To make sure that the catalytic converter and the
other emission control parts continue to work
properly:
Use only premium unleaded fuel.
Avoid running out of fuel.
Do not turn off the ignition while your vehicle
is moving, especially at high speeds.
Do not push start your vehicle.
Have the services listed in the Maintenance
Schedule booklet performed according to the
specified schedule. The scheduled maintenance
services are required because they are
considered essential to the life and performance
of your vehicle and to its emissions system.
In general, maintenance, replacement, or service of
the emissions control devices or systems in your
new Ford Motor Company vehicle or engine may
be performed at your expense by any automotive
repair establishment or individual using automotive
parts equivalent to those which your vehicle or
engine was originally equipped.
Ford strongly recommends the use of genuine Ford
replacement parts. If other than Ford or Motorcraft
parts or Ford authorized remanufactured parts are
used for maintenance replacements or for the
service of components affecting emission control,
such non-Ford parts should be equivalent to genuine
Ford Motor Company parts in performance and
durability. It is the owner’s responsibility to
determine the equivalency of such parts. Please
consult your warranty booklet for complete
warranty information.
