be associated with a specific person.
We respect your privacy and are
committed to protecting it. The
information contained in this manual was
correct at the time of publication, but as
technology rapidly changes, we
recommend that you visit the local Ford
website for the latest information.
Services That We Provide
If you use our services, we collect and use
data, for example account information,
vehicle location and driving characteristics,
that could identify you. We transmit this
data through a dedicated, protected
connection. We only collect and use data
to enable your use of our services to which
you have subscribed, with your consent or
where permitted by law. For additional
information, see the terms and conditions
of the services to which you have
subscribed.
Your vehicle has electronic control units
that have data recording functionality and
the ability to permanently or temporarily
store data. This data could include
information on the condition and status of
your vehicle, vehicle maintenance
requirements, events and malfunctions.
The types of data that can be recorded are
described in this section. Some of the data
recorded is stored in event logs or error
logs.
For additional information about our
privacy policy, refer to the local Ford
website.
Note: Error logs are reset following a service

Data Privacy
you, where permitted by law. For Canada
only, for more information, please review
the Ford of Canada privacy policy at
www.ford.ca, including our U.S. data
storage and use of service providers in
other jurisdictions who may be subject to
legal requirements in Canada, the United
States and other countries applicable to
them, for example, lawful requirements to
disclose personal information to
governmental authorities in those
countries.
SERVICE DATA
Service data recorders in your vehicle are
capable of collecting and storing
diagnostic information about your vehicle.
This potentially includes information about
the performance or status of various
systems and modules in the vehicle, such
as engine, throttle, steering or brake
systems. In order to properly diagnose and
service your vehicle, Ford Motor Company
(Ford of Canada in Canada), and service
and repair facilities may access or share
among them vehicle diagnostic
information received through a direct
connection to your vehicle when
diagnosing or servicing your vehicle.
Additionally, Ford Motor Company (Ford
of Canada, in Canada) may, where
permitted by law, use vehicle diagnostic
information for vehicle improvement or
with other information we may have about
you, for example, your contact information,
to offer you products or services that may
interest you. Data may be provided to our
service providers such as part suppliers
that may help diagnose malfunctions, and
who are similarly obligated to protect data.
We retain this data only as long as
necessary to perform these functions or to
comply with law. We may provide
information where required in response to
official requests to law enforcement or
other government authorities or third
parties acting with lawful authority or court
order, and such information may be used
in legal proceedings. For U.S. only (if
equipped), if you choose to use connected
apps and services, you consent that certain
diagnostic information may also be
accessed electronically by Ford Motor
Company and Ford authorized service
facilities, and that the diagnostic
information may be used to provide
services to you, personalizing your
experience, troubleshoot, and to improve
products and services and offer you
products and services that may interest
EVENT DATA
This vehicle is equipped with an event data
recorder. The main purpose of an event
data recorder is to record, in certain crash
or near crash-like situations, such as an
airbag deployment or hitting a road
obstacle; this data will assist in
understanding how a vehicle’s systems
performed. The event data recorder is
designed to record data related to vehicle
dynamics and safety systems for a short
period of time, typically 30 seconds or less.
The event data recorder in this vehicle is
designed to record such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle
were operating.
• Whether or not the driver and
passenger seatbelts were
buckled/fastened.
• How far (if at all) the driver was
depressing the accelerator and/or the
brake pedal.
• How fast the vehicle was traveling.
• Where the driver was positioning the
steering wheel.
This data can help provide a better
understanding of the circumstances in
which crashes and injuries occur.
23
2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Data Privacy
Entertainment Data
Note: Event data recorder data is recorded
by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash
situation occurs; no data is recorded by the
event data recorder under normal driving
conditions and no personal data or
information (for example name, gender,
age, and crash location) is recorded.
However, parties, such as law enforcement,
could combine the event data recorder data
with the type of personally identifying data
routinely acquired during a crash
investigation.
Data recorded includes, for example:
• Music, videos or album art.
• Contacts and corresponding address
book entries.
• Navigation destinations.
CONNECTED VEHICLE DATA
The modem has a SIM. The
modem was enabled when your
vehicle was built and periodically
sends messages to stay connected to the
cell phone network, receive automatic
software updates and send vehicle-related
information to us, for example diagnostic
information. These messages could
include information that identifies your
vehicle, the SIM and the electronic serial
number of the modem. Cell phone network
service providers could have access to
additional information, for example cell
phone network tower identification. For
additional information about our privacy
policy, visit www.FordConnected.com or
refer to your local Ford website.
To read data recorded by an event data
recorder, special equipment is required,
and access to the vehicle or the event data
recorder is needed. In addition to the
vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such
as law enforcement, that have such special
equipment, can read the information if they
have access to the vehicle or the event
data recorder.
SETTINGS DATA
Your vehicle has electronic control units
that have the ability to store data based
on your personalized settings. The data is
stored locally in the vehicle or on devices
that you connect to it, for example, a USB
drive or digital music player. You can delete
some of this data and also choose whether
to share it through the services to which
you subscribe.
Note: The modem continues to send this
information unless you disable the modem
or stop the modem from sharing vehicle
data by changing the modem settings. See
Connected Vehicle (page 409).
Note: The service can be unavailable or
interrupted for a number of reasons, for
example environmental or topographical
conditions and data plan coverage.
Comfort and Convenience Data
Data recorded includes, for example:
• Seat and steering wheel position.
• Climate control settings.
• Radio presets.
Note: To find out if your vehicle has a
modem, visit www.FordConnected.com.
24
2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Data Privacy
The cell phone profile, media device index
and diagnostic log remain in your vehicle
unless you delete them and are generally
accessible only in your vehicle when you
connect your cell phone or media device.
If you no longer plan to use the system or
your vehicle, we recommend you use the
master reset function to erase the stored
information. See Performing a Master
Reset (page 444).
MOBILE DEVICE DATA
If you connect a mobile device to your
vehicle, you can display data from your
device on the touchscreen for example,
music and album art. You can share your
vehicle data with mobile apps on your
device through the system. See App
Requirements (page 437).
The mobile apps function operates by your
connected device sending data to us in the
United States. The data is encrypted and
includes, for example, the vehicle
identification number of your vehicle, the
SYNC module serial number, odometer,
enabled apps, usage statistics and
debugging information. We retain it only
as long as necessary to provide the service,
to troubleshoot, for continuous
improvement and to offer you products
and services that may be of interest to you
according to your preferences and where
allowed by law.
System data cannot be accessed without
special equipment and access to your
vehicle's module.
For additional information about our
privacy policy, refer to the local Ford
website.
Note: To find out if your vehicle has
connectivity technology, visit
www.FordConnected.com.
EMERGENCY CALL SYSTEM
DATA
If you connect a cell phone to the system,
the system creates a profile that links to
that cell phone. The cell phone profile
enables more mobile features and efficient
operation. The profile contains, for
example data from your phonebook, read
and unread text messages and call history,
including history of calls when your cell
phone was not connected to the system.
When the emergency call system is active,
it may disclose to emergency services that
your vehicle has been in a crash involving
the deployment of an airbag or activation
of the fuel pump shut-off. Certain versions
or updates to the emergency call system
may also be capable of electronically or
verbally disclosing to emergency services
operators your vehicle location or other
details about your vehicle or crash to assist
emergency services operators to provide
the most appropriate emergency services.
If you do not want to disclose this
information, do not activate the emergency
call system.
If you connect a media device, the system
creates and retains a media device index
of supported media content. The system
also records a short diagnostic log of
approximately 10 minutes of all recent
system activity.
Note: You cannot deactivate emergency
call systems that are required by law.

Child Safety
CHILD SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: On hot days, the
temperature inside the vehicle can rise
very quickly. Exposure of people or
animals to these high temperatures for
even a short time can cause death or
serious heat related injuries, including
brain damage. Small children are
particularly at risk.
WARNING: Always make sure your
child is secured properly in a device that
is appropriate for their height, age and
weight. Child safety restraints must be
bought separately from your vehicle.
Failure to follow these instructions and
guidelines may result in an increased risk
of serious injury or death to your child.
WARNING: Do not place a
rearward facing child restraint in front of
an active airbag. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury
or death.
WARNING: All children are shaped
differently. The National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration and other safety
organizations, base their
recommendations for child restraints on
probable child height, age and weight
thresholds, or on the minimum
requirements of the law. We recommend
that you check with a NHTSA Certified
Child Passenger Safety Technician
(CPST) to make sure that you properly
install the child restraint in your vehicle
and that you consult your pediatrician to
make sure you have a child restraint
appropriate for your child. To locate a
child restraint fitting station and CPST,
contact NHTSA toll free at
1-888-327-4236 or go to
www.nhtsa.dot.gov. In Canada, contact
Transport Canada toll free at
1-800-333-0371 or go to www.tc.gc.ca
to find a Child Car Seat Clinic in your
area. Failure to properly restrain children
in child restraints made especially for
their height, age and weight, may result
in an increased risk of serious injury or
death to your child.
WARNING: Properly secure
children 12 years old and under in a rear
seating position whenever possible. If
you are unable to properly secure all
children in a rear seating position,
properly secure the largest child on the
front seat. If you must use a forward
facing child restraint on the front seat,
move the seat as far back as possible.
Failure to follow these instructions could
result in personal injury or death.
WARNING: Always carefully follow
the instructions and warnings provided
by the manufacturer of any child
restraint to determine if the restraint
device is appropriate for your child's size,
height, weight, or age. Follow the child
restraint manufacturer's instructions and
warnings provided for installation and
use in conjunction with the instructions
and warnings provided by your vehicle
manufacturer. A safety seat that is
improperly installed or utilized, is
inappropriate for your child's height, age,
or weight or does not properly fit the
child may increase the risk of serious
injury or death.

CHILD RESTRAINTS RECOMMENDATION
Child Size, Height, Weight, or Age
Recommended Restraint Type
Children weighing 40 lb (18 kg) or less (generally
age four or younger).
Use a child restraint (sometimes
called an infant carrier, convertible
seat, or toddler seat).
Children who have outgrown or no longer properly
fit in a child restraint (generally children who are
less than 57 in (1.45 m) tall, are greater than age
four and less than age 12, and between 40 lb (18 kg)
and 80 lb (36 kg) and upward to 100 lb (45 kg) if
recommended by your child restraint manufacturer).
Use a belt-positioning booster
seat.
Children who have outgrown or no longer properly Use a vehicle seatbelt having the
fit in a belt-positioning booster seat (generally chil- lap belt snug and low across the
dren who are at least 57 in (1.45 m) tall or greater hips, shoulder belt centered across
than 80 lb (36 kg) or 100 lb (45 kg) if recommended the shoulder and chest, and seat
by child restraint manufacturer).
backrest upright.
You are required by law to properly use
child restraints for infants and toddlers in
the United States, Canada and Mexico.
INSTALLING CHILD
RESTRAINTS
Many states and provinces require that
small children use approved booster seats
until they reach age eight, a height of 57 in
(1.45 m) tall, or 80 lb (36 kg). Check your
local and state or provincial laws for
specific requirements about the safety of
children in your vehicle.
USING SEATBELTS
WARNING: Depending on where
you secure a child restraint, and
depending on the child restraint design,
you may block access to certain seatbelt
buckle assemblies and LATCH lower
anchors, rendering those features
potentially unusable. To avoid risk of
injury, make sure occupants only use
seating positions where they are able to
be properly restrained.
When possible, properly restrain children
12 years of age and under in a rear seating
position of your vehicle. Accident statistics
suggest that children are safer when
properly restrained in the rear seating
positions than in a front seating position.
When installing a rear facing child restraint,
adjust the vehicle seats to avoid
interference between the child restraint
and the vehicle seat in front of the child
restraint.
Note: Although the child restraint
illustrated is a forward facing child restraint,
the steps are the same for installing a rear
facing child restraint.
Perform the following steps when
installing a child restraint with seatbelts.
44
2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Child Safety
1.
Position the child restraint in a seat
with a seatbelt.
E142531
4. Insert the belt tongue into the proper
buckle for that seating position until
the latch engages. Make sure the
tongue is latched securely by pulling
on it.
E142529
2. Pull down on the shoulder belt and
then grasp the shoulder belt and lap
belt together.
E142875
E142530
5. To put the retractor in the automatic
locking mode, grasp the shoulder
portion of the belt and pull downward
until you pull all of the seatbelt out.
Note: The automatic locking mode is
available on the front passenger and rear
seats. This vehicle does not require the use
of a locking clip.
3. While holding the shoulder and lap belt
portions together, route the tongue
through the child restraint according
to the child restraint manufacturer's
instructions. Make sure you did not
twist the belt webbing.
6. Allow the belt to retract to remove
slack. The seatbelt clicks as it retracts
to indicate it is in the automatic locking
mode.
45
2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Child Safety
7.
Pull the seatbelt out of the retractor to
make sure the retractor is in the
automatic locking mode. You should
not be able to pull more belt out. If the
retractor is not locked, unbuckle the
belt and repeat Steps 5 and 6.
E142534
10.
Before placing the child in the seat,
forcibly move the seat forward and
back to make sure the seat is securely
held in place.
To check this, grab the seat at the belt path
and attempt to move it side to side and
forward and back. There should be no
more than 1 in (2.5 cm) of movement.
E142533
8. Remove remaining slack from the belt.
Force the seat down with extra weight,
for example, by pressing down or
kneeling on the child restraint while
pulling up on the shoulder belt in order
to force slack from the belt. This is
necessary to remove the remaining
slack that exists once you add the extra
weight of the child to the child restraint.
It also helps to achieve the proper
snugness of the child restraint to your
vehicle. Sometimes, a slight lean
toward the buckle helps to remove
remaining slack from the belt.
9. If the child restraint has a tether strap,
attach it.
We recommend checking with a NHTSA
Certified Child Passenger Safety
Technician to make certain the child
restraint is properly installed. In Canada,
check with Transport Canada for referral
to a Child Car Seat Clinic.
USING LOWER ANCHORS AND
TETHERS FOR CHILDREN
WARNING: Do not attach two child
safety restraints to the same anchor. In
a crash, one anchor may not be strong
enough to hold two child safety restraint
attachments and may break, causing
serious injury or death.
46
2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Child Safety
INSTALLING A CHILD RESTRAINT
IN A CENTER SEAT
WARNING: Depending on where
you secure a child restraint, and
depending on the child restraint design,
you may block access to certain seatbelt
buckle assemblies and LATCH lower
anchors, rendering those features
potentially unusable. To avoid risk of
injury, make sure occupants only use
seating positions where they are able to
be properly restrained.
WARNING: The standardized
spacing for LATCH lower anchors is 11 in
(280 mm) center to center. Do not use
LATCH lower anchors for the center
seating position unless the child restraint
manufacturer's instructions permit and
specify using anchors spaced at least as
far apart as those in this vehicle.
The Lower Anchors and Tethers for
CHildren (LATCH) system has three
vehicle anchor points:
•
•
You cannot install a child restraint with
rigid LATCH attachments at the center
seating position. You can only use LATCH
compatible child restraints, with
attachments on belt webbing, at this
seating position provided that the child
restraint manufacturer's instructions
permit use with the anchor spacing stated.
Do not attach a child restraint to any lower
anchor if another child restraint is attached
to that anchor.
Two lower anchors where the vehicle
seat backrest and seat cushion meet,
called the seat bight.
One top tether anchor behind that
seating position.
LATCH compatible child restraints have
two rigid or webbing mounted
attachments. These attachments connect
to the two lower anchors at the LATCH
equipped seating positions in your vehicle.
This type of attachment method
eliminates the need to use seatbelts to
attach the child restraint.
Each time you use the child restraint, check
that the seat is properly attached to the
lower anchors and tether anchor, if
applicable. Tug the child restraint from side
to side and forward and back where it is
secured to the vehicle. The seat should
move less than 1 in (2.5 cm).
However, you can still use the seatbelt to
attach the child restraint if the lower
anchors are not used. For forward facing
child restraints, you must also attach the
top tether strap to the proper top tether
anchor if a top tether strap has been
provided with your child restraint.
If you did not properly anchor the child
restraint, the risk of a child being injured in
a crash greatly increases.
COMBINING THE SEATBELT AND
LOWER ANCHORS FOR
ATTACHING CHILD RESTRAINTS
Follow the instructions later in this chapter
on attaching child restraints with tether
straps.
When used in combination, you may attach
the seatbelt or the LATCH lower anchors
first, provided a proper installation is
achieved. Attach the tether strap
afterward, if it is included with the child
restraint.
47
2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Child Safety
USING TETHER STRAPS
Many forward-facing child restraints
include a tether strap which extends from
the back of the child restraint and hooks
to an anchoring point called the top tether
anchor. Tether straps are available as an
accessory for many older child restraints.
Contact the manufacturer of your child
restraint for information about ordering a
tether strap, or to obtain a longer tether
strap if the tether strap on your child
restraint does not reach the appropriate
top tether anchor in your vehicle.
E193589
2. Locate the correct anchor behind the
gap cover for the selected seating
position.
Attach the tether strap only to the
appropriate tether anchor. The tether strap
may not work properly if attached
somewhere other than the correct tether
anchor.
Note: If you install a child restraint with rigid
LATCH attachments, do not tighten the
tether strap enough to lift the child restraint
off the vehicle seat cushion when the child
is seated in it. Keep the tether strap just snug
without lifting the front of the child restraint.
Keeping the child restraint just touching the
vehicle seat gives the best protection in a
severe crash.
E142539
Once you have installed the child restraint
using either the seatbelt, the lower anchors
of the LATCH system, or both, you can
attach the top tether strap.
3. Clip the tether strap to the anchor as
shown.
4. Tighten the child restraint tether strap
according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
1.
Route the child restraint tether strap
over the back of the seat. For the
outermost seating positions, route the
tether strap under the head restraint
and between the head restraint posts.
For vehicles with a center seating
position, route the tether strap over the
top of the head restraint. If needed, you
can also remove the head restraints.
Note: The head restraints are not
removable on 2-door vehicles.
If your child restraint system has a tether
strap, and the child restraint manufacturer
recommends its use, we also recommend
its use.
BOOSTER SEATS
Use a belt-positioning booster seat for
children who have outgrown or no longer
properly fit in a child restraint and meet
the following criteria.

