In order to properly diagnose andservice your vehicle, Ford Motor Company,Ford of Canada, and service and repairfacilities may access or share among themvehicle diagnostic information receivedthrough a direct connection to your vehiclewhen diagnosing or servicing your vehicle.Additionally, when your vehicle is in forservice or repair, Ford Motor Company,Ford of Canada, and service and repairfacilities may access or share among themdata for vehicle improvement purposes.For U.S. only (if equipped), if you chooseto use the SYNC Vehicle Health Report,you consent that certain diagnosticinformation may also be accessedelectronically by Ford Motor Company andFord authorized service facilities, and thatthe diagnostic information may be usedfor any purpose. See SYNC (page 323).Event Data RecordingThis vehicle is equipped with an eventdata recorder. The main purpose of anevent data recorder is to record, incertain crash or near crash-likesituations, such as an airbagdeployment or hitting a road obstacle;this data will assist in understandinghow a vehicle’s systems performed.The event data recorder is designed torecord data related to vehicle dynamicsand safety systems for a short periodof time, typically 30 seconds or less.9F150 (TF6) , enUSA


IntroductionThe event data recorder in this vehicleis designed to record such data as:• How various systems in your vehiclewere operating;• Whether or not the driver andpassenger safety belts werebuckled/fastened;• How far (if at all) the driver wasdepressing the accelerator and/orthe brake pedal; and• How fast the vehicle was traveling;and• Where the driver was positioningthe steering wheel.This data can help provide a betterunderstanding of the circumstances inwhich crashes and injuries occur.Note: Event data recorder data isrecorded by your vehicle only if anon-trivial crash situation occurs; no datais recorded by the event data recorderunder normal driving conditions and nopersonal data or information (e.g., name,gender, age, and crash location) isrecorded (see limitations regarding 911Assist and Traffic, directions andInformation privacy below). However,parties, such as law enforcement, couldcombine the event data recorder datawith the type of personally identifyingdata routinely acquired during a crashinvestigation.To read data recorded by an event datarecorder, special equipment is required,and access to the vehicle or the eventdata recorder is needed. In addition tothe vehicle manufacturer, otherparties, such as law enforcement, thathave such special equipment, can readthe information if they have access tothe vehicle or the event data recorder.Ford Motor Company and Ford ofCanada do not access event datarecorder information without obtainingconsent, unless pursuant to court orderor where required by law enforcement,other government authorities or otherthird parties acting with lawfulauthority. Other parties may seek toaccess the information independentlyof Ford Motor Company and Ford ofCanada.Note: Including to the extent that anylaw pertaining to Event Data Recordersapplies to SYNC or its features, pleasenote the following: Once 911 Assist (ifequipped) is enabled (set ON), 911 Assistmay, through any paired and connectedcell phone, disclose to emergencyservices that the vehicle has been in acrash involving the deployment of anairbag or, in certain vehicles, theactivation of the fuel pump shut-off.Certain versions or updates to 911 Assistmay also be capable of being used toelectronically or verbally provide to 911operators the vehicle location (such aslatitude and longitude), and/or otherdetails about the vehicle or crash orpersonal information about theoccupants to assist 911 operators toprovide the most appropriate emergencyservices. If you do not want to disclosethis information, do not activate the 911Assist feature. See SYNC (page 323).Additionally, when you connect toTraffic, Directions and Information (ifequipped, U.S. only), the service usesGPS technology and advanced vehiclesensors to collect the vehicle’s currentlocation, travel direction, and speed(“vehicle travel information”), only tohelp provide you with the directions,traffic reports, or business searchesthat you request. If you do not wantFord or its vendors to receive thisinformation, do not activate theservice. For more information, seeTraffic, Directions and Information,Terms and Conditions.

