WARNINGS
Continuous contact with used motor
oil has caused cancer in laboratory
mice. Protect your skin by washing
with soap and water.
If your vehicle is equipped with a diesel
engine, an Intelligent Oil Life Monitor
calculates the proper oil change service
interval. When the information display
indicates: OIL CHANGE REQUIRED, change
the engine oil and oil filter. See
Information Displays (page 111).
The engine oil filter protects your engine
by filtering harmful, abrasive or sludge
particles and particles significantly smaller
than most available will-fit filters. See
Motorcraft Parts (page 414).
1. Unscrew the oil filter and oil pan drain
plug and wait for the oil to drain.
2. Replace the filter.
3. Reinstall the oil pan drain plug.
4. Refill the engine with new oil. See
Capacities and Specifications (page
428).
5. For diesel engines, you need to reset
the Intelligent Oil Life Monitor. See
Information Displays (page 111).

CHANGING THE COALESCER

WARNING
Do not dispose of engine oil or oil
filters in the household refuse or the
public sewage system. Use an
authorized waste disposal facility.

whenever your vehicle requires scheduled
maintenance or repair. Use the correct
specification filter element. See
