CAUTIONSDo not switch autowipers on in dryweather conditions. The rain sensoris very sensitive and the wipers may

operate if dirt, mist or flies hit thewindscreen.

Replace thewiper blades as soon asthey begin to leave bands of waterand smears. If you do not replace

them, the rain sensor will continue todetect water on the windscreen and thewipers will operate, even though themajority of the windscreen is dry.

Fully defrost the windscreen in icyconditions before you switchautowipers on.

Switch autowipers off before youenter a car wash.

If you switch autowipers on after you haveswitched the ignition on, the wipers willcycle once regardless of whether thewindscreen is wet or dry. The rain sensorwill then continuously measure theamount of water on the windscreen andadjust the speed of the wipersautomatically.

PRINCIPLEOFOPERATION

Outside air

Keep the air intakes forward of thewindscreen free from obstruction (snow,leaves etc.) to allow the climate controlsystem to function effectively.

Recirculated air

CAUTION

Prolonged use of recirculated airmaycause the windows to mist up. If thewindows mist up, follow the settings

for defrosting and demisting thewindscreen.

The air currently in the passengercompartmentwill be recirculated. Outsideair will not enter the vehicle.

Heating

Heating performance depends on thetemperature of the engine coolant.

Air conditioning

Note: The air conditioning operates onlywhen the temperature is above 4ºC(39ºF).

Note: If you use the air conditioning, thefuel consumption of your vehicle will behigher.

Air is directed through the evaporatorwhere it is cooled. Humidity is extractedfrom the air to help keep thewindows freeof mist. The resulting condensation isdirected to the outside of the vehicle andit is therefore normal if you see a smallpool of water under your vehicle.

General information oncontrolling the interior climate

Fully close all the windows.

Warming the interior

Direct the air towards your feet. In cold orhumid weather conditions, direct someof the air towards thewindscreen and thedoor windows.

AUXILIARYHEATER

General information

WARNINGSDo not operate the programmablefuel fired heater at filling stations,near sources of combustible

vapours or dust or in enclosed spaces.

Do not refuel when theprogrammable fuel fired heaterdisplay is on.

Note: The programmable fuel firedheater will switch off automatically whenthe battery voltage is low.

Note: All symbols on the display will flashif the power to the programmable fuelfired heater has been interrupted. Theheater will not operate under thesecircumstances. Re-set the clock time.

Note: The programmable fuel firedheater will shut down in the event of amalfunction. Have the system checkedby an expert.

Observe the following information:

• Switch the programmable fuel firedheater on for approximately 10minutes at least once amonth, all yearround. This prevents the water pumpand heater motor from seizing.

• To avoid corrosion, make sure thecoolant in your vehicle contains atleast 10 % antifreeze all year round.

• Make sure the coolant level isbetween theMAX andMINmarkson the reservoir to prevent air locks.See Engine coolant check (page128).

63

Climate control

Page 66: Ford transit owner manuals  European removals company man and van removals Europe

• Programmable blower operationbegins when the coolant reaches acertain temperature. In this mode,ambient temperature has no effect.

• In continuous heater operation, theunit senses the ambient temperature.If this is above 5°C (41°F) theprogrammable fuel fired heater heaterwill not activate.

The programmable fuel fired heateroperates independently of the vehicleheater by heating the engine’s coolantcircuit. It is fed from the vehicle fuel tank.It may also be used while the vehicle is inmotion to help the vehicle heater warmup the interior more quickly.

It is possible thatwhen the programmablefuel fired heater is activated, exhaustfumes may come from under the sidesof the vehicle. This is normal.

Principle of operation

Before operation

CAUTION

Turning the blower switch to aposition other than position one willreduce battery life or even flatten the

battery.

Before activating or programming theheater, prepare the following settings:

• Set the vehicle heater temperaturecontrol to maximum.

• Turn the blower switch to position one.

• Switch on the recirculated air beforeturning the ignition off. Wait at leastfive seconds for the ventilation systemto close the outside air vents.

DIESELPARTICULATEFILTER (DPF)

The DPF forms part of the emissionsreduction systems fitted to your vehicle.It filters harmful diesel particulates (soot)from the exhaust gas.

Regeneration

WARNING

Do not park or idle your vehicle overdry leaves, dry grass or othercombustible materials. The DPF

regeneration process creates very highexhaust gas temperatures and theexhaust will radiate a considerableamount of heat during and after DPFregeneration, andafter youhave switchedthe engine off. This is a potential firehazard.

CAUTION

Avoid running out of fuel.