Types of Booster Seats
Generally children who are less than
57 in (1.45 m) tall.
Are greater than age four (4) and less
than age twelve (12).
Are between 40 lb (18 kg) and 80 lb
(36 kg) and upward to 100 lb (45 kg).
Many state and provincial laws require that
children use approved booster seats until
they reach age eight, a height of 57 in
(1.45 m) tall, or 80 lb (36 kg).
Booster seats should be used until you can
answer yes to all of these questions when
seated without a booster seat:
E68924
•
Backless booster seats
If your backless booster seat has a
removable shield, remove the shield.
If a vehicle seating position has a low seat
backrest or no head restraint, a backless
booster seat may place your child's head,
as measured at the tops of the ears, above
the top of the seat. In this case, move the
backless booster to another seating
position with a higher seat backrest or
head restraint and lap and shoulder belts,
or consider using a high-back booster seat.
E142595
•
•
•
•
•
Can the child sit all the way back
against their vehicle seat backrest with
knees bent comfortably at the edge of
the seat cushion?
Can the child sit without slouching?
Does the lap belt rest low across the
hips?
Is the shoulder belt centered on the
shoulder and chest?
Can the child stay seated like this for
the whole trip?
E70710
Always use booster seats in conjunction
with your vehicle lap and shoulder belt.
•
High-back booster seats
If, with a backless booster seat, you cannot
find a seating position that adequately
supports your child's head, a high-back
booster seat would be a better choice.
49
2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Child Safety
Children and booster seats vary in size and
shape. Choose a booster that keeps the
lap belt low and snug across the hips,
never up across the stomach, and lets you
adjust the shoulder belt to cross the chest
and rest snugly near the center of the
shoulder.
The following drawings compare the ideal
fit to a shoulder belt uncomfortably close
to the neck and a shoulder belt that could
slip off the shoulder. The drawings also
show how the lap belt should be low and
snug across the child's hips.
E142596
E142597
If the booster seat slides on the vehicle
seat upon which it is being used, placing a
rubberized mesh sold as shelf or carpet
liner under the booster seat may improve
this condition. Do not use any item thicker
than this under the booster seat. Check
with the booster seat manufacturer's
instructions.

Seatbelts
SEATBELT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Children must always
be properly restrained.
WARNING: Each seating position
in your vehicle has a specific seatbelt
assembly made up of one buckle and
one tongue designed to be used as a pair.
Use the shoulder belt on the outside
shoulder only. Never wear the shoulder
belt under the arm. Never use a single
seatbelt for more than one person.
WARNING: Do not allow a
passenger to hold a child on their lap
when your vehicle is moving. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in
personal injury or death in the event of a
sudden stop or crash.
WARNING: Even with advanced
restraints systems, properly restrain
children 12 and under in a rear seating
position. Failure to follow this could
seriously increase the risk of injury or
death.
WARNING: All occupants of your
vehicle, including the driver, should
always properly wear their seatbelts,
even when an airbag supplemental
restraint system is provided. Failure to
properly wear your seatbelt could
seriously increase the risk of injury or
death.
WARNING: Seatbelts and seats
may be hot in a vehicle that is in the
sunshine. The hot seatbelts or seats may
burn a small child. Check seat covers and
buckles before you place a child
anywhere near them.
WARNING: Always drive and ride
with your seatback upright and the lap
belt snug and low across the hips.
WARNING: If your vehicle is
involved in a crash, have the seatbelts
and associated components inspected
as soon as possible. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury
or death.
WARNING: It is extremely
dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside
or outside of a vehicle. In a crash, people
riding in these areas are more likely to be
seriously injured or killed. Do not allow
people to ride in any area of your vehicle
that is not equipped with seats and
seatbelts. Make sure everyone in your
vehicle is in a seat and properly using a
seatbelt. Failure to follow this warning
could result in serious personal injury or
death.
All seating positions in this vehicle have
lap and shoulder seatbelts. All occupants
of the vehicle should properly wear their
seatbelts, even when an airbag
supplemental restraint system is provided.
The seatbelt system consists of:
• Lap and shoulder seatbelts.
• A shoulder seatbelt with automatic
locking mode, except driver seatbelt.
• Seatbelt pretensioners at the front
outermost and rear outermost seating
positions.
WARNING: In a rollover crash, an
unbelted person is significantly more
likely to die than a person wearing a
seatbelt.

Personal Safety System™
•
WHAT IS THE PERSONAL
SAFETY SYSTEM
•
An advanced safety system that protects
occupants in frontal crashes.
HOW DOES THE PERSONAL
SAFETY SYSTEM WORK
This system provides an improved level of
frontal crash protection to front seat
occupants and is designed to reduce the
risk of airbag-related injuries. The system
analyzes occupant conditions and crash
severity before activating the appropriate
safety devices. During a crash, the
restraints control module may deploy the
seatbelt pretensioners, and one or both
stages of the dual-stage airbags based on
crash severity and occupant conditions.

compounds (for example, baking soda)
that result from the combustion process
that inflates the airbag. Small amounts of
sodium hydroxide may be present which
may irritate the skin and eyes, but none of
the residue is toxic.
HOW DO THE FRONT AIRBAGS
WORK
Contact with a deploying airbag may cause
abrasions or swelling. Temporary hearing
loss is also a possibility as a result of the
noise associated with a deploying airbag.
Because airbags must inflate rapidly and
with considerable force, there is the risk of
death or serious injuries such as fractures,
facial and eye injuries or internal injuries,
particularly to occupants who are not
properly restrained or are otherwise out of
position at the time of airbag deployment.
Thus, it is extremely important that
occupants be properly restrained as far
away from the airbag module as possible
while maintaining vehicle control.
E151127
The driver and front passenger airbags
deploy during significant frontal and near
frontal crashes.
The driver and passenger front airbag
system consists of:
• Driver and passenger airbag modules.
• Front passenger sensing system.
• Crash sensors and monitoring system
with readiness indicator. See Crash
Sensors and Airbag Indicator (page
66).
Routine maintenance of the airbags is not
required.
HOW DO THE SIDE AIRBAGS
WORK
The airbags are a supplemental restraint
system and are designed to work with the
seatbelts to help protect the driver and
right front passenger from certain upper
body injuries. Airbags do not inflate slowly;
there is a risk of injury from a deploying
airbag.
WARNING: Do not place objects
or mount equipment on or near the
airbag cover, on the side of the front seat
backrests, or in areas that may come into
contact with a deploying airbag. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
personal injury or death.
Note: You will hear a loud bang and see a
cloud of harmless powdery residue if an
airbag deploys. This is normal.
WARNING: Accessory seat covers
not released by Ford Motor Company
could prevent the deployment of the
airbags and increase the risk of injuries
in a crash.
The airbags inflate and deflate rapidly
upon activation. After airbag deployment,
it is normal to notice a smoke-like, powdery
residue or smell the burnt propellant. This
may consist of cornstarch, talcum powder
(to lubricate the bag) or sodium

HOW DOES THE SAFETY
CANOPY™ WORK
WARNING: Do not lean your head
on the door. The side airbag could injure
you as it deploys from the side of the
seatback.
WARNING: Do not lean your head
on the door. The curtain airbag could
injure you as it deploys from the side rail
trim or A-pillar. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury
or death.
The side airbags are on the outermost side
of the seat backrests of the front seats. In
certain sideways crashes or rollovers, the
airbags will be inflated. The airbag was
designed to inflate between the door panel
and occupant to further enhance the
protection provided to occupants in side
impact crashes.
WARNING: To reduce risk of injury,
do not obstruct or place objects in the
deployment path of the airbag.
The Safety Canopy deploys during
significant side crashes or when a certain
likelihood of a rollover event is detected
by the rollover sensor. The Safety Canopy
is mounted to the roof side rail sheet metal,
behind the side rail trim, above each row
of seats. In certain sideways crashes or
rollover events, the Safety Canopy will be
activated, regardless of which seats are
occupied. The Safety Canopy inflates
between the side window area and
occupants to further enhance protection
provided in side impact crashes and
rollover events.

AIRBAG PRECAUTIONS
E339112
WARNING: Airbags do not inflate
slowly or gently, and the risk of injury
from a deploying airbag is the greatest
close to the trim covering the airbag
module.
Properly restrain children 12 years old and
under in the rear seats. The Safety Canopy
will not interfere with children restrained
using a properly installed child or booster
seat because it is designed to inflate
downward from the side rail trim above
the doors along the side window opening.
WARNING: All occupants of your
vehicle, including the driver, should
always properly wear their seatbelts,
even when an airbag supplemental
restraint system is provided. Failure to
properly wear your seatbelt could
seriously increase the risk of injury or
death.
WARNING: Do not place objects
or mount equipment on or near the side
rail trim or A-pillar that may come into
contact with a deploying curtain airbag.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in personal injury or death.
WARNING: Properly secure
children 12 years old and under in a rear
seating position whenever possible. If
you are unable to properly secure all
children in a rear seating position,
properly secure the largest child on the
front seat. If you must use a forward
facing child restraint on the front seat,
move the seat as far back as possible.
Failure to follow these instructions could
result in personal injury or death.

PROPERLY ADJUSTING THE
DRIVER AND FRONT
PASSENGER SEATS
WARNING: Keep the areas in front
of the airbags free from obstruction. Do
not affix anything to or over the airbag
covers. Objects could become projectiles
during airbag deployment. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in
personal injury or death.
WARNING: National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
recommends a minimum distance of at
least 10 in (25 cm) between an
occupant's chest and the driver airbag
module.
WARNING: To reduce risk of injury,
do not obstruct or place objects in the
deployment path of the airbag.
WARNING: Do not place a
rearward facing child restraint in front of
an active airbag. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury
or death.
To properly position yourself away from
the airbag:
• Move your seat to the rear as far as you
can while still reaching the pedals
comfortably.
• Recline the seat slightly one or two
degrees from the upright position.
WARNING: Do not attempt to
service, repair, or modify the
supplementary restraint system or
associated components. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in
personal injury or death.
After all occupants have adjusted their
seats and put on seatbelts, it is very
important that they continue to sit
properly. Properly seated occupants sit
upright, lean against the seat backrest, and
center themselves on the seat cushion,
with their feet comfortably extended on
the floor. Sitting improperly can increase
the chance of injury in a crash event. For
example, if an occupant slouches, lies
down, turns sideways, sits forward, leans
forward or sideways, or puts one or both
feet up, the chance of injury during a crash
greatly increases.
WARNING: Several airbag system
components get hot after inflation. To
reduce the risk of injury, do not touch
them after inflation.
WARNING: If a supplementary
restraint system component has
deployed, it will not function again. Have
the system and associated components
inspected as soon as possible. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in
personal injury or death.

• The front passenger seat is
unoccupied.
• The system determines an infant is
present in a child restraint.
• A passenger takes their weight off of

FRONT PASSENGER SENSING
SYSTEM
Even with this technology, parents are
strongly encouraged to always properly
restrain children in the rear seat.
WHAT IS THE FRONT PASSENGER
SENSING SYSTEM
•
This system detects a properly seated
occupant and determines if the front
passenger airbag should be enabled.
•
HOW DOES THE FRONT
PASSENGER SENSING SYSTEM
WORK
The system uses a passenger airbag status
indicator which illuminates indicating that
the front passenger frontal airbag is either
enabled or disabled.
When the front passenger sensing
system disables the front passenger
frontal airbag, the passenger airbag
status indicator illuminates the off
lamp.
If you have installed the child restraint
and the passenger airbag status
indicator illuminates the on lamp,
switch your vehicle off, remove the
child restraint from your vehicle and
reinstall the restraint following the
child restraint manufacturer's
instructions.
The front passenger sensing system works
with sensors that are part of the front
passenger seat and seatbelt. The sensors
are designed to detect the presence of a
properly seated occupant and determine
if the front passenger frontal airbag should
be enabled.
Note: When you first switch the ignition on,
the passenger airbag status indicator off
and on lamps illuminate for a short period
to confirm they are functional.

•
•
If a person of adult size is sitting in the front
passenger seat, but the passenger airbag
status indicator off lamp is illuminated, it
is possible that the person is not sitting
properly in the seat. If this happens:
• Switch your vehicle off and ask the
person to place the seat backrest in an
upright position.
• Have the person sit upright in the seat,
centered on the seat cushion, with the
person's legs comfortably extended.
• Restart your vehicle and have the
person remain in this position for about
two minutes. This allows the system
to detect that person and enable the
passenger frontal airbag.
• If the indicator off lamp remains
illuminated even after this, you should
advise the person to ride in the rear
seat.
•
Objects hanging off the seat backrest.
Objects stowed in the seat backrest
map pocket.
Objects placed on the occupant's lap.
Cargo interference with the seat
Other passengers pushing or pulling on
the seat.
Rear passenger feet and knees resting
or pushing on the seat.
The listed conditions could cause the
weight of a properly seated occupant to
be incorrectly interpreted by the front
passenger sensing system. The person in
the front passenger seat could appear
heavier or lighter due to the conditions
listed.
Make sure the front passenger
sensing system is operating
E67017
properly. See Crash Sensors
and Airbag Indicator (page 66).
If the airbag readiness light is on, do the
following:
•
•
•
After all occupants have adjusted their
seats and put on seatbelts, it is very
important that they continue to sit upright,
leaning against the seat backrest, and
centered on the seat cushion, with their
feet comfortably extended on the floor.
•
•
•
Sitting improperly can increase the chance
of injury in a crash event. For example, if
an occupant slouches, lies down, turns
sideways, sits forward, leans forward or
sideways, or puts one or both feet up, the
chance of injury during a crash greatly
increases.
•
If you think that the state of the passenger
airbag status indicator lamp is incorrect,
check for the following:
• Objects lodged underneath the seat.
• Objects between the seat cushion and
the center console.
Pull your vehicle over.
Switch your vehicle off.
Check for any objects lodged
underneath the front passenger seat
or cargo interfering with the seat.
Remove the obstruction if found.
Restart your vehicle.
Wait at least two minutes and verify
that the airbag readiness light in the
instrument cluster is no longer
illuminated.
If the airbag readiness light in the
instrument cluster remains illuminated,
there may be a problem due to the
front passenger sensing system.
Do not attempt to repair or service the
system. Take your vehicle in for service
immediately.

WARNING: Modifying or adding
equipment to the front end of your
vehicle (including hood, bumper system,
frame, front end body structure, tow
hooks and hood pins) may affect the
performance of the airbag system,
increasing the risk of injury. Do not
modify or add equipment to the front
end of your vehicle.
If any of these things happen, even
intermittently, have the supplemental
restraint system serviced immediately.
Unless serviced, the system may not
function properly in the event of a crash.
The fact that the seatbelt pretensioners
or front airbags did not activate for both
front seat occupants in a crash does not
mean that something is wrong with the
system. Rather, it means the restraints
control module determined the accident
conditions (crash severity, seatbelt usage)
were not appropriate to activate these
safety devices.
• The front airbags activate only in
frontal and near-frontal crashes. Front
airbags may activate in rollovers, side
impacts or rear impacts if the crash
causes sufficient frontal deceleration.
• The seatbelt pretensioners activate in
frontal, near-frontal and side crashes,
and in rollovers.
• The side airbags inflate in certain side
impact crashes or rollover events. Side
airbags may activate in other types of
crashes if the vehicle experiences
sufficient sideways motion or
deformation.
• The Safety Canopy inflates in certain
side impact crashes or rollover events.
The Safety Canopy may activate in
other types of crashes if the vehicle
experiences sufficient sideways motion
or deformation, or a certain likelihood
of rollover.
Your vehicle has a collection of crash and
occupant sensors. These sensors provide
information to the restraints control
module which activates the following:
•
•
•
•
•
Front and rear seatbelt pretensioners.
Driver airbag.
Passenger airbag.
Seat mounted side airbags.
Safety Canopy.
Based on the type of crash, the restraints
control module deploys the appropriate
safety devices.
The restraints control module also
monitors the readiness of the above safety
devices plus the crash and occupant
sensors. The readiness of the safety
system is indicated by a warning indicator
light in the instrument cluster or by a
backup tone if the warning light is not
working. Routine maintenance of the
airbag is not required.
A difficulty with the system is indicated by
one or more of the following:
E67017
The readiness light either flashes or
stays on.
You hear a series of five tones. The
tone pattern repeats periodically until
the problem, the light or both are
repaired.

