ABOUT THIS MANUAL
Thank you for choosing Ford. We
recommend that you take some time to
get to know your vehicle by reading this
manual. The more that you know about it,
the greater the safety and pleasure you
will get from driving it.
WARNING
Driving while distracted can result in
loss of vehicle control, crash and
injury. We strongly recommend that
you use extreme caution when using any
device that may take your focus off the
road. Your primary responsibility is the safe
operation of your vehicle. We recommend
against the use of any handheld device
while driving and encourage the use of
voice-operated systems when possible.
Make sure you are aware of all applicable
local laws that may affect the use of
electronic devices while driving.

Protecting the Environment
You must play your part in protecting the
environment. Correct vehicle usage and
the authorized disposal of waste, cleaning
and lubrication materials are significant
steps toward this aim.
Note: This manual describes product
features and options available throughout
the range of available models, sometimes
even before they are generally available. It
may describe options not fitted to your
vehicle.
SYMBOLS GLOSSARY
These are some of the symbols you may
see on your vehicle.
Safety alert
Note: Some of the illustrations in this
manual may be used for different models,
so may appear different to you on your
vehicle. However, the essential information
in the illustrations is always correct.
See Owner's Manual

in line with all applicable laws and
regulations.

REPLACEMENT PARTS
RECOMMENDATION
Note operating instructions
Your vehicle has been built to the highest
standards using quality parts. We
recommend that you demand the use of
genuine Ford and Motorcraft parts
whenever your vehicle requires scheduled
maintenance or repair. You can clearly
identify genuine Ford and Motorcraft parts
by looking for the Ford, FoMoCo or
Motorcraft branding on the parts or their
packaging.

Scheduled Maintenance and
Mechanical Repairs
Power steering fluid
One of the best ways for you to make sure
that your vehicle provides years of service
is to have it maintained in line with our
recommendations using parts that
conform to the specifications detailed in
this Owner’s Manual. Genuine Ford and
Motorcraft parts meet or exceed these
specifications.

Collision Repairs
Service engine soon
We hope that you never experience a
collision, but accidents do happen. Genuine
Ford replacement collision parts meet our
stringent requirements for fit, finish,
structural integrity, corrosion protection
and dent resistance. During vehicle
development we validate these parts
deliver the intended level of protection as
a whole system. A great way to know for
sure you are getting this level of protection
is to use genuine Ford replacement
collision parts.

Introduction
Warranty on Replacement Parts
Genuine Ford and Motorcraft replacement
parts are the only replacement parts that
benefit from a Ford Warranty. Damage
caused to your vehicle as a result of the
failure of non-Ford parts may not be
covered by the Ford Warranty. For
additional information, refer to the terms
and conditions of the Ford Warranty.
MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS
EQUIPMENT
Using mobile communications equipment
is becoming increasingly important in the
conduct of business and personal affairs.
However, you must not compromise your
own or others’ safety when using such
equipment. Mobile communications can
enhance personal safety and security when
appropriately used, particularly in
emergency situations. Safety must be
paramount when using mobile
communications equipment to avoid
negating these benefits. Mobile
communication equipment includes, but
is not limited to, cellular phones, pagers,
portable email devices, text messaging
devices and portable two-way radios.
WARNING
Driving while distracted can result in
loss of vehicle control, crash and
injury. We strongly recommend that
you use extreme caution when using any
device that may take your focus off the
road. Your primary responsibility is the safe
operation of your vehicle. We recommend
against the use of any hand-held device
while driving and encourage the use of
voice-operated systems when possible.
Make sure you are aware of all applicable
local laws that may affect the use of
electronic devices while driving.

Child Safety
INSTALLING CHILD SEATS
WARNINGS
If your vehicle has been involved in a
crash, have the child seats checked
by an authorized dealer.
Note: Mandatory use of child seats varies
from country to country.
Only child seats certified to ECE-R44.03
(or later) have been tested and approved
for use in your vehicle. A choice of these
are available from an authorized dealer.
Child Seats for Different Mass
Groups
Use the correct child seat as follows:
Baby Safety Seat
WARNINGS
Use an approved child seat to secure
children less than 59 inches (150
centimeters) tall in the rear seat.
Extreme Hazard! Do not use a
rearward facing child seat on a seat
protected by an air bag in front of it!
Secure children that weigh less than 29
pounds (13 kilograms) in a rearward facing
baby safety seat (Group 0+) on the rear
seat.
Read and follow the manufacturer’s
instructions when you are installing
a child seat.
Do not modify child seats in any way.
Do not hold a child on your lap when
your vehicle is moving.
Do not leave unattended children in
your vehicle.

Child Safety
Child Safety Seat
Booster Seat (Group 2)
Secure children that weigh between 29
and 40 pounds (13 and 18 kilograms) in a
child safety seat (Group 1) on the rear seat.
Secure children that weigh more than 33
pounds (15 kilograms) but are less than 59
inches (150 centimeters) tall in a booster
seat or a booster cushion.
Booster Seats
We recommend that you use a booster
seat that combines a cushion with a
backrest instead of a booster cushion only.
The raised seating position will allow you
to position the shoulder strap of the adult
safety belt over the center of your child’s
shoulder and the lap strap tightly across
their hips.
WARNINGS
Do not install a booster seat or a
booster cushion with only the lap
strap of the safety belt.
Do not install a booster seat or a
booster cushion with a safety belt
that is slack or twisted.
Booster Cushion (Group 3)
Do not put the safety belt under your
child’s arm or behind their back.
Do not use pillows, books or towels
to boost your child’s height.
Make sure that your children sit in an
upright position.
Note: When using a child seat on a rear
seat, make sure that the child seat rests
tightly against the vehicle seat. It may be
necessary to lift or remove the head
restraint. See Head Restraints (page 83).

ISOFIX Anchor Points
Attaching a Child Seat with Top
Tethers
WARNING
WARNINGS
Do not attach a tether strap to
anything other than the correct
tether anchor point.
Use an anti-rotation device when
using the ISOFIX system. We
recommend the use of a top tether
or support leg.
Make sure that the top tether strap
is not slack or twisted and is properly
located on the anchor point.
Note: When you are purchasing an ISOFIX
seat, make sure that you know the correct
mass group and ISOFIX size class for the
intended seating locations. See Child Seat
Positioning (page 18).
Note: Where applicable, remove the
luggage cover to ease installation. See
Luggage Covers (page 122).
Your vehicle has ISOFIX anchor points that
accommodate universally approved
ISOFIX child seats.
Note: You may need to raise or remove the
head restraint to ease installation. See
Head Restraints (page 83).
The ISOFIX system comprises two rigid
attachment arms on the child seat that
attach to anchor points on the outboard
rear seats, where the cushion and backrest
meet. Tether anchor points are located
behind the outboard rear seats for child
seats with a top tether.
1.
Route the tether strap under the head
restraint to the anchor point.
Top Tether Anchor Points
2. Push the child seat back firmly to
engage the ISOFIX lower anchor points.
3. Tighten the tether strap in line with the
child seat manufacturer's instructions.

