag deploys. This is normal. Note: Only wipe airbag covers with a damp cloth. Driver and front passenger airbags

E74302
The driver and front passenger airbags will deploy during significant frontal collisions or collisions that are up to 30 degrees from the left or the right. The airbags will inflate within a few thousandths of a second and deflate on contact with the occupants, thus cushioning forward body movement. During minor frontal collisions, overturns, rear collisions and side collisions, the driver and front passenger airbags will not deploy. Driver knee airbag CAUTION Do not attempt to open the driver knee airbag cover. The driver knee airbag will deploy during frontal collisions or collisions that are up to 30 degrees from the left or the right. The airbag will inflate within a few thousandths of a second and deflate on contact with the occupants, thus providing a cushion between the drivers knees and the steering column. During overturns, rear collisions and side collisions, the knee airbag will not deploy. For item location: See Quick start (page 11).

29

Occupant protection
Note: The knee airbag has a lower deployment threshold than the front airbags. During a minor collision, it is possible that only the knee airbag deploys. Side airbags Curtain airbags are fitted inside the trim panels over the front and rear side windows. Moulded badges in the B-pillar trim panels indicate that curtain airbags are fitted to your vehicle. The curtain airbags will deploy during significant lateral collisions. The airbag will inflate within a few thousandths of a second and deflate on contact with the occupants, thus providing protection for the head. During minor lateral collisions, front collisions, rear collisions, or overturns the curtain airbags will not deploy.

Seat belts
WARNINGS Wear a seat belt and keep sufficient distance between yourself and the steering wheel. Only when you use the seat belt properly, can it hold you in a position to achieve its optimum effect. See Sitting in the correct position (page 121). Never use a seat belt for more than one person. Use the correct buckle for each seat belt. Do not use a seat belt that is slack or twisted. Do not wear thick clothing. The seat belt must fit tightly around your body to achieve its optimum effect. Position the shoulder strap of the seat belt over the centre of your shoulder and position the lap strap tightly across your hips.

Alarm system
Your vehicle may be equipped with one of the following alarm systems: Perimeter alarm. Perimeter alarm with interior sensors. Category one alarm with interior sensors and battery back-up sounder. Category one alarm with interior sensors, battery back-up sounder and tilt sensors. WARNING The sensors must not be covered up. Do not activate the alarm with full guard if any persons, animals or other moving objects are inside the vehicle. The sensors act as a deterrent against unauthorised intrusion by sensing any movement within the vehicle. Battery back-up sounder The battery back-up sounder is an extra alarm system which will sound a siren when the alarm is triggered. It is armed directly when you lock the vehicle. The sounder has its own battery and will sound an alarm siren even if someone disconnects the vehicle battery or the battery back-up sounder itself. Tilt sensors The tilt sensors detect if someone attempts to steal a wheel or tow the vehicle away by sensing changes in the inclination of the vehicle. Note: When travelling on a ferry with the alarm armed, deactivate the tilt sensors by selecting reduced guard. This will prevent the alarm from being triggered by the movement.

DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS (DRL)

The lamps will illuminate when the ignition is on.

CAUTIONS In cold and severe weather conditions the system may not function. A manual override may be necessary in these cases. Reflective road signs may be detected as oncoming traffic and the headlamps may be switched to dipped beam. If the lights of oncoming vehicles are hidden by obstacles (for example guard rails) the system may not deactivate the main beam. Always fit Ford Original Parts when replacing headlamp bulbs. Other bulbs may reduce system performance. Check and replace wiper blades regularly to ensure the camera sensor has a clear view through the windscreen. Replacement wiper blades must be the correct length. Note: Keep the windscreen free from obstructions such as bird droppings, insects and snow or ice.

Lighting
The system will automatically switch on main beam if it is dark enough and no other traffic is present. If it detects an approaching vehicles headlamps or tail lamps, or street lighting ahead the system will switch off main beam before it can distract other road users. Dipped beams will remain on. A camera sensor is centrally mounted behind the windscreen of the vehicle, and monitors conditions continuously to decide when to switch the main beam off and on. Once the system is active the main beam will switch on if: It is dark enough to require the use of main beams and there is no traffic or street lighting ahead and vehicle speed is greater than 40 km/h (25 mph). The main beam will switch off if: The ambient light is high enough that main beam is not required. An approaching vehicle's headlamps or tail lamps are detected. Street lighting is detected. Vehicle speed falls below 25 km/h (16 mph). The camera sensor is too hot or becomes blocked.

E70719

Turn the switch to the autolamps position. Note: The system may take a short time to initialise after first switching the ignition on, especially in very dark conditions. The main beam will not automatically switch on during this period.

Setting the system sensitivity

The system has three sensitivity levels which can be accessed via the information display. See Information displays (page 84). The sensitivity determines the speed at which the main beam will be restored after detected traffic leaves the field of view.

Using the system

BLIND SPOT MONITOR

Blind spot information system (BLIS)
WARNINGS The system is not designed to prevent contact with other vehicles or objects. The system only provides a warning to assist you in detecting vehicles in the blind spot zones. The system will not detect obstacles, pedestrians, motorcyclists or cyclists. Do not use the system as a replacement for using the side and rear view mirrors, and looking over your shoulder before changing lanes. The system is not a replacement for careful driving and is only to be used as an aid. The system is a convenience feature that aids the driver in detecting vehicles that may have entered the blind spot zone (A). The detection area is on both sides of the vehicle extending rearwards from the exterior mirrors to approximately 3 metres (10 feet) beyond the bumper. The system will alert you if certain vehicles enter the blind spot zone whilst driving.

The system displays a yellow indicator located in the exterior mirrors.

E124736

Note: Both indicators will illuminate briefly when you switch the ignition on to confirm that the system is operational. Note: On vehicles with automatic transmission, the system is active only in S, D and N. The system is only active when you exceed 10 km/h (6 mph). The system is temporarily deactivated when you select reverse gear.

75

Windows and mirrors

System detection and alerts
The system will trigger the alert for vehicles that enter the blind spot zone from the rear or merge from the side. Vehicles that you pass, or vehicles that enter the blind spot zone from the front, will only trigger the alert after the vehicle has remained in the blind spot zone for a short period of time. Note: Vehicles that pass through the blind zone quickly (typically less than 2 seconds) will not trigger the alert. The system consists of two radar sensors each located behind the rear wheels hidden behind the bumpers. CAUTIONS Do not place items such as bumper stickers in this area. Repairs to these areas using body filler will affect the performance of the system. Instances which may cause non-detection: Debris build up on the rear bumper panels in the area of the sensors. Certain manoeuvring of vehicles entering and exiting the blind zone. Vehicles passing through the blind zone at high speed. Severe weather conditions. Several vehicles passing through the blind zone following each other closely. False alerts Note: False alerts are temporary and will self correct. There may be certain instances when the system will alert with no vehicle present in the blind zone. Circumstances where false alerts may occur: Road guardrails. Motorway concrete walls. Construction areas. Sharp turns around a building. Bushes and trees. Cyclists and motorcyclists. Coming to a stop with a vehicle directly behind but very close.

Turning the system on and off

E124741

Detection limitations There may be certain instances where vehicles entering and exiting the blind spot zones may not be detected.