911 Assist
•
WHAT IS 911 ASSIST
911 Assist is a SYNC system feature that
can call for help.
•
For more information, visit
www.owner.ford.com .
EMERGENCY CALL
REQUIREMENTS
•
Note: If any user sets 911 Assist to on or off,
that setting applies for all paired phones. If
911 Assist is off and the phone connected
to SYNC, an icon displays on the status bar.
WARNING: Do not wait for 911
Assist to make an emergency call if you
can do it yourself. Dial emergency
services immediately to avoid delayed
response time which could increase the
risk of serious injury or death after a
crash. If you do not hear 911 Assist within
five seconds of the crash, the system or
phone may be damaged or
non-functional.
Note: Every phone operates differently.
While SYNC 911 Assist works with most
cellular phones, some may have trouble
using this feature.
EMERGENCY CALL
LIMITATIONS
WARNING: Always place your
phone in a secure location in your vehicle
so it does not become a projectile or get
damaged in a crash. Failure to do so may
cause serious injury to someone or
damage the phone which could prevent
911 Assist from working properly.
The SYNC 911 Assist feature only operates
in the U.S., Canada or in a territory in which
911 is the emergency number. The following
are limitations of this feature:
•
WARNING: Unless the 911 Assist
setting is set on before a crash, the
system will not dial for help which could
delay response time, potentially
increasing the risk of serious injury or
death after a crash.
•
•
•
A connected Bluetooth® enabled
phone must have the ability to make
and maintain an outgoing call at the
time of the incident.
A connected Bluetooth® enabled
phone must have adequate network
coverage, battery power and signal
strength.
The vehicle must have battery power
and be located in the U.S., Canada or
in a territory in which 911 is the
emergency number.
•
•
SYNC is powered and working properly
at the time of the incident and
throughout feature activation and use.
The 911 Assist feature must be set on
before the incident.
You must pair and connect a
Bluetooth® enabled and compatible
cell phone to SYNC.

ASKED QUESTIONS
Why does the keyless entry system not

If the system does not function it may
be limited. See Keyless Entry
Limitations (page 82). If the system
still does not function use the remote
control or the key blade to lock and

Why can I not lock my vehicle?
If you electronically lock your vehicle
with a rear door or the tailgate open,
the system searches for a passive key
inside your vehicle after you close the
last door. If the system detects a key,
all doors unlock indicating that a key
is inside. Your vehicle locks if another
passive key is within the detection
range after you close the last door.
Why does the passive key not work?
The system deactivates passive keys
left inside your vehicle when you lock
it. You cannot switch the ignition on
using a deactivated passive key. Press

HEADLAMPS – FREQUENTLY
ASKED QUESTIONS
HEADLAMPS
Why is there condensation in the
headlamps?
Headlamps 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.
USING THE HIGH BEAM
HEADLAMPS
E327570
Push the lever away from you to
switch the high beam on.
How much condensation is
acceptable?
The presence of a fine mist, for
example no streaks, drip marks or
large droplets. A fine mist covers less
than 50% of the lens.
Push the lever forward again or pull the
lever toward you to switch the high beams
off.

FRONT SEAT PRECAUTIONS
SITTING IN THE CORRECT
POSITION
WARNING: Sitting improperly, out
of position or with the seatback reclined
too far can take weight off the seat
cushion and affect the decision of the
passenger sensing system, resulting in
serious injury or death in the event of a
crash. Always sit upright against your
seat back, with your feet on the floor.
WARNING: Do not recline the seat
backrest too far as this can cause the
occupant to slide under the seatbelt,
resulting in personal injury in the event
of a crash.
E68595
WARNING: Do not place objects
higher than the top of the seat backrest.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in personal injury or death in the
event of a sudden stop or crash.
When you use them properly, the seat,
head restraint, seatbelt and airbags will
provide optimum protection in the event
of a crash.
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 seat backrest so that
your torso is more than 30 degrees
from the upright position.
• 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 in
(25 cm) between your breastbone and
the airbag cover.
• Hold the steering wheel with your arms
slightly bent.
WARNING: Do not adjust the driver
seat or seat backrest when your vehicle
is moving. This may result in sudden seat
movement, causing the loss of control
of your vehicle.

Bend your legs slightly so that you can
press the pedals fully.
Position the shoulder strap of the
seatbelt over the center of your
shoulder and position the lap strap
tightly across your hips.
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 crash. Do
not adjust the head restraint when your
vehicle is moving.
Make sure that your driving position is
comfortable and that you can maintain full
control of your vehicle.
MANUAL SEATS
WARNING: The head restraint is a
safety device. Whenever possible it
should be installed and properly
adjusted when the seat is occupied.
Failure to adjust the head restraint
properly could reduce its effectiveness
during certain impacts.
HEAD RESTRAINT COMPONENTS
WARNING: Adjust the head
restraints for all passengers before you
drive your vehicle. This will help minimize
the risk of neck injury in the event of a
crash. Do not adjust the head restraints
when your vehicle is moving.
Note: Adjust the seat backrest to an upright
driving position before adjusting the head
restraint. 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. If you are

WHAT IS THE GARAGE DOOR
OPENER
HomeLink Wireless Control
System
WARNING: Do not use the system
with any garage door opener that does
not have the safety stop and reverse
feature as required by U.S. Federal
Safety Standards (this includes any
garage door opener manufactured
before April 1, 1982). A garage door
opener which cannot detect an object,
signaling the door to stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal safety
standards. Using a garage door opener
without these features increases the risk
of serious injury or death.
E188211
Note: Make sure that the garage door and
security device are free from obstruction
when you are programming. Do not program
the system with your vehicle in the garage.
The universal garage door opener replaces
the common hand-held garage door
opener with a three-button transmitter
integrated into the driver’s sun visor.
Note: Make sure you keep the original
remote control transmitter for use in other
vehicles as well as for future system
programming.
HOW DOES THE GARAGE
DOOR OPENER WORK
Note: We recommend that upon the sale
or lease termination of your vehicle, you
erase the programmed function buttons for
security reasons. See Clearing the Garage
Door Opener (page 140).
The system includes two primary features,
a garage door opener and a platform for
remote activation of devices within the
home. You can program garage doors as
well as entry gate operators, security
systems, entry door locks and home or
office lighting.

ENGINE BLOCK HEATER
PRECAUTIONS
•
WARNING: Failure to follow engine
block heater instructions could result in
property damage or serious personal
injury.
•
•
WARNING: Do not use your heater
with ungrounded electrical systems or
two-pronged adapters. There is a risk of
electrical shock.
•
WARNING: Do not fully close the
hood, or allow it to drop under its own
weight when using the engine block
heater. This could damage the power
cable and may cause an electrical short
resulting in fire, injury and property
damage.
•
•
We recommend that you do the following
for a safe and correct operation:
• Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension cord
that is product certified by
Underwriter’s Laboratory (UL) or
Canadian Standards Association
(CSA). This extension cord must be
suitable for use outdoors, in cold
temperatures, and be clearly marked
Suitable for Use with Outdoor
Appliances. Do not use an indoor
extension cord outdoors. This could
result in an electric shock or become a
fire hazard.
Use as short an extension cord as
possible.
Do not use multiple extension cords.
Make sure that when in operation, the
extension cord plug and heater cord
plug connections are free and clear of
water. This could cause an electric
shock or fire.
If the block heater cord is under the
hood, do not remove the wiring from
its original location. Do not close the
hood on the extension wiring.
Make sure your vehicle is parked in a
clean area, clear of combustibles.
Make sure the heater, heater cord and
extension cord are firmly connected.
Check for heat anywhere in the
electrical hookup once the system has
been operating for about 30 minutes.
Make sure the system is unplugged and
properly stowed before starting and
driving your vehicle. Make sure the
protective cover seals the prongs of the
block heater cord plug when not in use.
Make sure the heater system is
checked for proper operation before
winter.
HOW DOES THE ENGINE BLOCK
HEATER WORK
The engine block heater warms the engine
coolant. This allows the climate control
system to quickly respond. The equipment
includes a heater element installed in the
engine block and a wire harness. You can
connect the system to a grounded
220-240 volt AC electrical source.

FUEL AND REFUELING
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Do not overfill the fuel
tank. The pressure in an overfilled tank
may cause leakage and lead to fuel spray
and fire.
•
WARNING: The fuel system may
be under pressure. If you hear a hissing
sound near the fuel filler inlet, do not
refuel until the sound stops. Otherwise,

serious personal injury.
•
WARNING: Fuels can cause serious
injury or death if misused or mishandled.
WARNING: Fuel may contain
benzene, which is a cancer-causing
agent.
•
WARNING: When refueling always
shut the engine off and never allow
sparks or open flames near the fuel tank
filler valve. Never smoke or use a cell
phone while refueling. Fuel vapor is
extremely hazardous under certain
conditions. Avoid inhaling excess fumes.
•
WARNING: Read and follow all the
instructions on the pump island.
Follow these guidelines when refueling:
• Extinguish all smoking materials and
any open flames before refueling your
vehicle.
• Switch the engine off before refueling.

2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Automotive fuels can be harmful or
fatal if swallowed. Fuel is highly toxic
and if swallowed can cause death or
permanent injury. If fuel is swallowed
immediately call a physician, even if no
symptoms are immediately apparent.
The toxic effects of fuel may not be
apparent for hours.
Avoid inhaling fuel vapors. Inhaling fuel
vapor 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 in your eyes. If you
splash fuel in your eyes, immediately
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 be harmful if absorbed
through the skin. If you splash fuel on
your skin, clothing or both, promptly
remove contaminated clothing and
thoroughly wash your skin with soap
and water. Repeated or prolonged skin
contact causes skin irritation.
Be particularly careful if you are taking
Antabuse or other forms of Disulfiram
for the treatment of alcoholism.
Breathing fuel vapors could cause an
adverse reaction, serious personal
injury or sickness. Immediately call a
physician if you experience any adverse
reactions.
Fuel and Refueling
Note: Use of any fuel for which the vehicle
was not designed can impair the emission
control system, cause loss of vehicle
performance, and cause damage to the
engine which may not be covered by the
vehicle Warranty.
FUEL QUALITY
SELECTING THE CORRECT FUEL
Do not use:
• Diesel fuel.
• Fuels containing kerosene or paraffin.
• Fuel containing more than 15% ethanol
or E85 fuel.
• Fuels containing methanol.
• Fuels containing metallic-based
additives, including manganese-based
compounds.
• Fuels containing the octane booster
additive, methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl (MMT).
• Leaded fuel, using leaded fuel is
prohibited by law.
E161513
Your vehicle operates on regular unleaded
gasoline with a minimum pump (R+M)/2
octane rating of 87.
Some fuel stations, particularly those in
high altitude areas, offer fuels posted as
regular unleaded gasoline with an octane
rating below 87. The use of these fuels
could result in engine damage that will not
be covered by the vehicle Warranty.
The use of fuels with metallic compounds
such as methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl, which is a
manganese-based fuel additive, will impair
engine performance and affect the
emission control system.
For best overall vehicle and engine
performance, premium fuel with an octane
rating of 91 or higher is recommended. The
performance gained by using premium fuel
is most noticeable in hot weather as well
as other conditions, for example when
towing a trailer. See Towing a Trailer

RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
WARNING: Do not dispose of fuel
in the household refuse or the public
sewage system. Use an authorized waste
disposal facility.
FILLING A PORTABLE FUEL
CONTAINER
When refueling the vehicle fuel tank from
a fuel container, use the fuel filler funnel
included with your vehicle. See Locating
the Fuel Filler Funnel (page 167).
WARNING: Flow of fuel through a
fuel pump nozzle can produce static
electricity. This can cause a fire if you are
filling an ungrounded fuel container.
Note: Do not use aftermarket funnels as
they may not work with the capless fuel
system and can damage it.
Use the following guidelines to avoid
electrostatic charge build-up, which can
produce a spark, when filling an
ungrounded fuel container:
• Only use an approved fuel container to
transfer fuel to your vehicle. Place the
container on the ground when filling it.
• Do not fill a fuel container when it is
inside your vehicle (including the cargo
area).
• Keep the fuel pump nozzle in contact
with the fuel container when filling it.
• Do not use a device that holds the fuel
pump nozzle lever in the fill position.
When refueling the vehicle fuel tank from
a fuel container, do the following:
1.
Fully open the fuel filler door.

drive functionality, added noise, discomfort
and driveline damage.
FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
LIMITATIONS
Do not use four-wheel drive high or
four-wheel drive low mode on dry, hard
surfaced roads. Doing so can produce
excessive noise, increase tire wear and can
damage drive components. Four-wheel
drive high or four-wheel drive low mode is
only for use on consistently slippery or
loose surfaces. Use of four-wheel drive low
mode on these surfaces could produce
some noise, such as occasional clunks, but
should not damage drive components.
Due to normal tire wear, your spare tire is
not necessarily the same size as your
on-road tires, which makes your spare tire
a dissimilar size. Use the spare tire on a
limited basis only.
When driving with a dissimilar wheel and
tire assembly do not:
•
For vehicles with an electronic
shift-on-the-fly transfer case, the driveline
could become mechanically blocked when
attempting to shift out of a four-wheel
drive mode on dry, hard surfaced roads.
•
•
Exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) while
operating in a four-wheel drive mode.
Select a four-wheel drive mode unless
the vehicle is stationary.
Use a four-wheel drive mode on dry
pavement.
You could have limited four-wheel drive
functionality when driving with a dissimilar
wheel and tire assembly, especially when
driving in a mechanically locked four-wheel
drive mode. You can experience the
following:
Note: When your vehicle comes with the
4x4 part-time selectable engagement
transfer case and you are transitioning from
consistently loose or slippery surfaces, be
sure the four-wheel drive system is not
mechanically blocked once you are on dry,
hard surfaced roads in two-wheel drive high.
•
Note: In certain scenarios, where the
four-wheel drive system has difficulty
engaging, a To Engage 4x4 Slow to 3 MPH
or To Engage 4x4 Slow to 5 km/h
message could appear in the instrument
cluster. You can also see this message
when engaging the four-wheel drive system
in extreme cold climates at the beginning
of the drive cycle. Once the driveline warms
up, shifting to four-wheel drive can resume
as normal.
•
•
Additional noise from the transfer case
or other drive components.
Difficulty shifting in and out of a
mechanically locked four-wheel drive
mode.
Driveline component damage.
Mechanical Shift Blocking
On vehicles with an electronic
shift-on-the-fly transfer case, the transfer
case distributes torque to the front wheels
by mechanically interlocking the front and
rear driveshafts together. Various external
factors can affect shifting performance of
this type of system including, but not
limited to:

SWITCHING FOUR-WHEEL
DRIVE ON AND OFF
A vehicle that comes with four-wheel drive,
when selected, has the ability to use all
four wheels to power itself. This increases
traction, which may enable you to safely
drive over terrain and road conditions that
a conventional two-wheel drive vehicle
cannot.
While driving straight, come to a
complete stop on a flat, horizontal
surface.
For vehicles with an automatic
transmission, shift into park (P). For
vehicles with a manual transmission,
press the clutch.
Select 2H and wait for the 2H LED to
become solid.
For vehicles with an automatic
transmission, shift into reverse (R). For
vehicles with a manual transmission,
select reverse (R) and release the
clutch. Let the vehicle roll backward up
to 3 ft (1 m) and press the brake.
For vehicles with an automatic
transmission, shift into drive (D). For
vehicles with a manual transmission,
press the clutch in again, select a
forward gear and release the clutch.
Let the vehicle roll forward up to 3 ft
(1 m).
On some four-wheel drive models, the
initial shift from two-wheel drive to
four-wheel drive while the vehicle is
moving can cause a momentary clunk and
ratcheting sound. These sounds are normal
as the front drivetrain comes up to speed
and are not cause for concern.
Note: Your four-wheel drive system is for
use with a spare tire that is identical in
make, model and size, to the road tires.
We make four-wheel drive vehicles
specially for driving on sand, snow, mud
and rough terrain and having operating
characteristics that are somewhat
different from conventional vehicles, both
on and off the road.
The transfer case supplies power to all four
wheels. On four-wheel drive vehicles, the
transfer case allows you to select different
four-wheel drive modes when necessary.
If the system is mechanically blocked, one
or more of the following actions can relieve
the mechanical shift block:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Momentary acceleration.
Momentary braking.
Bringing the vehicle to a stop.
Shifting the transmission to neutral and
back to drive.
Shifting the transmission to reverse
and back to drive.
Driving the vehicle around a tight turn
at a slow speed.

Electronic Locking Differential (If Equipped)
Note: Switching the electronic locking
differentials off while turning results in
disengagement difficulties. If the electronic
locking differential has difficulty
disengaging, release the accelerator pedal
and turn the steering wheel back and forth
in small increments while maintaining
control and following a straight line.
WHAT IS THE ELECTRONIC
LOCKING DIFFERENTIAL
The electronic locking differential is a
device housed in the front or rear axle, and
when activated allows both wheels on that
axle to turn at the same speed. The
electronic locking differential can provide
additional traction should your vehicle
become stuck. You can activate the
differential electronically and shift it on the
fly within the operating speed range. The
electronic differential automatically
disengages when the vehicle speed
exceeds a set value and it automatically
reengages when the vehicle speed goes
below a set value. See Switching the
Electronic Locking Differential On and
Off (page 190). It also automatically
engages based on certain selected drive
modes. See G.O.A.T. Mode Control
(page 242). The electronic locking
differential is for use in mud, rocks, sand,
or any off-road condition where you need
maximum traction. It is not for use on dry
pavement.

