Use the following guidelines to avoid electrostatic charge build-up when

filling an ungrounded fuel container:

• Place approved fuel container on the ground.

• DO NOT fill a fuel container while it is in the vehicle (including the

cargo area).

• Keep the fuel pump nozzle in contact with the fuel container while

filling.

• DO NOT use a device that would hold the fuel pump handle in the fill

position.

Fuel filler cap

Your fuel tank filler cap has an indexed design with a 1/4 turn on/off

feature.

When fueling your vehicle:

1. Turn the engine off.

2. Unlock the fuel filler door.

3. Carefully turn the filler cap

counterclockwise until it spins off.

4. Pull to remove the cap from the

fuel filler pipe.

5. To install the cap, align the tabs

on the cap with the notches on the

filler pipe.

6. Tighten the filler cap clockwise

until the cap clicks.

7. Lock the fuel filler door.

If the check fuel cap light

comes on, the fuel filler cap may not be

properly installed. The light can come on after several driving events

after you’ve refueled your vehicle.

If you must replace the fuel filler cap, replace it with a fuel filler

cap that is designed for your vehicle. The customer warranty may

be void for any damage to the fuel tank or fuel system if the

correct genuine Ford, Motorcraft威 or other certified fuel filler

cap is not used.
