Outside air

Keep the air intakes forward of thewindscreen free from obstruction (snow,leaves etc.) to allow the climate controlsystem to function effectively.

Recirculated air

CAUTION

Prolonged use of recirculated airmaycause the windows to mist up. If thewindows mist up, follow the settings

for defrosting and demisting thewindscreen.

The air currently in the passengercompartmentwill be recirculated. Outsideair will not enter the vehicle.

Heating

Heating performance depends on thetemperature of the engine coolant.

Air conditioning

Note: The air conditioning operates onlywhen the temperature is above 4ºC(39ºF).

Note: If you use the air conditioning, thefuel consumption of your vehicle will behigher.

Air is directed through the evaporatorwhere it is cooled. Humidity is extractedfrom the air to help keep thewindows freeof mist. The resulting condensation isdirected to the outside of the vehicle andit is therefore normal if you see a smallpool of water under your vehicle.

AUXILIARYHEATER

Parking heater

WARNING

The parking heater must not beoperated at filling stations, nearsources of combustible vapours or

dust or in enclosed spaces.

The parking heater operatesindependently of the vehicle heater byheating the engine’s coolant circuit. It isfed from the vehicle fuel tank. You canalso use it while the vehicle is in motion tohelp the vehicle heater warm up theinterior more quickly.

Used properly, the parking heaterprovides the following benefits:

• It preheats the interior of the vehicle.

• It keeps the windows clear of ice inthe event of frost and preventscondensation.

• It avoids cold starts and allows theengine to reach operatingtemperature sooner.

Note: The parking heater will onlyoperate if there is at least 7.5 litres (1.6gallons) of fuel in the fuel tank and theambient temperature is below 15°C(59°F). The heater will not operate if thebattery is low.

Note: The heating depends on theoutside air temperature.

Note:When the parking heater isactivated, exhaust fumesmay come fromunder the sides of the vehicle. This isnormal.

Note:On vehicleswith amanual heating,ventilation and air conditioning system,the heating of the vehicle interior isdependent on the temperature, airdistribution and blower control settings.

To prevent the battery from discharging:

• Once the parking heater hasperformedone heating cycle, the nextprogrammed heating cycle will onlybe carried out if you have started thevehicle’s engine in between.

• After a heating cycle, drive the vehiclefor at least the period of the heatingcycle.

Programming the parking heater

Note: The programmed time is the timeat which you wish the vehicle to be warmand ready to drive, not the time at whichthe heater switches on.

The speed at which the engine idlesimmediately after starting will varydepending on the engine temperature.

If the engine is cold then the idle speedwill automatically be increased in order toheat the catalytic converter as quickly aspossible. This ensures that vehicleemissions are kept to an absoluteminimum.

The idle speedwill slowly decrease to thenormal level as the catalytic converterwarms up.

STARTINGAPETROLENGINE - E85

For general information on starting apetrol engine. See Starting a petrolengine (page 135).

135

Starting the engine

Starting at lowambienttemperatures

When the temperature is lower than -10°C(14°F) and the vehicle is filled with E85, anengine block heater should be used tofacilitate starting. See Engine heater(page 137). Failure to do this will result in anon start.

If the temperature is expected to remainbelow -10°C (14°F), it is recommendedthat you increase the proportion of petrolin the tank by topping up with 95 octaneunleaded petrol if the tank is not alreadyfull. About 10 litres (2.2 gallons) of petrolwill reduce the proportion of E85 in a ¾full tank from 85% to 70% and willconsiderably improve cold start capability.

If, at very low temperatures, the tank isfilled with only E85 and there is no way touse an engine block heater, you mayexperience difficulties starting the engine.

If the engine fails to start, proceed asfollows:

1. Fully depress the accelerator pedal.

2. Turn the ignition key to position III.

CAUTION

Release the ignition key as soon asthe engine has started.

3. Gradually release the acceleratorpedal after 5 seconds of enginecranking or as the engine speed rises.

If the engine fails to start, repeat steps 1,2 and 3, or connect an engine blockheater for two hours before attemptinganother start.

