When changing the air filter element, use only the air filter element
listed. Refer to Motorcraft

part numbers in the Capacities and

Specifications chapter.

Refer to Scheduled Maintenance for the appropriate intervals for
changing the air filter element.

Note: Failure to use the correct air filter element may result in severe
engine damage. The customer warranty may be void for any damage to
the engine if the correct air filter element is not used.

Changing the Air Filter Element

1. Release the clamps that secure
the air filter housing cover.

2. Carefully separate the two halves
of the air filter housing.

3. Remove the air filter element
from the air filter housing.

4. Wipe the air filter housing and
cover clean to remove any dirt or
debris and to ensure good sealing.

5. Install a new air filter element. Be careful not to crimp the filter
element edges between the air filter housing and cover. This could cause
filter damage and allow unfiltered air to enter the engine if not properly
seated.

6. Replace the air filter housing cover and secure the clamps. Be sure
that the air cleaner cover tabs are engaged into the slots of the air
cleaner housing.

ADJUSTING THE HEADLAMPS

The headlamps on your vehicle are properly aimed at the assembly plant.
If your vehicle has been in an accident, the alignment of your headlamps
should be checked by your authorized dealer.

Vertical Aim Adjustment

1. Park the vehicle directly in front of a wall or screen on a level surface,
approximately 25 feet (7.6 meters) away.