Differential
Note: The electronic locking differentials
are for off-road use only and not for use on
dry pavement. Using the electronic locking

Hill Start Assist
WHAT IS HILL START ASSIST
SWITCHING HILL START
ASSIST ON AND OFF MANUAL TRANSMISSION
Hill Start Assist makes it easier for you to
pull away when your vehicle is on a slope
without using the parking brake.
You can switch hill start assist on and off
on the touchscreen:
HOW DOES HILL START
ASSIST WORK
1. Press Features on the touchscreen.
2. Press Driver Assistance.
3. Switch Hill Start Assist on or off.
Note: The system remembers the last
setting when you start your vehicle.
When the system activates, your vehicle
remains stationary for a few seconds after
you release the brake pedal. This gives you
time to move your foot from the brake
pedal to the accelerator pedal. The brakes
release when the engine has developed
sufficient torque to prevent your vehicle
from rolling down the slope.
SWITCHING HILL START
ASSIST ON AND OFF AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
The system activates when your vehicle is
in any forward gear and facing uphill, or
when your vehicle is in reverse (R) and
facing downhill.
Hill start assist is active when you switch
the ignition on. You cannot switch the
system on or off.

Traction Control
When you switch the system off, a
message and an illuminated icon appear
on the instrument cluster.
WHAT IS TRACTION CONTROL
The traction control system helps to avoid
drive wheel spin and loss of traction.
Use the switch again to return the traction
control system to normal operation.
HOW DOES TRACTION
CONTROL WORK
Note: When you switch traction control off,
stability control remains fully active.
Note: When you place your vehicle into
four-wheel drive low, the traction control
disables. Traction control resumes when
you put your vehicle back into two-wheel
drive or four-wheel drive high.
If your vehicle begins to slide, the system
applies the brakes to individual wheels
and, when needed, reduces engine power
at the same time. If the wheels spin when
accelerating on slippery or loose surfaces,
the system reduces engine power in order
to increase traction.
Note: For additional information on the
traction and stability control systems. See
Stability Control (page 204).

Stability Control
HOW DOES STABILITY
CONTROL WORK
WARNING: You are responsible for
controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your vehicle,
personal injury or death.
WARNING: Vehicle modifications
involving braking system, aftermarket
roof racks, suspension, steering system,
tire construction and wheel and tire size
may change the handling characteristics
of your vehicle and may adversely affect
the performance of the electronic
stability control system. In addition,
installing any stereo speakers may
interfere with and adversely affect the
electronic stability control system.
Reducing the effectiveness of the
electronic stability control system could
lead to an increased risk of loss of vehicle
control, vehicle rollover, personal injury
and death.
If a driving condition activates either the
stability control or traction control you may
experience the following conditions:
•
•
•
The stability and traction control light
flashes.
Your vehicle slows down.
Reduced engine power.
The stability control system has several
features built into it to help you maintain
control of your vehicle:
WARNING: Remember that even
advanced technology cannot defy the
laws of physics. It's always possible to
lose control of a vehicle due to
inappropriate driver input for the
conditions. Aggressive driving on any
road condition can cause you to lose
control of your vehicle increasing the risk
of personal injury or property damage.
Activation of the electronic stability
control system is an indication that at
least some of the tires have exceeded
their ability to grip the road; this could
reduce the operator's ability to control
the vehicle potentially resulting in a loss
of vehicle control, vehicle rollover,
personal injury and death.
Electronic Stability Control
Electronic stability control enhances your
vehicle’s ability to prevent skids or lateral
slides by applying brakes to one or more
of the wheels individually and, if necessary,
reducing engine power.
Roll Stability Control
Roll stability control enhances your
vehicle’s ability to prevent rollovers by
detecting your vehicle’s roll motion and
the rate at which it changes by applying
the brakes to one or more wheels
individually.
Curve Control
Curve control enhances your vehicle’s
ability to follow the road when cornering
severely or avoiding objects in the roadway.
Curve control operates by reducing engine
power and, if necessary, applying brakes
to one or more of the wheels individually.
204
2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Stability Control
Side Wind Stabilization
Side wind stabilization is an advanced
feature that works by carefully applying
the brakes on one side of the vehicle to
reduce the effect of a side wind gust on
the vehicle's path.
Torque Vectoring by Brakes
Torque vectoring control applies brake
torque on the inner driven wheel in a curve
for better traction to avoid an understeer,
or oversteer situation. Unlike electronic
stability control, enhanced torque
vectoring control does not slow the
vehicle. It helps control excessive wheel
slip and gives the vehicle improved
cornering agility.
E72903
Traction Control
Traction control enhances your vehicle’s
ability to maintain traction of the wheels
by detecting and controlling wheel spin.

speeds on downhill slopes between
2–20 mph (3–32 km/h). Above 20 mph
(32 km/h), the system remains on but the
descent speed cannot be set or
maintained.
WARNING: The system does not
replace the parking brake. When you
leave your vehicle, always apply the
parking brake.
Note: The system does not function below
2 mph (3 km/h).
SWITCHING HILL DESCENT
CONTROL ON AND OFF
The system requires a cool down interval
after a period of sustained use. Hill descent
control provides a warning in the message
center and a tone sounds when the system
is about to disengage for cooling. At this
time, manually apply the brakes as needed
to maintain descent speed.
Press the button on the center
console. A light in the instrument
E328593
cluster illuminates when the
system is active.
Note: The amount of time that the system
can remain active before cooling varies with
conditions.
SETTING THE HILL DESCENT
SPEED
To increase or decrease the descent speed,
press the accelerator or brake pedal, or use
the SET + and SET - buttons on the
steering wheel. Once you reach the
preferred speed remove your feet from the
pedals.

Steering
ELECTRIC POWER STEERING
Switch the vehicle off. After at least 10
seconds, switch the vehicle on and
watch the information display for a
steering system warning message. If a
steering system warning message
returns, have the system checked as
soon as possible.
HOW DOES ELECTRIC POWER
STEERING WORK
The electric power steering system assists
the brake system to help operate
advanced stability control and accident
avoidance systems.
WARNING: If the system detects
an error, you may not feel a difference in
the steering, however a serious condition
may exist. Have your vehicle checked as
soon as possible. Failure to do so may
result in loss of steering control.
If your vehicle loses electrical power or
detects a concern when you are driving the
system switches off and you retain normal
steering function. Additionally, whenever
the battery is disconnected or a new
battery is installed, you must drive your
vehicle a short distance before the system
relearns the strategy and reactivates all
systems.
Adapt your speed and driving behavior
according to reduced steering assist.
Extreme continuous steering may increase
the effort to steer. This occurs to prevent
internal overheating and damage to the
steering system. If this occurs, you will not
lose the ability to steer your vehicle
manually nor will it cause damage to the
system. Normal steering and driving allows
the system to cool down and steering
assist returns to normal.
ELECTRIC POWER STEERING
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: The electric power
steering system has diagnostic checks
that continuously monitor the system. If
a fault is detected, a message displays
in the information display. Stop your
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
Note: There is no fluid reservoir to check or
fill.

QUESTIONS
Why does it seem that the steering is
wandering or pulling?
Check your vehicle for an improperly
inflated or uneven tire, loose or worn
suspension or steering components,
or improper vehicle alignment.
The system is functioning properly and
the components have been checked,
why is the steering system continuing
to pull or wander?
A high crown in the road or crosswinds
could make the steering system feel
like it is wandering or pulling.

Parking Aids (If Equipped)
Note: If your vehicle sustains damage
leaving the sensors misaligned, this will
cause inaccurate measurements or false
alerts.
PARKING AID PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: To help avoid personal
injury, always use caution when in
reverse (R) and when using the sensing
system.
When you connect a trailer to your vehicle,
the rear parking aid detects the trailer and
provides an alert. Disable the parking aid
when you connect a trailer to prevent the
alert.
WARNING: The system may not
detect objects with surfaces that absorb
reflection. Always drive with due care
and attention. Failure to take care may
result in a crash.
Note: Certain add-on devices installed
around the bumper or fascia may create
false alerts, for example, large trailer
hitches, bike or surfboard racks, license plate
brackets, bumper covers or any other device
that could block the normal detection zone
of the parking aid system. Aftermarket spare
tires or spare tire covers mounted to the rear
tailgate could cause false alerts from the
park aid system. Remove the add-on device
to prevent false alerts.
WARNING: Traffic control systems,
fluorescent lamps, inclement weather,
air brakes, external motors and fans may
affect the correct operation of the
sensing system. This may cause reduced
performance or false alerts.
WARNING: The system may not
detect small or moving objects,
particularly those close to the ground.
Note: Keep the sensors free from snow, ice
and large accumulations of dirt. If the
sensors are covered, the system's accuracy
can be affected.

HOW DOES ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL WORK
WARNING: Do not use the system
when towing a trailer that has
aftermarket electronic trailer brake
controls. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death.
Adaptive cruise control uses a radar sensor
to adjust your vehicle speed to maintain a
set gap between you and the vehicle in
front of you in the same lane.
WARNING: Do not use tire sizes
other than those recommended because
this can affect the normal operation of
the system. Failure to do so may result
in a loss of vehicle control, which could
result in serious injury.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: You are responsible for
controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your vehicle,
personal injury or death.
WARNING: Do not use the system
with a snow plow blade installed.
WARNING: Do not use the system
in poor visibility, for example fog, heavy
rain, spray or snow.
When Following a Vehicle
WARNING: Pay close attention to
changing road conditions such as
entering or leaving a highway, on roads
with intersections or roundabouts, roads
without visible lanes of travel, roads that
are winding, slippery, unpaved, or steep
slopes.
WARNING: When following a
vehicle that is braking, your vehicle does
not always decelerate quickly enough to
avoid a crash without driver intervention.
Apply the brakes when necessary. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
personal injury or death.
WARNING: The system does not
control speed in low traction conditions
or extremely steep slopes. The system
is designed to be an aid and does not
relieve you of your responsibility to drive
with due care and attention. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in
personal injury.
Hilly Condition Usage
You should select a lower gear when the
system is active in situations such as
prolonged downhill driving on steep slopes,
for example in mountainous areas. The
system needs additional engine braking in
these situations to reduce the load on the
vehicle’s regular brake system to prevent
it from overheating.
WARNING: The system is not a
crash warning or avoidance system.

Note: Keep the front of your vehicle free of
dirt, metal badges or objects. Vehicle front
protectors, aftermarket lights, additional
paint or plastic coatings could also degrade
sensor performance.
Detection issues can occur:
A message displays if something obstructs
the camera or the sensor. When something
blocks the sensor, the system cannot
detect a vehicle ahead and does not
function. See Adaptive Cruise Control –
Information Messages (page 240).
The radar sensor has a limited field of
view. It may not detect vehicles at all or
detect a vehicle later than expected in
some situations. The lead vehicle image
does not illuminate if the system does not
detect a vehicle in front of you.

Lane Keeping System (If Equipped)
WHAT IS THE LANE KEEPING
SYSTEM
WARNING: The sensor may
incorrectly track lane markings as other
structures or objects. This can result in
a false or missed warning.
The lane keeping system alerts you by
providing temporary steering assistance
or steering wheel vibration when it detects
an unintended lane departure.
WARNING: In cold and severe
weather conditions the system may not
function. Rain, snow and spray can all
limit sensor performance.
HOW DOES THE LANE
KEEPING SYSTEM WORK
WARNING: The system may not
operate properly if the sensor is blocked.
Keep the windshield free from
obstruction.
The lane keeping system uses a forward
looking camera mounted on the windshield
to monitor vehicle movement within the
travel lane.
WARNING: If damage occurs in the
immediate area surrounding the sensor,
have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible.
When the camera detects a drift out of the
travel lane, the lane keeping system alerts
the driver by vibrating the steering wheel,
or aids the driver by providing a small
steering input to move the vehicle back
into the travel lane.
WARNING: The system may not
correctly operate if your vehicle is fitted
with a suspension kit not approved by
us.
The driver can select one of three modes:

Pre-Collision Assist
Note: If you perceive pre-collision assist
alerts as being too frequent or disturbing,
then you can reduce the alert sensitivity,
although the manufacturer recommends
using the highest sensitivity setting where
possible. Setting lower sensitivity would
lead to fewer and later system warnings.
WHAT IS PRE-COLLISION
ASSIST
Pre-collision assist detects and warns of
approaching hazards in the roadway. If
your vehicle is rapidly approaching another
stationary vehicle, a vehicle traveling in the
same direction as yours, or a pedestrian
within your driving path, the system
provides multiple levels of assistance to
help avoid a collision.
Each system has various levels of
detection capabilities. See Pre-Collision
Assist Limitations (page 263).
PRE-COLLISION ASSIST
PRECAUTIONS
HOW DOES PRE-COLLISION
ASSIST WORK
The system warns the driver of potential
hazards by providing three levels of
assistance.
WARNING: You are responsible for
controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your vehicle,
personal injury or death.
E156130
If your vehicle is rapidly approaching
potential hazards the system provides the
following levels of functionality:
WARNING: The system does not
detect vehicles that are driving in a
different direction, cyclists or animals.
Apply the brakes when necessary. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your vehicle,
personal injury or death.
1. Alert.
2. Brake Support.
3. Automatic Emergency Braking.
Alert: When active, a flashing
visual warning appears and an
E329466
audible warning tone sounds.
WARNING: The system does not
operate during hard acceleration or
steering. Failure to take care may lead
to a crash or personal injury.
Brake Support: The system is designed
to help reduce the impact speed by
preparing the brakes for rapid braking. The
system does not automatically apply the
brakes. If you press the brake pedal, the
system could apply additional braking up
to maximum braking force, even if you
lightly press the brake pedal.
WARNING: The system may fail or
operate with reduced function during
cold and severe weather conditions.
Snow, ice, rain, spray and fog can
adversely affect the system. Keep the
front camera and radar free of snow and
ice. Failure to take care may result in the
loss of control of your vehicle, serious
personal injury or death.
Automatic Emergency Braking:
Automatic emergency braking may
activate if the system determines that a
collision is imminent.
262
2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Pre-Collision Assist
Note: Brake support and automatic
emergency braking are active at speeds up
to 75 mph (120 km/h). If the vehicle has a
radar sensor included with adaptive cruise
control, then brake support and automatic
emergency braking are active up to the
maximum speed of the vehicle.
WARNING: Take additional care if
your vehicle is heavily loaded or you are
towing a trailer. These conditions could
result in reduced performance of this
system. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death.
Pedestrian Detection Limitations
WARNING: The system cannot
help prevent all crashes. Do not rely on
this system to replace driver judgment
and the need to maintain a safe distance
and speed.
Pedestrian detection is active at speeds
up to 50 mph (80 km/h).
Pedestrian detection operates optimally
when detected hazards are clearly
identifiable. System performance may
reduce in situations where pedestrians are
running, partly obscured, have a complex
background, or cannot be distinguished
from a group.
WARNING: In situations where the
vehicle camera has limited detection
capability, this may reduce system
performance. These situations include
but are not limited to direct or low
sunlight, vehicles at night without tail
lights, unconventional vehicle types,
pedestrians with complex backgrounds,
running pedestrians, partly obscured
pedestrians, or pedestrians that the
system cannot distinguish from a group.
Failure to take care may result in the loss
of control of your vehicle, serious
personal injury or death.
Intersection Assist (If Equipped)
If your vehicle comes with a radar sensor
included in adaptive cruise control, the
pre-collision assist system may operate in
a scenario where you are turning across an
oncoming vehicle's path. Detection of
vehicles driving in an oncoming direction
is active if your vehicle is driving at speeds
up to 19 mph (30 km/h).
PRE-COLLISION ASSIST
LIMITATIONS
Pre-collision assist depends on the
detection ability of its camera and sensors.
Any obstructions or damage to these areas
can limit detection or prevent the system
from functioning. See Locating the
Pre-Collision Assist Sensors (page 264).
The system is active at speeds above
3 mph (5 km/h).
E309750
Note: The pre-collision assist system
automatically disables when you select
four-wheel drive low, manually disable

space is available) or by payload
capacity (how much weight the
vehicle should carry). Once you
have reached the maximum
payload of your vehicle, do not
add more cargo, even if there is
space available. Overloading or
improperly loading your vehicle
can contribute to loss of vehicle
control and vehicle rollover.
WARNING: Do not exceed
the GVWR or the GAWR
specified on the certification
label.
WARNING: Exceeding any
vehicle weight rating can
adversely affect the
performance and handling of
your vehicle, cause vehicle
damage and can result in the
loss of control of your vehicle,
serious personal injury or death.
WARNING: When loading

