The mobility kit contains an air compressor to re-inflate the tire and a sealing compound that will seal most punctures caused by nails or similar objects. Do not attempt to repair large punctures or damage to the tire's sidewall. The mobility kit provides a temporary seal allowing you to drive up to 120 miles at a maximum speed of 50 mph. After sealant use, the TPMS sensor and valve stem on the wheel must be replaced by an authorized Ford dealer. For vehicles with a spare tire, refer to the Changing a Road Wheel section in the Wheels and Tires chapter of your Owner's Manual. SOS Post-Crash Alert System™ Provides audible and visual alarms when a crash causes the deployment of airbags or the activation of the safety belt pretensioners. The turn signals will flash and the horn will sound. To deactivate, press the hazard flasher control on the instrument panel or the panic button on your remote entry transmitter*. Tire Pressure Monitoring System Your vehicle illuminates a low tire pressure warning light in your instrument cluster when one or more of your tires is significantly underinflated. If this happens stop and check your tires as soon as possible. Inflate them to the proper pressure. Refer to the Inflating Your Tires section in the Wheels and Tires chapter of your Owner's Manual for more information. Fuel-Efficient Transmission Your vehicle has been designed to improve fuel economy by reducing fuel usage while coasting or decelerating. This may be perceived as a light to medium braking sensation when removing your foot from the accelerator pedal. Folding rear seat(s) with adjustable head restraints The rear seat backs can be folded down for more cargo space. To do this; make sure the adjustable rear head restraints are in the lowest position. Press and hold the release button on the seat back and fold the seat back down. When raising the seat back(s), make sure you hear the seat latch into place. Pull down on the seat back to make sure it has latched. Tilting Head Restraints* Your vehicle's front-row head restraints can be adjusted. Pull up to raise the head restraint. To lower, press the head restraint down while pressing and holding the guide sleeve adjust/release button.
