CHANGING THE ENGINE AIR
FILTER
WARNING
To reduce the risk of vehicle damage
and personal burn injuries, do not
start your engine with the air cleaner
removed and do not remove it while the
engine is running.
When changing the air filter element, use
only the air filter element listed. See
Motorcraft Parts (page 235).
On vehicles with an EcoBoost engine, when
servicing the air cleaner it is important that
no foreign material enters the air induction
system. The engine and turbocharger are
susceptible to damage from even small
particles.
Change the air filter element at the correct
interval. See Normal Scheduled
Maintenance (page 319).
Note: Failure to use the correct air filter
element may result in severe engine
damage. Your warranty may be void for any
damage to the engine if the correct air filter
element is not used.
Vehicles with 1.0L EcoBoost and 1.6L