Note: After you have switched yourengine off the fans may continue to runfor a short period of time.

Unlike a normal filter which requiresperiodic replacement, the DPF has beendesigned to regenerate, or clean itself tomaintain operating efficiency. Theregeneration process takes placeautomatically. However, some drivingconditions mean that you may need tosupport the regeneration process.

If you drive only short distances or yourjourneys contain frequent stopping andstarting, where there is increasedacceleration and deceleration, occasionaltrips with the following conditions couldassist the regeneration process:

• Drive your vehicle at a constant speed,preferably on a main road ormotorway, for up to 20 minutes.

• Avoid prolonged idling and alwaysobserve speed limits and roadconditions.

• Do not switch off the ignition.

• Use a lower gear than normal tomaintain a higher engine speedduringthis journey, where appropriate.

SWITCHINGOFF THEENGINE

Vehicleswith a turbocharger

CAUTION

Do not switch the engine off when itis running at high speed. If you do,the turbocharger will continue

running after the engine oil pressure hasdropped to zero. This will lead topremature turbocharger bearing wear.

Release the accelerator pedal. Wait untilthe engine has reached idle speed andthen switch it off.

SAFETYPRECAUTIONS

WARNINGSStop refuelling after the fuel nozzlestops the second time. Additionalfuel will fill the expansion space in

the fuel tank which could lead to fueloverflowing. Fuel spillage could behazardous to other road users.

Do not use any kind of flames orheat near the fuel system. The fuelsystem is under pressure. There is

a risk of injury if the fuel system is leaking.

FUELQUALITY - PETROL

CAUTION

Do not use leaded petrol or petrolwith additives containing othermetallic compounds (e.g.

manganese-based). They could damagethe emission system.

Note:We recommend that you use onlyhigh quality fuel without additives or otherengine treatments.

Useminimum95octane unleadedpetrol thatmeets the specification definedby EN228, or equivalent.

FUELQUALITY - DIESEL

WARNING

Do not mix diesel with oil, petrol orother liquids. This could cause achemical reaction.

CAUTIONSDo not add kerosene, paraffin orpetrol to diesel. This could causedamage to the fuel system.

CAUTIONSUse diesel that meets thespecification defined by EN590, orthe relevant national specification.

Note:We recommend that you use onlyhigh quality fuel.

Note: The use of additives or otherengine treatments not approved by Fordis not recommended.

Note:We do not recommend theprolonged use of additives intended toprevent fuel waxing.

Long-termstorage

Most diesel fuels contain bio-diesel, it isrecommended to fill the tank with purelymineral diesel (where available) or add ananti-oxidant prior to long-term storage ofyour vehicle exceeding twomonths. Yourdealer can help you with a suitableanti-oxidant.

CATALYTICCONVERTER

WARNING

Do not park or idle your vehicle overdry leaves, dry grass or othercombustiblematerials. The exhaust

will radiate a considerable amount of heatduring use, and after you have switchedthe engine off. This is a potential firehazard.

PRINCIPLEOFOPERATION

The system makes it easier to pull awaywhen the vehicle is on a slopewithout theneed to use the parking brake.

When the system is active, the vehiclewillremain stationary on the slope for a shorttime after you release the brake pedal.During this time, you have time to moveyour foot from the brake to theaccelerator pedal and pull away. Thebrakes are released automatically oncethe engine has developed sufficient driveto prevent the vehicle from rolling downthe slope. This is an advantage whenpulling away on a slope, for example froma car park ramp, traffic lights or whenreversing uphill into a parking space.

WARNING

The system does not replace theparking brake. When you leave thevehicle, always apply the parking

brake and select first or reverse gear.

USINGHILL STARTASSIST

The system is activated automaticallywhen the vehicle is stopped on a slopegreater than 3%. The system operateswith the vehicle facing downhill if reversegear is selected and with the vehiclefacing uphill if any forward gear isselected.

Activating the system

WARNINGSYoumust remain in the vehicle onceyou have activated the system.

The system is active only if thegreen lamp illuminates in theinstrument cluster. During all times

you are responsible for controlling thevehicle, supervising the system andintervening, if required.

You can activate the system only if thefollowing conditions have been met:

• The engine is running.

• All doors (including cargo doors) arefully closed.

• The parking brake is fully disengaged.

• No failure mode is present.

To activate the system:

1. Press the brake and clutch pedals tobring the vehicle to a completestandstill. Keep the brake and clutchpedals depressed.

2. If the sensors detect that the vehicleis on a slope the system will beactivated automatically and the greenlamp will illuminate in the instrumentcluster.