Load Carrying
is the maximum payload for your
vehicle as built by the assembly
plant. If you install any additional
equipment on your vehicle, you
must determine the new payload.
Subtract the weight of the
equipment from the payload listed
on the Tire and Loading label.
When towing, trailer tongue
weight or king pin weight is also
part of payload.
CALCULATING PAYLOAD
Tire and Loading Label Information
Example:
CALCULATING THE LOAD
LIMIT
Steps for determining the correct
load limit:
1. Locate the statement "The
combined weight of occupants
and cargo should never exceed
XXX kg or XXX lb." on your
vehicle’s placard.
2. Determine the combined
weight of the driver and
passengers that will be riding
in your vehicle.
3. Subtract the combined weight
of the driver and passengers
from XXX kg or XXX lb.
4. The resulting figure equals the
available amount of cargo and
luggage load capacity. For
example, if the “XXX” amount
equals 1,400 lb. and there will
be five 150 lb. passengers in
your vehicle, the amount of
available cargo and luggage
load capacity is 650 lb.
(1400-750 (5 x 150) = 650 lb.)
E198719
Payload is the combined weight
of cargo and passengers that your
vehicle is carrying. The maximum
payload for your vehicle appears
on the Tire and Loading label. The
label is either on the B-pillar or the
edge of the driver door. Vehicles
exported outside the US and
Canada may not have a tire and
loading label. Look for “The
combined weight of occupants
and cargo should never exceed
XXX kg or XXX lb” for maximum
payload. The payload listed on the
Tire and Loading Information label

Load Carrying
5. Determine the combined
weight of luggage and cargo
being loaded on the vehicle.
That weight may not safely
exceed the available cargo and
luggage load capacity
calculated in Step 4.
6. If your vehicle will be towing a
trailer, load from your trailer
will be transferred to your
vehicle. Consult this manual to
determine how this reduces the
available cargo and luggage
load capacity of your vehicle.
Suppose your vehicle has a
1400-pound (635-kilogram) cargo
and luggage capacity. You and
one of your friends decide to pick
up cement from the local home
improvement store to finish that
patio you have been planning for
the past two years. Measuring the
inside of the vehicle with the rear
seat folded down, you have room
for twelve 100-pound
(45-kilogram) bags of cement. Do
you have enough load capacity to
transport the cement to your
home? If you and your friend each
weigh 220 pounds (99 kilograms),
the calculation would be: 1400 (2 x 220) - (12 x 100) = 1400 - 440
- 1200 = - 240 pounds. No, you do
not have enough cargo capacity
to carry that much weight. In
metric units, the calculation would
be: 635 kilograms - (2 x 99
kilograms) - (12 x 45 kilograms) =
635 - 198 - 540 = -103 kilograms.
You will need to reduce the load
weight by at least 240 pounds
(104 kilograms). If you remove
three 100-pound (45-kilogram)
cement bags, then the load
calculation would be: 1400 - (2 x
220) - (9 x 100) = 1400 - 440 900 = 60 pounds. Now you have
the load capacity to transport the
cement and your friend home. In
metric units, the calculation would
be: 635 kilograms - (2 x 99
kilograms) - (9 x 45 kilograms) =
635 - 198 - 405 = 32 kilograms.
Helpful examples for
calculating the available
amount of cargo and luggage
load capacity
Suppose your vehicle has a
1400-pound (635-kilogram) cargo
and luggage capacity. You decide
to go golfing. Is there enough load
capacity to carry you, four of your
friends and all the golf bags? You
and four friends average 220
pounds (99 kilograms) each and
the golf bags weigh approximately
30 pounds (13.5 kilograms) each.
The calculation would be: 1400 (5 x 220) - (5 x 30) = 1400 - 1100
- 150 = 150 pounds. Yes, you have
enough load capacity in your
vehicle to transport four friends
and your golf bags. In metric units,
the calculation would be: 635
kilograms - (5 x 99 kilograms) (5 x 13.5 kilograms) = 635 - 495 67.5 = 72.5 kilograms.

The above calculations also
assume that the loads are
positioned in your vehicle in a
manner that does not overload
the front or the rear gross axle
weight rating specified for your
vehicle on the Safety Compliance
Certification label.
Make sure that you securely fasten the
load. Check the tightness of the load
before driving and at each fuel stop.

Towing a Trailer
•
Certain states require functioning trailer
brakes for trailers over a specified weight.
Be sure to check state regulations for this
specified weight.
Ford Motor Company recommends
separate functioning brake systems for
trailers weighing more than 1,500 lb
(680 kg) when loaded.
TOWING A TRAILER
LIMITATIONS
•
The vehicle's load capacity
designation is by weight, not by
volume, so you cannot necessarily
use all available space when
loading a vehicle or trailer.
Note: Your vehicle could have
reduced performance when
operating at high altitudes and
when heavily loaded or towing a
trailer. When driving at elevation,
to match driving performance as
perceived at sea level, reduce gross
vehicle weight and gross
combination weight by 2% per
1,000 ft (300 m) elevation.
Load the heaviest items above
the trailer axles or just slightly
forward toward the trailer
tongue. Do not allow the final
trailer tongue weight to go
above or below 10-15% of the
loaded trailer weight. The
trailer tongue weight should
never exceed 10% of the
maximum towing capacity.
Select a ball mount with the
correct rise or drop. When both
the loaded vehicle and trailer
are connected, the trailer frame
should be level, or slightly
angled down toward your
vehicle, when viewed from the
side.
TRAILER TOWING HINTS
Towing a trailer places an extra load on
your vehicle's engine, transmission, axle,
brakes, tires and suspension. Periodically
inspect these components during and after
any towing operation.
When driving with a trailer or payload, a
slight takeoff vibration or shudder may be
present due to the increased payload
weight.
LOADING YOUR TRAILER
Your vehicle may have a temporary or
conventional spare tire. A temporary spare
tire is different in diameter or width,
tread-type, or is from a different
manufacturer than the road tires on your
vehicle. Consult information on the tire
label or Safety Compliance label for
limitations when using.
To help minimize how trailer
movement affects your vehicle
when driving:
• Load the heaviest items closest
to the trailer floor.
• Load the heaviest items
centered between the left and
right side trailer tires.
284
2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Towing a Trailer
When towing a trailer:
• Obey country specific regulations for
towing a trailer.
• Do not drive faster than 70 mph
(113 km/h) during the first 500 mi
(800 km).
• Do not make full-throttle starts.
• Check your hitch, electrical connections
and trailer wheel lug nuts thoroughly
after you have traveled 50 mi (80 km).
• When stopped in congested or heavy
traffic during hot weather, place the
transmission in park (P) to aid engine
and transmission cooling and to help
A/C performance.
• Turn off the speed control with heavy
loads or in hilly terrain. The speed
control may turn off when you are
towing on long, steep slopes.
• Shift to a lower gear when driving down
a long or steep hill. Do not continuously
apply the brakes, as they may overheat
and become less effective.
• If your transmission has Grade Assist
or Tow/Haul, use this feature when
towing. This provides engine braking
and helps eliminate excessive
transmission shifting for optimum fuel
economy and transmission cooling.
• Your vehicle has AdvanceTrac with roll
stability control. When towing a trailer,
additional loads could cause the
AdvanceTrac system to engage during
cornering maneuvers. Reduce cornering
speeds to make sure that you can
maintain control of the vehicle and
trailer if the AdvanceTrac system
engages.
•
•
Allow more distance for stopping with
a trailer attached. Anticipate stops and
gradually brake.
Avoid parking on a slope. However, if
you must park on a slope, turn the
steering wheel to point your vehicle
tires away from traffic flow, set the
parking brake, place the transmission
in park (P) and place wheel chocks in
front and back of the trailer wheels.
Note: Chocks are not included with your
vehicle.
LAUNCHING OR RETRIEVING
A BOAT OR PERSONAL
WATERCRAFT
When backing down a ramp during boat
launching or retrieval:
• Do not allow the static water level to
rise above the bottom edge of the rear
bumper.
• Do not allow waves to break higher
than 6 in (15 cm) above the bottom
edge of the rear bumper.
Exceeding 6 in (15 cm) could allow water
to enter vehicle components, causing
internal damage to the components and
affecting driveability, emissions and
reliability.
Note: Replace the rear axle lubricant
anytime the rear axle has been submerged
in water.
Note: Disconnect the trailer wiring
connector before backing the trailer into the
water.
Note: Reconnect the trailer wiring
connector after removing the trailer from
the water.

Driving Hints
Before you venture off road, have a clear
mental picture of the underside of your
vehicle. Learn the location of any low
hanging items and any skid plates that may
be on the vehicle. You can avoid snagging
them on rocks and other obstacles if you
know where they are.
OFF-ROAD DRIVING
WHAT IS OFF-ROAD DRIVING
Off-road driving is driving your vehicle on
unsurfaced roads or trails, made from dirt,
rocks, sand and mud.
Memorizing some basic dimensions helps
you confidently deal with off-road
obstacles. Get to know your vehicle’s
height and width, its lowest point, its
wading depth and angles. Familiarize
yourself with your vehicle’s on-board
technology features.
Your vehicle has been designed and
equipped to explore those places where
the road cannot take you, whether you
choose a forest trail or the open desert.
OFF-ROAD DRIVING
PRECAUTIONS
We recommend driving at least two
vehicles when driving off-road. The buddy
system helps make sure that help is close
at hand should a vehicle become stuck or
damaged.
WARNING: If you continue to drive
your vehicle when the engine is
overheating, the engine could stop
without warning. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in the loss of
control of your vehicle.
We recommend taking supplies such as a
first aid kit, supply of water, tow strap and
cell or satellite phone with you any time
you plan an off-road excursion.
Before going off-road, consult with your
local governmental agencies to determine
designated off-road trails and recreation
areas. Also, be sure to understand any
off-road vehicle registration requirements
for the area in which you plan on driving.
BASIC OFF-ROAD DRIVING
TECHNIQUES
Grip the steering wheel with your thumbs
on the outside of the rim. This reduces the
risk of injury due to abrupt steering wheel
motions that occur when negotiating rough
terrain.
Tread Lightly is an educational program
designed to increase public awareness of
land-use regulations and responsibilities
in our nation’s wilderness areas. The U.S.
Forest Service and Bureau of Land
Management is encouraging you to help
preserve our national forest and other
public and private lands by treading lightly.
Control your throttle, brake and steering
inputs in a smooth manner. Sudden inputs
to the controls can cause a loss of traction
for the vehicle, especially when on sloped
terrain or crossing obstacles such as rocks
or logs.
Before taking your vehicle off-road,
perform a basic vehicle inspection to make
sure the vehicle is in top working condition.

Driving Hints
DRIVING OFF-ROAD
Look ahead on your route noting upcoming
obstacles, surface texture or color changes
or any other factors which may indicate a
change in available traction. Adjust the
vehicle speed and route to avoid a loss in
traction. Conditions can change causing
the course to vary day to day. Mark
obstacles with GPS markers to avoid
potential vehicle damage. Where
necessary, get out of your vehicle and
check the terrain.
Driving In Snow and Ice
WARNING: If you are driving in
slippery conditions that require tire
chains or cables, then it is critical that
you drive cautiously. Keep speeds down,
allow for longer stopping distances and
avoid aggressive steering to reduce the
chances of a loss of vehicle control
which can lead to serious injury or death.
If the rear end of your vehicle slides while
cornering, steer in the direction of the
slide until you regain control of your
vehicle.
When driving off-road, if the front or rear
suspension is bottoming-out or excessive
contact with the skid-plates is happening,
reduce the vehicle's speed to avoid
potential damage to your vehicle.
If you are driving in a dusty area, be sure to
leave ample distance between your vehicle
and any other vehicles to allow for
adequate vision.
Four-wheel drive vehicles have advantages
over two-wheel drive vehicles in snow and
ice but can skid like any other vehicle. If
your vehicle slides when driving on snowy
or icy roads, turn the steering wheel in the
direction of the slide until you regain
control. Avoid sudden applications of
power and quick changes of direction on
snow and ice. Slowly and steadily apply
the accelerator when starting from a full
stop. Avoid sudden braking.
When driving off-road verify that your
wipers and washers are working properly
and reduce your speed for better visibility.
When driving in desert conditions, we
recommend driving with your headlamps
on to help other drivers easily see you.
When convoying with other vehicles, we
recommend that communication is used,
and the lead vehicle notify other vehicles
of upcoming obstacles.
WARNING: Do not become
overconfident in the ability of four-wheel
drive vehicles. Although a four-wheel
drive vehicle may accelerate better than
a two-wheel drive vehicle in low traction
situations, it won't stop any faster than
two-wheel drive vehicles. Always drive
at a safe speed.
Keep available ground clearance in mind
and pick a route that minimizes the risk of
catching the underside of the vehicle on
an obstacle.
When negotiating low speed obstacles,
applying light brake pressure in conjunction
with the throttle allows you to negotiate
the obstacle in a more controlled manner.
Make sure you allow sufficient distance
between your vehicle and other vehicles
for stopping.
Driving off-road requires a high amount of
concentration. Even if your local law does
not prohibit drinking alcohol when driving
off-road we do not recommend it.
In emergency stopping situations, do not
pump the brake pedal, apply the brake
firmly.

Driving Hints
Driving In Sand
If you lose traction on your wheels facing
uphill, stop and choose a more suitable
route.
When driving over sand, try to keep all four
wheels on the most solid area of the trail.
Drive through the terrain without varying
vehicle speed. Apply the accelerator and
avoid excessive wheel slip.
Leave a generous gap between your
vehicle and other vehicles to minimize the
risk of damage from flying gravel. Avoid
dust clouds as they reduce visibility.
Use the vehicle's momentum to maintain
forward motion in sand. Avoid coming to
a stop on steep sand slopes as the vehicle
may not be able to continue forward after
it has stopped.
Before navigating on uneven ground,
secure anything inside the vehicle. If
possible, remove any roof-rack items. Use
the lowest gear possible and approach the
obstacle at a slow speed.
Driving In Mud
If your vehicle begins to slide down a slope,
steer downhill and gently apply the
throttle. If you lose traction on your uphill
wheels, stop immediately and choose a
more suitable route.
Be cautious of sudden changes in vehicle
speed or direction when you are driving in
mud.
Even four-wheel drive vehicles can lose
traction in slick mud. If your vehicle does
slide, steer in the direction of the slide until
you regain control of your vehicle.
Approach logs, rocky steps or ditches
diagonally. Keep at least three wheels on
the ground at all times.
Climbing A Hill
After driving through mud, clean off residue
stuck to the wheels and tires and rotating
driveshafts. Excess mud stuck on the
wheels and tires and rotating driveshafts
can cause an imbalance that could
damage drive components.
WARNING: Extreme care should
be used when steering the vehicle in
reverse down a slope so as not to cause
the vehicle to swerve out of control.
Note: The vehicle brakes are less effective
when wet or muddy.
Although natural obstacles can make it
necessary to travel diagonally up or down
a hill or steep incline, try to drive straight
up or straight down.
Driving Over Rocks and Gravel
Gravel is a constantly changing, low-grip
surface. Driving at slow speeds on gravel
reduces the risk of losing traction when you
stop, accelerate or turn a corner.
Note: Avoid turning on steep slopes or
hills. A danger lies in losing traction, slipping
sideways and possible vehicle roll over.
When approaching large rocks, position
the vehicle so that the tires pass over the
largest obstacle.
Whenever driving on a hill, you must first
determine the route you can use.
When climbing a steep slope or hill, start
in a lower gear rather than downshifting to
a lower gear from a higher gear. This
reduces strain on the engine and the
possibility of stalling.
Note: Never attempt to straddle a rock that
is large enough to strike your axles or
undercarriage.
Note: Never attempt to drive over a rock
which is large enough to contact the door
sills if your vehicle does not have rock rails.

2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Driving Hints
The key to a safe crossing is the water
depth, current and bottom of the water's
condition. On soft bottoms, the vehicle
sinks in, effectively increasing the water
level on the vehicle. Make sure to consider
this when determining the depth of water.
If your vehicle stalls, do not try to turn
around because this could cause your
vehicle to roll over. It is better to reverse
back to a safe location.
Do not drive over the crest of a hill without
seeing what conditions are on the other
side. Do not drive in reverse over a hill
without the aid of an observer.
Determine the depth and speed of the
current before attempting a water crossing.
Be aware that obstacles and debris may
be beneath the water’s surface.
If the vehicle is unable to make it up the
hill, do not attempt to turn back down the
slope.
Note: Cross flowing water at an angle
heading slightly upstream.
Apply the accelerator just enough for the
wheels to climb the hill.
Note: You should tread lightly and avoid
damage to the environment.
Note: Too much acceleration can cause
the tires to slip, spin or lose traction,
resulting in loss of vehicle control.
Drive slowly when crossing water. Proceed
with a constant slow speed lightly pressing
on the accelerator.
Descending A Hill:
• Use the same gear you would use to
climb the hill.
• Do not descend in neutral.
• Disengage overdrive.
• Avoid sudden and excessive braking.
Drive through the water very slowly when
entering, then build up momentum. Keep
your vehicle moving at a steady pace.
Note: Do not try to accelerate through the
water crossing.
When driving too fast in water or through
deep water, the engine, transmission,
transfer case, axles, electrical components
or vehicle interior could ingest water. Water
can cause permanent damage that may
not be covered by your vehicle warranty.
See Driving Through Water Limitations
(page 294).
Note: The front wheels have to be turning
in order to steer your vehicle.
When descending a steep hill in a manual
transmission vehicle do not leave the
vehicle in gear with the clutch pressed. This
could cause damage to your driveline.
Driving Through Water
Note: Failure to follow the recommended
speeds can result in vehicle damage.
WARNING: Do not attempt to
cross a deep, fast flowing body of water.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death.
Never stop or shut a vehicle off when
crossing deep water unless your vehicle
ingested water into the engine air intake.
If the engine stalls, do not attempt to
restart it.
Ease off the accelerator as you reach the
other side to diminish the front wave. Apply
the accelerator slowly and as necessary
to climb out of the other side.
As the water depth increases, you must
reduce your vehicle speed to avoid
potential vehicle damage.