Note: The on or off position will remain until manually changed. You can turn the system on and off using the information display. See Information displays (page 84). When you turn the system off no further alerts will be received. The BLIS warning indicator will illuminate. See Warning lamps and indicators (page 80).

Detection errors
Note: The alert indicator in the mirror will not illuminate. If the system senses a fault on either sensor, the system warning symbol will illuminate and remain on. The information display will confirm the fault and indicate whether the left or right side is affected. Blocked sensor WARNING Prior to the system recognizing a blocked condition and issuing a warning, the number of missed objects will increase. CAUTION The sensors may not detect vehicles in heavy rain or other conditions that cause disruptive reflections. Note: Keep the rear bumper area surrounding the sensors free from dirt, ice and snow. If a sensor becomes blocked the system performance may degrade. A blocked sensor message may be displayed. The system will automatically return to normal operation once two other vehicles have been detected on both sides. Trailer towing false alerts CAUTION Vehicles fitted with a trailer tow module not approved by us may not correctly be detected. Switch the system off to avoid false alerts. See Information displays (page 84). If the vehicle is fitted with a trailer tow module approved by us, the system will detect a connected trailer and deactivate. A confirmation message will be shown in the information display. See Information messages (page 97). The BLIS warning indicator will illuminate. See Warning lamps and indicators (page 80).

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Outside air
Keep the air intakes forward of the windscreen free from obstruction (snow, leaves etc.) to allow the climate control system to function effectively. Warming the interior Direct the air towards your feet. In cold or humid weather conditions, direct some of the air towards the windscreen and the door windows. Cooling the interior Direct the air towards your face.

Recirculated air
CAUTION Prolonged use of recirculated air may cause the windows to mist up. If the windows mist up, follow the settings for defrosting and demisting the windscreen. The air currently in the passenger compartment will be recirculated. Outside air will not enter the vehicle.

AIR VENTS
Front air vents

Heating
Heating performance depends on the temperature of the engine coolant.

E71942

Rear air vents

Air conditioning
Note: The air conditioning operates only when the temperature is above 4C (39F). Note: If you use the air conditioning, the fuel consumption of your vehicle will be higher. Air is directed through the evaporator where it is cooled. Humidity is extracted from the air to help keep the windows free of mist. The resulting condensation is directed to the outside of the vehicle and it is therefore normal if you see a small pool of water under your vehicle.

HEATED WINDOWS AND MIRRORS
Heated windows
Use the heated windows to defrost or demist the windscreen or rear window. Note: The heated windows operate only when the engine is running. Heated windscreen Used properly, the parking heater provides the following benefits: It preheats the interior of the vehicle. It keeps the windows clear of ice in the event of frost and prevents condensation. It avoids cold starts and allows the engine to reach operating temperature sooner.

E72506

Heated rear window

Note: The parking heater will only operate if there is at least 7.5 litres (1.6 gallons) of fuel in the fuel tank and the ambient temperature is below 15C (59F). The heater will not operate if the battery is low. Note: The heating depends on the outside air temperature. Note: When the parking heater is activated, exhaust fumes may come from under the sides of the vehicle. This is normal. Note: On vehicles with a manual heating, ventilation and air conditioning system, the heating of the vehicle interior is dependent on the temperature, air distribution and blower control settings. To prevent the battery from discharging: Once the parking heater has performed one heating cycle, the next programmed heating cycle will only be carried out if you have started the vehicles engine in between. After a heating cycle, drive the vehicle for at least the period of the heating cycle.

E72507

Heated exterior mirrors

Electric exterior mirrors are fitted with a heating element that will defrost or demist the mirror glass. They will switch on automatically when you switch the heated rear window on.

AUXILIARY HEATER
Parking heater
WARNING The parking heater must not be operated at filling stations, near sources of combustible vapours or dust or in enclosed spaces. The parking heater operates independently of the vehicle heater by heating the engines coolant circuit. It is fed from the vehicle fuel tank. You can also use it while the vehicle is in motion to help the vehicle heater warm up the interior more quickly.

Programming the parking heater Note: The programmed time is the time at which you wish the vehicle to be warm and ready to drive, not the time at which the heater switches on.

All vehicles If the engine does not start, repeat the Cold or hot engine procedure.

Cold or hot engine

All vehicles CAUTION When the temperature is below -20C (-4F), switch the ignition on for at least one second before starting the engine. This will make sure that the maximum fuel pressure is established for starting the engine. Vehicles with manual transmission Note: Do not touch the accelerator pedal. 1. Fully depress the clutch pedal. 2. Start the engine. 3. If the engine does not start, fully depress the brake and clutch pedals. Vehicles with automatic transmission Note: Do not touch the accelerator pedal. 1. Select park or neutral. 2. Fully depress the brake pedal. 3. Start the engine. All vehicles If the engine does not start within 15 seconds, wait for a short period and try again. If the engine does not start after three attempts, wait 10 seconds and follow the Flooded engine procedure.

Engine idle speed after starting

The speed at which the engine idles immediately after starting will vary depending on the engine temperature. If the engine is cold then the idle speed will automatically be increased in order to heat the catalytic converter as quickly as possible. This ensures that vehicle emissions are kept to an absolute minimum. The idle speed will slowly decrease to the normal level as the catalytic converter warms up.

136

Starting the engine

STARTING A PETROL ENGINE - E85
For general information on starting a petrol engine. See Starting a petrol engine (page 136). During starting, the fuel injectors are turned off as long as the accelerator pedal is depressed. This can be used to drain excessive fuel from the intake manifold after several unsuccessful starting attempts. If the battery has been disconnected or after the fuel type has been changed, the idle speed may be irregular. This will improve after 10 to 30 seconds.

Starting at low ambient temperatures

When the temperature is lower than -10C (14F) and the vehicle is filled with E85, an engine block heater should be used to facilitate starting. See Engine heater (page 138). Failure to do this will result in a non start. If the temperature is expected to remain below -10C (14F), it is recommended that you increase the proportion of petrol in the tank by topping up with 95 octane unleaded petrol if the tank is not already full. About 10 litres (2.2 gallons) of petrol will reduce the proportion of E85 in a full tank from 85% to 70% and will considerably improve cold start capability. If, at very low temperatures, the tank is filled with only E85 and there is no way to use an engine block heater, you may experience difficulties starting the engine. If the engine fails to start, proceed as follows: 1. Fully depress the accelerator pedal. 2. Turn the ignition key to position III. CAUTION Release the ignition key as soon as the engine has started. 3. Gradually release the accelerator pedal after 5 seconds of engine cranking or as the engine speed rises. If the engine fails to start, repeat steps 1, 2 and 3, or connect an engine block heater for two hours before attempting another start.

STARTING A DIESEL ENGINE

Cold or hot engine
All vehicles Note: When the temperature is below -15C (5F), you may need to crank the engine for up to 25 seconds. If you consistently operate the vehicle in such temperatures, we recommend that you have an engine block heater fitted. Note: Continue cranking the engine until it starts. Note: You can only operate the starter for a maximum of 30 seconds at a time. Switch the ignition on and wait until the glow plug indicator goes off. Vehicles with manual transmission Note: Do not touch the accelerator pedal. 1. Fully depress the clutch pedal. 2. Start the engine. 3. If the engine does not start, fully depress the brake and clutch pedals. Vehicles with automatic transmission 1. Select park or neutral. 2. Fully depress the brake pedal.

