ESSENTIAL

INFORMATION

FEATURES

FUEL TYPE AND TANK CAPACITY

Your fuel tank can accommodate approximately

17.5 gallons (66.2 L) of gasoline. Your vehicle is

designed to use unleaded gasoline with an

(R+M)/2 octane rating of 87. Using gasoline

with a lower octane rating may degrade

performance.

TIRE PRESSURE

Your vehicle’s tire

pressure specifications are found on the

vehicle’s Safety Compliance Certification Label

located on the driver’s door jamb. Check your

tires for proper air pressure monthly; check the

air pressure in your spare tire every six months.

Always use an accurate tire pressure gauge.

Check the tire pressure when tires are cold,

after the vehicle has been parked for at least

three hours or has been driven less than three

miles. (As you drive, the temperature in the tire

warms up, increasing the tire pressure.)

Improperly inflated tires can affect vehicle

handling and can fail suddenly, resulting in a

possible loss of vehicle control.

Refer to the

Tires, Wheels and Loading chapter in the

Owner’s Guide for further information.

FUSES

If the vehicle’s electrical components

are not operating, a fuse may have blown. The

fuse panel is located below the instrument

panel on the driver’s side; remove the cover to

view the fuses. Additional fuses are located in

the power distribution box in the engine

compartment. For more information regarding

changing fuses, refer to the Roadside

Emergencies chapter of your Owner’s Guide.

FUEL PUMP SHUT-OFF SWITCH

The fuel pump shut-off switch stops the electric

fuel pump from sending fuel to your engine

when your vehicle has sustained a substantial

jolt. The switch is located in the passenger’s

footwell, by the kick panel. For more information

regarding the fuel pump shut-off switch, refer

to the Roadside Emergencies chapter of your

Owner’s Guide.

LOCATION OF SPARE TIRE AND

TOOLS

The spare tire and jack are located in

the trunk below the carpeted floor panel. The

necessary tools are contained in the tool bag.

For complete details on how to change your

tire, refer to the Roadside Emergencies chapter

in your Owner’s Guide.

your Ford Fusion’s 3-year/36,000 mile limited

program is included. Roadside assistance

includes such services as fuel delivery, tire

changes, jump starts, help when you are
