GI IMPORTANT INFORMATION IMPORTANT INFORMATION BASIC ASSUMPTIONS This repair manual assumes that you have certain special tools that are necessary for the safe and efficient performance of service operations on Ford vehicles and that you know how to use them properly. It also assumes that you are familiar with automobile systems and basic service and repair procedures. You should not attempt to use this manual unless these assumptions are correct and you understand the consequences described below. SAFETY RISK This manual contains certain notes, warnings, and other precautionary information that you should carefully read and follow to reduce the risk of personal injury to yourself or others and the risk of improper service that may damage the vehicle or render it unsafe. If there is no such information in regard to any specific service method, this does not mean there is no possibility that personal safety or vehicle safety will be jeopardized by the use of incorrect methods or tools. POSSIBLE LOSS OF WARRANTY The manufacturer's warranty on Ford vehicles and engines can be voided if improper service or repairs are performed by persons other than those at an Authorized Ford Dealer. WARNING ON LUBRICANTS AND GREASES Avoid all prolonged and repeated contact with mineral oils, especially used oils. Used oils contaminated during service (e.g .• engine sump oils) are more irritating and more likely to cause serious effects. including skin cancer. in the event of gross and prolonged skin contact. Wash skin thoroughly after work involving oil. Protective hand cleaners may be of value provided they can be removed from the skin with water. Do not use gasoline. paraffin, or other solvents to remove oil from the skin. Lubricants and greases may be slightly irritating to the eyes. Repeated or prolonged skin contact should be avoided by wearing protective clothing if nE?cessary. Particu- lar care should be taken with used oils and greases containing lead. Do not allow work clothing to be con- taminated with oil. Dry clean or launder such clothing at regular intervals. 9TFGIX·001 GI-2