Child SafetyUse a child safety seat (sometimes calledan infant carrier, convertible seat, ortoddler seat) for infants, toddlers, orchildren weighing 40 pounds (18kilograms) or less (generally age four oryounger).Using Lap and Shoulder BeltsWARNINGSAirbags can kill or injure a child in achild seat. Never place a rear-facingchild seat in front of an active airbag.If you must use a forward-facing child seatin the front seat, move the vehicle seatupon which the seat is installed all the wayback.Airbags can kill or injure a child in achild seat. Children 12 and undershould be properly restrained in therear seat whenever possible.Depending on where you secure achild restraint, and depending on thechild restraint design, you may blockaccess to certain safety belt buckleassemblies and LATCH lower anchors,rendering those features potentiallyunusable. To avoid risk of injury, occupantsshould only use seating positions wherethey are able to be properly restrained.When installing a child safety seat withcombination lap and shoulder belts:• Use the correct safety belt buckle forthat seating position.• Insert the belt tongue into the properbuckle until you hear a snap and feel itlatch. Make sure the tongue is securelyfastened in the buckle.• Keep the buckle release buttonpointing up and away from the safetyseat, with the tongue between the childseat and the release button, to preventaccidental unbuckling.• Place the vehicle seat upon which thechild seat will be installed in the uprightposition.• Put the safety belt in the automaticlocking mode. This vehicle does notrequire the use of a locking clip.Perform the following steps wheninstalling the child seat with combinationlap and shoulder belts:Note: Although the child seat illustrated isa forward facing child seat, the steps arethe same for installing a rear facing childseat.E1425281. Position the child safety seat in a seatwith a combination lap and shoulderbelt.E1425292. Pull down on the shoulder belt andthen grasp the shoulder belt and lapbelt together.16F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Child Safety8. Remove remaining slack from the belt.Force the seat down with extra weight,for example, by pressing down orkneeling on the child restraint whilepulling up on the shoulder belt in orderto force slack from the belt. This isnecessary to remove the remainingslack that will exist once the extraweight of the child is added to the childrestraint. It also helps to achieve theproper snugness of the child seat toyour vehicle. Sometimes, a slight leantoward the buckle will help to removeremaining slack from the belt.9. Attach the tether strap (if the child seatis equipped).Using Lap and Shoulder Belts(Front Center Seating Position)WARNINGSAirbags can kill or injure a child in achild seat. If you must use aforward-facing child seat in the frontseat, move the vehicle seat upon whichthe seat is installed all the way back.Rear facing child seats should neverbe placed in front of an active airbag.Always use both lap and shouldersafety belt in the center seatingposition.The belt webbing below the tongue is thelap portion of the combination lap andshoulder belt, and the belt webbing abovethe tongue is the shoulder belt portion ofthe combination lap and shoulder belt.E14253410. Before placing the child in the seat,forcibly move the seat forward andback to make sure the seat is securelyheld in place.To check this, grab the seat at the belt pathand attempt to move it side to side andforward and back. There should be nomore than 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) ofmovement for proper installation.Ford recommends checking with a NHTSACertified Child Passenger SafetyTechnician to make certain the childrestraint is properly installed. In Canada,check with your local St. John Ambulanceoffice for referral to a Certified PassengerSeat Technician.E1425281. Position the child safety seat in thefront center seat.18F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Child Safety4. Insert the belt tongue into the properbuckle (the buckle closest to thedirection the tongue is coming from)for that seating position until you heara snap and feel the latch engage. Makesure the tongue is latched securely bypulling on it.E1627082. Slide the tongue up the webbing.E142533E1425303. While holding both shoulder and lapportions next to the tongue, route thetongue and webbing through the childseat according to the child seatmanufacturer's instructions. Be surethat the belt webbing is not twisted.5. While pushing down with your knee onthe child seat pull up on the shoulderbelt portion to tighten the lap beltportion of the combination lap andshoulder belt.6. Allow the safety belt to retract andremove any slack in the belt to securelytighten the child safety seat in thevehicle.7. Attach the tether strap (if the child seatis equipped).E142531E14253419F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Child Safety8. Before placing the child in the seat,forcibly move the seat forward andback to make sure the seat is securelyheld in place. To check this, grab theseat at the belt path and attempt tomove it side to side and forward andback. There should be no more than 1inch (2.5 centimeters) of movementfor proper installation.9. Check from time to time to be sure thatthere is no slack in the lap and shoulderbelt. The shoulder belt must be snugto keep the lap belt tight during a crash.Ford recommends checking with a NHTSACertified Child Passenger SafetyTechnician to make certain the childrestraint is properly installed. In Canada,check with your local St. John Ambulanceoffice for referral to a Child PassengerSafety Technician.Using Lower Anchors and Tethersfor CHildren (LATCH)WARNINGSNever attach two child safety seatsto the same anchor. In a crash, oneanchor may not be strong enough tohold two child safety seat attachmentsand may break, causing serious injury ordeath.WARNINGSDepending on where you secure achild restraint, and depending on thechild restraint design, you may blockaccess to certain safety belt buckleassemblies or LATCH lower anchors,rendering those features potentiallyunusable. To avoid risk of injury, occupantsshould only use seating positions wherethey are able to be properly restrained.The LATCH system is composed of threevehicle anchor points: two lower anchorslocated where the vehicle seat back andseat cushion meet (called the seat bight)and one top tether anchor located behindthat seating position.LATCH compatible child safety seats havetwo rigid or webbing mountedattachments that connect to the two loweranchors at the LATCH equipped seatingpositions in your vehicle. This type ofattachment method eliminates the needto use safety belts to attach the child seat,however the safety belt can still be usedto attach the child seat if the lower anchorsare not used. For