Fuel And Refueling; Safety Precautions; Fuel Quality - Gasoline; Fuel Quality - E85 - Ford FOCUS Owner's Manual

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNINGS
Stop refueling after the fuel nozzle
stops the second time. Additional
fuel will fill the expansion space in
the fuel tank which could lead to fuel
overflowing. Fuel spillage could be
hazardous to other road users.
Do not use any kind of flames or heat
near the fuel system. The fuel system
is under pressure. There is a risk of
injury if the fuel system is leaking.

FUEL QUALITY - GASOLINE

CAUTION
Do not use leaded gasoline or gasoline
with additives containing other
metallic compounds (e.g.
manganese-based). They could damage
the emission system.
Note: We recommend that you use only
high quality fuel without additives or other
engine treatments.
Use minimum 95 octane unleaded
gasoline that meets the specification
defined by EN 228, or the equivalent
national specification.
Your vehicle is suitable for use with ethanol
blends up to 10% (E5 and E10).

FUEL QUALITY - E85

WARNINGS
Do not modify the fuel system
configuration or the components in
the system.
Do not replace the fuel system or the
components with parts not specially
designed to be used with E85.

a higher fuel consumption.
Note: Your vehicle will operate well on
commercial quality 95 octane unleaded
gasoline, but only high quality E85 offers
the same protection and performance.
Use minimum 95 octane unleaded
gasoline that meets the specification
defined by EN 228, or equivalent. You can
also use a mixture of unleaded gasoline
and E85.
Long-term storage
Due to small amounts of corrosive
impurities that may be found in the E85, it
is recommended that you fill the tank with
only 95 octane unleaded gasoline prior to
long-term storage of your vehicle.
