Fuel Filler Funnel Location; Running Out Of Fuel - Ford focus 2014 Owner's Manual

The use of diesel with a cetane rating of
47 or lower could lead to engine damage
that may not be covered by the vehicle
Warranty. Some fuel stations offer fuels
posted as Regular Diesel with a cetane
rating below 48, particularly in high altitude
areas. Fuels with cetane rating below 48
are not recommended.
Do not use any fuel other than those
recommended because they could lead to
engine damage that may not be covered
by the vehicle Warranty.
Note: Use of any fuel other than those
recommended can impair the emission
control system and cause a loss of vehicle
performance.
Do not use:
• Gasoline fuel.
• Kerosene or paraffin fuels.
• Fuel with methanol.
• Fuels containing metallic-based
additives, including manganese-based
compounds.
The use of fuels with metallic compounds
such as methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl (commonly known
as MMT), which is a manganese-based
fuel additive, will impair engine
performance and affect the emission
control system.
Do not be concerned if the engine
sometimes knocks lightly. However, if it
knocks heavily under most driving
conditions while you are using fuel with the
recommended cetane rating, contact an
authorized dealer to prevent any engine
damage.

Add a minimum of 1.1 gal (5 L) of fuel
to restart the engine. If your vehicle is
out of fuel and on a steep slope, more
fuel may be required.
You may need to switch the ignition
from off to on several times after
refueling to allow the fuel system to
pump the fuel from the tank to the
engine. When restarting, cranking time
takes a few seconds longer than
normal.
Only use an approved fuel container to
transfer fuel to your vehicle. Place the
container on the ground when filling it.
Do not fill a fuel container when it is
inside your vehicle (including the cargo
area).
Keep the fuel pump nozzle in contact
with the fuel container when filling it.
Do not use a device that holds the fuel
pump nozzle lever in the fill position.
WARNINGS
Do not insert the nozzle of a fuel
container or an aftermarket funnel
into the fuel system filler neck. This