forward-facing childseats, the top tether strap must also beattached to the proper top tether anchor,if a top tether strap has been provided withyour child seat.Your vehicle is equipped with LATCH loweranchors for child seat installation at thefollowing seating positions (LATCH is notavailable on F150 Regular Cab):20F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Child SafetySuperCab and SuperCrewE166694Use of Inboard Lower Anchorsfrom the Outboard SeatingPositions (Center Seating Use)E166695The lower LATCH anchors are located atthe rear section of the rear seat betweenthe cushion and seatback. Follow the childseat manufacturer's instructions toproperly install a child seat with LATCHattachments.Follow the instructions later in this chapteron attaching child safety seats with tetherstraps.Attach LATCH lower attachments of thechild seat only to the anchors shown.WARNINGThe standardized spacing for LATCHlower anchors is 11 inches (280millimeters) center to center. Do notuse LATCH lower anchors for the centerseating position unless the child seatmanufacturer's instructions permit andspecify using anchors spaced at least asfar apart as those in this vehicle.The lower anchors at the center of thesecond row rear seat are spaced 25.7inches (652 millimeters) apart. Thestandardized spacing for LATCH loweranchors is 11 inches (280 millimeters)center to center. A child seat with rigidLATCH attachments cannot be installedat the center seating position. LATCHcompatible child seats (with attachmentson belt webbing) can only be used at thisseating position provided that the childseat manufacturer's instructions permituse with the anchor spacing stated. Do notattach a child seat to any lower anchor ifan adjacent child seat is attached to thatanchor.21F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Child SafetyEach time you use the safety seat, checkthat the seat is properly attached to thelower anchors and tether anchor, ifapplicable. Tug the child seat from side toside and forward and back where it issecured to the vehicle. The seat shouldmove less than one inch when you do thisfor a proper installation.If the safety seat is not anchored properly,the risk of a child being injured in a crashgreatly increases.Combining Safety Belt and LATCHLower Anchors for Attaching ChildSafety SeatsWhen used in combination, either thesafety belt or the LATCH lower anchorsmay be attached first, provided a properinstallation is achieved. Attach the tetherstrap afterward, if included with the childseat.Using Tether StrapsMany forward-facing child safety seatsinclude a tether strap which extends fromthe back of the child safety seat and hooksto an anchoring point called the top tetheranchor. Tether straps are available as anaccessory for many older safety seats.Contact the manufacturer of your childseat for information about ordering atether strap, or to obtain a longer tetherstrap if the tether strap on your safety seatdoes not reach the appropriate top tetheranchor in the vehicle.The passenger seats of your vehicle maybe equipped with built-in tether strapanchors located behind the seats asdescribed below.The tether anchors in your vehicle may beloops of webbing above the seatback oran anchor bracket behind the seat on therear edge of the seat cushion.The rear seat in the SuperCab andSuperCrew has three straps along the topof the seat back that function as bothrouting loops for the tether straps andanchor loops.The tether strap anchors in your vehicleare in the following positions (shown fromtop view):Regular CabE166696SuperCrew and SuperCabE16669722F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Child SafetyAttach the tether strap only to theappropriate tether anchor as shown. Thetether strap may not work properly ifattached somewhere other than thecorrect tether anchor.If you install a child seat with rigid LATCHattachments, do not tighten the tetherstrap enough to lift the child seat off thevehicle seat cushion when the child isseated in it. Keep the tether strap just snugwithout lifting the front of the child seat.Keeping the child seat just touching thevehicle seat gives the best protection in asevere crash.Once the child safety seat has beeninstalled using either the safety belt, thelower anchors of the LATCH system, orboth, you can attach the top tether strap.Front Seat Tether StrapAttachment (Regular Cab)1. Route the child safety seat tether strapover the back of the seat and under thehead restraint.Note: For vehicles with adjustable headrestraints, route the tether strap under thehead restraint and between the headrestraint posts, otherwise route the tetherstrap over the top of the seat back.2. Locate the correct anchor for theselected seating position. You mayneed to pull the seat back forward toaccess the tether anchors.

Safety BeltsWARNINGSThe belt and retractor must bereplaced if the safety belt assemblyautomatic locking retractor featureor any other safety belt function is notoperating properly when checked by anauthorized dealer. Failure to replace thebelt and retractor assembly could increasethe risk of injury in crashes.All safety restraints in the vehicle arecombination lap and shoulder belts. Thedriver safety belt has the first type oflocking mode, and the front outboardpassenger and rear seat safety belts haveboth types of locking modes described asfollows:When to Use the Automatic LockingModeUse this mode any time you install a childsafety seat in a front outboard passengerseating position in a Regular Cab,SuperCab, SuperCrew or any rear seatingposition of a SuperCab or SuperCrew. Theoptional front seat's center safety belt hasa cinch mechanism. Children 12 years oldand under should be properly restrained ina rear seat whenever possible. See ChildSafety (page 14).How to Use the Automatic LockingModeVehicle Sensitive ModeThis is the normal retractor mode, whichallows free shoulder belt lengthadjustment to your movements andlocking in response to vehicle movement.For example, if the driver brakes suddenly,turns a corner sharply, or the vehiclereceives an impact of about 5 mph (8km/h) or more, the combination safetybelts will lock to help reduce forwardmovement of the driver and passengers.In addition, the retractor is designed to lockif the webbing is pulled out too quickly. Ifthis occurs, let the belt retract slightly andpull webbing out again in a slow andcontrolled manner.Automatic Locking ModeIn this mode, the shoulder belt isautomatically pre-locked. The belt will stillretract to remove any slack in the shoulderbelt. The automatic locking mode is notavailable on the driver safety belt.E1425911. Buckle the combination lap andshoulder belt.2. Grasp the shoulder portion and pulldownward until you pull the entire beltout.Allow the belt to retract. As the beltretracts, you will hear a clicking sound.