CHILD SEAT POSITIONING
WARNINGS
The child seat must rest tightly
against the vehicle seat. It may be
necessary to lift or remove the head
restraint. See Head Restraints (page 83).
WARNINGS
See an authorized dealer for the
latest details relating to our
recommended child seats.
Note: When using a child seat on a front
seat, always adjust the front passenger's
seat to its fully rearward position. If it proves
difficult to tighten the lap section of the
safety belt without slack remaining, adjust
the seatback to the fully upright position
and raise the height of the seat. See Seats
(page 83).
Extreme Hazard! Do not use a
rearward facing child seat on a seat
protected by an air bag in front of it!
When using a child seat with a
support leg, the support leg must
rest securely on the floor.
When using a child seat with a safety
belt, make sure that the safety belt
is not slack or twisted.

Supplementary Restraints System
Note: You will hear a loud bang and see a
cloud of harmless powdery residue if an
airbag deploys. This is normal.
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNINGS
Extreme Hazard! Never use a
rearward facing child restraint on a
seat protected by an active airbag in
front of it. Death or serious injury to the
child can occur.
Note: Only wipe airbag covers with a damp
cloth.
DRIVER AIRBAG
Do not modify the front of your
vehicle in any way. This could
adversely affect deployment of the
airbags. Failure to adhere to this warning
could result in serious personal injury or
death.
Wear a safety belt and keep
sufficient distance between yourself
and the steering wheel. Only when
you use the safety belt correctly, can it hold
you in a position that allows the airbag to
achieve its optimum effect. See Sitting
in the Correct Position (page 83). Failure
to adhere to this warning could result in
serious personal injury or death.
The airbag will deploy during significant
frontal collisions or collisions that are up
to 30 degrees from the left or the right. The
airbag will inflate within a few thousandths
of a second and deflate on contact with
the occupant, thus cushioning forward
body movement. During minor frontal
collisions, overturns, rear collisions and
side collisions, the airbag will not deploy.
Repairs to the steering wheel,
steering column, seats, airbags and
safety belts must be carried out by
an authorized dealer. Failure to adhere to
this warning could result in serious
personal injury or death.
Keep the areas in front of the airbags
free from obstruction. Do not affix
anything to or over the airbag covers.
In the event of a crash, hard objects could
cause serious personal injury or death.
Do not puncture the seat with sharp
objects. This could damage and
adversely affect deployment of the
airbags. Failure to adhere to this warning
could result in serious personal injury or
death.
Use seat covers designed for seats
with side airbags. Have these fitted
by an authorized dealer. Failure to
adhere to this warning could result in
serious personal injury or death.

WARNING
Do not attempt to open the airbag
cover.
The airbag will deploy during frontal
collisions or collisions that are up to 30
degrees from the left or the right. The
airbag will inflate within a few thousandths
of a second and deflate on contact with
the occupants, thus providing a cushion
between the driver’s knees and the steering
column. During overturns, rear collisions
and side collisions, the knee airbag will not
deploy.
For item location: See At a Glance (page
9).
Note: The airbag has a lower deployment
threshold than the front airbags. During a

GENERAL INFORMATION
LIGHTING CONTROL
Condensation in Lamp Assemblies
Lighting Control Positions
Exterior lamps have vents to
accommodate normal changes in air
pressure.
Condensation can be a natural by-product
of this design. When moist air enters the
lamp assembly through the vents, there is
a possibility that condensation can occur
when the temperature is cold. When
normal condensation occurs, a fine mist
can form on the interior of the lens. The
fine mist eventually clears and exits
through the vents during normal operation.
Clearing time may take as long as 48 hours
under dry weather conditions.
Examples of acceptable condensation are:
• The presence of a fine mist (no streaks,
drip marks or large droplets).
• A fine mist covers less than 50% of the
lens.
Examples of unacceptable condensation
are:
• A water puddle inside the lamp.
• Streaks, drip marks or large droplets
present on the interior of the lens.

Climate Control
Warming the Interior
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Direct the air toward your feet. In cold or
humid weather conditions, direct some of
the air toward the windshield and the door
windows.
Outside Air
Keep the air intakes in front of the
windshield free from obstruction (such as
snow or leaves) to allow the climate
control system to function effectively.
Cooling the Interior
Direct the air toward your face.
Recirculated Air
AIR VENTS
WARNING
Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to mist up. If the
windows mist up, follow the settings
for demisting the windshield.
Center Air Vents
The air currently in the passenger
compartment recirculates. Outside air does
not enter your vehicle.
Heating
Heating performance depends on the
temperature of the engine coolant.
Air Conditioning
Note: The air conditioning operates only
when the temperature is above 39°F (4°C).
Note: When you use air conditioning, your
vehicle uses more fuel.
Side Air Vent
The system directs air through the
evaporator for cooling. The evaporator
extracts humidity from the air to help keep
the windows free of mist. The system
directs the resulting condensation to the
outside of your vehicle, which may cause
a small pool to form under your vehicle.
This is normal.

the Interior Climate

Note: Do not adjust the settings when your
vehicle interior is extremely hot or cold. The
system automatically adjusts to the
previously stored settings. For the system
to function efficiently, the instrument panel
and side air vents should be fully open.
Note: If you select either position low or
high, the system will not regulate a stable
temperature.
Note: At low ambient temperatures with
AUTO selected, the air stream is directed
toward the windshield and side windows
for as long as the engine remains cold.
HINTS ON CONTROLLING THE
INTERIOR CLIMATE
Note: When the system is switched off,
outside air is prevented from entering your
vehicle.
General Hints
Note: When the system is in AUTO mode
and the interior and exterior temperatures
are high, the system automatically selects
recirculated air to maximize cooling of the
interior. When the selected air temperature
is reached, the system automatically selects
outside air.
Note: Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to fog up.
Note: A small amount of air may be felt
from the footwell air vents regardless of the
air distribution setting.
Note: When you select windshield
defrosting and defogging, the instrument
panel and footwell level functions
automatically switch off and air conditioning
switches on. Outside air flows into your
vehicle.
Note: To reduce humidity build-up inside
your vehicle, do not drive with the system
switched off or with recirculated air always
switched on.