3. When you remove your foot from thebrake pedal, the vehicle will remain onthe slope without rolling away forapproximately two to three seconds.This hold time will automatically beextended if you are in the process ofdriving off.

4. Drive off in the normal manner. Thebrakes will be released automatically.

WARNING

If the engine is revved excessively,or if a malfunction is detectedwhenthe system is active, the systemwill

be deactivated and the green lamp willgo out.

Deactivating the system

To deactivate the system, perform oneof the following:

• Apply the parking brake.

• Open any door (including cargodoors).

• Drive off uphill without re-applying thebrake.

Your vehicle can be driven briefly if theengine overheats, without damage to theengine. The engine will continue tooperate with limited power. The distanceyou can travel depends on ambienttemperature, vehicle load, and terrain.

If the needle moves to the upper limitposition, the engine is overheating. SeeGauges (page 46).

If the temperature continues to rise, thefuel supply to the engine will be reduced.The air conditioning (if fitted) will also beturned off and the engine cooling fan willoperate.

CAUTION

Continued operationwill increase theengine temperature, and cause theengine to shut down completely.

• Stop your vehicle as soon as possible.

• Immediately turn off the engine toprevent severe engine damage.

• Wait for the engine to cool down.

• Check the coolant level. SeeEnginecoolant check (page 128).

• Have the vehicle checked by anexpert immediately.

General information

WARNINGSDepending on the type and extentof tyre damage, some tyres canonly be partially sealed or not sealed

at all. Loss of tyre pressure can affectvehicle handling, leading to loss of vehiclecontrol.

Do not use the tyre repair kit if thetyre has already been damaged asa result of being driven under

inflated.

Do not use the tyre repair kit on runflat tyres.

Do not try to seal damage otherthan that located within the visibletread of the tyre.

Do not try to seal damage to thetyre’s sidewall.

The tyre repair kit seals most tyrepunctures [with a diameter of up to sixmillimetres (1/4 inch)] to temporarilyrestore mobility.

Observe the following rules when usingthe kit:

• Drivewith caution and avoidmaking sudden steering ordrivingmanoeuvres, especially ifthe vehicle is heavily loaded or you aretowing a trailer.

• The kit will provide you with anemergency temporary repair, enablingyou to continue your journey to thenext vehicle or tyre dealer, or to drivea maximum distance of200 kilometres (125 miles).

• Do not exceed amaximumspeedof 80 km/h (50mph).

151

Wheels and tyres

• Keep the kit out of the reach ofchildren.

• Only use the kit when the ambienttemperature is between –30°C (-22°F)and +70°C (+158°F).

Using the tyre repair kit

WARNINGSCompressed air can act as anexplosive or propellant.

Never leave the tyre repair kitunattended while in use.

CAUTION

Do not keep the compressoroperating for more than 10 minutes.

Note: Use the tyre repair kit only for thevehicle with which it was supplied.

• Park your vehicle at the roadside sothat you do not obstruct the flow oftraffic and so that you are able to usethe kit without being in danger.

• Apply the parking brake, even if youhave parked on a level road, to makesure that the vehicle will not move.

• Do not attempt to remove foreignobjects like nails or screwspenetratingthe tyre.

• Leave the engine running while the kitis in use, but not if the vehicle is in anenclosed or poorly ventilated area (forexample, inside a building). In thesecircumstances, switch thecompressor onwith the engine turnedoff.

• Replace the sealant bottle with a newone before the expiry date (see topof bottle) is reached.

• Inform all other users of the vehiclethat the tyre has been temporarilysealed with the tyre repair kit andmake them aware of the specialdriving conditions to be observed.

Inflating the tyre

WARNINGSCheck the sidewall of the tyre priorto inflation. If there are any cracks,bumps or similar damage, do not

attempt to inflate the tyre.

Do not stand directly beside the tyrewhile the compressor is pumping.

Watch the sidewall of the tyre. If anycracks, bumps or similar damageappear, turn off the compressor and

let the air out by means of the pressurerelief valveB. Do not continue drivingwiththis tyre.

The sealant contains natural rubberlatex. Avoid contact with skin andclothing. If this happens, rinse the

affected areas immediately with plenty ofwater and contact your doctor.

If the tyre inflation pressure does notreach 1.8 bar (26 psi) within sevenminutes, the tyremay have suffered

excessive damage, making a temporaryrepair impossible. In this case, do notcontinue driving with this tyre.

CAUTION

Screwing the bottle onto the bottleholder will pierce the seal of thebottle. Do not unscrew the bottle

from the holder as the sealantwill escape.