Driving Hints
Avoid Getting High-Centered
Muddy waters can reduce the cooling
system effectiveness by depositing debris
into the radiator.
Always keep available ground clearance
in mind and pick a route that minimizes the
risk of catching the underside of the vehicle
on an obstacle and getting high-centered.
Extra care must be taken crossing any type
of water. Do not drive into water unless
necessary. You should only drive through
areas that are designated and approved.
Freeing A Stuck Vehicle
High currents even in shallow water can
wash the dirt out from around your tires or
push your vehicle across slippery rocks or
surfaces.
WARNING: Do not spin the wheels
at over 34 mph (55 km/h). The tires may
fail and injure a passenger or bystander.
Never attempt to cross flowing water that
is deeper than your vehicles ground
clearance. Even in low currents your
vehicles body surface area can be pushed
downstream and out of control.
Recovery hooks are mounted to the
vehicle's structure and are used to pull out
the vehicle from a surface or location when
stuck. Recover your vehicle using various
towing apparatus attached to your
recovery hook such as winch, open hook,
or strap.
Do not cross any body of water that is fast
flowing and rising, wait for the flow rate to
reduce.
Note: Do not use recovery hooks to
recreationally tow your vehicle. See
Recreationally Towing Your Vehicle (page
307).
Determine exit points that are downstream
of your entry point to allow for drifting.
If there are other vehicles ahead, wait until
they’ve left the water. Unsettled water can
make a safe passage more challenging.
If your vehicle gets stuck in mud or snow,
you may rock it out by shifting between
forward and reverse gears, stopping
between shifts in a steady pattern. Press
the accelerator in each gear.
Know your vehicle’s abilities and be able
to recover it if something goes wrong.
Keep the doors fully closed during a water
crossing.
Note: Do not rock your vehicle if the engine
is not at normal operating temperature
damage to the transmission may occur.
Vehicles used to traverse water regularly
should be periodically inspected for signs
of water ingestion in all of the vehicle's
fluids. If water is found inside your vehicle
fluids, service your vehicle or see an
authorized dealer.
Note: Do not rock your vehicle for more
than a minute damage to the transmission
and tires may occur or the engine may
overheat.
After driving through water and as soon as
it is safe to do so, check the brakes, horn,
lights, and steering wheel to make sure
everything is still in working order.
If you are unable to free your vehicle call
roadside assistance. See Roadside
Assistance (page 299).

OFF-ROAD DRIVING AIDS
Crossing A Ravine, Gully, Ditch,
Washout Or Rut
Selecting an Off-Road Drive Mode
Review the path ahead before attempting
to cross any obstacle. Review the obstacle
from outside the vehicle for an
understanding of the terrain condition in
front of and behind the obstacle. Approach
obstacles slowly and inch the vehicle over.
Ditches and washouts should be crossed
at a 45 degree angle when possible.
Using the appropriate drive mode increases
your vehicle's control. See G.O.A.T. Mode
Control (page 242).
Note: Drive modes are selected by using
the Goes Over Any-type of Terrain G.O.A.T.
MODES controller.
Using Four-Wheel Drive
Driving Over Logs
Your vehicle has a four-wheel drive system
that offers various modes to help you
optimize traction on any off-road surface.
See Four-Wheel Drive (page 182).
Review the path ahead before attempting
to cross any obstacle. Review the obstacle
from outside the vehicle for an
understanding of the terrain condition in
front of and behind the obstacle.
Using the Stabilizer Bar
Disconnect
Approach obstacles slowly and inch the
vehicle over, approaching at a 15 degree
angle.
The stabilizer bar disconnect improves
suspension articulation, improving traction
and comfort in rough terrain.
Note: It is best to have a front tire on top of
the log when the other begins to climb over.
The vehicle's disconnect system is
hydraulically actuated.
If a large obstacle near the log such as a
rock cannot be avoided, choose a path that
places the rock directly under the tire
rather than the undercarriage of the
vehicle. This helps prevent damage to the
vehicle.
Your vehicle is capable of disconnecting
under high load. Your vehicle is also
capable of reconnecting under all
conditions.
It is not necessary for the vehicle to be on
level ground in order to reconnect the
stabilizer bar. See Stabilizer Bar

Driving Hints
Using the Front and Rear
Differential Lock
Use this when driving over large obstacles,
such as rocks or logs, to help maintain a
constant vehicle speed.
When engaged, the front and rear
differential lock provides additional
traction to your vehicle by forcing either
the two rear wheels or two front wheels to
turn at the same speed.
In 4H, the system offers lift pedal braking
and auto hill hold functionality. See What
Is Trail One Pedal Drive (page 208).
You can activate and deactivate the front
and rear differential lock on the fly within
the operating speed range. See Electronic
Locking Differential (page 190).
Using Trail Turn Assist
Note: Trail one pedal drive is only available
when the vehicle is in 4H or 4L.
The feature reduces the turn radius of the
vehicle on off-road surfaces.
Using Trail Control
The system reduces driver effort to
negotiate difficult off-road terrain by
allowing the vehicle to make a tight turn
in a single maneuver that might otherwise
require a three point turn. See Trail Turn
Assist (page 212).
The system works in a similar manner to
cruise control in off-road conditions. Trail
Control provides you the ability to
maneuver the vehicle without using the
throttle and brake pedals.
Trail Control allows you to set a speed
between 1 mph (1.6 km/h) to 14 mph
(23 km/h) in a forward motion and 1 mph
(1.6 km/h) to 5 mph (8 km/h) in reverse.
The system controls acceleration and
braking in difficult off-road environments,
which allows you to focus on steering. See
Trail Control (page 207).
Note: Trail turn assist is only available when
the vehicle is in 4H or 4L.
Note: Trail turn assist cannot activate if the
rear differential is locked.
What Are Rock Rails (If Equipped)
Rock rails protect the rocker and body side
from damage and provide a sliding surface
to allow the vehicle to cross boulders and
rock ledges.
Trail Control Performance:
• Manages wheel slip to maximize
traction.
• Removes the need for you to use both
feet when driving in off-road situations.
• Provides braking to maximize traction
in descents.
• Gives you confidence in difficult
environments.
Rock rails also can act as a pivot point to
sharply turn the vehicle in tight spaces with
high walls or rocks present.
AFTER DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE
OFF-ROAD
Using Trail One Pedal Drive
WARNING: After off-road use,
before returning to the road, check the
wheels and tires for damage. Off-road
use may cause damage to your wheels
and tires that can lead to tire failure, loss
of vehicle control, serious injury or death.
Trail one pedal drive coordinates
propulsive and braking torque through your
application of the accelerator pedal to
simulate a two footed driving technique.

Driving Hints
Driving off-road places more stress on your
vehicle than most on-road driving. After
driving off-road, check for damage to the
wheels, chassis and underbody.
Note: If you have removed the impacted
material from the wheels and your vehicle
still has a vibration check your vehicle for
damage or see an authorized dealer.
Inspect the underbody of your vehicle by
checking tires, body structure, steering,
suspension, and exhaust system for
damage.
Inspect the exhaust system for damage or
looseness.
Make sure that the brakes are in proper
working order and free of any mud, stones
and debris, which can become trapped
around the brake rotor, backing plate and
caliper.
Inspect the tires for any cuts in the tread
or sidewall area. Also inspect the sidewall
for any bulge indicating damage to the tire.
Make sure the tires are inflated to proper
tire pressure as indicated on the tire
placard.
Inspect the wheels for dents, cracks, or
other damage.
Inspect undercarriage fasteners. If any are
loose or damaged, tighten or replace
ensuring that the proper torque
specification is used.
Check the radiator for mud and debris and
clean as needed.
Check that the air filter is clean and dry.
Inspect for torn or punctured boots on ball
joints, half shafts, steering gears.
Remove accumulations of plants or brush.
These things could be a fire hazard or hide
damage to the fuel lines, brake hoses and
propeller shafts.
Refit the front license plate if removed
previously.
Make sure the grille and radiator are clear
of any obstructions that may affect
cooling.
DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE AT HIGH
SPEEDS
After extended operation in mud, sand,
water, or similar dirty conditions, inspect
the wipers and washers to make sure they
are working.
Before off-road driving in unfamiliar areas
at high speeds, do a low speed
reconnaissance run to become aware of
any obstacles that you could encounter.
Note: Mud caked windows are hard to see
through and can damage wiper blades or
motor.
Your vehicle can incur damage if driven
beyond its capabilities. Skid plates and
rock rails are designed to help limit
damage to vital components and exterior
finishes, but cannot prevent all damage if
driven in extreme off-road conditions.
Damage to skid plates, rock rails and
exterior finishes as well as bent, cracked
or broken body, frame and chassis
components may not be covered by
warranty.
Check wipers for debris or anything that
may scratch the windshield.
If you experience unusual vibration after
driving in mud, slush or similar conditions,
check the wheels for impacted material.
Impacted material can cause vibrations
when driving and wheel imbalance.
Remove the material to reduce the
vibration.
It is important that you take the time to
become familiar with the controls and
dynamics of your vehicle before
attempting higher speed off-road driving.

2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Driving Hints
Some points to consider:
• Slowly build up speed. Initially, drive at
a speed that allows ample time to fully
assess the terrain around you and to
understand how the vehicle responds
to both the terrain and your inputs.
Increase speed as comfort increases,
being mindful of how the vehicle
responds to various conditions at
different speeds.
• Find a wide open place to experiment
with different functions on your vehicle
and different driving techniques. Try a
given maneuver with different
functions, such as drive modes,
four-wheel drive modes or switching
the electronic locking differential on
and off and see how your vehicle
responds. If the vehicle is tending to
push straight ahead when trying to
negotiate a turn, a light application of
the brake when turning could help turn
your vehicle. A wider entry to a corner
or entering a corner more slowly could
help your vehicle turn and allow you to
apply the throttle sooner after
negotiating the turn.
• As speed increases, look farther ahead
of the vehicle so that there is time to
react to oncoming obstacles.
Remember that in many off-road
environments, obstacles can be hard
to see until they are relatively near. A
good strategy is to alternate between
looking far ahead and up closer to the
front of your vehicle when driving.
• Remember that you may not be the
only one in a particular recreational
area. Be aware of others in your area.
This is especially true of motorcycles
and all-terrain vehicles that may be
more difficult to spot than a full-sized
vehicle.
•
•
When driving in desert conditions, the
midpoint of the day is the most difficult
time to see many of the small ridges
and dips due to flat shadows from the
sun being at its highest point. Extreme
care should be taken at these times.
We encourage you to switch on
off-road modes for off-road driving.
See G.O.A.T. Mode Control (page
242).
COLD WEATHER
PRECAUTIONS
The functional operation of some
components and systems can be affected
at temperatures below approximately
-13°F (-25°C).
BREAKING-IN
Your vehicle requires a break-in period. For
the first 1,000 mi (1,600 km), avoid driving
at high speeds, heavy braking, aggressive
shifting or using your vehicle to tow. During
this time, your vehicle may exhibit some
unusual driving characteristics.
DRIVING ECONOMICALLY
The following helps to improve fuel
consumption:
• Drive smoothly, accelerate gently and
anticipate the road ahead to avoid
heavy braking.
• Regularly check your tire pressures and
make sure that they are inflated to the
correct pressure.
• Follow the recommended maintenance
schedule and carry out the
recommended checks.

ACCESSING THE FRONT TOWING
POINT
A
Front recovery hooks.
Note: Do not apply a load to the recovery
hooks that is greater than the gross vehicle
weight rating of your vehicle.
Before using recovery hooks:
• Make sure all attaching points are
secure and capable of withstanding
the applied load.
• Do not use chains, cables or tow straps
with metal hook ends.
• Only use recovery straps that have a
minimum breaking strength two to
three times the gross vehicle weight of
the stuck vehicle.
• Make sure the recovery strap is in good
condition and free of visible cuts, tears
or damage.
WARNING: Using recovery hooks
is dangerous and should only be done by
a person familiar with proper vehicle
recovery safety practices. Improper use
of recovery hooks may cause hook failure
or separation from the vehicle and could
result in serious injury or death.
WARNING: Slowly remove the
slack from the recovery strap prior to
pulling. Failure to do so can introduce
significantly higher loads which can
cause the recovery hooks to break off, or
the recovery strap to fail which can cause
serious injury or death.

Make sure the stuck vehicle is not
loaded heavier than its gross vehicle
weight rating specified on the
certification label.
Align the tow vehicle and stuck vehicle
in a straight line, within 10 degrees.
Keep bystanders to the sides of the

We recommend the use of a wheel lift and
dollies or flatbed equipment to tow your
vehicle. Vehicle damage could occur if
towed incorrectly, or by any other means.
TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLE
We recommend towing a four-wheel drive
vehicle with all wheels off the ground, such
as using a wheel lift and dollies or flatbed
equipment. However, it is acceptable to
use a wheel lift to raise the rear of your
vehicle so long as, depending on vehicle
configuration, you perform the following
before towing:
•
•
Make sure front-wheel and rear-wheel
drive vehicles have their designated drive
wheels off the ground regardless of towing
direction. Use tow dollies to prevent
damage to the transmission.
•
If your vehicle has an electronic
shift-on-the-fly transfer case, make
sure you switch the four-wheel drive
control to the 2H position before
towing.
Note: Towing an electronic shift-on-the-fly
four-wheel drive vehicle with the front
wheels on the ground without disengaging
the front hubs could cause damage to the
automatic transmission.
Note: Towing a two-wheel drive vehicle or
an electronic shift-on-the-fly four-wheel
drive vehicle with the rear wheels on the
ground for more than 50 mi (80 km) or
faster than 35 mph (56 km/h) could cause
damage to the automatic transmission.
E143886
If you need to tow your vehicle, contact a
professional towing service or your
roadside assistance service provider.
Your manufacturer produces a towing
manual for all authorized tow truck
operators. Have your tow truck operator
refer to this manual for proper hook-up
and towing procedures.

1.
Unscrew the cap slowly. Any pressure
escapes as you unscrew the cap.
2. Add enough prediluted coolant to
reach the correct level.
Note: We do not recommend the use of
recycled coolant.
WARNING: Do not add engine
coolant when the engine is on or the
cooling system is hot. Failure to follow
this instruction could result in personal
injury.
3. Replace the coolant reservoir cap. Turn
the cap clockwise until it contacts the
hard stop.
4. Check the coolant level in the coolant
reservoir the next few times you drive
your vehicle. If necessary, repeat step
2.
WARNING: Do not add coolant
further than the MAX mark.
WARNING: Do not put coolant in
the windshield washer reservoir. If
sprayed on the windshield, coolant could
make it difficult to see through the
windshield.
If you have to add more than 1.1 qt (1 L) of
engine coolant per month, have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Operating an engine with a low level of
coolant can result in engine overheating
and possible engine damage.
Note: Do not use stop leak pellets, cooling
system sealants, or non-specified additives
as they can cause damage to the engine
cooling or heating systems. Resulting
component damage may not be covered by
the vehicle Warranty.
In case of emergency, you can add a large
amount of water without engine coolant
in order to reach a vehicle service location.
Service your vehicle as soon as possible.
Note: Automotive fluids are not
interchangeable.
It is very important to use prediluted
coolant approved to the correct
specification in order to avoid plugging the
small passageways in the engine cooling
system. See Capacities and
Specifications (page 393). Do not mix
different colors or types of coolant in your
vehicle. Mixing of engine coolants or using
an incorrect coolant may harm the engine
or cooling system components and could
void the vehicle Warranty.
Water alone, without engine coolant, can
cause engine damage from corrosion,
overheating or freezing.
Do not use the following as a coolant
substitute, as they can cause engine
damage from overheating or freezing:
• Alcohol.
• Methanol.
• Brine.
• Any coolant mixed with alcohol or
methanol antifreeze.
Note: If prediluted coolant is not available,
use the approved concentrated coolant
diluting it to 50/50 with deionized or
distilled water. See Capacities and
Specifications (page 393). Using water that
has not been deionized may contribute to
deposit formation, corrosion and plugging
of the small cooling system passageways.
Do not add extra inhibitors or additives to
the coolant. These can be harmful and
compromise the corrosion protection of
the coolant.
To top up the coolant level do the
following:

Maintenance
Severe Climates
A warning lamp illuminates and
a message may appear in the
information display.
If you drive in extremely cold climates, you
may need to increase the coolant
concentration above 50%.
If the engine reaches a preset
over-temperature condition, the engine
automatically switches to alternating
cylinder operation. Each disabled cylinder
acts as an air pump and cools the engine.
Note: A coolant concentration of 60%
provides improved freeze point protection.
Coolant concentrations above 60%
decrease the overheat protection
characteristics of the coolant and could
cause engine damage.
When this occurs, your vehicle still
operates, however:
• Engine power is limited.
• The air conditioning system turns off.
If you drive in extremely hot climates, you
may need to decrease the coolant
concentration to 40%.
Continued operation increases the engine
temperature, causing the engine to
completely shut down. Your steering and
braking effort increases in this situation.
Note: A coolant concentration of 40%
provides improved overheat protection.
Coolant concentrations below 40%
decrease the overheat and corrosion
protection characteristics of the coolant and
could cause engine damage.
When the engine temperature cools, you
can re-start the engine. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible to minimize
engine damage.
Coolant Change
Change the coolant at specific mileage
intervals. Refer to the scheduled
maintenance information. See Normal
Scheduled Maintenance (page 455).
When Fail-Safe Mode Is Activated
WARNING: Fail-safe mode is for
use during emergencies only. Operate
your vehicle in fail-safe mode only as
long as necessary to bring your vehicle
to rest in a safe location and seek
immediate repairs. When in fail-safe
mode, your vehicle will have limited
power, will not be able to maintain
high-speed operation, and may
completely shut down without warning,
potentially losing engine power, power
steering assist, and power brake assist,
which may increase the possibility of a
crash resulting in serious injury.
Note: Dispose of used coolant in the
appropriate manner.
Follow your community's regulations and
standards for recycling and disposing of
automotive fluids.
Fail-Safe Cooling
Fail-safe cooling allows you to temporarily
drive your vehicle before any incremental
component damage occurs. The fail-safe
distance depends on ambient
temperature, vehicle load and terrain.
How Fail-Safe Cooling Works
If the engine begins to overheat,
the coolant temperature gauge
moves toward the red zone:

Maintenance
Engine Coolant Temperature
Management (If Equipped)
WARNING: Do not remove the
coolant reservoir cap when the engine is
on or the cooling system is hot. Wait 10
minutes for the cooling system to cool
down. Cover the coolant reservoir cap
with a thick cloth to prevent the
possibility of scalding and slowly remove
the cap. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in personal injury.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
crash and injury, be prepared that the
vehicle speed may reduce and the
vehicle may not be able to accelerate
with full power until the coolant
temperature reduces.
If you tow a trailer with your vehicle, the
engine may temporarily reach a higher
temperature during severe operating
conditions, for example ascending a long
or steep grade in high ambient
temperatures.
Your vehicle has limited engine power
when in the fail-safe mode, drive your
vehicle with caution. Your vehicle does not
maintain high-speed operation and the
engine could operate poorly.
Remember that the engine is capable of
automatically shutting down to prevent
engine damage. In this situation:
At this time, you may notice the coolant
temperature gauge moves toward the red
zone and a message may appear in the
information display.
1.
Pull off the road as soon as safely
possible and switch the engine off.
2. If you are a member of a roadside
assistance program, we recommend
that you contact your roadside
assistance service provider.
3. If this is not possible, wait for a short
period of time for the engine to cool.
4. Check the coolant level. If the coolant
level is at or below the minimum mark,
add prediluted coolant immediately.
5. When the engine temperature cools,
you can re-start the engine. Have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible to
minimize engine damage.
Note: Driving your vehicle without repair
increases the chance of engine damage.
You may notice a reduction in vehicle
speed caused by reduced engine power in
order to manage the engine coolant
temperature. Your vehicle may enter this
mode if certain high-temperature and
high-load conditions take place. The
amount of speed reduction depends on
vehicle loading, grade and ambient
temperature. If this occurs, there is no
need to stop your vehicle. You can
continue to drive.
The air conditioning may automatically
turn on and off during severe operating
conditions to protect the engine from
overheating. When the coolant
temperature decreases to the normal
operating temperature, the air conditioning
turns on.
If the coolant temperature gauge moves
fully into the red zone, or if the coolant
temperature warning or service engine
soon messages appear in your information
display, do the following:

coolant temperature gauge needle
returns to the normal position. If the
temperature does not drop after
several minutes, follow the remaining
steps.
Switch the engine off and wait for it to
cool. Check the coolant level.
If the coolant level is at or below the
minimum mark, add prediluted coolant
immediately.
If the coolant level is normal, restart
the engine and continue.

TIRE QUALITY GRADES
Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a
comparative rating based on the
wear rate of the tire when tested
under controlled conditions on a
specified government test course.
For example, a tire graded 150
would wear 1½ times as well on
the government course as a tire
graded 100. The relative
performance of tires depends
upon the actual conditions of their
use, however, and may depart
significantly from the norm due to
variations in driving habits, service
practices, and differences in road
characteristics and climate.

test wheel. Sustained high
temperature can cause the
material of the tire to degenerate
and reduce tire life, and excessive
temperature can lead to sudden
tire failure. The grade C
corresponds to a level of
performance which all passenger
car tires must meet under the
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard No. 139. Grades B and A
represent higher levels of
performance on the laboratory
test wheel than the minimum
required by law.
WARNING: The traction
grade assigned to this tire is
based on straight-ahead braking
traction tests, and does not
include acceleration, cornering,
hydroplaning or peak traction
characteristics.
The traction grades, from highest
to lowest are AA, A, B, and C. The
grades represent the tire’s ability
to stop on wet pavement as
measured under controlled
conditions on specified
government test surfaces of
asphalt and concrete. A tire
marked C may have poor traction
performance.
INFORMATION ON THE TIRE
SIDEWALL
Both United States and Canada
Federal regulations require tire
manufacturers to place
standardized information on the
sidewall of all tires. This
information identifies and
describes the fundamental
characteristics of the tire and also
provides a U.S. DOT Tire
Identification Number for safety
standard certification and in case
of a recall.
Temperature A B C
WARNING: The
temperature grade for this tire is
established for a tire that is
properly inflated and not
overloaded. Excessive speed,
underinflation, or excessive
loading, either separately or in
combination, can cause heat
buildup and possible tire failure.
The temperature grades are A
(the highest), B and C,
representing the tire’s resistance
to the generation of heat and its
ability to dissipate heat when
tested under controlled conditions
on a specified indoor laboratory

This begins with the letters DOT
and indicates that the tire meets
all federal standards. The next
two numbers or letters are the
plant code designating where it
was manufactured, the next two
are the tire size code and the last
four numbers represent the week
and year the tire was built. For
example, the numbers 317 mean
the 31st week of 1997. After 2000,
the numbers go to four digits. For
example, 2501 means the 25th
week of 2001. The numbers in

TIRE REPLACEMENT
REQUIREMENTS
AGE
WARNING: Tires degrade
over time depending on many
factors such as weather, storage
conditions, and conditions of use
(load, speed, inflation pressure)
the tires experience throughout
their lives.
In general, tires should be
replaced after six years
regardless of tread wear.
However, heat caused by hot
climates or frequent high loading
conditions can accelerate the
aging process and may require
tires to be replaced more
frequently.
You should replace your spare
tire when you replace the road
tires or after six years due to
aging even if it has not been
used.
Tire Replacement
Requirements
Your vehicle is equipped with tires
designed to provide a safe ride
and handling capability.

Wheel and Tire Information
WARNING: Only use
replacement tires and wheels
that are the same size, load
index, speed rating and type
(such as P-metric versus
LT-metric or all-season versus
all-terrain) as those originally
provided by Ford. The
recommended tire and wheel
size may be found on either the
Safety Compliance Certification
Label (affixed to either the door
hinge pillar, door-latch post, or
the door edge that meets the
door-latch post, next to the
driver's seating position), or the
Tire Label which is located on
the B-Pillar or edge of the
driver's door. If this information
is not found on these labels, then
you should contact your
authorized dealer as soon as
possible. Use of any tire or wheel
not recommended by Ford can
affect the safety and
performance of your vehicle,
which could result in an
increased risk of loss of vehicle
control, vehicle rollover, personal
injury and death.
WARNING: To reduce the
risk of serious injury, when
mounting replacement tires and
wheels, you should not exceed
the maximum pressure indicated
on the sidewall of the tire to set
the beads without additional
precautions listed below. If the
beads do not seat at the
maximum pressure indicated,
re-lubricate and try again.
WARNING: For a mounting
pressure more than 20 psi
(1.38 bar) greater than the
maximum pressure, a Ford
dealer or other tire service
professional should do the
mounting.
WARNING: Always inflate
steel carcass tires with a remote
air fill with the person inflating
standing at a minimum of 12 ft
(3.66 m) away from the wheel
and tire assembly.
WARNING: When inflating
the tire for mounting pressures
up to 20 psi (1.38 bar) greater

wheel bead seat area again.
Wheel and Tire Information
•
Stand at a minimum of 12 ft
(3.66 m) away from the wheel
and tire assembly.
• Use both eye and ear
protection.
Important: Remember to replace
the wheel valve stems when the
road tires are replaced on your
vehicle.
If a four tire rotation is being
followed, it is recommended that
both front tires or both rear tires
generally be replaced as a pair if
the two remaining worn tires still
have usable tread depth. If a five
tire rotation is being followed and
the fifth tire is used to replace a
single unrepairable tire, a four tire
rotation should be followed with
the undamaged tires. Any
replacement for the damaged tire
should be used as a dedicated
spare until the remaining tires are
replaced as a set.
If the tire pressure monitoring
system indicator is flashing, your
system is malfunctioning. Your
replacement tire might be
incompatible with your tire
pressure monitoring system, or
some component of the system
may be damaged.
USING SNOW CHAINS
WARNING: Do not exceed 30 mph
(50 km/h). Failure to follow this
instruction could result in the loss of
control of your vehicle, personal injury or
death.
WARNING: Do not use snow chains
on snow-free roads.
WARNING: Only fit snow chains to
specified tires.
WARNING: If your vehicle is fitted
with wheel trims, remove them before
fitting snow chains.
To avoid potential Four-Wheel
Drive (4WD) malfunction or
(4WD) system damage, it is
recommended to replace all tires
used in the tire rotation rather
than mixing significantly worn tires
with new tires.
The tire pressure sensors mounted
in the wheels (originally installed
on your vehicle) are not designed
to be used in aftermarket wheels.
The use of wheels or tires not
recommended may affect the
operation of your tire pressure
monitoring system.
WARNING: If you choose to install
snow tires on your vehicle, they must be
the same size, construction, and load
range as the original tires listed on the
tire placard, and they must be installed
on all four wheels. Mixing tires of
different size or construction on your
vehicle can adversely affect your
vehicle's handling and braking, and may
lead to loss of vehicle control.
Only use snow chains on rear wheels.
Install snow chains in pairs. Do not use
self-tensioning snow chains.
Only use snow chains on the following
specified tire sizes:

Tire Care
CHECKING THE TIRE
PRESSURES
WARNING: Do not use the
tire pressure displayed in the
information display as a tire
pressure gauge. Failure to follow
this instruction could result in
personal injury or death.
Safe operation of your vehicle
requires that your tires are
properly inflated. Every day before
you drive, check your tires.
At least once a month and before
long trips, inspect each tire and
check the tire pressure with a tire
gauge. Inflate all tires to the
recommended inflation pressure.
See Inflating the Tires (page
379).
Use the recommended cold
inflation pressure for optimum tire
performance and wear.
Under-inflation or over-inflation
may cause uneven treadwear
patterns.
Inflate your tires to the
recommended inflation pressure
even if it is less than the maximum
inflation pressure information
found on the tire. You can find the
tire label with the recommended
tire inflation pressure next to the
tire size on the B-Pillar or the edge
of the driver door.
The recommended tire inflation
pressure is also found on the
Safety Compliance Certification
Label, affixed to either the door
hinge pillar, door-latch post, or the
door edge that meets the
door-latch on the B-pillar, or on
the edge of the driver door.
Failure to follow the tire pressure
recommendations can cause
uneven treadwear patterns and
adversely affect the way your
vehicle handles.
INFLATING THE TIRES
WARNING: Under-inflation
is the most common cause of
tire failures and may result in
severe tire cracking, tread
separation or blowout, with
unexpected loss of vehicle
control and increased risk of
injury. Under-inflation increases
sidewall flexing and rolling
resistance, resulting in heat
buildup and internal damage to
the tire. It also may result in
unnecessary tire stress, irregular
wear, loss of vehicle control and
accidents. A tire can lose up to
half of its air pressure and not
appear to be flat!

Tire Care
INSPECTING THE TIRE FOR
DAMAGE
INSPECTING THE TIRE FOR
WEAR
Inspect the tire sidewalls for
cracking, cuts, bruises and other
signs of damage or excessive
wear. If internal damage to the tire
is suspected, have the tire
dismounted and inspected in case
it needs to be repaired or replaced.
For your safety, tires that are
damaged or show signs of
excessive wear should not be used
because they are more likely to
blow out or fail.
Periodically inspect the tire treads
and sidewalls for damage, such
as bulges in the tread or sidewalls,
cracks in the tread groove and
separation in the tread or sidewall.
If damage is observed or
suspected, have the tire inspected
by a tire professional.
E142546
When the tread is worn down to
one sixteenth of an inch (2 mm),
tires must be replaced to help
prevent your vehicle from skidding
and hydroplaning. Built-in
treadwear indicators, or wear bars,
which look like narrow strips of
smooth rubber across the tread
will appear on the tire when the
tread is worn down to one
sixteenth of an inch (2 mm).
When the tire tread wears down
to the same height as these wear
bars, the tire is worn out and must
be replaced.
The tires should also be balanced
periodically. An unbalanced tire
and wheel assembly may result in
irregular tire wear.
Periodically inspect the tire treads
for uneven or excessive wear and
remove objects such as stones,
nails or glass that may be wedged
in the tread grooves.
Safety Practices
WARNING: If your vehicle
is stuck in snow, mud or sand, do
not rapidly spin the tires;
spinning the tires can tear the
tire and cause an explosion. A
tire can explode in as little as
three to five seconds.
WARNING: Do not spin the
wheels at over 34 mph
(55 km/h). The tires may fail and
injure a passenger or bystander.

Tire Care
Highway Hazards
Wheel misalignment in the front
or the rear can cause uneven and
rapid treadwear of your tires and
should be corrected by an
authorized dealer.
No matter how carefully you drive,
there is always the possibility that
you could eventually have a flat
tire on the highway. Drive slowly
to the closest safe area out of
traffic. This could further damage
the flat tire, but your safety is
more important.
If you feel a sudden vibration or
ride disturbance while driving, or
you suspect your tire or vehicle
has been damaged, immediately
reduce your speed. Drive with
caution until you can safely pull
off the road. Stop and inspect the
tires for damage. If a tire is
under-inflated or damaged,
deflate it, remove the wheel and
replace it with your spare tire and
wheel. If you cannot detect a
cause, have the vehicle towed to
the nearest repair facility or tire
dealer to have the vehicle
inspected.
INSPECTING THE WHEEL
VALVE STEMS
Check the valve stems for holes,
cracks, or cuts that could permit
air leakage.
TIRE ROTATION
WARNING: If the tire label
shows different tire pressures for
the front and rear tires and the
vehicle has a tire pressure
monitoring system, then you
need to update the settings for
the system sensors. Always
perform the system reset
procedure after tire rotation. If
you do not reset the system, it
may not provide a low tire
pressure warning when
necessary.
Tire and Wheel Alignment
A bad jolt from hitting a curb or
pothole can cause the front end
of your vehicle to become
misaligned or cause damage to
your tires. If your vehicle seems to
pull to one side when you are
driving, the wheels could be out of
alignment. Have an authorized
dealer check the wheel alignment
periodically.
Note: If your tires show uneven
wear ask an authorized dealer to
check for and correct any wheel
misalignment, tire imbalance or
mechanical problem involved
before tire rotation.
Note: After having your tires
rotated, inflation pressure must be
checked and adjusted to the
vehicle requirements.
381
2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Tire Care
Rotating your tires at the
recommended interval, as
indicated in the scheduled
maintenance chapter, will help
your tires wear more evenly,
providing better tire performance
and longer tire life.
For the best tire life, a five tire
rotation is recommended that
includes the matching spare tire
mounted on the back of the
vehicle. This rotation requires a
forced re-learning of your tire
pressure monitor system sensors
by your vehicle, and should be
performed by an authorized dealer
or a service center to ensure the
tire pressure monitor system will
provide proper warning at all
times. When performing the tire
rotation yourself, a four tire
rotation is recommended, without
using the spare tire in the rotation,
so that no tire pressure monitor
system sensor re-learn is required.
If a five tire rotation is performed
without a tire pressure monitor
system sensor re-learn, the
system may not provide a low tire
pressure warning when necessary.
Keep in mind that a spare tire that
is not used in the tire rotation
should only be used temporarily
in the event of a flat tire, not as a
permanent replacement. The
spare tire should always be
replaced if it exceeds 6 years of
age, regardless of whether it is
part of the tire rotation.

