| Component or system | Lubricant/Specification |
| engine oil | All-weather motor oil, viscosity according to SAE classification 5W/30, 5W/40. 10W30 or 10W/40*, according to Ford WSS specification M2C912-A1, API SH or ACEA A1-96 |
| Manual transmission | Transmission oil (specification Ford WSD-M2C200B) |
| automatic transmission | Automatic transmission fluid (specification Ford ESP-M2C-166-H) |
| Steering | Automatic transmission fluid (specification Ford ESP-M2C-166-H) |
| Cooling system | Motorcraft Super Plus 4 antifreeze to Ford specification ESD-M97B49-A or Motorcraft Super Plus 2000 antifreeze to Ford specification WSS-M97B44-D |
| Brake system | Brake fluid according to Ford ESDM specification 6C57-A, Super DOT 4 |
*Note: Do not use an engine oil with a viscosity higher than specified as this may cause starting difficulties. Some oil additives can increase the viscosity of the oil and are therefore not recommended for use in these engines.
Engine oil selection
The engine needs oil not only to lubricate friction surfaces and reduce wear, but also to increase power and economy. Currently, the choice of oils is quite wide and allows you to choose the right grade for any engine.
How motor oil works
Friction Reduction: Without lubrication, the rubbing surfaces in the engine will heat up, melt and quickly render the engine unusable. The oil forms a layer that separates the rubbing surfaces, preventing them from wearing out and generating heat.
Hot zone cooling: The temperature inside the engine can exceed 1000°C. Oil, circulating in engine systems, acts as a coolant and transfers heat from heated zones to the sump.
Cleaning the internal surfaces of the engine: The oil washes away combustion products from the inner walls of the cylinders (mostly soot) and takes them to the filter. Only the smallest particles remain in the oil until it is changed.
Tire pressure
| Tire pressure (cold): | front | Behind |
| normal load (no more than three people | 2.1 bar | 2.1 bar |
| full load | 2.4 bar | 2.8 bar |
Note 1: The pressure indicated is for the tires supplied with the vehicle. It may vary depending on the tire brand, so check with the manufacturer or supplier for the correct value.
Note 2: When driving at speeds higher than 160 km/h, tire pressure should be increased. The corresponding values are indicated in the owner's manual supplied with the vehicle.
