the proper operation, safety and performance of

matters of day-to-day care that are also
important to the proper operation of your
vehicle. The recommended lubricants, fluids and
service parts conforming to Ford Specifications
are available from your dealer.
*
[BK00350(ALL)02/96]
This booklet gives you a place to record the

Maintenance: An investment
*
[BK00501(ALL)01/95]
An investment which will pay dividends in the
form of improved reliability, durability, and
resale value.
*
[BK00601(ALL)01/95]
To assure the durability of your vehicle and its
emission control systems, it is necessary that
scheduled maintenance be performed at the
designated intervals.
*
[BK00701(ALL)01/96]
Ford strongly recommends the use of genuine
Ford replacement parts. If other than Ford or
Motorcraft parts or Ford authorized
remanufactured parts are used for maintenance
replacements or for the service of components
affecting emission control, such non-Ford parts
should be equivalent to genuine Ford Motor
Company parts in performance and durability. It
is the owner’s responsibility to determine the
equivalency of such parts. Please consult your
warranty booklet for complete warranty
information.