137

Starting the engine

3. Start the engine. If you drive only short distances or your journeys contain frequent stopping and starting, where there is increased acceleration and deceleration, occasional trips with the following conditions will assist the regeneration process: Drive your vehicle at a constant speed, preferably on a main road or motorway, for up to 20 minutes. Avoid prolonged idling and always observe speed limits and road conditions. Do not switch off the ignition. Use a lower gear than normal to maintain a higher engine speed during this journey, where appropriate.

DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)

The DPF forms part of the emissions reduction systems fitted to your vehicle. It filters harmful diesel particulates (soot) from the exhaust gas.

Regeneration
WARNING Do not park or idle your vehicle over dry leaves, dry grass or other combustible materials. The DPF regeneration process creates very high exhaust gas temperatures and the exhaust will radiate a considerable amount of heat during and after DPF regeneration, and after you have switched the engine off. This is a potential fire hazard. CAUTION Avoid running out of fuel.

SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE

Vehicles with a turbocharger
CAUTION Do not switch the engine off when it is running at high speed. If you do, the turbocharger will continue running after the engine oil pressure has dropped to zero. This will lead to premature turbocharger bearing wear. Release the accelerator pedal. Wait until the engine has reached idle speed and then switch it off.

Note: After you have switched your engine off the fans may continue to run for a short period of time. Unlike a normal filter which requires periodic replacement, the DPF has been designed to regenerate, or clean itself to maintain operating efficiency. The regeneration process takes place automatically. However, some driving conditions mean that you may need to support the regeneration process.

ENGINE HEATER
CAUTION Make sure you disconnect the power cable from the engine heater connector before driving away.

Start-stop
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
CAUTION For vehicles with Start-stop the battery requirement is different. It must be replaced by one of exactly the same specification as the original. The system reduces fuel consumption and CO2 emissions by shutting down the engine when the vehicle is idling, for example at traffic lights. The engine will automatically restart when the driver presses the clutch pedal or when required by a vehicle system, for example to recharge the battery. To obtain maximum benefit from the system, move the gear lever to the neutral position and release the clutch pedal during any stop of longer than 2 seconds. Note: The system is on by default. To switch the system off, press the switch in the instrument panel. The system will only be de-activated for the current ignition cycle. To turn it on, press the switch again. For item location. See Quick start (page 11). Note: The Start-stop indicator will illuminate green when the engine shuts down. See Warning lamps and indicators (page 80). Note: The Start-stop indicator will flash amber, requiring you to select neutral or depress the clutch pedal. In conjunction a message will be shown in the display. Note: If the system detects a malfunction, it is deactivated. Have the system checked by a properly trained technician. Note: If you have switched the system off, the switch will be illuminated. Note: If you stall the engine, and then depress the clutch pedal within a couple of seconds, the system will automatically restart the engine.

USING START-STOP
WARNINGS The engine may restart automatically if required by the system. See Principle of operation (page 140). Switch the ignition off before opening the bonnet or carrying out any maintenance. Always switch the ignition off before leaving your vehicle, as the system may have shut down the engine but the ignition will still be live. Note: The system only operates when the engine is warm and the outside temperature is between 0C (32F) and 30C (86F).

To stop the engine

Note: The vehicle must be stationary. Note: If the system does not shut down the engine the condition will be shown in the information display. See Information messages (page 97). 1. Stop the vehicle. 2. Move the gear lever to the neutral position. 3. Release the clutch pedal. 4. Release the accelerator pedal. The system may not shut down the engine under certain conditions, for example: To maintain the interior climate. Low battery voltage.

Note: The gear lever must be in the neutral position. Depress the clutch pedal. The system may automatically restart the engine under certain conditions, for example: Low battery voltage. To maintain the interior climate.

141

Eco mode
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The system assists the driver to drive more efficiently by constantly monitoring characteristics of gear changing, anticipation of traffic conditions and speeds on motorways and open roads. Note: These efficiency values do not result in a defined fuel consumption figure. It might vary as it is not only related to these driving disciplines but also influenced by many other factors such as short journeys and cold starts. Note: Frequent short journeys, where the engine does not fully warm up, will also increase fuel consumption. The value of these characteristics is represented by petals shown in the display, with five petals being the most efficient. The more efficiently you drive, the better the rating, and the better your overall fuel consumption. Anticipation Adjusting your vehicle speed and the distance to other vehicles without the need for heavy braking or acceleration will improve fuel consumption. Efficient speed Higher speeds use more fuel. Reducing your cruising speed on open roads will improve fuel consumption.

Fuel and refuelling

FUEL QUALITY - PETROL
CAUTION Do not use leaded petrol or petrol with additives containing other metallic compounds (e.g. manganese-based). They could damage the emission system. Note: We recommend that you use only high quality fuel without additives or other engine treatments. Use minimum 95 octane unleaded petrol that meets the specification defined by EN 228, or equivalent. Note: Your vehicle will operate well on commercial quality 95 octane unleaded petrol, but only high quality E85 offers the same protection and performance. Use minimum 95 octane unleaded petrol that meets the specification defined by EN 228, or equivalent. You can also use a mixture of unleaded petrol and E85.

Long-term storage
Due to small amounts of corrosive impurities that may be found in the E85, it is recommended that you fill the tank with only 95 octane unleaded petrol prior to long-term storage of your vehicle.

FUEL QUALITY - E85

WARNINGS Do not modify the fuel system configuration or the components in the system. Do not replace the fuel system or the components with parts not specially designed to be used with E85. CAUTIONS Do not use leaded petrol or petrol with additives containing other metallic compounds (e.g. manganese-based). They could damage the emission system. Do not use methanol instead of E85.

FUEL QUALITY - DIESEL

WARNING Do not mix diesel with oil, petrol or other liquids. This could cause a chemical reaction. CAUTIONS Do not add kerosene, paraffin or petrol to diesel. This could cause damage to the fuel system. Use diesel that meets the specification defined by EN 590, or the relevant national specification. Note: We recommend that you use only high quality fuel. Note: The use of additives or other engine treatments not approved by Ford is not recommended. Note: We do not recommend the prolonged use of additives intended to prevent fuel waxing.

Note: We recommend that you use only high quality fuel without additives or other engine treatments. Note: When using E85, you may experience a higher fuel consumption.

Fuel and refuelling

Long-term storage
Most diesel fuels contain bio-diesel, it is recommended to fill the tank with purely mineral diesel (where available) or add an anti-oxidant prior to long-term storage of your vehicle exceeding two months. Your dealer can help you with a suitable anti-oxidant. WARNINGS Do not use any kind of flames or heat near the fuel system. The fuel system is under pressure. There is a risk of injury if the fuel system is leaking. CAUTION If you use a high pressure spray to wash your vehicle, only spray the fuel filler flap briefly from a distance not less than 20 centimetres (8 inches). Note: Central locking also locks and unlocks the fuel filler flap. See Locking and unlocking (page 37).

CATALYTIC CONVERTER
WARNING Do not park or idle your vehicle over dry leaves, dry grass or other combustible materials. The exhaust will radiate a considerable amount of heat during use, and after you have switched the engine off. This is a potential fire hazard.

