Spare Tire Information:

 The spare tire is located under the vehicle, just forward of the rear bumper. The 

jack, lug nut wrench, jack handle, and jack handle extension are located in the cab behind the 2nd row 

passenger seat. The tools are contained in a bag attached to the jack. 

Fuses:

 If the vehicle’s electrical components are not operating, a fuse may have blown. The fuse panel 

is located below the instrument panel on the driver’s side; remove the cover to view the fuses. For more 

information regarding changing fuses, refer to the Roadside Emergencies chapter of your Owner’s Guide.

Fuel Information:

 Use regular unleaded gasoline with an (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87. Ford Motor  

Company does not recommend using regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 86 or lower in 

high altitude areas.

Tire Pressure:

 Your vehicle’s tire pressure is properly set by your authorized dealer according to the  

recommended specifications as shown on the Safety Compliance Certification Label, (located on the 

edge of the driver’s door jamb or the B-pillar). Check your tire pressure during routine maintenance and 

seasonal changes. If the Tire Pressure Monitoring System light stays illuminated after starting, immediately 

check the vehicle’s tire pressures. 

Note:

 Improperly inflated tires can affect vehicle handling and can fail 

suddenly, resulting in a possible loss of vehicle control.

Fuel Pump Shut-Off Switch:

 The fuel pump shut-off switch is a device intended to stop the electric fuel 

pump when your vehicle has been involved in a substantial jolt. The switch is located in the passenger’s 

footwell, by the kick panel. After a collision, if the engine cranks but does not start, the fuel pump shut-off 

switch may have been activated. For more information regarding the fuel pump shut-off switch, refer to the 

Roadside Emergencies chapter of your Owner’s Guide.

Changing the Tires: 

The spare tire is not equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)  

sensor. The TPMS warning light will illuminate when the spare tire is in use. Replace the spare tire with 
a road tire as soon as possible. If you get a flat tire while driving, do not apply the brake heavily; instead, 
gradually decrease your speed, hold the steering wheel firmly and slowly move to a safe place on the side 
of the road.

 

Roadside Assistance:

 During your Sport Trac’s 3-year/36,000 mile limited warranty period, the  

assurance and support of a 24-hour emergency roadside assistance program is included. Roadside  

assistance includes such services as fuel delivery, tire changes, jump starts and help when you are locked 

out of your vehicle. Complete your roadside assistance identification card and keep it handy (such as in 

your wallet) for quick reference. This identification card is located in your Ford Owner’s Information  

portfolio. To receive roadside assistance in the United States, call (800) 241-3673.

Rear Window Buffeting:

 When one or both of the rear windows are open, the vehicle may demonstrate a 

wind throb or buffeting noise; this noise is common among a wide range of vehicles and can be eliminated 

by simply lowering a front window approximately two to three inches.

Roof Rack Crossbars:

 If the crossbars are re-positioned close to each other, the vehicle may exhibit 

objectionable noise at highway speeds. This noise can be minimized by positioning the front crossbar just 

behind the front door, and the rear crossbar in the furthest rearward position.
