CAUTION: Use only special tool 204-354 anytime tire pressures are measured to be sure that accurate values are obtained.

Place the air chuck straight on the valve stem to inflate the tire. Do not cock the air chuck during the inflation cycle. Doing so can damage the valve stem and cause air leaks.

Ford recommends using a round head air chuck on tire pressure sensors; it is not recommended to use air chucks with long shanks. Doing so can cause damage to the tire pressure monitoring system sensor valve stem and loss of tire pressure.

Use only OEM valve caps (aluminum or plastic valve caps) with the TPMS sensors. Do not use brass-threaded valve caps with the tire pressure sensors.

For accuracy, Ford recommend the use of a digital or dial-type tire pressure gauge rather than a stick type of pressure gauge.

Inflate the tire to the pressure specified on the safety certification sticker located on the driver door or door pillar.
