FUEL CUT-OFF SWITCH

WARNING: Failure to inspect and if necessary repair fuel leaks
after a collision may increase the risk of fire and serious injury.

Ford Motor Company recommends that the fuel system be inspected by
an authorized dealer after any collision.

In the event of a moderate to severe collision, this vehicle is equipped
with a fuel pump shut-off feature that stops the flow of fuel to the
engine. Not every impact will cause a shut-off.

Should your vehicle shut off after a collision, you may restart your
vehicle by doing the following:

1. Turn the ignition off and wait approximately 10 seconds.

2. Turn the ignition on.

3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to re-enable the fuel pump.
