• Do not use alcohol, methanol,
brine or any engine coolants mixed
with alcohol or methanol
antifreeze (coolant). Alcohol and
other liquids can cause engine
damage from overheating or
freezing.
• Do not add extra inhibitors or
additives to the coolant. These can
be harmful and compromise the
corrosion protection of the engine
coolant.
Adding Engine Coolant
1. Unscrew the engine coolant
reservoir cap slowly. Any pressure
will escape as you unscrew the
cap.
2. Use a funnel to add prediluted
engine coolant to the engine
coolant reservoir. Make sure that
the level is between the MIN and
MAX marks on the engine coolant
reservoir. Use prediluted engine
coolant meeting the Ford
specification. See Capacities and
Specifications (page 331).
3. Close the engine coolant reservoir
cap.
Whenever you add coolant, check the
coolant level in the engine coolant
reservoir the next few times you drive
the vehicle. If necessary, add enough
prediluted engine coolant to bring the
engine coolant level to the proper
level.
Adding Inverter System
Controller Coolant
1. Open the inverter system
controller coolant reservoir cap.
2. Use a funnel to add prediluted
coolant to the inverter system
controller coolant reservoir. Make
sure that the level is between the
MIN and MAX marks on the
inverter system controller coolant
reservoir. Use prediluted coolant
meeting the Ford specification.
See Capacities and
Specifications (page 331).
3. Close the inverter system
controller coolant reservoir cap.
Whenever you add coolant, check the
coolant level in the inverter system
controller coolant reservoir the next
few times you drive the vehicle. If
necessary, add enough prediluted
coolant to bring the inverter system
controller coolant level to the proper
level.
Recycled Engine Coolant
Ford Motor Company does not
recommend the use of recycled
engine coolant since a Ford-approved
recycling process is not yet available.
Always dispose of used automotive
fluids in a responsible manner. Follow
your community’s regulations and
standards for recycling and disposing
of automotive fluids.