Personal Safety SystemThe Personal Safety System provides animproved overall level of frontal crashprotection to front seat occupants and isdesigned to help further reduce the risk ofairbag-related injuries. The system is ableto analyze different occupant conditionsand crash severity before activating theappropriate safety devices to help betterprotect a range of occupants in a varietyof frontal crash situations.Your vehicle's Personal Safety Systemconsists of:• Driver and passenger dual-stage airbagsupplemental restraints.• Front outboard safety belts withpretensioners, energy managementretractors (first row only), and safetybelt usage sensors.• Driver’s seat position sensor.• Front passenger sensing system.• Passenger airbag off and on indicatorlamp.• Front crash severity sensors.• Restraints control module with impactand safing sensors.• Restraint system warning light andbackup tone.• The electrical wiring for the airbags,crash sensor(s), safety beltpretensioners, front safety belt usagesensors, driver seat position sensor,front passenger sensing system, andindicator lights.How Does the Personal SafetySystem Work?The Personal Safety System can adapt thedeployment strategy of your vehicle’ssafety devices according to crash severityand occupant conditions. A collection ofcrash and occupant sensors providesinformation to the restraints controlmodule.

Supplementary Restraints SystemPRINCIPLE OF OPERATIONWARNINGSAirbags do not inflate slowly orgently, and the risk of injury from adeploying airbag is the greatest closeto the trim covering the airbag module.All occupants of your vehicle,including the driver, should alwaysproperly wear their safety belts, evenwhen an airbag supplemental restraintsystem is provided. Failure to properly wearyour safety belt could seriously increasethe risk of injury or death.Always transport children 12 yearsold and under in the back seat andalways properly use appropriatechild restraints. Failure to follow this couldseriously increase the risk of injury or death.Never place your arm over the airbagmodule as a deploying airbag canresult in serious arm fractures orother injuries.Airbags can kill or injure a child in achild seat. Never place a rear-facingchild seat in front of an active airbag.If you must use a forward-facing child seatin the front seat, move the seat upon whichthe child seat is installed all the way back.Do not attempt to service, repair, ormodify the airbag supplementalrestraint systems or its fuses as youcould be seriously injured or killed. Contactyour authorized dealer as soon as possible.Several airbag system componentsget hot after inflation. To avoid riskof injury, do not touch them afterinflation.If the airbag has deployed, the airbagwill not function again and must bereplaced immediately. If the airbagis not replaced, the unrepaired area willincrease the risk of injury in a crash.The airbags are a supplemental restraintsystem and are designed to work with thesafety belts to help protect the driver andright front passenger from certain upperbody injuries. Airbags do not inflate slowly;there is a risk of injury from a deployingairbag.Note: You will hear a loud bang and see acloud of harmless powdery residue if anairbag deploys. This is normal.The airbags inflate and deflate rapidlyupon activation. After airbag deployment,it is normal to notice a smoke-like, powderyresidue or smell the burnt propellant. Thismay consist of cornstarch, talcum powder(to lubricate the bag) or sodiumcompounds (for example, baking soda)that result from the combustion processthat inflates the airbag. Small amounts ofsodium hydroxide may be present whichmay irritate the skin and eyes, but none ofthe residue is toxic.While the system is designed to helpreduce serious injuries, contact with adeploying airbag may also cause abrasionsor swelling. Temporary hearing loss is alsoa possibility as a result of the noiseassociated with a deploying airbag.Because airbags must inflate rapidly andwith considerable force, there is the risk ofdeath or serious injuries such as fractures,facial and eye injuries or internal injuries,particularly to occupants who are notproperly restrained or are otherwise out ofposition at the time of airbag deployment.Thus, it is extremely important thatoccupants be properly restrained as faraway from the airbag module as possiblewhile maintaining vehicle control.Routine maintenance of the airbags is notrequired.39F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Supplementary Restraints SystemDRIVER AND PASSENGERAIRBAGSWARNINGSNever place your arm or any objectsover an airbag module. Placing yourarm over a deploying airbag canresult in serious arm fractures or otherinjuries. Objects placed on or over theairbag inflation area may cause thoseobjects to be propelled by the airbag intoyour face and torso causing serious injury.Airbags can kill or injure a child in achild seat. Never place a rear-facingchild seat in front of an active airbag.If you must use a forward-facing child seatin the front seat, move the vehicle seatupon which the child seat is installed allthe way back.E151127The driver and front passenger airbags willdeploy during significant frontal and nearfrontal crashes.The driver and passenger front airbagsystem consists of:• driver and passenger airbag modules.• front passenger sensing system.· crash sensors and monitoringsystem with readiness indicator.See Crash Sensors and AirbagIndicator (page 48).Proper Driver and Front PassengerSeating AdjustmentWARNINGThe National Highway Traffic SafetyAdministration recommends aminimum distance of at least 10inches (25 centimeters) between anoccupant’s chest and the driver airbagmodule.To properly position yourself away fromthe airbag:• Move your seat to the rear as far as youcan while still reaching the pedalscomfortably.• Recline the seat slightly (one or twodegrees) from the upright position.After all occupants have adjusted theirseats and put on safety belts, it is veryimportant that they continue to sitproperly. Properly seated occupants situpright, lean against the seat back, andcenter themselves on the seat cushion,with their feet comfortably extended onthe floor. Sitting improperly can increasethe chance of injury in a crash event. Forexample, if an occupant slouches, liesdown, turns sideways, sits forward, leansforward or sideways, or puts one or bothfeet up, the chance of injury during a crashis greatly increased.Children and AirbagsWARNINGAirbags can kill or injure a child in achild seat.

