OPTIONAL MESSAGE CENTER (IF EQUIPPED)

WARNING: Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle
control, accident and injury. Ford strongly recommends that

drivers use extreme caution when using any device or feature that may
take their focus off the road. Your primary responsibility is the safe
operation of the vehicle. We recommend against the use of any handheld
device while driving and that you comply with all applicable laws.

Your vehicle’s message center is capable of monitoring many vehicle
systems and will alert you to potential vehicle problems and various
conditions with informational messages and/or warnings.

The message center is also used to program/configure the different
features of your vehicle.

The message center display is located in the instrument cluster.

Use the left steering wheel controls to navigate through the message center.