SITTING IN THE CORRECT
POSITION
WARNINGS
Do not recline the seatback too far
as this can cause the occupant to
slide under the safety belt, resulting
in serious injury in the event of a collision.
•
Sitting improperly, out of position or
with the seatback reclined too far,
can result in serious injury or death
in the event of a collision. Always sit
upright against your seatback, with your
feet on the floor.
•
•
•
Do not place objects higher than the
seatback to reduce the risk of serious
injury in the event of a collision or
during heavy braking.
Adjust the head restraint so that the
top of it is level with the top of your
head and as far forward as possible.
Make sure that you remain
comfortable.
Keep sufficient distance between
yourself and the steering wheel. We
recommend a minimum of 10 inches
(25 centimeters) between your
breastbone and the air bag cover.
Hold the steering wheel with your arms
slightly bent.
Bend your legs slightly so that you can
press the pedals fully.
Position the shoulder strap of the
safety belt over the center of your
shoulder and position the lap strap
tightly across your hips.
Make sure that your driving position is
comfortable and that you can maintain full
control of your vehicle.
HEAD RESTRAINTS
WARNING
Fully adjust the head restraint before
you sit in or operate your vehicle. This
will help minimize the risk of neck
injury in the event of a collision. Do not
adjust the head restraint when your vehicle
is moving.
Adjusting the Head Restraints
When you use them properly, the seat,
head restraint, safety belt and air bags will
provide optimum protection in the event
of a collision.
Adjust the head restraint so that the top
of it is level with the top of your head.
We recommend that you follow these
guidelines:
• Sit in an upright position with the base
of your spine as far back as possible.
• Do not recline the seatback more than
30 degrees.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNINGS
Do not overfill the fuel tank. The
pressure in an overfilled tank may
cause leakage and lead to fuel spray
and fire.
The fuel system may be under
pressure. If you hear a hissing sound
near the fuel filler door (Easy Fuel
capless fuel system), do not refuel until
the sound stops. Otherwise, fuel may spray
out, which could cause serious personal
injury.
•
Automotive fuels can cause serious
injury or death if misused or
mishandled.
•
The flow of fuel through a fuel pump
nozzle can produce static electricity,
which can cause a fire if fuel is
pumped into an ungrounded fuel container.
•
Fuel ethanol and gasoline may
contain benzene, which is a
cancer-causing agent.
When refueling always shut the
engine off and never allow sparks or
open flames near the filler neck.
Never smoke or use a cell phone while
refueling. Fuel vapor is extremely
hazardous under certain conditions. Avoid
inhaling excess fumes.

Automotive fuels can be harmful or
fatal if swallowed. Fuel such as
gasoline is highly toxic and if
swallowed can cause death or
permanent injury. If fuel is swallowed,
call a physician immediately, even if no
symptoms are immediately apparent.
The toxic effects of fuel may not be
visible for hours.
Avoid inhaling fuel vapors. Inhaling too
much fuel vapor of any kind can lead
to eye and respiratory tract irritation.
In severe cases, excessive or prolonged
breathing of fuel vapor can cause
serious illness and permanent injury.
Avoid getting fuel liquid in your eyes. If
fuel is splashed in the eyes, remove
contact lenses (if worn), flush with
water for 15 minutes and seek medical
attention. Failure to seek proper
medical attention could lead to
permanent injury.
Fuels can also be harmful if absorbed
through the skin. If fuel is splashed on
the skin, clothing or both, promptly
remove contaminated clothing and
wash skin thoroughly with soap and
water. Repeated or prolonged skin
contact with fuel liquid or vapor causes
skin irritation.
Be particularly careful if you are taking
“Antabuse” or other forms of disulfiram
for the treatment of alcoholism.
Breathing gasoline vapors, or skin
contact could cause an adverse
reaction. In sensitive individuals, serious
personal injury or sickness may result.
If fuel is splashed on the skin, promptly
wash skin thoroughly with soap and
water. Consult a physician immediately
if you experience an adverse reaction.

Stop refueling after the fuel nozzle
stops the second time. Additional
fuel will fill the expansion space in
the fuel tank which could lead to fuel
overflowing. Fuel spillage could be
hazardous to other road users.
Do not remove the nozzle from its
fully inserted position during the
entire refueling process.
Note: It is not possible to fully open the
sliding door when the fuel filler flap is open.
Note: When you insert the correct size fuel
nozzle, a spring loaded inhibitor will open.
This helps to avoid filling up with the wrong
fuel.
Note: Your vehicle does not have a fuel filler
cap.
2. Insert the fuel nozzle up to and
including the first notch on the nozzle
A. Keep it resting on the cover of the
fuel pipe opening.

Fuel and Refueling
FUEL CONSUMPTION
Note: The amount of usable fuel in the
empty reserve varies and should not be
relied upon to increase driving range. When
refueling your vehicle after the fuel gauge
indicates empty, you might not be able to
refuel the full amount of the advertised
capacity of the fuel tank due to the empty
reserve still present in the tank.
The CO2 and fuel consumption figures are
derived from laboratory tests according to
Regulation (EC) 715/2007 and subsequent
amendments are carried out by all vehicle
manufacturers.
3. Hold the nozzle in position B during
refilling. Holding the nozzle in position
A may affect the flow of fuel and shut
off the fuel nozzle before the fuel tank
is full.
They are intended as a comparison
between makes and models of vehicles.
They are not intended to represent the real
world fuel consumption you may get from
your vehicle. Real world fuel consumption
is governed by many factors including:
driving style, high speed driving, stop-start
driving, air conditioning usage, the
accessories fitted, payload, towing, etc.
The advertised capacity is the indicated
capacity and the empty reserve combined.
Indicated capacity is the difference in the
amount of fuel in a full tank and a tank
when the fuel gauge indicates empty.
Empty reserve is the amount of fuel in the
tank after the fuel gauge indicates empty.
Filling the Tank
4. Operate the nozzle within the area
shown.
For consistent results when refueling:
•
•
•
5. Slightly raise the fuel nozzle to remove
it.
Results are most accurate when the
refueling method is consistent.
102
B-MAX (CB2) Vehicles Built From: 25-06-2012, Vehicles Built Up To: 31-12-2013
Switch the ignition off before refueling.
An inaccurate reading results if you
leave the engine running.
Use the same fill rate
(low-medium-high) each time the tank
is filled.
Allow no more than two automatic
shut-offs when refueling.
Fuel and Refueling
Calculating Fuel Economy
4. Subtract your initial odometer reading
from the current odometer reading.
5. Calculate fuel economy by dividing
miles traveled by gallons used (For
Metric: Multiply liters used by 100, then
divide by kilometers traveled).
Do not measure fuel economy during the
first 1000 miles (1600 km) of driving (this
is your engine’s break-in period). A more
accurate measurement is obtained after
2000 - 3000 miles (3200 - 4800 km).
Also, fuel expense, frequency of fill ups or
fuel gauge readings are not accurate ways
to measure fuel economy.
Keep a record for at least one month and
record the type of driving (city or freeway).
This provides an accurate estimate of your
vehicle’s fuel economy under current
driving conditions. Additionally, keeping
records during summer and winter show
how temperature impacts fuel economy.
In general, lower temperatures mean lower
fuel economy.
1.
Fill the fuel tank completely and record
the initial odometer reading.
2. Each time you fill the tank, record the
amount of fuel added.
3. After at least three to five tank fill ups,
fill the fuel tank and record the current
odometer reading.