The sensor also turns off thepassenger front airbag and seat-mountedside airbag when the passenger seat isempty.• When the front passenger sensingsystem disables (will not inflate) thefront passenger frontal airbag, theindicator lamp will illuminate and staylit to remind you that the frontpassenger frontal airbag is disabled.• If the child restraint has been installedand the indicator lamp is not lit, turnyour vehicle off, remove the childrestraint from your vehicle and reinstallthe restraint following the childrestraint manufacturer's instructions.The front passenger sensing system isdesigned to enable (may inflate) the frontpassenger's frontal airbag anytime thesystem senses that a person of adult sizeis sitting properly in the front passengerseat.• When the front passenger sensingsystem enables the front passengerfrontal airbag (may inflate), theindicator will be unlit and stay unlit.44F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Supplementary Restraints SystemIf a person of adult size is sitting in the frontpassenger seat, but the pass airbag offindicator lamp is lit, it is possible that theperson is not sitting properly in the seat. Ifthis happens:• Turn your vehicle off and ask theperson to place the seatback in the fullupright position.• Have the person sit upright in the seat,centered on the seat cushion, with theperson's legs comfortably extended.• Restart your vehicle and have theperson remain in this position for abouttwo minutes. This will allow the systemto detect that person and enable thepassenger's frontal airbag.• If the indicator lamp remains lit evenafter this, you should advise the personto ride in the rear seat.OccupantEmptyChildAdultPassenger airbag off indicatorlampUnlitLitUnlitPassenger airbagDisabledDisabledEnabledNote: When the passenger airbag off lampis illuminated, the passenger side airbag(seat mounted) may be disabled to avoidthe risk of airbag deployment injuries.After all occupants have adjusted theirseats and put on safety belts, it is veryimportant that they continue to sitproperly. A properly seated occupant sitsupright, leaning against the seat back, andcentered on the seat cushion, with theirfeet comfortably extended on the floor.Sitting improperly can increase the chanceof injury in a crash event. For example, ifan occupant slouches, lies down, turnssideways, sits forward, leans forward orsideways, or puts one or both feet up, thechance of injury during a crash is greatlyincreased.Make sure the front passengersensing system is operatingproperly. See Crash Sensorsand Airbag Indicator (page 48).Do not attempt to repair or service thesystem. Take your vehicle immediately toan authorized dealer.If it is necessary to modify an advancedfront airbag system to accommodate aperson with disabilities, contact the FordCustomer Relationship Center. SeeGetting the Services You Need (page219).SIDE AIRBAGSWARNINGSDo not place objects or mountequipment on or near the airbagcover, on the side of the seatbacks(of the front seats), or in front seat areasthat may come into contact with adeploying airbag. Failure to follow theseinstructions may increase the risk ofpersonal injury in the event of a crash.Do not use accessory seat covers.The use of accessory seat coversmay prevent the deployment of theside airbags and increase the risk of injuryin an accident.45F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Supplementary Restraints SystemWARNINGSDo not lean your head on the door.The side airbag could injure you as itdeploys from the side of theseatback.Do not attempt to service, repair, ormodify the airbag, its fuses or theseat cover on a seat containing anairbag as you could be seriously injured orkilled. Contact your authorized dealer assoon as possible.If the side airbag has deployed, theairbag will not function again. Theside airbag system (including theseat) must be inspected and serviced byan authorized dealer. If the airbag is notreplaced, the unrepaired area will increasethe risk of injury in a crash.The side airbags are located on theoutboard side of the seatbacks of the frontseats. In certain sideways crashes, theairbag on the side affected by the crashwill be inflated. The airbag was designedto inflate between the door panel andoccupant to further enhance the protectionprovided occupants in side impact crashes.E152533The system consists of the following:• A label or embossed side panelindicating that side airbags are fittedto your vehicle.• Side airbags located inside the driverand front passenger seatbacks.• Front passenger sensing system.