Driving with a catalytic converter

CAUTIONS Avoid running out of fuel. Do not crank the engine for long periods. Do not run the engine when a spark plug lead is disconnected. Do not push-start or tow-start your vehicle. Use booster cables. See Using booster cables (page 228). Do not switch the ignition off when driving.
E86613

Press the flap to open it. Open the flap fully until it engages. When you insert the fuel nozzle, a spring loaded inhibitor will open if the correct size nozzle is detected. This will prevent filling up with the wrong fuel. WARNING Stop refuelling after the fuel nozzle stops the second time. Additional fuel will fill the expansion space in the fuel tank which could lead to fuel overflowing. Fuel spillage could be hazardous to other road users.

FUEL FILLER FLAP

WARNINGS Take care when refuelling to avoid spilling any residual fuel from the fuel nozzle.

A B

The ESP supports stability when the vehicle starts to slide away from your intended path. This is performed by braking individual wheels and reducing engine torque as needed. The system also provides an enhanced traction control function by reducing engine torque if the wheels spin when you accelerate. This improves your ability to pull away on slippery roads or loose surfaces, and improves comfort by limiting wheel spin in hairpin bends.

Hill start assist

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The system makes it easier to pull away when the vehicle is on a slope without the need to use the parking brake. When the system is active, the vehicle will remain stationary on the slope for a short time after you release the brake pedal. During this time, you have time to move your foot from the brake to the accelerator pedal and pull away. The brakes are released automatically once the engine has developed sufficient drive to prevent the vehicle from rolling down the slope. This is an advantage when pulling away on a slope, for example from a car park ramp, traffic lights or when reversing uphill into a parking space. WARNING The system does not replace the parking brake. When you leave the vehicle, always apply the parking brake and select first or reverse gear.

Active suspension
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The active suspension provides improved handling, comfort and stability by continuously adjusting the damper properties to the current road and driving conditions. This system in conjunction with the ABS system offers the benefit of potentially shorter stopping distances on rough road surfaces. Depending on your preferences and driving style, you can choose between three different settings:

System malfunction
The active suspension system will switch off automatically if it malfunctions. The suspension will be set to a fail-safe condition that will enable you to continue driving but you will not be able to change the suspension setting. Have this checked as soon as possible.

Comfort
This provides a softer driving feel.

Normal
Normal setting.

Sport
This provides a harder, sportier ride.

USING ACTIVE SUSPENSION

Selecting a setting
Note: After you select a setting, you may not immediately notice a difference in the vehicle's handling. The effect of the continuously controlled damping depends on the road surface and driving conditions.

E70475
You can change the setting while driving.

159

Parking aid
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNING The parking aid does not relieve you of your responsibility to drive with due care and attention. CAUTIONS Vehicles fitted with a trailer tow module not approved by us may not correctly detect obstacles. The sensors may not detect objects in heavy rain or other conditions that cause disruptive reflections. The sensors may not detect objects with surfaces that absorb ultrasonic waves. The parking aid does not detect obstacles moving away from the vehicle. They will only be detected shortly after they start to move towards the vehicle again. Take particular care when reversing with a tow ball arm or rear fitted accessories e.g. a bicycle carrier, as the rear parking aid will only indicate the distance from the bumper to the obstacle. If you use a high pressure spray to wash your vehicle, only spray the sensors briefly from a distance not less than 20 centimetres (8 inches). Note: On vehicles fitted with a tow ball arm, the parking aid is deactivated automatically when any trailer lamps (or lighting boards) are connected to the 13-pin socket via a trailer tow module we have approved. Note: Keep the sensors free from dirt, ice and snow. Do not clean with sharp objects. Note: The parking aid may emit false tones if it detects a signal using the same frequency as the sensors or if the vehicle is fully laden. Note: The outer sensors may detect the side walls of a garage. If the distance between the outer sensor and the side wall remains constant for three seconds, the tone will switch off. As you continue, the inner sensors will detect rearward objects.

USING THE PARKING AID

Switching the parking aid on and off
Note: The parking aid switches off automatically when you start the engine or when you exceed 16 km/h (10 mph). Note: The front and rear sensors are always activated or deactivated together. The parking aid is per default off. To switch the parking aid on, press the switch in the instrument panel or select reverse gear. The light in the switch illuminates when the parking aid is activated. To turn it off, press the switch again.

Parking aid
Note: If a high pitch warning tone sounds for three seconds and the light in the switch is flashing, it indicates a malfunction. The system will be disabled. Have the system checked by properly trained technicians. You will hear an intermittent tone at a distance of up to approximately 150 centimetres (59 inches) between the obstacle and rear bumper, 80 centimetres (31 inches) between the obstacle and front bumper and 50 centimetres (20 inches) to the side. Decreasing the distance accelerates the intermittent tone. A continuous tone will start at a distance of less than 30 centimetres (12 inches). You will hear an alternating tone from the front and rear if obstacles are closer than 30 centimetres (12 inches) to the front and rear bumpers.

Adaptive cruise control (ACC)

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNINGS The system is not a collision warning or avoidance system. The separate forward alert function provides a collision warning and mitigation feature. See Forward alert function (page 172). You must intervene if the system does not detect a vehicle in front. When driving you are responsible for maintaining the correct distance and speed, even when adaptive cruise control is used. You must always pay attention to the traffic conditions and intervene when adaptive cruise control is not maintaining a suitable speed or suitable distance. The system does not relieve you of your responsibility to drive with due care and attention. The system does not brake for slow or stationary vehicles, pedestrians, objects in the road, oncoming and crossing vehicles. CAUTIONS Only use adaptive cruise control when conditions are favourable, for example on motorways and main roads with steady free flowing traffic. Do not use in poor visibility, specifically fog, heavy rain, spray or snow. Do not use on icy or slippery roads. Do not use the system when entering or leaving a motorway. The radar sensor has a limited field of vision. In some situations it may detect a vehicle other than the one expected or not detect any vehicle at all. Note: When adaptive cruise control is activated, you may hear some unusual sounds during automatic braking. This is normal and caused by the automatic braking system. Note: Keep the front of the vehicle free from dirt, metal badges or objects, including vehicle front protectors and additional lights which may prevent the sensor from operating. The system is designed to help you maintain a gap from the vehicle ahead or a set road speed if there is no slower vehicle ahead. The system is intended to provide enhanced operation of the vehicle when following other vehicles which are in the same lane and travelling in the same direction. The system is based on the use of a radar sensor which projects a beam directly forward of the vehicle. This beam will detect any vehicle ahead within the system's range. The radar sensor is mounted behind the front grille.

167

Adaptive cruise control (ACC)

Detection beam issues Automatic braking with ACC
WARNINGS You must take immediate action once alerted, as the adaptive cruise control braking will not be sufficient to keep a safe distance to the vehicle in front. In some cases there may be no warning or the warning may be delayed. You should always apply the brakes when necessary. When following a vehicle in front of you, adaptive cruise control will not automatically decelerate to a stop. The system will automatically brake for you, if required to maintain the set gap between your vehicle and the one detected in front. This braking capacity is limited to approximately 30% of the total manual braking capacity to ensure smooth and comfortable cruising. If the car needs to brake more heavily than this, and you do not intervene by braking manually, an alarm will sound and a warning symbol will be displayed in the cluster.