Transmission
The system makes it easier to pull away
when your vehicle is on a slope without the
need to use the parking brake.
When the system is active, your vehicle will
remain stationary on the slope for two to
three seconds after you release the brake
pedal. This allows you time to move your
foot from the brake to the accelerator
pedal. The brakes are released
automatically once the engine has
developed sufficient drive to prevent your
vehicle from rolling down the slope. This
is an advantage when pulling away on a
slope, (for example from a car park ramp,
traffic lights or when reversing uphill into
a parking space).
Note: The lever is pink.
4. Apply the brake pedal. Using a suitable
tool rotate the lever forward while
pulling the transmission selector lever
out of the park position and into the
neutral position.
Note: See an authorized dealer as soon as
possible if this procedure is used.
The system will activate automatically on
any slope which can result in significant
vehicle rollback.

GENERAL INFORMATION
HINTS ON DRIVING WITH
ANTI-LOCK BRAKES
WARNING
Note: When the system is operating, the
brake pedal will pulse and may travel
further. Maintain pressure on the brake
pedal. You may also hear a noise from the
system. This is normal.
The system does not relieve you of
your responsibility to drive with due
care and attention.
Note: Occasional brake noise is normal. If
a metal-to-metal, continuous grinding or
continuous squeal sound is present, the
brake linings may be worn-out. If the vehicle
has continuous vibration or shudder in the
steering wheel while braking, have your
vehicle checked by an authorized dealer.
The anti-lock braking system will not
eliminate the risks when:
• you drive too closely to the vehicle in
front of you
• your vehicle is hydroplaning
• you take corners too fast
• the road surface is poor.
Note: Brake dust may accumulate on the
wheels, even under normal driving
conditions. Some dust is inevitable as the
brakes wear. See Cleaning the Alloy
Wheels (page 173).
PARKING BRAKE

system may not correctly detect
objects.
PARKING AID
WARNINGS
Sensing is only an aid to detect some
objects when moving forward or
backward at low speeds. Traffic
control systems, inclement weather or an
external motor and fan can affect the
sensors; this may include reduced
performance or false activation. To help
avoid personal injury you must read and
understand the limitations of the system
detailed in this section.
The sensors may not detect objects
in heavy rain or other conditions that
cause disruptive reflections.
The sensors may not detect objects
with surfaces that absorb ultrasonic
waves.
The system does not detect objects
that are moving away from your
vehicle. They will only be detected
shortly after they start to move toward
your vehicle.
The parking aid system may not
prevent contact with small or moving
objects that are close to the ground.
The parking aid system gives an audible
warning when it detects a large object
helping to avoid damage to your vehicle.
To help avoid personal injury you must take
care when using the parking aid system.
Take particular care when reversing
with a tow ball arm or a rear fitted
accessory. For example, a bicycle
carrier. The rear parking aid will only
indicate the approximate distance from
the rear bumper to an object.
If you use a high pressure spray to
wash your vehicle, only spray the
sensors briefly from a distance not
less than eight inches (20 centimeters).
Note: Some add-on equipment can cause
reduced performance or false activation.
For example, large trailer hitches, bike or
surfboard racks.
Note: If your vehicle has a tow ball arm, the
system is turned off automatically when
trailer lamps (or lighting boards) are
connected to the 13-pin socket through a
Ford approved trailer tow module.
Note: The parking aid system sensors must
be kept clean and free from snow or ice to
avoid reduced performance or false
activation. Do not clean the sensors with
sharp objects.
Note: Keep the sensors free from dirt, ice
or snow. Do not clean with sharp objects.
Note: If the parking aid sensors are
misaligned due to vehicle bumper damage
it will cause reduced performance or false
activation.
Note: The system may emit false alerts if
it detects a signal using the same frequency
as the sensors or if your vehicle is fully
loaded.

ACTIVE CITY STOP
WARNINGS
If you install a windshield not
approved by us, the system may not
function correctly.
General Information
WARNINGS
The system does not relieve you of
your responsibility to drive with due
care and attention.
If the engine stops after the system
has been switched on, the hazard
warning flashers will turn on.
The system may not function when
driving around sharp curves.
At all times you are responsible for
controlling your vehicle, supervising
the system and intervening if
required.
Note: Keep the windshield free from
obstructions such as bird droppings, insects,
snow or ice.

low speed collisions into the rear of
another vehicle. It will also help you reduce
the impact damage or potentially avoid
the collision completely.
The system performance may vary
depending on your vehicle and road
conditions.
The system will not react to vehicles
driving in a different direction.
The system will not react to bicycles,
motorcycles, people or animals.
The system operates at speeds below
approximately 19 mph (30 km/h) by
applying the brakes when the sensor
detects that a collision is likely.
When the ignition is on the sensor
will constantly transmit a laser
beam.
You must depress the brake pedal to
obtain full braking force.
When the system is braking or has
automatically applied the brakes, a
message will be shown in the information
display.
The system will not operate during
harsh acceleration and steering.
In cold and severe weather
conditions the system may not
function. Rain, snow, spray and ice
can all influence the sensor.

TOWING A TRAILER
WARNINGS
Do not exceed 62 mph (100 km/h).
This could result in the loss of vehicle
control, serious personal injury or
death.
The rear tire pressures must be
increased by 3 psi (0.2 bar) above
specification. Do not exceed the
maximum pressure stated on the tire
sidewall. This could cause serious personal
injury. See Wheels and Tires (page 174).
•
•
Do not exceed the maximum gross
train weight stated on your vehicle
identification plate. This could result
in the loss of vehicle control, serious
personal injury or death. See Vehicle
Identification Plate (page 186).
•
•
Do not exceed the maximum
permissible trailer nose weight
(vertical weight on the tow ball) as
stated in the vehicle specification chart.
This could result in the loss of vehicle
control, serious personal injury or death.
See Capacities and Specifications
(page 186).
Note: The maximum permissible trailer
nose weight on the trailer identification
plate is the trailer manufacturer’s testing
value. The vehicle maximum permissible
trailer nose weight may be lower.
The stability of your vehicle to trailer
combination is very much dependent on
the quality of the trailer.
The anti-lock braking system does
not control the overrun brake on the
trailer. This could result in the loss of
vehicle control, serious personal injury or
death.
Towing a trailer changes the vehicle
handling characteristics and increases
stopping distances. Adapt your speed and
driving behavior to the load of the trailer.
When towing a trailer:
•
•
The gross train weight stated on the
vehicle identification plate applies for road
gradients up to 12% and altitudes up to
3281 feet (1000 meters) when towing a
trailer. In mountainous regions the engine
performance decreases due to lower air
density with increasing altitude. In high
altitude regions above 3281feet (1000
metres), the stipulated maximum
permitted gross train weight must be
reduced by 10% for every extra 3281 feet
(1000 metres).
Obey country specific regulations for
towing a trailer.
Do not exceed 62 mph (100 km/h)
even if a country allows higher speeds
under certain conditions.
124
B-MAX (CB2) Vehicles Built From: 25-06-2012, Vehicles Built Up To: 31-12-2013
Place loads as low as possible and
central to the axle of your trailer. If you
are towing with an unladen vehicle, the
load in your trailer should be placed
toward the nose, within the maximum
nose load, as this gives the best
stability. See Capacities and
Specifications (page 186).
The trailer nose weight (vertical weight
on the tow ball), is essential for the
driving stability of your vehicle and
trailer.
The vertical weight on the tow ball
should be at least 4% of the trailer
weight and not exceed the maximum
permissable weight. See Capacities
and Specifications (page 186).
Reduce speed immediately if the trailer
shows any sign of swaying.
Use a low gear when descending a
steep downhill gradient.

