Maintenance and care 4. Use only a DOT 3 brake fluid certified to meet Ford specifications. Refer to Lubricant specifications in the Capacities and specifications chapter. Brake fluid is toxic. If brake fluid contacts the eyes, flush eyes with running water for 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if irritation persists. If taken internally, drink water and induce vomiting. Seek medical attention immediately. If you use a brake fluid that is not DOT 3, you will cause permanent damage to your brakes. Do not let the reservoir for the master cylinder run dry. This may cause the brakes to fail. CLUTCH ADJUSTMENT (IF EQUIPPED) Check the clutch adjustment. Refer to the scheduled maintenance guide for the service interval schedules. The clutch on your vehicle is operated by a cable. As necessary, adjust the clutch as described below. 1. Turn the engine off and shift into 1 (First). 2. Put your foot under the clutch pedal and gently pull it up until the pedal stops. 3. Push the clutch pedal down slowly. You will hear a click as the clutch adjusts itself. 156