During starting, the fuel injectors areturnedoff as long as the accelerator pedalis depressed. This can be used to drainexcessive fuel from the intake manifoldafter several unsuccessful startingattempts.

If the battery has been disconnected orafter the fuel type has been changed, theidle speed may be irregular. This willimprove after 10 to 30 seconds.

DIESELPARTICULATEFILTER (DPF)

The DPF forms part of the emissionsreduction systems fitted to your vehicle.It filters harmful diesel particulates (soot)from the exhaust gas.

Regeneration

WARNING

Do not park or idle your vehicle overdry leaves, dry grass or othercombustible materials. The DPF

regeneration process creates very highexhaust gas temperatures and theexhaust will radiate a considerableamount of heat during and after DPFregeneration, andafter youhave switchedthe engine off. This is a potential firehazard.

CAUTION

Avoid running out of fuel.

Note: After you have switched yourengine off the fans may continue to runfor a short period of time.

Unlike a normal filter which requiresperiodic replacement, the DPF has beendesigned to regenerate, or clean itself tomaintain operating efficiency. Theregeneration process takes placeautomatically. However, some drivingconditions mean that you may need tosupport the regeneration process.

If you drive only short distances or yourjourneys contain frequent stopping andstarting, where there is increasedacceleration and deceleration, occasionaltrips with the following conditions couldassist the regeneration process:

• Drive your vehicle at a constant speed,preferably on a main road ormotorway, for up to 20 minutes.

• Avoid prolonged idling and alwaysobserve speed limits and roadconditions.

• Do not switch off the ignition.

• Use a lower gear than normal tomaintain a higher engine speedduringthis journey, where appropriate.

SWITCHINGOFF THEENGINE

Vehicleswith a turbocharger

CAUTION

Do not switch the engine off when itis running at high speed. If you do,the turbocharger will continue

running after the engine oil pressure hasdropped to zero. This will lead topremature turbocharger bearing wear.

Release the accelerator pedal. Wait untilthe engine has reached idle speed andthen switch it off.

Cruise control


The adaptive cruise control system isdesigned to help youmaintain a gap fromthe vehicle ahead or a set road speed ifthere is no slower vehicle ahead. Thesystem is intended to provide enhancedoperation of the vehicle when followingother vehicles which are in the same laneand travelling in the same direction.

WARNINGSAdaptive cruise control is not acollision warning or avoidancesystem. The separate forward alert

function provides a collision warning andmitigation feature. See Forward alertfunction (page 168). Youmust interveneif the system does not detect a vehicle infront.

Adaptive cruise control cannotcover all traffic, weather and roadconditions.

When driving you are responsibleformaintaining the correct distanceand speed, even when adaptive

cruise control is used. You must alwayspay attention to the traffic conditions andintervene when adaptive cruise control isnot maintaining a suitable speed orsuitable distance.

The adaptive cruise control doesnot brake for slow or stationaryvehicles.

When ACC is activated, you mayhear some unusual sounds duringautomatic braking. This is normal

and caused by the automatic brakingsystem.

The adaptive cruise control system isbased on the use of a radar sensor whichprojects a beam directly forward of thevehicle. This beam will detect any vehicleahead within the system's range.

The radar sensor is mounted behind thefront grille, immediately to the right of theFord badge (when viewed from the frontof the vehicle).

When using ACC, follow the strictguidelines below:

• Only use adaptive cruise control whenconditions are favourable, for exampleon motorways and main roads withsteady free flowing traffic.

• Do not use in poor visibility, specificallyfog, heavy rain, spray or snow.

• Do not use on icy or slippery roads.

• It is your responsibility to stay alert,drive safely and be in control of thevehicle at all times.

• Keep the front of the vehicle free fromdirt,metal badges or objects, includingvehicle front protectors and additionallights which may prevent the sensorfrom operating.

• Do not use ACC when entering orleaving a motorway.

The radar sensor has a limited field ofvision. In some situations it may detect avehicle other than the one expected ornot detect any vehicle at all.

164

Adaptive cruise control (ACC)

Detection beam issues

E71621

Detection issues can occur:

• When driving on a different line to thevehicle in front (A).