Adding Oil
Adding Engine Coolant
WARNINGS
Only add oil when the engine is cold.
If the engine is hot, wait 10 minutes
for the engine to cool down. Failure
to take care may result in personal injury.
WARNINGS
Only add coolant when the engine is
cold. If the engine is hot, wait 10
minutes for the engine to cool down.
Do not remove the filler cap when
the engine is running.
Do not remove the filler cap when
the engine is running. Failure to take
care may result in personal injury.
Do not remove the filler cap when
the engine is hot. Wait for the engine
to cool down.
1. Remove the filler cap.
2. Add oil that meets Ford specifications.
See Technical Specifications (page
169).
3. Replace the filler cap. Turn it until you
feel a strong resistance.
Note: Do not add oil further than the
maximum mark. Oil levels above the
maximum mark may cause engine damage.
Undiluted coolant is flammable and
may ignite if spilt on a hot exhaust.
Note: In an emergency, you can add just
water to the cooling system to reach a
vehicle service station. Have the system
checked by an authorized dealer as soon as
possible.
Note: Soak up any spillage with an
absorbent cloth immediately.
Note: Prolonged use of incorrect dilution
of the coolant can cause engine damage
from corrosion, overheating or freezing.
ENGINE COOLANT CHECK
Note: Do not add coolant further than the
MAX mark.
1.
Remove the filler cap. Any pressure will
escape slowly as you unscrew the cap.
2. Add a 50/50 mixture of coolant and
water using fluid that meets the Ford
specifications. See Technical
Specifications (page 169).
3. Replace the filler cap. Turn it until you
feel a strong resistance.
WARNING
Do not allow the fluid to touch your
skin or eyes. If this happens, rinse the
affected areas immediately with
plenty of water and contact your physician.
Note: Make sure that the level is between
the MIN and the MAX marks.
Note: Coolant expands when it is hot. The
level may therefore extend beyond the MAX
mark.
If the level is at the MIN mark, add coolant
immediately.

Maintenance
BRAKE AND CLUTCH FLUID
CHECK
WARNINGS
Do not use any fluid other than the
recommended brake fluid as this will
reduce brake efficiency. Use of
incorrect fluid could result in the loss of
vehicle control, serious personal injury or
death.
Only use brake fluid from a sealed
container. Contamination with dirt,
water, petroleum products or other
materials may result in brake system
damage or failure. Failure to adhere to this
warning could result in the loss of vehicle
control, serious personal injury or death.
See (page 169).
Note: The brake and the clutch systems are
supplied from the same reservoir.
Do not allow the fluid to touch your
skin or eyes. This could cause serious
personal injury. Rinse the affected
areas immediately with plenty of water
and consult a physician.
WASHER FLUID CHECK
Note: The reservoir supplies the front and
rear washer systems.
A fluid level between the MAX and
MIN lines is within the normal
operating range and there is no need
to add fluid. A fluid level outside of the
normal operating range could compromise
the performance of the brake or clutch
systems. Have your vehicle checked
immediately.
When adding fluid, use a mixture of washer
fluid and water to help prevent freezing in
cold weather and improve the cleaning
capability. We recommend that you use
only high quality washer fluid.
For information on fluid dilution, refer to
the product instructions.
CHANGING THE 12V BATTERY
WARNING
For vehicles with Start-Stop the
battery requirement is different. You
must replace the battery with one of

Approval invalid.
•
Note: If you change the diameter of the tires
from that fitted at the factory, the
speedometer may not display the correct
speed. Take your vehicle to an authorized
dealer to have the engine management
system reprogrammed.
•
Note: If you intend to change the size of the
wheels from that fitted at the factory, check
the suitability with an authorized dealer.
•
•
TEMPORARY MOBILITY KIT
•
Your vehicle may not have a spare tire.
Therefore you will have a temporary
mobility kit which will only repair one
damaged tire.
Using the Kit
The kit is located in the spare wheel well.
WARNINGS
Compressed air can act as an
explosive or propellant.
General Information
WARNINGS
Depending on the type and extent of
tire damage, some tires can only be
partially sealed or not sealed at all.
Loss of tire pressure can affect vehicle
handling, leading to loss of vehicle control.
Never leave the kit unattended while
in use.
Do not keep the compressor
operating for more than 10 minutes.
You must only use the kit for the
vehicle with which it was supplied.
Do not use the kit on a previously
damaged tire, for example when it
has been driven under inflated.

that the tire has been temporarily
sealed with the kit. Make them aware
of the special driving conditions that
must be observed.
WARNINGS
If the tire inflation pressure does not
reach 26 psi (1.8 bar) within 10
minutes, the tire may have suffered
excessive damage, making a temporary
repair impossible. Do not continue driving
with this tire.
Inflating the Tire
WARNINGS
Check the sidewall of the tire prior to
inflation. If there are any cracks,
bumps or similar damage, do not
attempt to inflate the tire.
Do not stand directly beside the tire
while the compressor is operating.
Watch the sidewall of the tire. If any
cracks, bumps or similar damage
appears, switch off the compressor
and let the air out by means of the pressure
relief valve I. Do not continue driving with
this tire.

sealant bottle B and hose C as soon
as possible once used.
Note: Remember that the kit only provides
temporary mobility. Regulations concerning
tire repair after using the kit may differ from
country to country. You should consult a tire
specialist for advice.
TIRE CARE
To make sure the front and rear tires of
your vehicle wear evenly and last longer,
we recommend that you swap the tires
from front to rear and vice versa at regular
intervals of between 3000 and 6000 miles
(5000 and 10000 kilometers).
WARNING
Do not scrub the sidewalls of the
tires when you are parking.
If you have to mount a curb, do so slowly
and approach it with the wheels at
right-angles to the curb.
WARNING
Examine the tires regularly for cuts, foreign
objects and uneven wear of the tread.
Uneven wear could mean that the wheel
alignment is outside specification.
Before driving, make sure the tire is
adjusted to the recommended
inflation pressure. See Technical
Specifications (page 183). You must,
monitor the tire pressure until the sealed
tire is replaced.
Check the tire pressures (including the
spare) when cold, every two weeks.
USING WINTER TIRES
Empty sealant bottles can be disposed of
together with normal household waste.
Return remains of sealant to an authorized
dealer or dispose of it in compliance with
local waste disposal regulations.
WARNING
When you use winter tires on your
vehicle, you must make sure that you
use the correct lug nuts.
If winter tires are used, you must make sure
that you use the correct tire pressures. See
Technical Specifications (page 183).