·Crash sensors and monitoringsystem with readiness indicator.See Crash Sensors and AirbagIndicator (page 48).Note: The passenger sensing system willdeactivate the passenger seat-mountedside airbag if it detects an empty passengerseat.The design and development of the sideairbag system included recommendedtesting procedures that were developedby a group of automotive safety expertsknown as the Side Airbag TechnicalWorking Group. These recommendedtesting procedures help reduce the risk ofinjuries related to the deployment of sideairbags.SAFETY CANOPYWARNINGSDo not place objects or mountequipment on or near the headlinerat the siderail that may come intocontact with a deploying curtain airbag.Failure to follow these instructions mayincrease the risk of personal injury in theevent of a crash.Do not lean your head on the door.The curtain airbag could injure youas it deploys from the headliner.46F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Supplementary Restraints SystemWARNINGSDo not attempt to service, repair, ormodify the curtain airbags, its fuses,the A, B, or C pillar trim, or theheadliner on a vehicle containing curtainairbags as you could be seriously injuredor killed. Contact your authorized dealeras soon as possible.All occupants of your vehicleincluding the driver should alwayswear their safety belts even when anairbag supplemental restraint system andcurtain airbag is provided. Failure toproperly wear your safety belt couldseriously increase the risk of injury or death.To reduce risk of injury, do notobstruct or place objects in thedeployment path of the curtainairbag.If the curtain airbags have deployed,the curtain airbags will not functionagain. The curtain airbags (includingthe A, B and C pillar trim and headliner)must be inspected and serviced by anauthorized dealer. If the curtain airbag isnot replaced, the unrepaired area willincrease the risk of injury in a crash.The Safety Canopy will deploy duringsignificant side crashes or when a certainlikelihood of a rollover event is detectedby the rollover sensor. The Safety Canopyis mounted to the roof side-rail sheetmetal, behind the headliner, above eachrow of seats. In certain sideways crashesor rollover events, the Safety Canopy willbe activated, regardless of which seats areoccupied. The Safety Canopy is designedto inflate between the side window areaand occupants to further enhanceprotection provided in side impact crashesand rollover events.E75004The system consists of the following:• Safety canopy curtain airbags locatedabove the trim panels over the frontand rear side windows identified by alabel or wording on the headliner orroof-pillar trim.• A flexible headliner which opens abovethe side doors to allow air curtaindeployment• The crash sensors and monitoringsystem have a readiness indicator. SeeCrash Sensors and Airbag Indicator(page 48).Children 12 years old and under shouldalways be properly restrained in the rearseats. The Safety Canopy will not interferewith children restrained using a properlyinstalled child or booster seat because itis designed to inflate downward from theheadliner above the doors along the sidewindow opening.The design and development of the SafetyCanopy included recommended testingprocedures that were developed by agroup of automotive safety experts knownas the Side Airbag Technical WorkingGroup.

Supplementary Restraints SystemCRASH SENSORS ANDAIRBAG INDICATORWARNINGModifying or adding equipment tothe front end of the vehicle (includingframe, bumper, front end bodystructure and tow hooks) may affect theperformance of the airbag system,increasing the risk of injury. Do not modifythe front end of the vehicle.Your vehicle has a collection of crash andoccupant sensors which provideinformation to the restraints controlmodule which deploys (activates) thefront safety belt pretensioners, driverairbag, passenger airbag, seat mountedside airbags, and the Safety Canopy®.Based on the type of crash (frontal impact,side impact or rollover), the restraintscontrol module will deploy the appropriatesafety devices.The restraints control module alsomonitors the readiness of the above safetydevices plus the crash and occupantsensors. The readiness of the safetysystem is indicated by a warning indicatorlight in the instrument cluster or by abackup tone if the warning light is notworking. See Instrument Cluster (page81). Routine maintenance of the airbag isnot required.A difficulty with the system is indicated byone or more of the following:The readiness light will notilluminate immediately after theignition is turned on.• The readiness light will either flash orstay lit.• A series of five beeps will be heard. Thetone pattern will repeat periodicallyuntil the problem, the light or both arerepaired.If any of these things happen, evenintermittently, have the supplementalrestraint system serviced at an authorizeddealer immediately. Unless serviced, thesystem may not function properly in theevent of a crash.The fact that the safety belt pretensionersor front airbags did not activate for bothfront seat occupants in a crash does notmean that something is wrong with thesystem. Rather, it means the restraintscontrol module determined the accidentconditions (crash severity, belt usage)were not appropriate to activate thesesafety devices.• The design of the front airbags is toactivate only in frontal and near-frontalcrashes (not rollovers, side impacts orrear impacts) unless the crash causessufficient frontal deceleration.• The design of the safety beltpretensioners is to activate in frontal,near-frontal and side crashes, and inrollovers.• The design of the side airbags is toinflate in certain side impact crashes.Side airbags may activate in othertypes of crashes if the vehicleexperiences sufficient sideways motionor deformation.• The design of the Safety Canopy is toinflate in certain side impact crashesor rollover events. The Safety Canopymay activate in other types of crashesif the vehicle experiences sufficientsideways motion or deformation, or acertain likelihood of rollover.AIRBAG DISPOSALContact your authorized dealer as soon aspossible.

