1 Ford recommends using Motorcraft (Ford) DOT 4 LV High Performance Brake Fluid or
equivalent meeting WSS-M6C65-A2. Use of any fluid other than the recommended fluid
may cause degraded brake performance and not meet the Ford performance standards.
Keep brake fluid clean and dry. Contamination with dirt, water, petroleum products or
other materials may result in brake system damage and possible failure.
2 Approximate dry fill capacity. Actual amount may vary during fluid changes.
3 Automatic transmissions that require Motorcraft MERCON LV transmission fluid should
only use Motorcraft MERCON LV transmission fluid.
Use of any fluid other than the recommended fluid may cause transmission damage.
Change the automatic transmission fluid and filter at the correct service interval. See
Scheduled Maintenance (page 404).
4 See your authorized dealer for fluid level checking or filling.
5 We have designed your engine to use Motorcraft engine oils or equivalent oil brands that
meet our specifications. Motor oils of the recommended viscosity grade that meet API
SN requirements and displays the API certification mark for gasoline engines are also
acceptable.

could lead to engine damage not covered by your Ford warranty.
7 Do not use API S category oils labeled as SN, SM, SL or lower category unless the label
also displays the API certification. These oils do not meet the requirements of your engine
and emission systems.