B-MAX (CB2) Vehicles Built From: 25-06-2012, Vehicles Built Up To: 31-12-2013
Wheels and Tires
USING SNOW CHAINS
WARNINGS
Do not drive on significantly
under-inflated tires. This may cause
the tires to overheat and fail.
Under-inflation reduces fuel efficiency, tire
tread life and may also affect your ability
to drive your vehicle safely.
WARNINGS
Do not exceed 30 mph (50 km/h).
Do not use snow chains on snow-free
roads.
Do not bend or damage the valves
when you are inflating the tires.
Only fit snow chains to specified
tires. See Technical Specifications
(page 183).
Have tires installed by an authorized
dealer.
If your vehicle has wheel trims,
remove them before fitting snow
chains.
The deflation detection system will alert
you if there is a change of air pressure in
any tire. It does this by using the anti-lock
braking sensors to detect the rolling
circumference of the wheels. When the
circumference changes, this indicates low
tire pressure. A warning message is
displayed in the information display and
the message indicator will illuminate. See
Information Messages (page 67).
Note: The anti-lock braking system will
continue to operate normally.
Only use small link snow chains.
Only use snow chains on the front wheels.
Vehicles with Stability Control
When stability control is on, your vehicle
may exhibit some unusual driving
characteristics. To reduce this, switch
traction control off. See Using Stability
Control (page 111).
If a low pressure warning message is
displayed in the information display, check
the tire pressures as soon as possible and
inflate them to the recommended
pressure. See Technical Specifications
(page 183).
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM
If this happens frequently, have the cause
determined and rectified as soon as
possible.
WARNINGS
The system does not relieve you of
your responsibility to regularly check
the tire pressures.
Apart from a too low tire pressure or a
damaged tire, the following situations can
affect the rolling circumference:
• Vehicle load is uneven.
• When using a trailer or traveling up and
down an incline.
• Using snow chains.
• Driving on soft surfaces such as snow
or mud.
The system will only provide a low
tire pressure warning. It will not
inflate the tires.
Note: The system will still function
correctly, but there may be an increased
detection time.

opposite direction, have the tire refitted in
the correct direction by an authorized
dealer.
Installing a Road Wheel
Do not work underneath your vehicle
when it is supported only by a jack.
WARNINGS
Use only approved wheel and tire
sizes. Using other sizes could
damage your vehicle and will make
the National Type Approval invalid. See
Technical Specifications (page 183).
Make sure that the jack is vertical to
the jacking point and the base is flat
on the ground.
Do not fit run flat tires on vehicles
that were not originally fitted with
them. Contact an authorized dealer
for more details about compatibility.
Note: Do not lay alloy wheels face down
on the ground, this will damage the paint.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Radio Frequencies and Reception Factors
Radio reception factors
Distance and Strength
The further you travel away from an FM station, the weaker
the signal and the weaker the reception.
Terrain
Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges, tunnels, freeway
overpasses, parking garages, dense tree foliage and
thunderstorms can interfere with the reception.
Station overload
When you pass near a radio transmission tower, a stronger
signal can override a weaker signal and can cause interference in the audio system.
MP3 and WMA Track and Folder
Structure
CD and CD Player Information
Note: CD units play commercially pressed
4.75-inch (12 centimeter) audio compact
discs only. Due to technical incompatibility,
certain recordable and re-recordable
compact discs may not function correctly
when used in Ford CD players.
Audio systems capable of recognizing and
playing MP3 and WMA individual tracks
and folder structures work as follows:
• There are two different modes for MP3
and WMA disc playback: MP3 and
WMA track mode (system default) and
MP3 and WMA folder mode.
• MP3 and WMA track mode ignores any
folder structure on the MP3 and WMA
disc. The player numbers each MP3
and WMA track on the disc (noted by
the .mp3 or .WMA file extension) from
T001 to a maximum of T255. The
maximum number of playable MP3 and
WMA files may be less depending on
the structure of the CD and exact
model of radio present.
Note: Do not insert CDs with homemade
paper (adhesive) labels into the CD player
as the label may peel and cause the CD to
become jammed. You should use a
permanent felt tip marker rather than
adhesive labels on your homemade CDs.
Ballpoint pens may damage CDs. Please
contact an authorized dealer for further
information.
Note: Do not use any irregularly shaped
discs or discs with a scratch protection film
attached.
Always handle discs by their edges only.
Clean the disc with an approved CD
cleaner only. Wipe it from the center of the
disc toward the edge. Do not clean in a
circular motion.
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or
heat sources for extended periods.

MP3 and WMA folder mode represents
a folder structure consisting of one
level of folders. The CD player numbers
all MP3 and WMA tracks on the disc
(noted by the .mp3 or .WMA file
extension) and all folders containing
MP3 and WMA files, from F001 (folder)
T001 (track) to F253 T255.
Creating discs with only one level of
folders helps with navigation through
the disc files.
In track mode, the system displays and
plays the structure as if it were only one
level deep (all .mp3 files play, regardless
of being in a specific folder). In folder
mode, the system only plays the .mp3 files
in the current folder.
AUDIO UNIT - VEHICLES WITH:
AM/FM/CD
WARNING
If you are burning your own MP3 and WMA
discs, it is important to understand how
the system reads the structures you create.
While various files may be present, (files
with extensions other than mp3 and
WMA), only files with the .mp3 and WMA
extension are played; other files are
ignored by the system. This enables you to
use the same MP3 and WMA disc for a
variety of tasks on your work computer,
home computer and your in-vehicle
system.
Driving while distracted can result in
loss of vehicle control, crash and
injury. We strongly recommend that
you use extreme caution when using any
device that may take your focus off the
road. Your primary responsibility is the safe
operation of your vehicle. We recommend
against the use of any hand-held device
while driving and encourage the use of
voice-operated systems when possible.
Make sure you are aware of all applicable
local laws that may affect the use of
electronic devices while driving.

