AIMING THE HEADLAMPS
Your vehicle is equipped with a
Vehicle Headlamp Aim Device
(VHAD) on each headlamp. Each
headlamp may be properly aimed
in the vertical (up/down) and the
horizontal (left/right) directions
using your VHAD system. The
headlamps on your vehicle are
properly aimed at the assembly
plant, and vertical and horizontal
indicators of the VHAD system are
calibrated.
A bubble (vertical indicator) that
is not centered between the two
red lines does not necessarily
indicate out-of-aim headlamps. If
your vehicle is not positioned on a
level surface, the slope will be
L
R
UP
DN
Maintenance and care
163
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
included in the vertical indication.
Therefore, vertical and horizontal
headlamp adjustment should be
performed only when the beam
direction appears to be incorrect.
You will need one 4 mm wrench or
socket with ratchet to make the
adjustments.
The following procedure assumes
that the factory set horizontal
indicator reference has not
changed and the vehicle’s front
structure is in its factory alignment
condition. If the vehicle has been
in an accident requiring the front
end of the vehicle to be repaired,
the horizontal indicator should be
recalibrated by the servicing
facility according to instructions in
the vehicle’s Service Instruction.
Horizontal aim adjustment
1. With the hood open, locate the
horizontal indicator and adjusting
screw. They are located below the
viewing window at the rear of the
headlamp assembly.
Maintenance and care
164
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. The “L” and “R” under the
viewing window on the top of the
headlamp refer to the directional
change (left or right) of the
horizontal aim.
3. Use a 4 mm wrench or socket to
turn the horizontal adjusting screw
until the forward edge of the
knurled portion of the screw is
aligned with the “0” reference
mark (as shown) on the plastic
slider when viewed directly from
above.
Vertical aim adjustment
1. Park the vehicle on a level
surface.
2. With the hood open, locate the
bubble level and vertical
adjustment screw. The adjustment
screw is located on the outboard
side of the headlamp below the
headlamp upper attachment.
3. The “UP” and “DN” on the
bubble indicate the directional
change (up or down) of the
vertical aim.
4. Use a 4 mm wrench or socket to
turn the vertical adjusting screw
clockwise or counterclockwise until
the bubble is centered.

CLEANING AND CARING FOR
YOUR VEHICLE
Refer to the “Customer Assistance
Guide” for a list of Ford-approved
cleaners, polishes and waxes.
Washing your vehicle
Wash your vehicle regularly with
cold or lukewarm water. Never use
strong detergents or soap. If your
vehicle is particularly dirty, use a
quality car wash detergent. Always
use a clean sponge, washing glove
or similar device and plenty of
water for best results. To avoid
spots, avoid washing when the
hood is still warm, immediately
after or during exposure to strong
sunlight.
During winter months, it is
especially important to wash the
vehicle on a regular basis. Large
quantities of dirt and road salt are
difficult to remove and also cause
damage to the vehicle. Remove any
exterior accessories, such as
antennas, before entering a car
wash.
After washing, apply the brakes
several times to dry them.
Waxing your vehicle
Wax when water stops beading on
the surface. This could be every
three or four months, depending
on operating conditions.
Maintenance and care
166
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Use only carnauba or
synthetic-based waxes. Remove
any bugs and tar before waxing
vehicle. Use cleaning fluid or
alcohol with a clean cloth to
remove. Use tar remover to
remove any tar spots.
Repairing paint chips
Minor scratches or paint damage
from road debris may be repaired
with touch-up, paint repair foil or
aerosol paint spray from the Ford
accessory line. Observe the
application instructions on the
products.
Remove particles such as bird
droppings, tree sap, insect
remains, tar spots, road salt and
industrial fallout immediately.
Cleaning the wheels
Wash with the same detergent as
the body of your vehicle. Do not
use acid-based wheel cleaners,
steel wool, fuel or strong
detergents. Never use abrasives
that will damage the finish of
special wheel surfaces. Use a tar
remover to remove grease and tar.
Cleaning the engine
Engines are more efficient when
they are clean because grease and
dirt buildup keep the engine
warmer than normal. When
washing:
• Take care when using a power
washer to clean the engine. The
Maintenance and care
167
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
high pressure fluid could
penetrate the sealed parts and
cause damage.
• Do not spray with cold water to
avoid cracking the engine block
or other engine components.
• Cover the highlighted areas to
prevent water damage when
cleaning the engine.
• Never wash or rinse the engine
while it is running; water in the
running engine may cause
internal damage.
Cleaning plastic exterior parts
Use vinyl cleaner for routine
cleaning. Clean with a tar remover
if necessary. Do not clean plastic
parts with thinners, solvents or
petroleum-based cleaners.
Maintenance and care
168
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cleaning the exterior lamps
Wash with the same detergent as
the exterior of your vehicle. Use
glass cleaner or tar remover if
necessary.
To avoid scratching the lamps, do
not use a dry paper towel,
chemical solvents or abrasive
cleaners.
Cleaning the wiper blades
If the wiper blades do not wipe
properly, clean the windshield and
wiper blades with undiluted
windshield wiper solution or a mild
detergent. Rinse thoroughly with
clean water. To avoid damaging the
blades, do not use fuel, kerosene,
paint thinner or other solvents.
Cleaning the instrument panel
Clean with a damp cloth, then dry
with a dry cloth.
Avoid cleaner or polish that
increases the gloss of the upper
portion of the instrument panel.
The dull finish in this area helps
protect the driver from undesirable
windshield reflection.
Cleaning the interior fabric
Remove dust and loose dirt with a
whisk broom or a vacuum cleaner.
Remove fresh spots immediately.
Follow the directions that come
with the cleaner.
Maintenance and care
169
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cleaning and maintaining the
safety belts
Clean the safety belts with a mild
soap solution recommended for
cleaning upholstery or carpets. Do
not bleach or dye the belts,
because these actions may weaken
the belt webbing.
Check the safety belt system
periodically to make sure there are
no nicks, wear or cuts. If your
vehicle has been involved in an
accident, refer to the Safety belt
maintenance section in the
Seating and safety restraints
chapter.
Cleaning the built-in child seat
(if equipped)
Clean with mild soap and water.
Do not use household cleaning
products because they may
weaken the safety belt webbing or
damage the vinyl parts of the seat.
The child seat liner is removable
and may be machine-washed and
air dried.
