Inspection and Verification

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis and 2006 Ford Crown Victoria. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: If equipped with fire suppression system, refer to FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM for Important Safety Warnings.
WARNING: A vehicle equipped with a Traction-Lock® differential will always have both wheels driving. If, while the vehicle is being serviced, only one wheel is raised off the ground and the rear axle is driven by the engine, the wheel on the ground could drive the vehicle off the stand or jack. Be sure both rear wheels are off the ground. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
WARNING: Never run the engine with one wheel off the ground, for example, when changing a tire. The wheel(s) resting on the ground could cause the vehicle to move. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
WARNING: Do not balance the wheels and tires while they are mounted on the vehicle. Possible tire disintegration or differential failure could result, causing personal injury and extensive component damage. Use off-vehicle wheel and tire balancer only. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.

Be sure to follow the warnings when carrying out inspection and verification.