• With vehicles that edge into your lanethat can only be detected once theyhave moved fully into your lane (B).Motorcyclesmay be detected late, ornot at all.

• There may be issues with thedetection of vehicles in front whengoing into and coming out of a bend(C). The detection beamwill not followsharp curves in the road.

WARNING

In these cases ACCmay brake lateor unexpectedly. The driver shouldstay alert and intervene if necessary.

Automatic brakingwith ACC

Adaptive cruise control will automaticallybrake for you, if required to maintain theset gapbetween your vehicle and theonedetected in front. This braking capacity islimited to approximately 30% of the totalmanual braking capacity to ensuresmooth and comfortable cruising. If thecar needs to brakemore heavily than this,and you do not intervene by brakingmanually, an alarm will sound and awarning symbol will be displayed in thecluster.

WARNING

You must take immediate actiononce alerted, as the ACC brakingwill not be sufficient to keep a safe

distance to the vehicle in front.

This will meanthat at a speed of 100 km/h (62mph), thedistance to the vehicle in front will bemaintained at 50 metres (164 feet).

Note: If the accelerator is depressed fora short period, for example whenovertaking, the system is temporarilydeactivated and then reactivated whenthe accelerator pedal is released. Amessage is displayed in the informationdisplay.

Note: The gap setting will remainunchanged during ignition cycles.

Note: If the engine speed drops too low,amessage is displayed in the informationdisplay instructing you to change down agear (manual transmission only). If you donot follow this recommendation then thesystemwill go into automatic deactivationmode.

Note: The system will not operate if theelectronic stability programme (ESP) hasbeen manually switched off.

The system is dependent on various othersafety systems, for example ABS andESP. If any of these systems aremalfunctioning or reacting to anemergency, the system is automaticallydeactivated.

In the event of automatic deactivation asignal will sound and the message isdisplayed in the information display SeeInformationmessages (page 97).You must then intervene and adapt yourdriving and speed to vehicles in front.

An automatic deactivation can be due tothe:

• vehicle speed falling below 30 km/h(20 mph)

• wheels losing traction

• brake temperature is high, forexamplewhendrivingonmountainousor hilly roads

• engine speed is too low

• radar sensor is covered

• parking brake or electric parking brake(EPB) is applied.

FORWARDALERTFUNCTION

The system assists you by warning of therisk of a collision, and reducing the severityof a collision with a vehicle in front. Thisworks by using two methods:

• You are alerted to a potential collisionso youmay brake earlier than normal.

• Brake support is activated to enablefull braking effectiveness.

168


The collision alerts will only occur if thesystem is switchedon, however thebrakesupport is always on and cannot beturned off. Warnings are both visual andaudible. Brake support is activatedautomatically if necessary to reduce thecollision speed. Thebrake support systemonly reduces the collision speed if youbrake immediately once alerted.

WARNINGSNever wait for a collision warning.When driving you are responsibleformaintaining the correct distance

and speed, even when the system isused.

The system will only react tovehicles in front travelling in thesame direction and will not react to

slow or stationary vehicles.

Never drive in a manner to provokethe system. The system is designedto assist in emergencies only.

The systemalerts you bywarning chimesand a visual warning in the informationdisplay. See Informationmessages(page 97).

When forward alert is deactivated thelamp is illuminated in the display. SeeWarninglampsandindicators (page80).

The systemdoes not operate in all drivingsituations and traffic, weather and roadconditions.

The radar sensor detects vehicles in frontthat are driving in the same direction asyou. If the risk of collision still increasesafter the initial warning then brake supportis activated. Brake support prepares thebrake system for rapid braking and thebrakes are applied gently, which may benoticed as a slight jerk. If the brake pedalis depressed sufficiently quickly thenbraking is implemented with full brakefunction, even if the force on the pedal islight.

CAUTION

Warnings may be triggered late, beabsent or triggered unnecessarily ifthe traffic situation means that the

radar sensor cannot accurately detect avehicle in front. The system uses thesame radar sensors as adaptive cruisecontrol (ACC) and therefore has the samelimitations. SeePrincipleofoperation(page 164).

Note: The system may be used with orwithout the ACC system being activated.