E71621

Detection issues can occur: With vehicles that edge into your lane that can only be detected once they have moved fully into your lane (A). Motorcycles may be detected late, or not at all. (B) With vehicles in front when going into and coming out of a bend (C). The detection beam will not follow sharp curves in the road.

USING ACC
The system is operated by adjustment controls mounted on the steering wheel.

In these cases the system may brake late or unexpectedly. You should stay alert and intervene if necessary.

Adaptive cruise control (ACC)

Note: The gap setting is time dependant and therefore the distance will automatically adjust with your speed. For example on a gap setting of four bars, the time gap is 1.8 seconds. This will mean that at a speed of 100 km/h (62 mph), the distance to the vehicle in front will be maintained at 50 metres (164 feet). Note: If the accelerator is depressed for a short period, for example when overtaking, the system is temporarily deactivated and then reactivated when the accelerator pedal is released. A message is displayed in the information display. Note: The gap setting will remain unchanged during ignition cycles.

E133884

The distance between you and the vehicle detected in front is maintained by a variable setting. There are five steps which are represented by horizontal bars displayed in the information display. One bar denotes the smallest gap and five bars indicate the largest gap. These bars are shown empty when in standby mode and filled when in active mode. If no vehicle is detected in front, then only your vehicle is displayed in the information display below the bars. The system will maintain the set speed when conditions permit. The set gap is maintained and displayed. If a vehicle is detected by the sensor, the display will show another vehicle above the horizontal bars:

Vehicles with speed limiter Press switch A to turn the system off. Note: When deactivating the system by pressing switch A, the stored speed is not retained.

E82312
This is a follow mode, and the system will accelerate or decelerate as necessary to maintain the set gap. Press switch E to decrease the gap or switch D to increase the gap. The gap selected will be represented by the number of bars in the display. Note: The recommended gap setting is four to five bars.

Automatic deactivation
Note: If the engine speed drops too low, a message is displayed in the information display instructing you to change down a gear (manual transmission only). If you do not follow this recommendation then the system will go into automatic deactivation mode. Note: The system will not operate if the electronic stability programme (ESP) has been manually switched off. The system is dependent on various other safety systems, for example ABS and ESP. If any of these systems are malfunctioning or reacting to an emergency, the system is automatically deactivated. In the event of automatic deactivation a signal will sound and the message is displayed in the information display See Information messages (page 97). You must then intervene and adapt your driving and speed to vehicles in front. An automatic deactivation can be due to the: vehicle speed falling below 30 km/h (20 mph) wheels losing traction brake temperature is high, for example when driving on mountainous or hilly roads engine speed is too low radar sensor is covered parking brake or electric parking brake (EPB) is applied.

Temporarily deactivating the system

Note: The system is cancelled when the gear lever is moved to a neutral position or if the accelerator pedal or clutch is depressed for a long period of time Press either the brake or switch B to cancel the system. The system will return to standby mode allowing you full manual control of the vehicle. The set speed and gap setting are retained in the memory. To resume adaptive cruise control press switch H. The system will resume with the previously set speed and vehicle gap setting if conditions permit.

Adaptive cruise control (ACC)

FORWARD ALERT FUNCTION
WARNINGS Never wait for a collision warning. When driving you are responsible for maintaining the correct distance and speed, even when the system is used. The system will only react to vehicles in front travelling in the same direction and will not react to slow or stationary vehicles. Never drive in a manner to provoke the system. The system is designed to assist in emergencies only. CAUTIONS Warnings may be triggered late, be absent or triggered unnecessarily due to detection beam issues. See Principle of operation (page 167). The system uses the same radar sensors as adaptive cruise control and therefore has the same limitations. See Principle of operation (page 167). Note: The brake support system only reduces the collision speed if you brake immediately once alerted. Note: If the brake pedal is depressed sufficiently quickly then braking is implemented with full brake function, even if the force on the pedal is light. Note: Brake support prepares the brake system for rapid braking and the brakes are applied gently, which may be noticed as a slight jerk. Note: The collision alerts will only occur if the system is switched on, however the brake support is always on and cannot be turned off. Note: The system may be used with or without the Adaptive cruise control system being activated. The system assists you by warning of the risk of a collision with a vehicle in front. The system alerts you by warning chimes and a visual warning in the information display. See Information messages (page 97). Brake support is activated to enable full braking effectiveness, and reduce the severity of a collision with the vehicle in front.

Switching the system on and off

Note: When the system is switched off, a warning indicator will remain illuminated in the information display. See Warning lamps and indicators (page 80). Note: The system status and settings will remain unchanged during ignition cycles. The system can be switched on and off using the information display. See General information (page 84).

Adjusting the warning sensitivity

You may adjust the system warning sensitivity using the buttons on the steering wheel. See General information (page 84). This controls how early the visual and audible warning is activated.

Driver alert
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNINGS The system does not relieve you of your responsibility to drive with due care and attention. At all times you are responsible for controlling the vehicle, supervising the system and intervening if required. If the sensor becomes blocked the system may not function. Take regular rest breaks as required and do not wait for the system to warn you if you feel tired. Take rest breaks only where it is safe to do so. Certain driving styles and behaviour may result in the system issuing a warning even if you are not feeling tired. CAUTIONS In cold and severe weather conditions the system may not function. Rain, snow, spray and large contrasts in lighting can all influence the sensor. The system will not operate if the sensor cannot track the road lane markings. The system may not operate in areas during roadworks construction. The system may not operate on roads with sharp bends or narrow lanes. Do not carry out windscreen repairs in the immediate area surrounding the sensor. CAUTIONS If your vehicle is fitted with a suspension kit not approved by us, the system may not function correctly. Note: Keep the windscreen free from obstructions such as bird droppings, insects and snow or ice. Note: The system is intended as a driver aid when driving on fast main roads and motorways. Note: The system calculates an alertness level at vehicle speeds above approximately 65 km/h (40 mph). The system automatically monitors your driving behaviour using various inputs including the front camera sensor. If the system detects that you are becoming drowsy or there is a deterioration in your driving, the system will alert you.

USING DRIVER ALERT

Switching the system on and off
Note: The system status will remain unchanged during ignition cycles. Activate the system using the information display. See Information displays (page 84). Once activated the system will calculate your alertness level based upon your driving behaviour in relation to the lane markings, and other factors.

System warnings
Note: The system will not issue warnings below approximately 65 km/h (40 mph).

175

Driver alert
The warning system is in two stages. At first the system issues a temporary warning that a rest should be taken. This message will only appear for a short time. If a rest is not then taken a further warning may be issued which will remain in the information display until cancelled. Press OK on the steering wheel control to remove the warning. The status bar will travel from left to right as the calculated alertness level decreases. As the rest icon is approached the colour turns from green to yellow and then finally red when a rest break must be taken. Green - No rest required. Yellow - First (temporary) warning. Red - Second warning.

System display
When active the system will run automatically in the background and only issue warnings if required. You can view the status at any time using the information display. Select Information then Driver Alert to show the status screen in the information display. The alertness level is shown by six steps as a coloured bar.

Note: The alertness level will be shown in grey if the camera sensor cannot track the road lane markings or if the vehicle speed drops below approximately 65 km/h (40 mph).

Resetting the system

You can reset the system by either: Switching the ignition off and on. Stopping the vehicle and then opening and closing the driver's door.