Starting and Stopping the EngineGENERAL INFORMATIONWARNINGSExtended idling at high enginespeeds can produce very hightemperatures in the engine andexhaust system, creating the risk of fire orother damage.Do not park, idle or drive your vehicleon dry grass or other dry groundcover. The emission system heats upthe engine compartment and exhaustsystem, creating the risk of fire.Do not start the engine in a closedgarage or in other enclosed areas.Exhaust fumes can be toxic. Alwaysopen the garage door before you start theengine.If you smell exhaust fumes insideyour vehicle, have your vehiclechecked by an authorized dealerimmediately. Do not drive your vehicle ifyou smell exhaust fumes.If you disconnect the battery, your vehiclemay exhibit some unusual drivingcharacteristics for approximately 5 miles(8 kilometers) after you reconnect it. Thisis because the engine management systemmust realign itself with the engine. You candisregard any unusual drivingcharacteristics during this period.The powertrain control system meets allCanadian interference-causing equipmentstandard requirements regulating theimpulse electrical field or radio noise.When you start the engine, avoid pressingthe accelerator pedal before and duringoperation. Only use the accelerator pedalwhen you have difficulty starting theengine.IGNITION SWITCHE163165ABCA (off) - The ignition is off.Note: When you switch the ignition off andleave your vehicle, do not leave your key inthe ignition. This could cause your vehiclebattery to lose charge.B (accessory) - Allows the electricalaccessories, such as the radio, to operatewhile the engine is not running.Note: Do not leave the ignition key in thisposition for too long. This could cause yourvehicle battery to lose charge.C (on) - All electrical circuits areoperational and the warning lamps andindicators illuminate.D (start) - Cranks the engine.DSTARTING A GASOLINEENGINEWhen you start the engine, the idle speedincreases, this helps to warm up theengine. If the engine idle speed does notslow down automatically, have yourvehicle checked by an authorized dealer.135F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Starting and Stopping the EngineBefore starting the engine check thefollowing:• Make sure all occupants have fastenedtheir safety belts.• Make sure the headlamps andelectrical accessories are off.• Make sure the parking brake is on.• Move the transmission selector leverto position P.• Turn the ignition key to the on position.Note: Do not touch the accelerator pedal.1. Fully press the brake pedal.2. Turn the key to the start position tostart the engine. Release the key whenthe engine starts.Note: The engine may continue crankingfor up to 15 seconds or until it starts.Note: If you cannot start the engine on thefirst try, wait for a short period and try again.Failure to StartIf you cannot start the engine after threeattempts, wait 10 seconds and follow thisprocedure:1. Fully press the brake pedal.2. Fully press the accelerator pedal andhold it there.3. Start the engine.Stopping the Engine When YourVehicle is Stationary1. Move the transmission selector leverto position P.2. Turn the key to the off position.3. Apply the parking brake.Stopping the Engine When YourVehicle is MovingWARNINGSwitching off the engine when thevehicle is still moving will result in aloss of brake and steering assistance.The steering will not lock, but higher effortwill be required. When the ignition isswitched off, some electrical circuits,warning lamps and indicators may also beoff.1. Move the transmission selector leverto position N and use the brakes tobring your vehicle to a safe stop.2. When your vehicle has stopped, movethe transmission selector lever toposition P and turn the key to the offposition.3. Apply the parking brake.Cold Weather Starting (FlexibleFuel Vehicles Only)The starting characteristics of all gradesof E85 ethanol make it unsuitable for usewhen ambient temperatures fall below0°F (-18°C). Consult your fuel distributorfor the availability of winter grade ethanol.As the outside temperature approachesfreezing, ethanol fuel distributors shouldsupply winter grade ethanol (same as withunleaded gasoline). If summer gradeethanol is used in cold weather conditions,0°F to 32°F (-18°C to 0°C), you mayexperience increased cranking times, roughidle or hesitation until the engine haswarmed up.You may experience a decrease in peakperformance when the engine is cold whenoperating on E85 ethanol.136F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Starting and Stopping the EngineDo not crank the engine for more than 10seconds at a time as starter damage mayoccur. If the engine fails to start, turn thekey to off and wait 30 seconds beforetrying again.Do not use starting fluid such as ether inthe air intake system. Such fluid couldcause immediate explosive damage to theengine and possible personal injury.If you should experience cold weatherstarting problems on E85 ethanol, andneither an alternative brand of E85 ethanolnor an engine block heater is available, theaddition of unleaded gasoline to your tankimproves cold starting performance. Yourvehicle is designed to operate on E85ethanol alone, unleaded gasoline alone, orany mixture of the two.If the Engine Fails to Start Using thePreceding Instructions (Flexible FuelVehicles Only)1. Press and hold down the acceleratorone-third to one-half the way to thefloor, then crank the engine.2. When the engine starts, release thekey, then gradually release theaccelerator pedal as the engine speedsup. If the engine still fails to start,repeat Step 1.Guarding Against Exhaust FumesWARNINGIf you smell exhaust fumes insideyour vehicle, have your vehiclechecked by your authorized dealerimmediately. Do not drive your vehicle ifyou smell exhaust fumes. Carbonmonoxide is present in exhaust fumes.Take precautions to avoid its dangerouseffects.Important Ventilating InformationIf you stop your vehicle and the leave