CHANGING THE ENGINE AIR
FILTER - 2.0L ECOBOOST™

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of

vehicle damage and personal burn
injuries, do not start your engine with the
air cleaner removed and do not remove
it while the engine is running.

When changing the air filter element, use
only parts that meet or exceed our
specifications.

For EcoBoost equipped vehicles: When
servicing the air cleaner, it is important that
no foreign material enter the air induction
system. The engine and turbocharger are
susceptible to damage from even small
particles.

Change the air filter element at the proper
interval. See

Scheduled Maintenance

(page 436).

Note:

Failure to use the correct air filter

element may result in severe engine
damage. The customer warranty may be
void for any damage to the engine if the
correct air filter element is not used.

CHANGING THE 12V BATTERY

WARNING:

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.

WARNING:

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.

WARNING:

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.

WARNING:

Battery posts,

terminals and related accessories
contain lead and lead compounds,
chemicals known to the State of
California to cause cancer and
reproductive harm.

Wash your hands

after handling

WARNING:

This vehicle may have

more than one battery. Removing the
battery cables from only one battery
does not disconnect your vehicle
electrical system. Make sure you
disconnect the battery cables from all
batteries when disconnecting power.
Failure to do so may cause serious
personal injury or property damage.

WARNING:

For vehicles with

Auto-Start-Stop the battery requirement
is different. You must replace the battery
with one of exactly the same
specification.

The battery is in the engine compartment.
See

Under Hood Overview

(page 301).

Your vehicle has a maintenance-free
battery. It does not require additional
water during service.

If the vehicle battery has a cover and vent
hose, make sure you correctly install it after
cleaning or replacing the battery.

310

Maintenance

For longer, trouble-free operation, keep the
top of the battery clean and dry and the
battery cables tightly fastened to the
battery terminals. If any corrosion is
present 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.

We recommend that you disconnect the
negative battery cable terminal from the
battery if you plan to store your vehicle for
an extended period.

Note:

If you only disconnect the negative

battery cable terminal, make sure it is
isolated or placed away from the battery
terminal to avoid unintended connection or
arcing.

If you replace the battery make sure it
matches the electrical requirements of
your vehicle.

If you disconnect or replace the battery
and your vehicle has an automatic
transmission, it must relearn its adaptive
strategy. Because of this, the transmission
may shift firmly when first driven. This is
normal operation while the transmission
fully updates its operation to optimum
shift feel.

Battery Sensor Reset

When you install a new battery, reset the
battery sensor by doing the following:

Switch the ignition on, and leave the
engine off.

Note:

Complete Steps 2 and 3 within 10

seconds.

2. Flash the high beam headlamps five

times, ending with the high beams off.

3. Press and release the brake pedal three

times.

The battery warning lamp flashes three
times to confirm that the reset is
successful.

Battery Management System

(If

Equipped)

The system monitors battery conditions
and takes actions to extend battery life. If
excessive battery drain is detected, the
system temporarily disables some
electrical systems to protect the battery.

Systems included are:
•

Heated rear window.

•

Heated seats.

•

Climate control.

•

Heated steering wheel.

•

Audio unit.

•

Navigation system.

A message may appear in the information
display to alert you that battery protection
actions are active. This message is only for
notification that an action is taking place,
and not intended to indicate an electrical
problem or that the battery requires
replacement.

After battery replacement, or in some
cases after charging the battery with an
external charger, the battery management
system requires eight hours of vehicle sleep
time to relearn the battery state of charge.
During this time, your vehicle must remain
fully locked with the ignition switched off.

Note:

Prior to relearning the battery state

of charge, the battery management system
may temporarily disable some electrical
systems.

311

Maintenance

Electrical Accessory Installation

To make sure the battery management
system works correctly, do not connect an
electrical device ground connection
directly to the battery negative post. This
can cause inaccurate measurements of
the battery condition and potential
incorrect system operation.

Note:

If you add electrical accessories or

components to the vehicle, it may adversely
affect battery performance and durability.
This may also affect the performance of
other electrical systems in the vehicle.

Remove and Reinstall the Battery

Install a battery approved for use by our
specifications. See

Capacities and

Specifications

(page 355).

To disconnect or remove the battery, do
the following:

Apply the parking brake and switch the

example lights and radio.

3. Wait a minimum of two minutes before

disconnecting the battery.

Note:

The engine management system has

a power hold function and remains powered
for a period of time after you switch the
ignition off. This is to allow the system to
store diagnostic and adaptive tables.
Disconnecting the battery without waiting
can cause damage not covered by the
vehicle warranty.

4. Disconnect the negative battery cable

terminal.

5. Disconnect the positive battery cable

terminal.

6. Remove the battery securing clamp.