Lane departure warning

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNINGS The system does not relieve you of your responsibility to drive with due care and attention. At all times you are responsible for controlling the vehicle, supervising the system and intervening if required. If the sensor becomes blocked the system may not function. Lane markings may not always be properly tracked by the sensor. Other structures or objects may sometimes be incorrectly detected as a lane marking, resulting in a false or missed warning. CAUTIONS In cold and severe weather conditions the system may not function. Rain, snow, spray and large contrasts in lighting can all influence the sensor. The system will not operate if the sensor cannot track the road lane markings. The system may not operate in areas during roadworks construction. The system may not operate on roads with sharp bends or narrow lanes. Do not carry out windscreen repairs in the immediate area surrounding the sensor. If your vehicle is fitted with a suspension kit not approved by us, the system may not function correctly. Note: Keep the windscreen free from obstructions such as bird droppings, insects and snow or ice. Note: The system is intended as a driver aid when driving on fast main roads and motorways. Note: The system may not operate during hard braking or acceleration and, when you are intentionally steering the vehicle. Note: The system will operate with a minimum of one tracked lane marking. Note: The system will only operate above vehicle speeds of approximately 65 km/h (40 mph). A sensor is mounted behind the interior rear view mirror. It continuously monitors conditions to alert you of unintentional lane drifting at high speeds. The system will automatically detect and track the lane markings on the road. If it detects that the vehicle is unintentionally drifting towards the lane boundaries then a visual warning will be displayed in the information display. There is also a warning given in the form of a vibration felt through the steering wheel.

USING LANE DEPARTURE WARNING

Switching the system on and off
Note: When the system is switched off, a warning indicator will remain illuminated in the information display. See Warning lamps and indicators (page 80). Note: The system status and settings will remain unchanged during ignition cycles.

177

Lane departure warning

WARNINGS Do not exceed 100 km/h (62 mph). The rear tyre pressures must be increased by 0.2 bar (3 psi) above specification. See Technical specifications (page 240). Do not exceed the maximum gross train weight stated on the vehicle identification plate. See Vehicle identification (page 244). CAUTION Do not exceed the maximum permissible nose weight, i.e. vertical weight on the tow ball, of 90 kilogrammes (198 pounds). Note: Not all vehicles are suitable or approved to have tow bars fitted. Check with your dealer first. Place loads as low and central to the axle(s) of the trailer as possible. If you are towing with an unladen vehicle, the load in the trailer should be placed toward the nose, within the maximum nose load, as this gives the best stability. The stability of the vehicle to trailer combination is very much dependant on the quality of the trailer. In high altitude regions above 1 000 metres (3 281 feet), the stipulated maximum permitted gross train weight must be reduced by 10% for every additional 1 000 metres (3 281 feet). Change down a gear before you reach a steep downhill gradient.

DETACHABLE TOW BALL

WARNINGS When not in use, always transport the tow ball arm securely fastened in the luggage compartment. Take special care when fitting the tow ball arm as the safety of the vehicle and the trailer depends on this. Do not use any tools for mounting or dismounting the tow ball arm.

CLEANING THE EXTERIOR
WARNING If you use a car wash with a waxing cycle, make sure that you remove the wax from the windscreen. CAUTIONS Prior to using a car wash facility check the suitability of it for your vehicle. Some car wash installations use water at high pressure. This could damage certain parts of your vehicle. Remove the aerial before using an automatic car wash. Switch the heater blower off to prevent contamination of the fresh air filter. We recommend that you wash your vehicle with a sponge and lukewarm water containing a car shampoo.

Cleaning the chrome trim

CAUTION Do not use abrasives or chemical solvents. Use soapy water.

Body paintwork preservation

CAUTIONS Do not polish your vehicle in strong sunshine. Do not allow polish to touch plastic surfaces. It could be difficult to remove. Do not apply polish to the windscreen or rear window. This could cause the wipers to become noisy and they may not clear the window properly. We recommend that you wax the paintwork once or twice a year.

CLEANING THE INTERIOR

Seat belts
WARNINGS Do not use abrasives, or chemical solvents to clean them. Do not allow moisture to penetrate the seat belt retractor mechanism. Clean the seat belts with interior cleaner or water applied with a soft sponge. Let the seat belts dry naturally, away from artificial heat.

Cleaning the headlamps

CAUTIONS Do not scrape the headlamp lenses or use abrasives, alcoholic solvents or chemical solvents to clean them. Do not wipe the headlamps when they are dry.

Cleaning the rear window

CAUTION Do not scrape the inside of the rear window or use abrasives or chemical solvents to clean it. Use a clean, lint free cloth or a damp chamois leather to clean the inside of the rear window.

226

Vehicle care
Instrument cluster screens, LCD screens, radio screens
WARNING Do not use abrasives, alcoholic solvents or chemical solvents to clean them.

REPAIRING MINOR PAINT DAMAGE

CAUTION Remove apparently harmless looking substances from the paintwork immediately (e.g. bird droppings, tree resins, insect remains, tar spots, road salt and industrial fall out). You should repair paintwork damage caused by stones from the road or minor scratches as soon as possible. A choice of products is available from your Ford Dealer. Read and follow the manufacturers instructions.

If you change the diameter of the tyres from that fitted at the factory, the speedometer may not display the correct speed. Take the vehicle to your dealer to have the engine management system reprogrammed. A decal with tyre pressure data is located in the drivers door opening at the B-pillar. Check and set the tyre pressure at the ambient temperature in which you are intending to drive the vehicle and when the tyres are cold. WARNINGS Do not drive through an automatic car wash. Do not carry out any tyre repairs on a temporary spare wheel. CAUTION The ground clearance of your vehicle will be reduced. Take care when parking next to a curb. Note: Your vehicle may exhibit some unusual driving characteristics.

Vehicle jack
WARNINGS The vehicle jack supplied with your vehicle should only be used when changing a wheel in emergency situations. Before using the vehicle jack, check that it is not damaged or deformed and that the thread is lubricated and free from foreign matter. Never place anything between the jack and the ground, or the jack and the vehicle. Note: Vehicles with a tyre repair kit are not equipped with a vehicle jack or a wheel brace. It is recommended to use a workshop type hydraulic jack for changing between summer and winter tyres. Note: Use a jack with a minimum lifting capacity of 1.5 tonnes and a lifting plate with a minimum diameter of 80 millimetres (3.1 inches).

Wheels and tyres

WARNING Have the wheel nuts checked for tightness and the tyre pressure checked as soon as possible. Drive with caution and avoid making sudden steering or driving manoeuvres, especially if the vehicle is heavily loaded or you are towing a trailer. The kit will provide you with an emergency temporary repair, enabling you to continue your journey to the next vehicle or tyre dealer, or to drive a maximum distance of 200 kilometres (125 miles). Do not exceed a maximum speed of 80 km/h (50 mph). Keep the kit out of the reach of children. Only use the kit when the ambient temperature is between 30C (-22F) and +70C (+158F).

TYRE REPAIR KIT

Your vehicle may not have a spare tyre. In this case it will have an emergency tyre repair kit that can be used to repair one flat tyre. The tyre repair kit is located in the spare wheel well.

