Note:
It is very important to use prediluted
coolant meeting the Ford specification in
order to avoid plugging the small coolant
passageways. Use of concentrated coolant
and water may cause coolant passageway
plugging and void the warranty. See
Note:
Automotive fluids are not
interchangeable; do not use coolant,
antifreeze or windshield washer fluid outside
of its specified function and vehicle location.
Adding Coolant
WARNINGS
Do not add coolant when the electric
motor is hot. Steam and scalding
liquids released from a hot cooling
system can cause severe burns. You could
receive burns if you spill coolant on hot
motor parts. Failure to follow this warning
could result in serious personal injury.
Do not put coolant in the windshield
washer fluid container. If sprayed on
the windshield, coolant could make
it difficult to see through the windshield.
Failure to follow this warning could result
in serious personal injury or death.
To reduce the risk of personal injury,
make sure the electric motor is cool
before unscrewing the coolant
pressure relief cap. The cooling system is
under pressure; steam and hot liquid can
come out forcefully when the cap is
loosened slightly. Failure to follow this
warning could result in serious personal
injury.
Note:
Do not add coolant further than the
MAX
mark.
Note:
In an emergency, add water to the
cooling system to reach an authorized
dealer. Have the system checked by an
authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Note:
Coolant replacement can only be
completed by an authorized dealer. If not
performed properly, damage could occur to
the cooling system components and may
void the warranty.
Note:
Do not use stop leak pellets or
cooling system sealants or additives as they
can cause damage to the cooling and
heating systems. This damage would not
be covered under your vehicle warranty.
Note:
During normal vehicle operation, the
coolant may change color from orange to
pink or light red. As long as the coolant is
clear and uncontaminated, this color change
does not indicate the coolant has degraded
nor does it require the coolant to be drained,
the system to be flushed, or the coolant to
be replaced.
Do not mix different colors or types of
coolant in your vehicle. Make sure the
correct coolant is used. Mixing of coolants
may harm your cooling system. The use of
an improper coolant may harm the electric
motor or cooling system components and
may invalidate the vehicle warranty.
A large amount of water without coolant
may be added, in case of emergency, to
reach a vehicle service location. In this
instance the cooling system must be
drained, chemically cleaned, and refilled
with prediluted coolant as soon as
possible. Water alone (without coolant)
can cause damage from corrosion,
overheating, freezing or blocking.
Do not add extra inhibitors or additives to
the coolant. These can be harmful and
compromise the corrosion protection of
the coolant.
Unscrew the cap slowly. Any pressure will
escape as you unscrew the cap.
Add prediluted coolant meeting the Ford
specification. See
