    							Adding Transmission Fluid
    *
    1. Rotate the automatic transmission fluid cap in a counterclockwise
    direction. *
    2. Remove the cap and dipstick and wipe
    it with a clean, lint-free cloth.
    3. Add fluid that meets the Ford specifications.  See Capacities and
    Specifications (page 340).  Pour the
    fluid directly into the automatic
    transmission fluid cap and dipstick
    hole.
    4. Replace the cap and dipstick and remove it again to check the fluid level.
    5. Make sure that the fluid level is between the MIN and the MAX marks.
    6. Replace the automatic transmission fluid cap and dipstick. Turn it clockwise
    until you feel a strong resistance.

    							WASHER FLUID CHECK
    WARNING
    If you operate your vehicle in
    temperatures below 40°F (5°C), use
    washer fluid with antifreeze
    protection. Failure to use washer fluid with
    antifreeze protection in cold weather could
    result in impaired windshield vision and
    increase the risk of injury or accident. Add fluid to fill the reservoir if the level is
    low. Only use a washer fluid that meets
    Ford specifications.  See Capacities and
    Specifications (page 321).
    State or local regulations on volatile
    organic compounds may restrict the use
    of methanol, a common windshield washer
    antifreeze additive. Washer fluids
    containing non-methanol antifreeze
    agents should be used only if they provide
    cold weather protection without damaging
    the vehicle ’s paint finish, wiper blades or
    washer system.
    CHANGING THE 12V BATTERY WARNINGS
    Batteries normally produce explosive
    gases which can cause personal
    injury. Therefore, do not allow
    flames, sparks or lighted substances to
    come near the battery. When working near
    the battery, always shield your face and
    protect your eyes. Always provide correct
    ventilation. When lifting a plastic-cased battery,
    excessive pressure on the end walls
    could cause acid to flow through the
    vent caps, resulting in personal injury and
    damage to the vehicle or battery. Lift the
    battery with a battery carrier or with your
    hands on opposite corners. WARNINGS
    Keep batteries out of reach of
    children. Batteries contain sulfuric
    acid. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or
    clothing. Shield your eyes when working
    near the battery to protect against possible
    splashing of acid solution. In case of acid
    contact with skin or eyes, flush
    immediately with water for a minimum of
    15 minutes and get prompt medical
    attention. If acid is swallowed, call a
    physician immediately. Battery posts, terminals and related
    accessories contain lead and lead
    compounds. Wash hands after
    handling. Your vehicle has a Motorcraft®
    maintenance-free battery which normally
    does not require additional water during
    its life of service.
    Note:
    If your vehicle's battery has a cover
    or shield, make sure it is reinstalled after the
    battery has been cleaned or replaced.
    Note: See an authorized dealer for low
    voltage battery access, testing, or
    replacement.
    When a low voltage battery replacement
    is necessary, see an authorized dealer to
    replace the low voltage battery with a Ford
    recommended replacement low voltage
    battery that matches the electrical
    requirements of the vehicle.
    To ensure proper operation of the battery
    management system (BMS), do not allow
    a technician to connect any electrical
    device ground connection directly to the
    low voltage battery negative post. A
    connection at the low voltage battery
    negative post can cause inaccurate
    measurements of the battery condition
    and potential incorrect system operation.
    269
    Fusion (CC7) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, First Printing Maintenance 
    						