General information
WARNINGS Depending on the type and extent of tyre damage, some tyres can only be partially sealed or not sealed at all. Loss of tyre pressure can affect vehicle handling, leading to loss of vehicle control. Do not use the tyre repair kit if the tyre has already been damaged as a result of being driven under inflated. Do not use the tyre repair kit on run flat tyres. Do not try to seal damage other than that located within the visible tread of the tyre. Do not try to seal damage to the tyres sidewall. The tyre repair kit seals most tyre punctures [with a diameter of up to six millimetres (1/4 inch)] to temporarily restore mobility. Observe the following rules when using the kit:

Using the tyre repair kit

WARNINGS Compressed air can act as an explosive or propellant. Never leave the tyre repair kit unattended while in use. CAUTION Do not keep the compressor operating for more than 10 minutes. Note: Use the tyre repair kit only for the vehicle with which it was supplied. Park your vehicle at the roadside so that you do not obstruct the flow of traffic and so that you are able to use the kit without being in danger. Apply the parking brake, even if you have parked on a level road, to make sure that the vehicle will not move. Do not attempt to remove foreign objects like nails or screws penetrating the tyre.

235

Wheels and tyres

Leave the engine running while the kit is in use, but not if the vehicle is in an enclosed or poorly ventilated area (for example, inside a building). In these circumstances, switch the compressor on with the engine turned off. Replace the sealant bottle with a new one before the expiry date (see top of bottle) is reached. Inform all other users of the vehicle that the tyre has been temporarily sealed with the tyre repair kit and make them aware of the special driving conditions to be observed. CAUTION Screwing the bottle onto the bottle holder will pierce the seal of the bottle. Do not unscrew the bottle from the holder as the sealant will escape.

A K

Inflating the tyre

WARNINGS Check the sidewall of the tyre prior to inflation. If there are any cracks, bumps or similar damage, do not attempt to inflate the tyre. Do not stand directly beside the tyre while the compressor is pumping. Watch the sidewall of the tyre. If any cracks, bumps or similar damage appear, turn off the compressor and let the air out by means of the pressure relief valve B. Do not continue driving with this tyre. The sealant contains natural rubber latex. Avoid contact with skin and clothing. If this happens, rinse the affected areas immediately with plenty of water and contact your doctor. If the tyre inflation pressure does not reach 1.8 bar (26 psi) within seven minutes, the tyre may have suffered excessive damage, making a temporary repair impossible. In this case, do not continue driving with this tyre.

Quickly unscrew the hose C from the tyre valve and replace the protective cap A. Fasten the valve cap again. Leave the sealant bottle K in the bottle holder E. Make sure the kit, the bottle lid and the orange cap are stored safely, but still easily accessible in the vehicle. The kit will be required again when you check the tyre pressure. Immediately drive approximately three kilometres (two miles) so that the sealant can seal the damaged area.

1. Open the lid of the tyre repair kit. 2. Peel off the label I showing the maximum permissible speed of 80 km/h (50 mph) from the casing and attach it to the instrument panel in the drivers field of view. Make sure the label does not obscure anything important. 3. Take the hose C and the power plug with cable G out of the kit. 4. Unscrew the orange cap D and the bottle lid J. 5. Screw the sealant bottle K clockwise into the bottle holder E fully tight. 6. Remove the valve cap from the damaged tyre. 7. Detach the protective cap A from the hose C and screw the hose C firmly onto the valve of the damaged tyre. 8. Make sure that the compressor switch H is in position 0. 9. Insert the power plug G into the cigar lighter socket or auxiliary power socket. See Cigar lighter (page 127). See Auxiliary power sockets (page 128). 10. Start the engine. 11. Move the compressor switch H to position 1. 12. Inflate the tyre for no longer than seven minutes to an inflation pressure of minimum 1.8 bar (26 psi) and a maximum of 3.5 bar (51 psi). Move the compressor switch H to position 0 and check the current tyre pressure with pressure gauge F.

17.

Note: When pumping in the sealant through the tyre valve, the pressure may rise up to 6 bar (87 psi) but will drop again after about 30 seconds. WARNING If you experience heavy vibrations, unsteady steering behaviour or noises while driving, reduce your speed and drive with caution to a place where it is safe for you to stop the vehicle. Recheck the tyre and its pressure. If the tyre pressure is less than 1.3 bar (19 psi) or if there are any cracks, bumps or similar damage visible, do not continue driving with this tyre.

Checking the tyre pressure

1. Stop the vehicle after driving approximately three kilometres (two miles). Check, and where necessary, adjust the pressure of the damaged tyre. 2. Attach the kit and read the tyre pressure from the pressure gauge F.

237

Wheels and tyres

3. If the pressure of the sealant-filled tyre is 1.3 bar (19 psi) or more, adjust it to the specified pressure. See Technical specifications (page 240). 4. Follow the inflation procedure once again to top up the tyre. 5. Check the tyre pressure again from the pressure gauge F. If the tyre pressure is too high, deflate the tyre to the specified pressure using the pressure relief valve B. 6. Once you have inflated the tyre to its correct tyre pressure, move the compressor switch H to position 0, remove the power plug G from the socket, unscrew the hose C, fasten the valve cap and replace the protective cap A. 7. Leave the sealant bottle K in the bottle holder E and store the kit away safely in its original location. 8. Drive to the nearest tyre specialist to get the damaged tyre replaced. Before the tyre is removed from the rim, inform your tyre dealer that the tyre contains sealant. Renew the kit as soon as possible after it has been used once. Note: Remember that emergency roadside tyre repair kits only provide temporary mobility. Regulations concerning tyre repair after usage of tyre repair kit may differ from country to country. You should consult a tyre specialist for advice. WARNING Before driving, make sure the tyre is adjusted to the recommended inflation pressure. See Technical specifications (page 240). Monitor the tyre pressure until the sealed tyre is replaced. Empty sealant bottles can be disposed of together with normal household waste. Return remains of sealant to your dealer or dispose of it in compliance with local waste disposal regulations.

TYRE CARE

E70415

To make sure the front and rear tyres of your vehicle wear evenly and last longer, we recommend that you swap the tyres from front to rear and vice versa at regular intervals of between 5 000 and 10 000 km (3 000 and 6 000 miles). CAUTION Do not scrub the sidewalls of the tyres when you are parking. If you have to mount a kerb, do so slowly and approach it with the wheels at right-angles to the kerb. Examine the tyres regularly for cuts, foreign objects and uneven wear of the tread. Uneven wear could mean that the wheel alignment is outside specification. Check the tyre pressures (including the spare) when cold, every two weeks.

238

Wheels and tyres

USING WINTER TYRES
CAUTION Make sure that you use the correct wheel nuts for the type of wheel the winter tyres are fitted to. If winter tyres are used, make sure that the tyre pressures are correct. See Technical specifications (page 240).

TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM

WARNINGS The system does not relieve you of your responsibility to regularly check the tyre pressures. The system will only provide a low tyre pressure warning. It will not inflate the tyres. The system may take longer to detect low pressure in the tyres if you have fitted snow chains. Do not drive on significantly under-inflated tyres. This may cause the tyres to overheat and fail. Under-inflation reduces fuel efficiency, tyre tread life and may also affect your ability to drive the vehicle safely. CAUTIONS Do not bend or damage the valves when you are inflating the tyres. Have tyres installed by properly trained technicians. Note: After changing the tyres or sensors the system will take a few minutes to reset. During this period the system is operational but a warning lamp may appear. The system monitors the pressure in the tyres using sensors located on the wheels and a receiver located in your vehicle. When the system detects low pressure in the tyres, a warning message is displayed in the information display. See Information messages (page 97).

