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.
If the fluid is low, carefully clean and remove
the filler cap from the reservoir. Fill the
reservoir to the MAX line with Ford High
Performance DOT 3 Brake Fluid C6AZ-19542-AB
or DOT 3 equivalent fluid meeting Ford
specification ESA-M6C25-A.
NOTE:
If brake fluid is spilled on painted
surfaces, it must be flushed and wiped
away immediately. Brake fluid may
dissolve the paint finish on your
vehicle.
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.
R
WARNING
Do not let the reservoir for the master
cylinder run dry. This may cause the
brakes to fail.

WARNING

Windshield washer reservoir
239
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.
If you choose to use a windshield washing
solution that must be mixed, follow the
manufacturer’s mixing instructions. Improperly
mixed solutions may freeze unexpectedly.
R
WARNING
Windshield washer fluid contains
methanol which is poisonous.
Checking/adding the washer fluid for the
liftgate
Check the liftgate washer reservoir regularly.
This is not the same reservoir your front
windshield wipers use. The opening for this
reservoir is on the right side of the liftgate above
the tail lamp. A fill cup is located on top of the
right hand tail lamp and is accessible when the
liftgate is open. Close the fill cup cover after
filling and before closing the liftgate. Refill this
reservoir with the same solution you use for
your windshield. To find out how much washer
fluid the liftgate reservoir holds, see
Refill
capacities
in the Index.

Engine Coolant
Checking the Engine Coolant
NOTE:
Be sure to read and understand
Precautions When Servicing Your
Vehicle
at the beginning of this chapter.
Your vehicle’s engine coolant protects the engine
from overheating in the summer and from
freezing in the winter. Check the level of the
engine coolant at least once a month, but
preferably each time you stop for fuel. Simply
look at the engine coolant recovery reservoir
located in the engine compartment. To locate
this reservoir, see the diagram of your vehicle’s
engine under
Engine Compartment
in the
Capacities and Specifications
chapter.
