Essential Information

Location of Spare Tire and Tools Your vehicle is equipped with a temporary spare tire which

is smaller than a regular tire and designed for emergency use only. The jack, spare tire, jack handle and

lug nut wrench are under the cargo cover in the trunk of the vehicle.

Fuses If your electrical components are not working properly, a fuse may have blown. For more

information, please consult your Owner’s Guide.

Fuel Pump Shut-off Switch This device stops the electric fuel pump from sending fuel to the

engine when your vehicle has had a substantial jolt. After an accident, if the engine cranks but does

not start, this switch may have been activated. The fuel pump shut-off switch is located in the front

passenger footwell area in the right upper corner.

Unleaded Fuel Recommendations For optimum performance use “Regular” unleaded fuel

with a pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of at least 87. We do not recommend the use of gasolines labeled

as “Regular” with octane ratings of 86 or lower that are sold in high altitude areas.

Tire Pressure Safe operation of your Sable requires that your tires be properly inflated. The Mercury

recommended inflation pressure is found on the Tire Label or the Safety Compliance Certification Label

located near the front door latch on the edge of the driver’s door. At least once a month and before

long trips, inspect each tire and check the air pressure with a digital or dial-type tire gauge. Don’t forget

the spare. Air pressure should be checked when the tires are cold. Inflate all tires to the inflation

pressure recommended by Ford Motor Company. As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been

equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure warning

light when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated.

Roadside Assistance In addition to your New Vehicle Limited Warranty, Mercury provides new

vehicle owners with a complimentary roadside assistance program. It covers changing a flat tire, jump

starts, limited fuel delivery, lock-out assistance, winch out and towing of your vehicle.

United States (800) 241–3673

Rear Window Buffeting When one or both of your rear windows are fully open, you may

experience a wind throb or buffeting noise. This is common among all vehicles and can be eliminated

simply by lowering a front window two to three inches.

Safety Please wear your safety restraints, pay attention to changing road conditions and drive safely.

For more safety related information, please consult your Owner’s Guide.