records a short development log of
approximately 10 minutes of all recent
system activity. The log profile and other
system data may be used to improve the
system and help diagnose any problems
that may occur.
WARNING
Driving while distracted can result in
loss of vehicle control, crash and
injury. We strongly recommend that
you use extreme caution when using any
device that may take your focus off the
road. Your primary responsibility is the safe
operation of your vehicle. We recommend
against the use of any hand-held device
while driving and encourage the use of
voice-operated systems when possible.
Make sure you are aware of all applicable
local laws that may affect the use of
electronic devices while driving.
The cell phone profile, media player index
and development log will remain in the
system unless deleted. They are generally
accessible in your vehicle only when you
connect your cell phone or media player.
If you no longer plan to use the system or
your vehicle, we recommend you complete
a master reset to erase all stored
information. See Information Displays
(page 63).
When using SYNC:
• Do not operate playing devices if the
power cords or cables are broken, split
or damaged. Carefully place cords and
cables where you cannot step on them
or they do not interfere with the
operation of pedals, seats,
compartments or safe driving abilities.
• Do not leave playing devices in your
vehicle during extreme conditions as it
could cause them damage. Refer to
your device's manual for further
information.
• Do not attempt to service or repair the
system. See an authorized dealer.
Special equipment is required to access
system data. Access to your vehicle's
SYNC module is also required. We will not
access the system data for any purpose
other than as described without consent.
Examples where system data can be
accessed are for a court order, where
required by law enforcement, other
government authorities or other third
parties acting with lawful authority. Other
parties may seek to access the information
independently of us. Further privacy
information is available. See SYNC™
Applications and Services (page 253).
USING VOICE RECOGNITION
Privacy Information
This system helps you control many
features using voice commands. This
allows you to keep your hands on the
steering wheel and focus on what is around
you.
When a cell phone is connected to SYNC,
the system creates a profile that is linked
to that cell phone. The system creates the
profile to offer you more mobile features
and to operate more efficiently. Among
other things, this profile may contain data
about your phonebook, text messages
(read and unread) and call history. This
will include the history of calls when your
cell phone was not connected to the
system. If you connect a media player, the
system creates and retains an index of
Helpful Hints
Make sure the interior of your vehicle is as
quiet as possible. Wind noise from open
windows and road vibrations may prevent
the system from correctly recognizing
spoken commands.

• Ending a call.
• Using privacy mode.
• Dialing a number.
• Redialing.
• Call waiting notification.
• Caller ID.
Depending on your cell phone's capability
and your market, the system may prompt
you with questions such as setting the
current cell phone as the primary cell
phone (the cell phone the system
automatically tries to connect with first
when you switch the ignition on),
downloading your phonebook, etc.
Pairing Subsequent Cell Phones
Note: You must switch the ignition and
radio on.
Other features such as text messaging
using Bluetooth and automatic phonebook

WARNINGS
SYNC™ APPLICATIONS AND
SERVICES
Unless the feature setting is switched
on prior to a crash, the system will
not attempt to place an emergency
call which could delay the response time,
potentially increasing the risk of serious
injury or death. Do not wait for the system
to make an emergency call if you can do it
yourself. Dial emergency services
immediately to avoid a delayed response
time. If you do not hear emergency
assistance within five seconds of the crash,
the system or cell phone may be damaged
or non-functional.

Note: Before selecting this feature, you
must read the Emergency Assistance
Privacy Notice later in this section for
important information.
Always place your cell phone in a
secure location inside your vehicle.
Failure to do so may cause serious
injury to someone or damage the cell
phone which could prevent this feature
from working correctly.

Note: When you switch this feature on or
off, that setting applies for all paired cell
phones. If you have turned this feature off
and a previously paired phone connects
when you switch on the ignition, either a
voice message plays, a display message or
icon is shown or both.
Off without voice reminder provides a
display reminder only without a voice
reminder when your cell phone connects.
To make sure that Emergency Assistance
works correctly:
• The system must have power and be
working correctly at the time of the
crash and during feature activation and
use.
• You must switch on the feature before
a crash.
• You must have a cell phone connected
to the system.
• In certain countries, it may be
necessary to have a valid and
registered SIM card with credit in order
to place and maintain an emergency
call.
• A connected cell phone must have the
ability to make and maintain an
outgoing call at the time of the crash.
• A connected cell phone must have
adequate network coverage, battery
power and signal strength.
• Your vehicle must have battery power.
Note: Every cell phone operates differently.
While this feature works with most cell
phones, some cell phones may experience
difficulties using this feature.
Note: Make sure you are familiar with the
information about airbag deployment. See
Supplementary Restraints System (page
23).
If a crash deploys an airbag or triggers the
fuel pump shut off, the system may
contact emergency services by dialing 112
(the wireless emergency number that
works in most European countries) through
a paired and connected cell phone. For
more information about the system and
Emergency Assistance, visit the regional
Ford website.

In the Event of a Crash
Note: Not every crash deploys an airbag or
triggers the fuel pump shut off (which may
turn on Emergency Assistance). However,
if Emergency Assistance is triggered the
system tries to contact the emergency
services. If a connected cell phone sustains
damage or loses connection to the system,
it searches for and tries to connect to any
available previously paired cell phone. The
system attempts to dial 112.
Display Options
If you switch on this feature, a confirmation
message appears in the display.

Before making a call:
• If you do not cancel the call and SYNC
makes a successful call, an
introductory message plays for the
emergency operator. After this
message, there is hands-free
communication between your vehicle's
occupants and the operator.
• The system provides a short window
of time (approximately 10 seconds) to
cancel the call. If you do not cancel the
call, the system attempts to dial 112.
• The system plays a message letting
you know when it attempts to make an
emergency call. You can cancel the call
by selecting the relevant icon in the
display or by pressing the hang up
button on your cell phone.
Note: While the system provides
information to the emergency operator, the
system plays a message letting you know
it is sending important information. It then
lets you know when the line is open to start
hands-free communication.
Note: During an Emergency Assistance call,
an emergency priority screen appears which
contains vehicle GPS coordinates when
available.
Note: It is possible that GPS location
information is not available at the time of
the crash; in this case, Emergency
Assistance will still attempt to place an
emergency call.
Note: It is possible that the emergency
services will not receive the GPS
coordinates; in this case, hands-free
communication with an emergency operator
is available.
During a call:
• Emergency assistance uses your
vehicle GPS or cellular network
information when available to
determine the most appropriate
language to use. It alerts the
emergency operator of the crash and
delivers the introductory message. This
may include your vehicle GPS
coordinates.
• The language the system uses to
interact with the occupants of your
vehicle may differ from the language
used to deliver information to the
emergency operator.
• After the delivery of the introductory
message the voice line opens so that
you can speak hands-free with the
emergency operator.
• When the line is connected, you must
be prepared to provide your name,
phone number and location
information immediately.
Note: The emergency operator may also
receive information from the cellular
network such as cell phone number, cell
phone location and cell phone carrier name
independent from SYNC Emergency
Assistance.
Emergency assistance may not work if:
• Your cell phone or Emergency
Assistance hardware sustains damage
in the crash.
• The vehicle battery or the system has
no power.
• A crash ejects your cell phone from
your vehicle.
• You do not have a valid and registered
SIM card with credit in your cell phone.
• You are in a European country or region
where the SYNC Emergency Assistance
cannot place the call. Visit the regional
Ford website for details.

