Driving with a Catalytic Converter
WARNINGS
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
Do not switch the ignition off when

REFUELING
WARNINGS
When refueling always shut the
engine off and never allow sparks or
open flames near the fuel tank filler
valve. Never smoke or use a cell phone
while refueling. Fuel vapor is extremely
hazardous under certain conditions. Avoid
inhaling excess fumes.
The fuel system may be under
pressure. If you hear a hissing sound
near the fuel filler inlet, do not refuel
until the sound stops. Otherwise, fuel may
spray out, which could cause serious
personal injury.
Do not remove the fuel pump nozzle
from its fully inserted position when
refueling.
Do not overfill the fuel tank. The
pressure in an overfilled tank may
cause leakage and lead to fuel spray
and fire.
WARNINGS
Stop refueling when the fuel pump
nozzle automatically shuts off for the
first time. Failure to follow this will
fill the expansion space in the fuel tank and
could lead to fuel overflowing.
Wait at least 10 seconds before
removing the fuel pump nozzle to
allow any residual fuel to drain into
the fuel tank.
Note:
Do not attempt to start the engine if
you have filled the fuel tank with incorrect
fuel.
Fuel Filler Cap
Your fuel tank filler cap has a regular turn
style design, with two to three turns on or
off.
When fueling your vehicle:
1.
Turn the engine off.
2. Fully open the fuel tank filler door until
it engages.
3. Carefully turn the filler cap
counterclockwise two to three turns,
until it opens.
4. Hang the fuel cap tether cord on the
filler door hook.
5. After refueling, to install the cap, align
it with the filler pipe.
6. Turn the filler cap clockwise two to
three turns until you feel a strong
resistance and it clicks twice.
7.
Fully close the fuel tank filler door.
If you must replace the fuel filler cap,
replace it with a fuel filler cap that is
designed for your vehicle. The customer
warranty may be void for any damage to
the fuel tank or fuel system if the correct
genuine Ford fuel filler cap is not used.