• Leave the engine running while the kitis in use, but not if the vehicle is in anenclosed or poorly ventilated area (forexample, inside a building). In thesecircumstances, switch thecompressor onwith the engine turnedoff.

• Replace the sealant bottle with a newone before the expiry date (see topof bottle) is reached.

• Inform all other users of the vehiclethat the tyre has been temporarilysealed with the tyre repair kit andmake them aware of the specialdriving conditions to be observed.

Inflating the tyre

WARNINGSCheck the sidewall of the tyre priorto inflation. If there are any cracks,bumps or similar damage, do not

attempt to inflate the tyre.

Do not stand directly beside the tyrewhile the compressor is pumping.

Watch the sidewall of the tyre. If anycracks, bumps or similar damageappear, turn off the compressor and

let the air out by means of the pressurerelief valveB. Do not continue drivingwiththis tyre.

The sealant contains natural rubberlatex. Avoid contact with skin andclothing. If this happens, rinse the

affected areas immediately with plenty ofwater and contact your doctor.

If the tyre inflation pressure does notreach 1.8 bar (26 psi) within sevenminutes, the tyremay have suffered

excessive damage, making a temporaryrepair impossible. In this case, do notcontinue driving with this tyre.

CAUTION

Screwing the bottle onto the bottleholder will pierce the seal of thebottle. Do not unscrew the bottle

from the holder as the sealant will escape.

1. Open the lid of the tyre repair kit.

2. Peel off the label I showing themaximum permissible speed of80 km/h (50 mph) from the casingand attach it to the instrument panelin the driver’s field of view. Make surethe label does not obscure anythingimportant.

3. Take the hose C and the power plugwith cableG out of the kit.

4. Unscrew the orange cap D and thebottle lid J.

5. Screw the sealant bottle K clockwiseinto the bottle holder E fully tight.

6. Remove the valve cap from thedamaged tyre.

7. Detach the protective capA from thehose C and screw the hose C firmlyonto the valve of the damaged tyre.

8. Make sure that the compressor switchH is in position 0.

9. Insert the power plugG into the cigarlighter socket or auxiliary powersocket. SeeCigarlighter (page 126).See Auxiliary power sockets(page 127).


11. Move the compressor switch H toposition 1.

12. Inflate the tyre for no longer thanseven minutes to an inflationpressure ofminimum 1.8 bar (26 psi)and a maximum of 3.5 bar (51 psi).Move the compressor switch H toposition0 and check the current tyrepressure with pressure gauge F.

13. Remove the power plugG from thecigar lighter socket or auxiliary powersocket.

14. Quickly unscrew the hose C fromthe tyre valve and replace theprotective cap A. Fasten the valvecap again.

15. Leave the sealant bottle K in thebottle holder E.

16. Make sure the kit, the bottle lid andthe orange cap are stored safely, butstill easily accessible in the vehicle.The kit will be required again whenyou check the tyre pressure.

17. Immediately drive approximatelythree kilometres (two miles) so thatthe sealant can seal the damagedarea.

Note:When pumping in the sealantthrough the tyre valve, the pressure mayrise up to 6 bar (87 psi) but will drop againafter about 30 seconds.

WARNING

If you experience heavy vibrations,unsteady steering behaviour ornoises while driving, reduce your

speed and drive with caution to a placewhere it is safe for you to stop the vehicle.Recheck the tyre and its pressure. If thetyre pressure is less than 1.3 bar (19 psi)or if there are any cracks, bumps or similardamage visible, do not continue drivingwith this tyre.

Checking the tyre pressure

1. Stop the vehicle after drivingapproximately three kilometres(two miles). Check, and wherenecessary, adjust the pressure of thedamaged tyre.

2. Attach the kit and read the tyrepressure from the pressure gauge F.

232

Wheels and tyres

3. If the pressure of the sealant-filled tyreis 1.3 bar (19 psi) or more, adjust it tothe specified pressure. SeeTechnical specifications (page235).

4. Follow the inflation procedure onceagain to top up the tyre.

5. Check the tyre pressure again fromthe pressure gauge F. If the tyrepressure is too high, deflate the tyreto the specified pressure using thepressure relief valve B.

