If your engine coolant is green in color, use Ford
Premium Cooling System Fluid. If your engine
coolant is orange in color, use Ford Extended Life
Engine Coolant. Refer to Adding engine coolant, in
the Maintenance and Care chapter.

Service refill capacity is determined by filling the
transmission to the bottom of the filler hole with the
vehicle on a level surface.
3
Ensure correct automatic transmission fluid is used
for a specific application. Check the container to
verify the fluid is MERCONt and/or MERCONtV
approved. Some fluids have been approved as
meeting both MERCONt and MERCONtV
requirements and will be labeled as such. Fluids
labeled as meeting only MERCONt or only
MERCONtV requirements must not be used
interchangeably. DO NOT mix MERCONt and
MERCONtV. Transmission fluid requirements are
indicated on the dipstick or on the dipstick handle.
Refer to your Scheduled Maintenance Guide to
determine the correct service interval.