2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure
recommended by the vehicle manufacturer
on the vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of
a different size than the size indicated on
the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label, you should determine the proper tire
inflation pressure for those tires).
WHAT IS THE TIRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM
The tire pressure monitoring
system measures the vehicle's
tire pressures. A warning lamp
illuminates if one or more tires are
significantly underinflated or if there is a
system malfunction.
As an added safety feature, your vehicle
has been equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) that
illuminates a low tire pressure telltale
when one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. Accordingly,
when the low tire pressure telltale
illuminates, you should stop and check
your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure. Driving on a
significantly under-inflated tire causes the
tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency
and tire tread life, and may affect the
vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
WARNING: If the tire pressure
monitor sensor becomes damaged it
may not function.
WARNING: Under-inflation is the
most common cause of tire failures and
may result in severe tire cracking, tread
separation or blowout, with unexpected
loss of vehicle control and increased risk
of injury. Under-inflation increases
sidewall flexing and rolling resistance,
resulting in heat buildup and internal
damage to the tire. It also may result in
unnecessary tire stress, irregular wear,
loss of vehicle control and accidents. A
tire can lose up to half of its air pressure
and not appear to be flat!
Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tire maintenance, and
it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain
correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation
has not reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure
telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with
a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate
when the system is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is
combined with the low tire pressure
telltale. When the system detects a
malfunction, the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and then remain
continuously illuminated. This sequence
will continue upon subsequent vehicle
start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.
WARNING: To determine the
required pressure(s) for your vehicle, see
the Safety Compliance Certification
Label (on the door hinge pillar,
door-latch post or the door edge that
meets the door-latch post, next to the
driver seat) or the Tire Label on the
B-Pillar or the edge of the driver door.
383
2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
When the malfunction indicator is
illuminated, the system may not be able
to detect or signal low tire pressure as
intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur
for a variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alternate
tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent
the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or more tires or
wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tires and wheels
allow the TPMS to continue to function
properly.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: The tire pressure
monitoring system is not a substitute for
manually checking tire pressures. You
should periodically check tire pressures
using a pressure gauge. Failure to
correctly maintain tire pressures could
increase the risk of tire failure, loss of
control, vehicle rollover and personal
injury.
WARNING: Do not use the tire
pressure displayed in the information
display as a tire pressure gauge. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
personal injury or death.
WARNING: Changes or
modifications not expressively approved
by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user's authority to operate
the equipment. The term "IC:" before the
radio certification number only signifies
that Industry Canada technical
specifications were met.
Note: The use of tire sealants can damage
the tire pressure monitoring system.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
This device complies with Part 15 of the
FCC Rules and with License exempt RSS
Standards of Industry Canada. Operation
is subject to the following two conditions:

wheel, shift the transmission into park
(P), set the parking brake and use an
appropriate block or wheel chock to
secure the wheel diagonally opposite to
the wheel being changed. For example,
when changing the front left wheel,
place an appropriate block or wheel
chock on the right rear wheel.
If you get a flat tire when driving, do not
apply the brake heavily. Instead, gradually
decrease your speed. Hold the steering
wheel firmly and slowly move to a safe
place on the side of the road.
Have a flat serviced by an authorized
dealer in order to prevent damage to the
tire pressure monitoring system sensors.
Replace the spare tire with a road tire as
soon as possible. During repairing or
replacing of the flat tire, have the
authorized dealer inspect the tire pressure
monitoring system sensor for damage.
WARNING: Always use the jack
provided as original equipment with your
vehicle. If using a jack other than the one
provided, make sure the jack capacity is
adequate for the vehicle weight,
including any vehicle cargo or
modifications. If you are unsure if the jack
capacity is adequate, contact the

WHEEL NUTS
Wheel Nut Torque Specifications
WARNING: When you install a wheel, always remove any corrosion, dirt or foreign
materials present on the mounting surfaces of the wheel or the surface of the wheel
hub, brake drum or brake disc that contacts the wheel. Make sure to secure any fasteners
that attach the rotor to the hub so they do not interfere with the mounting surfaces of
the wheel. Installing wheels without correct metal-to-metal contact at the wheel
mounting surfaces can cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to come off while
your vehicle is in motion, resulting in loss of vehicle control, personal injury or death.
WARNING: If the tire pressure monitor sensor becomes damaged it may not
function.

Scheduled Maintenance
Protecting Your Investment
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
INFORMATION
Maintenance is an investment that pays
dividends in the form of improved
reliability, durability and resale value. To
maintain the proper performance of your
vehicle and its emission control systems,
make sure you have scheduled
maintenance performed at the designated
intervals.
Why Maintain Your Vehicle?
Carefully following the maintenance
schedule helps protect against major repair
expenses resulting from neglect or
inadequate maintenance and may help to
increase the value of your vehicle when
you sell or trade it. Keep all receipts for
completed maintenance with your vehicle.
Your vehicle comes with the Intelligent
Oil-Life Monitor system, a message
appears in the information display at the
proper oil change interval. This interval
may be up to one year or 10,000 mi
(16,000 km), hybrid vehicles could exceed
10,000 mi (16,000 km).
It is important that you have your vehicle
serviced at the proper times. These
intervals serve two purposes: first is to
maintain the reliability of your vehicle and
the second is to keep the cost of owning
your vehicle down.
When the oil change message appears in
the information display, it is time for an oil
change. Make sure you perform the oil
change within two weeks or 500 mi
(800 km) of the message appearing. Make
sure to reset the Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor
after each oil change. See Resetting the
Engine Oil Change Reminder (page 322).
It is your responsibility to have all
scheduled maintenance performed and to
make sure that the materials used meet
the specifications identified in this owner's
manual. See Capacities and
Specifications (page 393).
Failure to perform scheduled maintenance
and regularly inspect your vehicle may
result in vehicle damage not covered by
the vehicle Warranty.
If your information display resets
prematurely or becomes inoperative, you
should perform the oil change interval at
six months or 5,000 mi (8,000 km) from
your last oil change. Never exceed one year
or 10,000 mi (16,000 km) between oil
change intervals.
Why Maintain Your Vehicle at Your
Dealership?
Our Genuine Replacement Parts
You can drive high performance vehicles
in such a way that may lead to higher oil
consumption including extended time at
high engine speeds, high loads, engine
braking, hard cornering maneuvers, track
and off-road usage. Under these
conditions, oil consumption of
approximately 1 quart per 500 miles (1 liter
per 800 km) is possible. Check the engine
oil level at every refueling and adjust to
maintain proper levels to avoid engine
damage.
Dealerships stock our parts and our
authorized branded re-manufactured
replacement parts. These parts meet or
exceed our specifications. Parts installed
at your dealership carry a nationwide
24-month or unlimited mile (kilometer)
parts and labor limited warranty.
If you do not use our authorized parts they
may not meet our specifications and could
affect emissions compliance.
452
2021 Bronco (TG1) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202101, First-Printing
Scheduled Maintenance
It is important to rely upon your dealership
to properly diagnose and repair your
vehicle.
Make sure to change the vehicle’s oils and
fluids at the specified intervals or in
conjunction with a repair. Flushing is a
viable way to change fluid for many vehicle
sub-systems during scheduled
maintenance. It is critical that systems are
flushed only with new fluid that is the same
as that required to fill and operate the
system or using our approved flushing
chemical.
We strongly recommend only using our
genuine or our authorized re-manufactured
replacement parts engineered for your
vehicle.
Additives and Chemicals
We do not recommend using chemicals or
additives not approved by us as part of
your vehicle’s normal maintenance. Please
consult your warranty information.
Owner Checks and Services
Make sure you perform the following basic
maintenance checks and inspections.
Oils, Fluids and Flushing
In many cases, fluid discoloration is a
normal operating characteristic and, by
itself, does not necessarily indicate a
concern or that the fluid needs to be
changed. Have discolored fluids that also
show signs of overheating or foreign
material contamination checked
immediately.
Check Every Month
The air filter restriction gauge.
1
The engine oil level.
Function of all interior and the exterior lights.
The tires including the spare for wear and proper pressure.
The windshield washer fluid level.

Multi-Point Inspection
It is important to have the systems on your
vehicle regularly checked. This can help
identify potential issues and prevent major
problems. We recommend having the
following multi-point inspection performed
at every scheduled maintenance interval
to help make sure your vehicle keeps
running great.

Accessory drive belt or belts
Hazard warning system operation
Battery performance
Horn operation
Engine air filter

ROLLOVER WARNING
OUR SUSTAINABILITY
REPORT
You should 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.
WARNING: Utility vehicles have a
significantly higher rollover rate than
other types of vehicles.
WARNING: Vehicles with a higher
center of gravity (utility and four-wheel
drive vehicles) handle differently than
vehicles with a lower center of gravity
(passenger cars). Avoid sharp turns,
excessive speed and abrupt steering in
these vehicles. Failure to drive cautiously
increases the risk of losing control of your
vehicle, vehicle rollover, personal injury
and death.
For additional information about our
sustainability progress and initiatives, visit

THE BETTER BUSINESS
BUREAU AUTO LINE
PROGRAM - UNITED STATES
OF AMERICA
WARNING: In a rollover crash, an
unbelted person is significantly more
likely to die than a person wearing a
seatbelt.
Your satisfaction is important to Ford
Motor Company and to your dealer. If a
warranty concern has not been resolved
using the three-step procedure outlined
earlier in this chapter in the Getting the
Services you need section, you may be
eligible to participate in the BBB AUTO
LINE program.
WARNING: Do not become
overconfident in the ability of four-wheel
drive vehicles. Although a four-wheel
drive vehicle may accelerate better than
a two-wheel drive vehicle in low traction
situations, it won't stop any faster than
two-wheel drive vehicles. Always drive
at a safe speed.
The BBB AUTO LINE program consists of
two parts – mediation and arbitration.
During mediation, a representative of the
BBB will contact both you and Ford Motor
Company to explore options for settlement
of the claim. If an agreement is not reached
during mediation or you do not want to
participate in mediation, and if your claim
is eligible, you may participate in the
arbitration process. An arbitration hearing
will be scheduled so that you can present
your case in an informal setting before an
impartial person. The arbitrator considers
the testimony provided and makes a
decision after the hearing.
Utility vehicles and trucks handle
differently than passenger cars in the
various driving conditions that are
encountered on streets, highways and
off-road. Utility vehicles and trucks are not
designed for cornering at speeds as high
as passenger cars any more than low-slung
sports cars are designed to perform
satisfactorily under off-road conditions.

Customer Information
Disputes submitted to the BBB AUTO LINE
program are usually decided within 40
days after you file your claim with the BBB.
You are not bound by the decision, and
may reject the decision and proceed to
court where all findings of the BBB Auto
Line dispute, and decision, are admissible
in the court action. Should you choose to
accept the BBB AUTO LINE decision, Ford
is then bound by the decision, and must
comply with the decision within 30 days
of receipt of your acceptance letter.
THE MEDIATION AND
ARBITRATION PROGRAM CANADA
For vehicles delivered to authorized
Canadian dealers. In those cases where
you continue to feel that the efforts by Ford
of Canada and the authorized dealer to
resolve a factory-related vehicle service
concern have been unsatisfactory, Ford of
Canada participates in an impartial third
party mediation/arbitration program
administered by the Canadian Motor
Vehicle Arbitration Plan (CAMVAP).
BBB AUTO LINE Application: Using the
information that follows, please call or
write to request a program application.
You will be asked for your name and
address, general information about your
new vehicle, information about your
warranty concerns, and any steps you have
already taken to try to resolve them. A
Customer Claim Form will be mailed that
needs to be completed, signed and
returned to the BBB along with proof of
ownership. Upon receipt, the BBB reviews
the claim for eligibility under the Program
Summary Guidelines.
The CAMVAP program is a straightforward
and relatively speedy alternative to resolve
a disagreement when all other efforts to
produce a settlement have failed. This
procedure is without cost to you and is
designed to eliminate the need for lengthy
and expensive legal proceedings.
In the CAMVAP program, impartial
third-party arbitrators conduct hearings at
mutually convenient times and places in
an informal environment. These impartial
arbitrators review the positions of the
parties, make decisions and, when
appropriate, render awards to resolve
disputes. CAMVAP decisions are fast, fair,
and final as the arbitrator’s award is
binding on both you and Ford of Canada.
You can get more information by

We have built your vehicle 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

WARNING: Battery posts,
terminals and related
accessories contain lead and
lead compounds, chemicals
known to the State of California
to cause cancer and
reproductive harm. Wash your
hands after handling.
One of the best ways for you to make sure

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 that
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.
Certain components in your vehicle such
as airbag modules, seatbelt pretensioners
and remote control batteries may contain
perchlorate material. Special handling
may apply for service or vehicle end of life
disposal.

are driving. Pull over in a safe and legal
manner before attempting to access a
function of the system requiring
prolonged attention.
• 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.
• 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.
• Distraction Hazard: Any navigation
features may require manual
(non-verbal) setup. Attempting to
perform such set-up or insert data
while driving can distract your attention
and could cause an accident or other
serious injury. Stop the vehicle in a safe
and legal manner before attempting
these operations.
• 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.
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.
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.
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.

The laws of the State of Michigan
govern this EULA and Your use of the
SOFTWARE. Your use of the
SOFTWARE may also be subject to
other local, state, national, or
international laws. Any litigation arising
out of or related to this EULA shall be
brought and maintained exclusively in

business, if the dispute meets all
requirements to be heard in the small
claims court. You may litigate in small
claims court whether or not You

promptly reimburse your filing fees and
pay the AAA’s and arbitrator’s fees and

three incentives: (1) pay the greater of
the award or $1,000; (2) pay twice your
reasonable attorney’s fees, if any; and
(3) reimburse any expenses (including

your claim in arbitration. The arbitrator
will determine the amounts.
ii. Disputes involving more than

payment of filing fees and the AAA’s

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:
(h) Claims or disputes must be filed
within one year. To the extent permitted
by law, any claim or dispute under this
EULA to which this Section applies must
be filed within one year in small claims
court (Section c) or in arbitration (Section
d). The one-year period begins when the
claim or dispute first could be filed. If such
a claim or dispute is not filed within one
year, it is permanently barred.
(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,
places you in an unsafe situation, or directs
you into an area that you consider to be
unsafe, do not follow such instructions;
(I) Severability. If the class action waiver
(Section e) is found to be illegal or
unenforceable as to all or some parts of a
dispute, then that portion of Section e will
not apply to those parts. Instead, those
parts will be severed and proceed in a court
of law, with the remaining parts proceeding
in arbitration. If any other provision of that
portion Section e is found to be illegal or
unenforceable, that provision will be
severed with the remainder of Section e
remaining in full force and effect.
(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 manner inconsistent with this
Agreement;
(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

EMISSION LAW
5. Service Continuity and Reception of
the SUNA Traffic Channel
We will use reasonable endeavors to
provide the SUNA Traffic Channel 24 hours
a day, 365 days a year. The SUNA Traffic
Channel may occasionally be unavailable
for technical reasons or for planned
maintenance. We will try to perform
maintenance at times when congestion is
light. We reserve the right to withdraw
SUNA Products and/or Services at any
time.
WARNING: Do not remove or alter
the original equipment floor covering or
insulation between it and the metal floor
of the vehicle. The floor covering and
insulation protect occupants of the
vehicle from the engine and exhaust
system heat and noise. On vehicles with
no original equipment floor covering
insulation, do not carry passengers in a
manner that permits prolonged skin
contact with the metal floor. Failure to
follow these instructions may result in
fire or personal injury.
Also, we cannot assure the uninterrupted
reception of the SUNA Traffic Channel
RDS-TMC signal at any particular location.
6. Limitation of Liability
U.S. federal laws and certain state laws
prohibit removing or rendering inoperative
emission control system components.
Similar federal or provincial laws may
apply in Canada. We do not approve of any
vehicle modification without first
determining applicable laws.
Neither Intelematics (nor its suppliers or
the manufacturer of your device (the
“Suppliers”)) shall be liable to you or to
any third party for any damages either
direct, indirect, incidental, consequential
or otherwise arising out of the use of or
inability to use SUNA Products and/or

a new vehicle for the purpose of noise
control prior to its sale or delivery to
the ultimate purchaser or while it is in
use.
• The use of the vehicle after any person
removes or renders inoperative any
device or element of the design.
A clogged fuel filter.
Contaminated fuel.
Air in the fuel system, due to loose

An open or pinched sensor hose.
Incorrect engine oil level.
Incorrect fuel for climatic conditions.
Incorrect engine oil viscosity for
climactic conditions.
Note: Some vehicles have a lifetime fuel
filter that is integrated with the fuel tank.
Regular maintenance or replacement is not
needed.
Note: If these checks do not help you
correct the concern, have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
Noise Emissions Warranty,
Prohibited Tampering Acts and
Maintenance
On January 1, 1978, Federal regulation
became effective governing the noise
emission on trucks over 10,000 lb
(4,536 kg) Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR). The preceding statements
concerning prohibited tampering acts and
maintenance, and the noise warranty
found in the Warranty Guide, are
applicable to complete chassis cabs over
10,000 lb (4,536 kg) GVWR.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
may presume to constitute tampering as
follows:
• Removal of hood blanket, fender apron
absorbers, fender apron barriers,
underbody noise shields or acoustically
absorptive material.
• Tampering or rendering inoperative the
engine speed governor, to allow engine
speed to exceed manufacturer
specifications.
EXPORT UNIQUE OPTIONS
If the engine does not start, runs rough,
experiences a decrease in engine
performance, experiences excess fuel
consumption or produces excessive
exhaust smoke, check for the following:
• A plugged or disconnected air inlet
system hose.
• A plugged engine air filter element.
• Water in the fuel filter and water
separator.