Pull over in a safe and legal manner before
attempting to access a function of the
system requiring prolonged attention. Even
occasional short scans to the screen may
be hazardous if your attention has been
diverted away from your driving task at a
critical time.
Read and follow instructions: Before
using your Windows Automotive- based
system, read and follow all instructions
and safety information provided in this end
user manual ("User's Guide"). Not
following precautions found in this User's
Guide can lead to an accident or other
serious consequences.
Volume Setting: Do not raise the volume
excessively. Keep the volume at a level
where you can still hear outside traffic and
emergency signals while driving. Driving
while unable to hear these sounds could
cause an accident.
Keep User's Guide in vehicle: When kept
in the vehicle, the User's Guide will be a
ready reference for you and other users
unfamiliar with the Windows
Automotive-based system. Please make
certain that before using the system for
the first time, all persons have access to
the User's Guide and read its instructions
and safety information carefully.

Use of Speech Recognition Functions:
Speech recognition software is inherently
a statistical process which is subject to
errors. It is your responsibility to monitor
any speech recognition functions included
in the system and address any errors.
Potential Map Inaccuracy: Maps used
by this system may be inaccurate because
of changes in roads, traffic controls or
driving conditions. Always use good
judgment and common sense when
following the suggested routes.
Navigation Features: Any navigation
features included in the system are
intended to provide turn by turn
instructions to get you to a desired
destination. Please make certain all
persons using this system carefully read
and follow instructions and safety
information fully.
Emergency Services: Do not rely on any
navigation features included in the system
to route you to emergency services. Ask
local authorities or an emergency services
operator for these locations. Not all
emergency services such as police, fire
stations, hospitals and clinics are likely to
be contained in the map database for such
navigation features.
Distraction Hazard: Any navigation
features may require manual (non-verbal)
setup. Attempting to perform such set-up
or insert data while driving can seriously
distract your attention and could cause an
accident or other serious consequences.
Stop the vehicle in a safe and legal manner
before attempting these operations.
TeleNav Software End User License
Agreement
Please read these terms and conditions
carefully before you use the TeleNav
Software. Your use of the TeleNav
Software indicates that you accept these
terms and conditions. If you do not accept
these terms and conditions, do not break
the seal of the package, launch, or
otherwise use the TeleNav Software.
Let Your Judgment Prevail: Any
navigation features are provided only as
an aid. Make your driving decisions based
on your observations of local conditions
and existing traffic regulations. Any such
feature is not a substitute for your personal
judgment. Any route suggestions made by
this system should never replace any local
traffic regulations or your personal
judgment or knowledge of safe driving
practices.
TeleNav may revise this Agreement and
the privacy policy at any time, with or
without notice to you. You agree to visit
http://www.telenav.com from time to time
to review the then current version of this
Agreement and of the privacy policy.
1. Safe and Lawful Use
Route Safety: Do not follow the route
suggestions if doing so would result in an
unsafe or illegal maneuver, if you would be
placed in an unsafe situation, or if you
would be directed into an area that you
consider unsafe. The driver is ultimately
responsible for the safe operation of the
vehicle and therefore, must evaluate
whether it is safe to follow the suggested
directions.
You acknowledge that devoting attention
to the TeleNav Software may pose a risk
of injury or death to you and others in
situations that otherwise require your
undivided attention, and you therefore
agree to comply with the following when
using the TeleNav Software: (a) observe
all traffic laws and otherwise drive safely;
(b) use your own personal judgment while
driving. If you feel that a route suggested
by the TeleNav Software instructs you to
perform an unsafe or illegal maneuver,

unsafe, do not follow such instructions; (c)
do not input destinations, or otherwise
manipulate the TeleNav Software, unless
your vehicle is stationary and parked; (d)
do not use the TeleNav Software for any
illegal, unauthorized, unintended, unsafe,
hazardous, or unlawful purposes, or in any

(e) arrange all GPS and wireless devices
and cables necessary for use of the
TeleNav Software in a secure manner in
your vehicle so that they will not interfere
with your driving and will not prevent the
operation of any safety device (such as an
airbag).

business or leisure purposes, and not to
provide commercial navigation services to
other parties.

of this Agreement, TeleNav hereby grants
to you a personal, non-exclusive,
non-transferable license (except as
expressly permitted below in connection
with your permanent transfer of the

right to sublicense, to use the TeleNav
Software (in object code form only) in
order to access and use the TeleNav

5. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permissible pursuant
to applicable law, in no event will TeleNav,
its licensors and suppliers, or agents or
employees of any of the foregoing, be
liable for any decision made or action
taken by you or anyone else in reliance on
the information provided by the TeleNav
Software. TeleNav also does not warrant
the accuracy of the map or other data used
for the TeleNav Software. Such data may
not always reflect reality due to, among
other things, road closures, construction,
weather, new roads and other changing
conditions. You are responsible for the
entire risk arising out of your use of the
TeleNav Software. For example but
without limitation, you agree not to rely on
the TeleNav Software for critical
navigation in areas where the well-being
or survival of you or others is dependent
on the accuracy of navigation, as the maps
or functionality of the TeleNav Software
are not intended to support such high risk
applications, especially in more remote
geographical areas.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER
APPLICABLE LAW, UNDER NO
CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL TELENAV OR
ITS LICENSORS AND SUPPLIERS BE
LIABLE TO YOU OR TO ANY THIRD PARTY

SUPPLIERS SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE
AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU FOR
THE TELENAV SOFTWARE. SOME
STATES AND/OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT
ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION
OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS
OR EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO
YOU.
TELENAV EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS AND
EXCLUDES ALL WARRANTIES IN
CONNECTION WITH THE TELENAV
SOFTWARE, WHETHER STATUTORY,

United Nations Convention on Contracts
for the International Sale of Goods shall
not apply.

8.4
TeleNav's or your failure to require
performance of any provision shall not
affect that party's right to require
performance at any time thereafter, nor
shall a waiver of any breach or default of
this Agreement constitute a waiver of any
subsequent breach or default or a waiver
of the provision itself.