USING SNOW CHAINS

WARNINGS Do not exceed 50 km/h (30 mph). Do not use snow chains on snow-free roads. Only fit snow chains to specified tyres. See Technical specifications (page 240). CAUTION If your vehicle is fitted with wheel trims, remove them before fitting snow chains. Note: The ABS will continue to operate normally. Only use small link snow chains. Only use snow chains on the front wheels.

Vehicles with stability control (ESP)

Vehicles with stability control (ESP) may exhibit some unusual driving characteristics which can be avoided by switching the system off. See Using stability control (page 154).

239

Wheels and tyres

If a low pressure warning message is displayed in the information display, check the tyre pressures as soon as possible and inflate them to the recommended pressure. See Technical specifications (page 240). If this happens frequently, have the cause determined and rectified as soon as possible. 4. Highlight the desired setting and press the OK button to confirm the setting. 5. Press the left arrow button to exit the menu. Hold the left arrow button pressed to return to the trip computer display.

Setting the vehicle load

Note: Type 3 instrument clusters have a slightly different menu structure. Select Settings first to access Setup. Correct tyre pressure settings depend on vehicle load. See Technical specifications (page 240). The system can only detect low pressure if you have entered the current vehicle load. 1. Press the right arrow button on the steering wheel to enter the main menu. Highlight Setup with the up and down buttons and press the right arrow button. Highlight Tyre Pressures with the up and down buttons and press the right arrow button. Highlight the desired setting and press the OK button to confirm the setting. Press the left arrow button to exit the menu. Hold the left arrow button pressed to return to the trip computer display.

Checking the tyre pressures

Note: If the tyre pressures are greater than or equal to 3.3 bar (48 lbf/in), you will see the + symbol below the pressure value. The system only measures pressure up to 3.3 bar (48 lbf/in). The + symbol indicates that the tyre pressures may be higher. Note: Type 3 instrument clusters have a slightly different menu structure. Select Settings first to access Information. 1. Press the right arrow button on the steering wheel to enter the main menu. 2. Highlight Information with the up and down buttons and press the right arrow button. 3.

GENERAL INFORMATION
CAUTION Using the system with the engine off will drain the battery. This section describes the functions and features of the Bluetooth mobile phone hands free system. The Bluetooth mobile phone part of the system provides interaction with the audio or navigation system and your mobile phone. It allows you to use the audio or navigation system to make and receive calls without having to hold your mobile phone.

Phonebook categories
Depending on your phonebook entry, different categories can be displayed in the audio unit. For example: M O H F Mobile Office Home Fax

Note: Entries may be displayed without a category attachment. The category can also be indicated as an icon: Phone
E87990

Compatibility of phones
CAUTION As no common agreement exists, mobile phone manufacturers are able to implement a variety of profiles in their Bluetooth devices. Because of this, an incompatibility can occur between the phone and hands-free system, which in some cases may significantly degrade the system performance. To avoid this situation, only recommended phones should be used. Please visit the website www.fordmobile-connectivity.com for full details.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
CAUTION Using the system with the engine off will drain the battery. Voice recognition enables operation of the system without the need to divert your attention from the road ahead in order to change settings, or receive feedback from the system. Whenever you issue one of the defined commands with the system active, the voice recognition system converts your command into a control signal for the system. Your inputs take the form of dialogues or commands. You are guided through these dialogues by announcements or questions. Please familiarise yourself with the functions of the system before using voice recognition. Do not try to give any commands until the beep tone has been heard. The voice control system will repeat each spoken command back to you. If you are not sure how to continue say "HELP" for assistance or "CANCEL" if you do not wish to continue. The "HELP" function provides only a subset of the available voice commands. Detailed explanations of all possible voice commands can be found on the following pages.

Voice commands
All voice commands should be given using a natural speaking voice, as if speaking to a passenger or on the phone. Your voice level should be dependant on the surrounding noise level inside or outside the vehicle but do not shout.

USING VOICE CONTROL

System operation
The order and content of the voice controls are given in the following lists. The tables show the sequence of user voice commands and system responses for each available function. <> indicates a number or stored name tag to be inserted by the user.

CAUTIONS Take care when handling external devices with exposed electrical connectors (such as the USB plug). Always replace the protective cap/shield when possible. There may be a risk of electrostatic discharge causing damage to the device. Do not touch or handle the USB socket in the vehicle. Cover the socket when not in use. Only use USB Mass-Storage device compliant devices. Always switch your audio unit to a different source (for example the radio) before unplugging the USB device. Do not install or connect USB hubs or splitters. Note: The system is only designed to recognize and read suitable audio files from a USB device that conforms to the USB Mass-Storage device class or an iPod. Not all available USB devices can be guaranteed to function with the system. Note: It is possible to connect compatible devices with a trailing USB lead as well as those that plug into the vehicle USB socket directly (for example USB memory sticks and pen drives). Note: Some USB devices with a higher power consumption may not be compatible (for example some larger hard drives). Note: Access time to read the files on the external device will vary depending upon factors such as the file structure, size and device content. The system supports a range of external devices, to fully integrate with your audio unit via the USB and auxiliary input sockets. Once connected, control of the external device is possible via the audio unit. A list of typical compatible devices are shown below: USB memory sticks USB portable hard drives Some MP3 players with USB connection iPod media players (refer to www.ford-mobile -connectivity.com for latest compatibility list). The system is USB 2.0 full speed compatible, USB 1.1 host compliant and supports FAT 16/32 file systems.

Information on audio file structures for external devices

USB Create only a single partition on the USB device. If playlists are created, they must contain correct file paths referenced to the USB device. It is recommended to create the playlist after the audio files have been transferred to the USB device. Playlists must be created in .m3u format. Audio files must be in .mp3 format. Do not exceed the following limits: 1000 items per folder (files, folders and playlists) 5000 folders per USB device (including playlists) 8 subfolder levels.

Connectivity
To enable voice control for custom playlists and folders, follow the procedure below: Create folders named with the structure "Ford<*>" where <*> is a number 1-10. For example "Ford3" without an extension. Create playlists named with the structure "Ford<*>.m3u" where <*> is a number 1-10. For example "Ford5.m3u" without any space between "Ford" and the number. Thereafter, custom folders and playlists will be selectable with voice control. See Audio unit commands (page 258). iPod To enable voice control for custom playlists, create playlists named with the structure "Ford<*>" where <*> is a number 1-10. For example "Ford7" without any space between "Ford" and the number. Thereafter, playlists will be selectable with voice control. See Audio unit commands (page 258).

Connection
Plug in the device, and if necessary secure it to prevent movement within the vehicle. Connecting an iPod For optimum convenience and audio quality, we recommend that you purchase a dedicated single connection lead available from your dealer. Alternatively, it is possible to connect your iPod using the standard iPod USB cable and a separate 3.5mm audio jack lead. If using this method preset the iPod volume to maximum and turn off any equalizer settings before making the connections: Connect the headphone output of the iPod to the AUX IN socket. Connect the USB cable from the iPod to the vehicle USB socket.
