Checking and Adding Manual Transmission Fluid (If Equipped)

1. Clean the filler plug.

2. Remove the filler plug and inspect the fluid level.

3. Fluid level should be at the bottom of the opening.

4. Add enough fluid through the filler opening so that the fluid level is at
the bottom of the opening.

5. Install and tighten the fill plug securely.

Use only fluid that meets Ford specifications. Refer to the Technical
Specifications
section in the Capacities and Specifications chapter.

BRAKE FLUID CHECK

Fluid levels between the MIN and MAX lines are within the normal
operating range; there is no need to add fluid. If the fluid levels are
outside of the normal operating range, the performance of the system
could be compromised; seek service from your authorized dealer
immediately.

POWER STEERING FLUID CHECK

Your vehicle is equipped with an electric power steering (EPS) system.
There is no fluid reservoir to check or fill. For additional information on
the electric power steering (EPS) system, Refer to Driving Aids.

FUEL FILTER

Your vehicle is equipped with a lifetime fuel filter that is integrated with
the fuel tank. Regular maintenance or replacement is not needed.

WASHER FLUID CHECK

WARNING: If you operate your vehicle in temperatures below
40°F (5°C), use washer fluid with antifreeze protection. Failure

to use washer fluid with antifreeze protection in cold weather could
result in impaired windshield vision and increase the risk of injury or
accident.

Add fluid to fill the reservoir if the level is low. Only use a washer fluid
that meets Ford specifications. See the technical specifications chart in
the Capacities and Specifications chapter.

Note: The front and rear washer systems are supplied from the same
reservoir.
