3 Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.
4 If equipped with auxiliary rear heater, add an additional 1.4 L (1.5
quarts).
5 Ensure the correct automatic transmission fluid is used. Transmission
fluid requirements are indicated on the end of the dipstick. Check the
container to verify the fluid being added is of the correct type. Refer to
your Scheduled Maintenance Guide to determine the correct service
interval.
Some transmission fluids may be labeled as dual usage, such as
MERCON
௡ and MERCON௡ V. These dual usage fluids are not to be used
in an automatic transmission that requires use of the MERCON
௡ type
fluid. However, these dual usage fluids may be used in transmissions that
require the MERCON
௡ V type fluid.
MERCON
௡, MERCON௡ V and MERCON௡ SP are not
interchangeable. DO NOT mix MERCON
௡, MERCON௡ V and
MERCON
௡ SP. Use of dual usage fluids in an automatic
transmission application requiring MERCON
௡ SP may cause
transmission damage. Use of a transmission fluid other than the
recommended fluid may cause transmission damage.
6 Indicates only approximate dry-fill capacity. Some applications may vary
based on cooler size and if equipped with an in-tank cooler. The amount
of transmission fluid and fluid level should be set by the indication on
the dipstick’s normal operating range.
7 Use of synthetic or synthetic blend motor oil is not mandatory. Engine
oil need only meet the requirements of Ford specification
WSS-M2C930-A and the API Certification mark.