    							Note:
    If a person adds electrical or
    electronic accessories or components to the
    vehicle, the accessories or components may
    adversely affect the low voltage battery
    performance and durability and may also
    affect the performance of other electrical
    systems in the vehicle.
    For longer, trouble-free operation, keep the
    top of the battery clean and dry. Also,
    make certain the battery cables are always
    tightly fastened to the battery terminals.
    If you see any corrosion on the battery or
    terminals, remove the cables from the
    terminals and clean with a wire brush. You
    can neutralize the acid with a solution of
    baking soda and water.
    When a battery replacement is required,
    the battery should only be replaced with
    a Ford recommended replacement battery
    that matches the electrical requirements
    of the vehicle.
    Because your vehicle ’s engine is
    electronically-controlled by a computer,
    some engine control settings are
    maintained by power from the low voltage
    battery. Some engine computer settings,
    like the idle trim and fuel trim strategy,
    optimize the driveability and performance
    of the engine. Some other computer
    settings, like the clock and radio station
    presets, are also maintained in memory by
    power from the low voltage battery. When
    a technician disconnects and connects the
    low voltage battery, these settings are
    erased. Complete the following procedure
    in order to restore the settings:
    1. With the vehicle at a complete stop, set the parking brake.
    2. Shift into park (P).
    3. Switch off all accessories.
    4. Fully press the brake pedal and start the vehicle. 5. Run the engine until it reaches normal
    operating temperature. While the
    engine is warming up, complete the
    following: Reset the clock.  See Audio
    System (page 345).  Reset the power
    windows bounce-back feature.  See
    Windows and Mirrors
     (page 81).
    Reset the radio station presets.  See
    Audio System
     (page 345).
    6. Allow the engine to idle for at least one
    minute. If the engine turns off, press
    the accelerator pedal to start the
    engine.
    7. While the engine is running, press the brake pedal and shift into neutral (N).
    8. Allow the engine to run for at least one
    minute by pressing on the accelerator
    pedal.
    9. Drive the vehicle at least 12 mi (20 km)
    to completely relearn the idle and fuel
    trim strategy.
    Note: If you do not allow the engine to
    relearn the idle and fuel trim strategy, the
    idle quality of your vehicle may be adversely
    affected until the engine computer
    eventually relearns the idle trim and fuel
    trim strategy.
    Make sure that you dispose of old batteries
    in an environmentally friendly way.  Seek
    advice from your local authority about
    recycling old batteries.
    CHECKING THE WIPER
    BLADES 270
    Fusion (CC7) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, First Printing MaintenanceE142463  
    						
    							Run the tip of your fingers over the edge of
    the blade to check for roughness.
    Clean the wiper blades with washer fluid
    or water applied with a soft sponge or
    cloth.
    CHANGING THE WIPER
    BLADES
    The wiper arms can be manually moved
    when the ignition is off. This allows for ease
    of blade replacement and cleaning under
    the blades.
    1. Pull the wiper blade and arm away
    from the glass. Press the locking
    buttons together.
    2. Rotate and remove the wiper blade.
    3. Install in the reverse order.
    Note: Make sure that the wiper blade locks
    into place. Lower the wiper arm and blade
    back to the windshield. The wiper arms will
    automatically return to their normal position
    when the ignition is turned on.
    Replace wiper blades at least once per
    year for optimum performance.
    Poor wiper quality can be improved by
    cleaning the wiper blades and the
    windshield. ADJUSTING THE HEADLAMPS
    Vertical Aim Adjustment
    The headlamps on your vehicle are
    properly aimed at the assembly plant. If
    your vehicle has been in an accident, the
    alignment of your headlamps should be
    checked by your authorized dealer.

    							3. Turn on the low beam headlamps to
    illuminate the wall or screen and open
    the hood. 4. On the wall or screen you will observe
    a flat zone of high intensity light
    located at the top of the right hand
    portion of the beam pattern. If the top
    edge of the high intensity light zone is
    not at the horizontal reference line, the
    headlamp will need to be adjusted. 5. Locate the vertical adjuster on each
    headlamp. Using a Phillips #2
    screwdriver, turn the adjuster either
    clockwise or counterclockwise in order
    to adjust the vertical aim of the
    headlamp. The horizontal edge of the
    brighter light should touch the
    horizontal reference line.
    6. Close the hood and turn off the lamps.
    Horizontal Aim Adjustment
    Horizontal aim is not required for this
    vehicle and is not adjustable.