6. Once you have inflated the tyre to itscorrect tyre pressure, move thecompressor switch H to position 0,remove the power plugG from thesocket, unscrew the hose C, fastenthe valve cap and replace theprotective cap A.

7. Leave the sealant bottleK in the bottleholder E and store the kit away safelyin its original location.

8. Drive to the nearest tyre specialist toget the damaged tyre replaced.Before the tyre is removed from therim, inform your tyre dealer that thetyre contains sealant. Renew the kitas soon as possible after it has beenused once.

Note: Remember that emergencyroadside tyre repair kits only providetemporary mobility. Regulationsconcerning tyre repair after usage of tyrerepair kit may differ from country tocountry. You should consult a tyrespecialist for advice.

WARNING

Before driving, make sure the tyreis adjusted to the recommendedinflation pressure. See Technical

specifications (page235). Monitor thetyre pressure until the sealed tyre isreplaced.

Empty sealant bottles can be disposedof togetherwith normal householdwaste.Return remains of sealant to your dealeror dispose of it in compliance with localwaste disposal regulations.

TYRECARE

E70415

To make sure the front and rear tyres ofyour vehicle wear evenly and last longer,we recommend that you swap the tyresfrom front to rear and vice versa at regularintervals of between 5 000 and 10 000km (3 000 and 6 000 miles).

CAUTION

Do not scrub the sidewalls of thetyres when you are parking.

If you have to mount a kerb, do so slowlyand approach it with the wheels atright-angles to the kerb.

Examine the tyres regularly for cuts,foreign objects and uneven wear of thetread. Uneven wear could mean that thewheel alignment is outside specification.

Check the tyre pressures (including thespare) when cold, every two weeks.

233

USINGWINTER TYRES

CAUTION

Make sure that you use the correctwheel nuts for the type of wheel thewinter tyres are fitted to.

If winter tyres are used, make sure thatthe tyre pressures are correct. SeeTechnicalspecifications (page 235).

USINGSNOWCHAINS


Do not use snow chains onsnow-free roads.

Only fit snow chains to specifiedtyres. See Technicalspecifications (page 235).

CAUTION

If your vehicle is fitted with wheeltrims, remove them before fittingsnow chains.

Note: The ABS will continue to operatenormally.

Only use small link snow chains.

Only use snowchains on the frontwheels.

Vehicleswith stability control(ESP)

Vehicles with stability control (ESP) mayexhibit some unusual drivingcharacteristics which can be avoided byswitching the system off. See Usingstability control (page 151).

TYREPRESSUREMONITORINGSYSTEM

WARNINGSThe system does not relieve you ofyour responsibility to regularly checkthe tyre pressures.

The system will only provide a lowtyre pressure warning. It will notinflate the tyres.

The system may take longer todetect low pressure in the tyres ifyou have fitted snow chains.

Do not drive on significantlyunder-inflated tyres. Thismay causethe tyres to overheat and fail.

Under-inflation reduces fuel efficiency,tyre tread life and may also affect yourability to drive the vehicle safely.

CAUTIONSDo not bend or damage the valveswhen you are inflating the tyres.

Have tyres installed by properlytrained technicians.

Note:After changing the tyres or sensorsthe system will take a few minutes toreset. During this period the system isoperational but a warning lamp mayappear.

The system monitors the pressure in thetyres using sensors located on thewheelsand a receiver located in your vehicle.When the system detects low pressurein the tyres, a warning message isdisplayed in the information display. SeeInformationmessages (page 97).

234

Wheels and tyres

If a low pressure warning message isdisplayed in the information display, checkthe tyre pressures as soon as possibleand inflate them to the recommendedpressure. See Technicalspecifications (page 235). If thishappens frequently, have the causedetermined and rectified as soon aspossible.

Checking the tyre pressures

Note: If the tyre pressures are greaterthan or equal to 3.3 bar (48 lbf/in²), youwill see the + symbol below the pressurevalue. The system only measurespressure up to 3.3 bar (48 lbf/in²). The +symbol indicates that the tyre pressuresmay be higher.
