The image of the approaching vehicle is
small and near the inboard edge of the
main mirror when it is at a distance. The
image becomes larger and begins to move
outboard across the main mirror as the
vehicle approaches (A). The image
transitions from the main mirror and begins
to appear in the blind spot mirror as the
vehicle approaches (B). The vehicle
transitions to your peripheral field of view
as it leaves the blind spot mirror (C).

INTERIOR MIRROR

Manual Dimming Mirror

WARNING

Do not adjust the mirrors when your
vehicle is moving. This could result
in the loss of control of your vehicle,

serious personal injury or death.

Pull the tab below the mirror toward you
to reduce the effect of bright light from
behind.

Automatic Dimming Mirror

(If Equipped)

WARNING

Do not adjust the mirrors when your
vehicle is moving. This could result
in the loss of control of your vehicle,

serious personal injury or death.

The mirror dims to reduce the effect of
bright light from behind. It returns to
normal when the bright light from behind
is no longer present or if you shift into
reverse (R).

Do not block the sensors on the front and
back of the mirror.

Note:

A rear center passenger or raised rear

center head restraint could prevent light
from reaching the sensor.

Speedometer

Your vehicle is shipped with a certified
digital speedometer and analog gauge. If
your local procedures require calibration,
utilize the distance per time on-road test
or a radar-based speed test. If a
dynamometer calibration is required,
reference the calibration procedure found
at www.Fleet.Ford.com or check OASIS
for updated information.

Fuel Gauge

Note:

The fuel gauge may vary slightly

when your vehicle is moving or on a gradient.

Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge will
indicate approximately how much fuel is
left in the fuel tank. The arrow adjacent to
the fuel pump symbol indicates on which
side of your vehicle the fuel filler door is
located.

The needle should move toward F when
you refuel your vehicle. If the needle points
to E after adding fuel, this indicates your
vehicle needs service soon.

After refueling some variability in needle
position is normal:

•

It may take a short time for the needle
to reach full after leaving the gas
station. This is normal and depends
upon the slope of pavement at the gas
station.

•

The fuel amount dispensed into the
tank is a little less or more than the
gauge indicated. This is normal and
depends upon the slope of pavement
at the gas station.

•

If the gas station nozzle shuts off
before the tank is full, try a different
gas pump nozzle.

•

There is a small reserve left in the tank
when the fuel gauge reaches empty.

Low Fuel Reminder

A low fuel level reminder displays and
sounds when the distance to empty
reaches 50 mi (80 km), 25 mi (40 km),
10 mi (20 km) and 0 mi (0 km).

Variations:

Note:

The low fuel reminder can appear at

different fuel gauge positions depending on
fuel economy conditions. This variation is
normal.

WARNING LAMPS AND
INDICATORS

The following warning lamps and
indicators alert you to a vehicle condition
that may become serious. Some lamps
illuminate when you start your vehicle to
make sure they work. If any lamps remain
on after starting your vehicle, refer to the
respective system warning lamp for further
information.

Note:

Some warning indicators appear in

the information display and function the
same as a warning lamp, but do not display
when you start your vehicle.

Airbag readiness

E67017

If this light fails to illuminate
when the ignition is turned on,
continues to flash or remains on,

contact your authorized dealer as soon as
possible. A chime will sound when there is
a malfunction in the indicator light.

Anti-Lock Braking System

If it illuminates when you are
driving, this indicates a
malfunction. You continue to

have the normal braking system (without
ABS) unless the brake system warning
lamp is also illuminated. Have the system
checked by an authorized dealer.

Brake System

WARNING

Driving your vehicle with the warning
lamp on is dangerous. A significant
decrease in braking performance

may occur. It may take you longer to stop
your vehicle. Have your vehicle checked as
soon as possible. Driving extended
distances with the parking brake engaged
can cause brake failure and the risk of
personal injury.
