WARNING

  • Park the vehicle so that it does not obstruct or endanger other road users or yourself.
  • Set up the warning triangle.
  • Make sure the vehicle is standing on firm, level ground and that the wheels are pointing straight ahead.
  • Switch off the ignition and apply the parking brake.
  • If the vehicle has a manual transmission, select first or reverse gear.
If the transmission is automatic, select position "P".
  • No passengers may remain in the vehicle.
  • Chock the diagonally opposite wheel with a suitable wedge or block.
  • Make sure the arrows on directional tires point in the direction of wheel rotation when driving forward. If the spare wheel must be fitted with its arrows pointing the opposite way, contact an authorised Ford Dealer to fit the tire in the correct direction.
  • Never carry out any work under a vehicle supported only by a jack.
  • Make sure the jack base sits flat on the ground and the jack is vertical relative to the jacking point.
  • CAUTION

    Do not place alloy wheels face down, as this will damage the paint.

    Note: The spare wheel is stored under the floor covering in the luggage compartment.
