WARNING
Brake fluid is toxic.
If brake fluid contacts eyes, flush eyes with
running water for 15 minutes. Get medical
attention if irritation persists. If taken internally,
drink water and induce vomiting. Get medical
attention immediately.
Brake fluid level
If the fluid is low, carefully clean and remove
the cap from the reservoir. Fill the reservoir to
the MAX line with Ford High Performance DOT
3 Brake Fluid C6AZ-19542-AA or DOT 3
equivalent fluid meeting Ford specification
ESA-M6C25-A.
R
WARNING
If you use a brake fluid that is not DOT
3, you will cause permanent damage to
your brakes.
Do not fill the reservoir above the MAX line.
If you find that the fluid level is excessively low
— below the seam or ridge on the outside of the
plastic reservoir — have the brake system
inspected.
195
R
WARNING
Do not let the reservoir for the master
cylinder run dry. This may cause the
brakes to fail.
Windshield Washer Fluid
Washer Fluid
Check the level of the windshield washer fluid
every time you stop for fuel. The reservoir for
the windshield washer fluid is located in the
engine compartment. Visual inspection can
determine if the washer fluid is adequate. Do
not operate the washer when the reservoir is
empty.
Windshield washer fluid reservoir
196
R
WARNING
Do not put windshield washer fluid in the
container for the engine coolant.
Use specially formulated windshield washer
fluid rather than plain water, because specially
formulated washer fluids contain additives that
dissolve road grime. For safety reasons, washer
fluids containing an appropriate antifreeze such
as methanol should be used in freezing weather
(temperatures below 32˚F [0˚C]). State or local
regulations on Volatile Organic Compounds
(VOCs) may restrict use of the most common
antifreeze, methanol. Washer fluids containing
non-methanol antifreeze agents should be used
only if they provide cold weather protection
without damaging the vehicle’s paint finish,
wiper blades, and windshield washer system.
Engine Coolant
Adding Engine Coolant
R
WARNING
Be careful not to add engine coolant to
the windshield washer fluid reservoir. If
sprayed on the windshield, engine coolant
could make it difficult to see through the
windshield.
When the engine is cool, add a 50/50 mixture of
engine coolant and water to the engine coolant
recovery reservoir — DO NOT ADD DIRECTLY
TO THE RADIATOR. Add straight water only in
an emergency, but you should replace it with a
50/50 mixture of coolant and distilled water as
soon as possible.
197
Check the coolant level in the coolant recovery
reservoir the next few times you drive the
vehicle. If necessary, add enough of a 50/50
mixture of coolant and water to bring the liquid
level to the fill line on the reservoir.
R
WARNING
Never remove the coolant recovery cap
while the engine is running or hot.
If you must remove the coolant recovery cap,
follow these steps to avoid personal injury
caused by escaping steam or engine coolant:
1.
Before you remove the cap, turn the engine
off and let it cool.
2.
When the engine is cool, wrap a thick cloth
around the cap and turn it slowly,
counterclockwise to the first stop.
3.
Step back while the pressure releases.
