Fuel Filler Cap

Your fuel tank filler cap has a regular turn
style design, with two to three turns on or
off.
When fueling your vehicle:
1. Turn the engine off.
2. Carefully turn the filler cap
counterclockwise two to three turns,
until it opens.
3. Hang the fuel cap tether cord on the
filler door hook.
4. After refueling, to install the cap, align
it with the filler pipe.
5. Turn the filler cap clockwise two to
three turns until it clicks three times.
If you must replace the fuel filler cap,
replace it with a fuel filler cap that is
designed for your vehicle. The customer
warranty may be void for any damage to
the fuel tank or fuel system if the correct
genuine Ford fuel filler cap is not used.

Fuel and Refueling

FUEL CONSUMPTION

Note: The amount of fuel in the empty
reserve varies and should not be relied upon
to increase driving range. When refueling
your vehicle after the fuel gauge indicates
empty, you might not be able to refuel the
full amount of the advertised capacity due
to the empty reserve still present in the fuel
tank.
Indicated capacity is the difference in the
amount of fuel in the fuel tank and when
the fuel gauge indicates empty. Empty
reserve is the amount of fuel in the fuel
tank after the fuel gauge indicates empty.
Your authorized dealer can give you advice
on improving your fuel consumption.

Filling the Fuel Tank

For consistent results when filling the fuel
tank:

•
Results are most accurate when the filling
method is consistent.

Calculating Fuel Economy

Do not measure fuel economy during the
first 1,500 km of driving (this is your
engine's break-in period); a more accurate
measurement is obtained after 3,000 km.
Also, fuel expense, frequency of fill ups or
fuel gauge readings are not accurate ways
to measure fuel economy.
1.
85
Turn the ignition off before fueling; an
inaccurate reading results if the engine
is left running.
Use the same fill rate
(low-medium-high) each time the tank
is filled.
The maximum tank capacity, during
fueling, is reached when the pump is
automatically cut off for the third time.
Fill the fuel tank completely and record
the initial odometer reading.
