INTEGRATED BLIND
SPOT MIRRORS
Your outside mirrors have
an integrated convex mirror
in the upper corner. This
increases visibility alongside
the vehicle; thereby helping
you see a vehicle which may
be in your blind spot. As the
vehicle approaches, its image
will transition from the main
mirror to the blind spot mirror
in the upper corner. Refer
to your Owner’s Guide for
more information.
REARVIEW CAMERA
(if equipped)
This system provides a visual
display of the area behind the
vehicle. The display automatically
appears in the rearview mirror
or the navigation screen (if
equipped) when the vehicle is
in R (Reverse) and uses colors
(green, yellow and red) to alert
you of your proximity to objects.
Note:
Visibility aids do not
replace the need to watch
where the vehicle is moving.
Refer to your Owner’s Guide for
safety information, more detail
and limitations.
Improved Fuel Economy While
Coasting or Decelerating:
Your vehicle has been designed
to improve fuel economy by
reducing fuel usage during
coasting or while decelerating.
This may be perceived as a light
to medium braking sensation
when removing your foot from
the accelerator pedal.
ADDITIONAL
FEATURES
ESSENTIAL
INFORMA
TION
Fuel Pump Shut-off Switch:
This device stops the electric fuel
pump from sending fuel to the engine when your vehicle has
had a substantial jolt. After an accident, if you find that the
engine cranks, but does not start, this switch may have been
activated. The fuel pump shut-off switch is located in the front
passenger’s footwell, behind a flip-up cover, by the kick panel
access cover.
Location of Spare Tire:
Your vehicle is equipped with a temporary
spare tire located under the vehicle, just forward of the rear bumper.
The temporary spare tire is designed for emergency use only and
should be replaced as soon as possible. The jack and tools are located
under the carpeted floor panel in the rear cargo area. For complete
details on how to change your tire, refer to the Roadside Emergencies
chapter in your Owner’s Guide.
Tire Pressure:
Your tire pressure is properly set at the dealership according
to the recommended specifications found on the Safety Compliance
Certification Label or Tire Label located on the B-Pillar or the edge of the
driver’s door. Check your tire pressure at least once a month and before long
trips (including spare). As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been
equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that illuminates a low
tire pressure warning light
in the message center when one or more of your
tires is significantly under-inflated. Improperly inflated tires can affect vehicle
handling and can fail suddenly, possibly resulting in loss of vehicle control. Refer to
the Tires, Wheels and Loading chapter in your Owner’s Guide for more details and
safety information.
Easy Fuel™ Fuel System:
Your vehicle has a ‘no cap’ fuel system which allows you to simply
open the fuel filler door, insert the nozzle and start fueling. Wait about five seconds before
pulling the nozzle out in order to allow any residual fuel to drain into the tank. The Easy
Fuel
™
system is self-sealing and therefore protected against dust, dirt, water, snow and
ice. If you need to fill your fuel tank with a portable fuel container, use the fuel funnel which
is located inside the rear passenger side cargo compartment access door. Slowly insert the
funnel into the Easy Fuel
™
system and fill the tank with fuel from the container. When done,
clean the funnel or properly dispose of it. Extra funnels can be purchased from your authorized
dealer. Do not use aftermarket funnels as they will not work with the Easy Fuel™ system and may
cause damage.
Fuel Tank Capacity/Fuel info:
Your vehicle has a fuel tank capacity of 17.5 gallons (66.2L). If
you have a V6 engine, you have a flex fuel vehicle. Flex fuel vehicles have a yellow ring around the
top of the fuel filler inlet (tube) and can use either Regular unleaded fuel, E85 Ethanol Fuel or any
mixture of the two. If you do not have a flex fuel vehicle, then only use “Regular” unleaded gasoline
with an octane rating of 87. Do not use E85 fuels because your vehicle was not designed to run on
fuels with more than 10% ethanol.
SOS Post-Crash Alert System
TM
:
This system provides audible and visual alarms in the event of a crash
which causes the deployment of airbags or the activation of the safety belt pretensioners. The turn
signals will flash and the horn will sound. To deactivate the system, press the hazard flasher control
or you can press
the
button on your remote transmitter.
Roadside Assistance:
Your new Mercury Mariner comes with the assurance and support of 24-hour
emergency roadside assistance. Roadside assistance includes such services as: lockout assistance, limited
fuel delivery, battery jump starts, changing a flat tire, towing and winch out. To receive roadside assistance in
the United States, call 1 (800) 241-3673. In Canada, call 1 (800) 665-2006.
