Use Ford Premium Cooling System Fluid

E2FZ-19549-AA (in Canada, Motorcraft CXC-8-B) or

an equivalent premium engine coolant that meets

Ford specification ESE-M97B44-A. Ford Premium

Engine Coolant is an optimized formula that will

protect all metals and rubber elastomers used in

Ford cooling systems for 4 years or 50,000 miles

(80,000 km).

Do not use alcohol or methanol antifreeze or any

engine coolants mixed with alcohol or methanol

antifreeze. Do not use supplemental coolant

additives in your vehicle. These additives may harm

your engine cooling system. The use of an improper

coolant may void the warranty of your vehicle’s

engine cooling system.

Recycled engine coolant

Ford Motor Company recommends that Ford and

Lincoln-Mercury dealers use recycled engine coolant

produced by Ford-approved processes. Not all

coolant recycling processes produce coolant which

meets Ford specification ESE-M97B44-A, and use of

such coolant may harm engine and cooling system

components.

Always dispose of used automotive fluids in a

responsible manner. Follow your community’s

regulations and standards for recycling and disposing

of automotive fluids.

Coolant refill capacity

To find out how much fluid your vehicle’s cooling

system can hold, refer to Refill capacities in the

Capacities and specifications chapter.

Have your dealer check the engine cooling system

for leaks if you have to add more than a quart

(liter) of engine coolant per month.

Severe winter climate

If you drive in extremely cold climates (less than

-34˚F [-36˚C]), it may be necessary to increase the

coolant concentration above 50%. Refer to the chart

on the coolant container to ensure the coolant
