• Do not turn off the ignition while your vehicle is moving, especially at

high speeds.

• Have the items listed in your Scheduled Maintenance Guide performed

according to the specified schedule.

The scheduled maintenance items listed in the Scheduled Maintenance

Guide are essential to the life and performance of your vehicle and to its

emissions system.

If other than Ford, Motorcraft or Ford-authorized parts are used for

maintenance replacements or for service of components affecting

emission control, such non-Ford parts should be equivalent to genuine

Ford Motor Company parts in performance and durability.

Do not park, idle, or drive your vehicle in dry grass or other dry

ground cover. The emission system heats up the engine

compartment and exhaust system, which can start a fire.

Illumination of the charging system warning light, “Check Engine” light

or the temperature warning light, fluid leaks, strange odors, smoke or

loss of oil pressure, could indicate that the emission control system is

not working properly.

Exhaust leaks may result in entry of harmful and potentially

lethal fumes into the passenger compartment.

Do not make any unauthorized changes to your vehicle or engine. By

law, vehicle owners and anyone who manufactures, repairs, items, sells,

leases, trades vehicles, or supervises a fleet of vehicles are not permitted

to intentionally remove an emission control device or prevent it from

working. Information about your vehicle’s emission system is on the

Vehicle Emission Control Information Decal located on or near the

engine. This decal identifies engine displacement and gives some tune up

specifications.

Please consult your “Warranty Guide” for complete emission warranty

information.