theengine idling for long periods of time, werecommend that you do one of thefollowing:• Open the windows at least 1 inch (2.5centimeters)• Set your climate control to outside air.ENGINE BLOCK HEATER (IFEQUIPPED)WARNINGSFailure to follow engine block heaterinstructions could result in propertydamage or serious personal injury.Do not use your heater withungrounded electrical systems ortwo-pronged adapters. There is a riskof electrical shock.Note: The heater is most effective whenoutdoor temperatures are below 0°F(-18°C).The heater acts as a starting aid bywarming the engine coolant. This allowsthe climate control system to respondquickly. The equipment includes a heaterelement (installed in the engine block) anda wire harness. You can connect thesystem to a grounded 120-volt ACelectrical source.We recommend that you do the followingfor a safe and correct operation:• Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension cordthat is product certified byUnderwriter’s Laboratory (UL) orCanadian Standards Association(CSA). This extension cord must besuitable for use outdoors, in cold137F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Starting and Stopping the Enginetemperatures, and be clearly markedSuitable for Use with OutdoorAppliances. Do not use an indoorextension cord outdoors. This couldresult in an electric shock or become afire hazard.• Use as short an extension cord aspossible.• Do not use multiple extension cords.• Make sure that when in operation, theextension cord plug and heater cordplug connections are free and clear ofwater. This could cause an electricshock or fire.• Make sure your vehicle is parked in aclean area, clear of combustibles.• Make sure the heater, heater cord andextension cord are firmly connected.• Check for heat anywhere in theelectrical hookup once the system hasbeen operating for approximately 30minutes.• Make sure the system is unplugged andproperly stowed before driving yourvehicle. Make sure the protective coverseals the prongs of the block heatercord plug when not in use.• Make sure the heater system ischecked for proper operation beforewinter.Using the Engine Block HeaterMake sure the receptacle terminals areclean and dry prior to use. Clean them witha dry cloth if necessary.The heater uses 0.4 to 1.0 kilowatt-hoursof energy per hour of use. The system doesnot have a thermostat. It achievesmaximum temperature afterapproximately three hours of operation.Using the heater longer than three hoursdoes not improve system performance andunnecessarily uses electricity.138F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Fuel and RefuelingSAFETY PRECAUTIONSWARNINGSDo not overfill the fuel tank. Thepressure in an overfilled tank maycause leakage and lead to fuel sprayand fire.The fuel system may be underpressure. If you hear a hissing soundnear the fuel filler door, do not refueluntil the sound stops. Otherwise, fuel mayspray out, which could cause seriouspersonal injury.Automotive fuels can cause seriousinjury or death if you misuse ormishandle them.Fuel ethanol and gasoline maycontain benzene, which is acancer-causing agent.When refueling always shut theengine off and never allow sparks oropen flames near the filler neck.Never smoke or use a cell phone whilerefueling. Fuel vapor is extremelyhazardous under certain conditions. Avoidinhaling excess fumes.The flow of fuel through a fuel pumpnozzle can produce static electricity,which can cause a fire if you pumpfuel into an ungrounded fuel container.Observe the following guidelines whenhandling automotive fuel:• Extinguish all smoking materials andany open flames before refueling yourvehicle.• Automotive fuels can be harmful orfatal if swallowed. Fuel such asgasoline is highly toxic and ifswallowed can cause death orpermanent injury. If swallowed, call aphysician immediately, even if nosymptoms are immediately apparent.The toxic effects of fuel may not bevisible for hours.• Avoid inhaling fuel vapors. Inhaling toomuch fuel vapor of any kind can leadto eye and respiratory tract irritation.In severe cases, excessive or prolongedbreathing of fuel vapor can causeserious illness and permanent injury.• Avoid getting fuel liquid in your eyes. Ifyou splash fuel in your eyes, removecontact lenses (if worn), flush withwater for 15 minutes and seek medicalattention. Failure to seek propermedical attention could lead topermanent injury.• Fuels can also be harmful if absorbedthrough the skin. If you splash fuel onyour skin, clothing or both, promptlyremove contaminated clothing andwash your skin thoroughly with soapand water. Repeated or prolonged skincontact with fuel liquid or vapor causesskin irritation.• Be particularly careful if you are taking“Antabuse” or other forms of disulfiramfor the treatment of alcoholism.Breathing gasoline vapors, or skincontact could cause an adversereaction. In sensitive individuals, seriouspersonal injury or sickness may result.If you splash fuel on your skin, promptlywash your skin thoroughly with soapand water. Consult a physicianimmediately if you experience anadverse reaction.139F150 (TF6) , enUSA

This situationmay have an adverse effect on powertraincomponents.If you have run out of fuel:• You may need to cycle the ignition fromOff to On several times after refuelingto allow the fuel system to pump thefuel from the fuel tank to the engine.On restarting, cranking time will take afew seconds longer than normal.• Normally, adding 1 gallon (3.8 liters) offuel is enough to restart the engine. Ifthe vehicle is out of fuel and on a steepgrade, more than 1 gallon (3.8 liters)may be required.• The service engine soon indicator maycome on. For more information on theservice engine soon indicator, SeeWarning Lamps and Indicators(page 82).• For information on calculating DTE(Distance to empty), See InstrumentCluster (page 81).Refilling With a Portable FuelContainerWARNINGSDo not insert the nozzle of portablefuel containers or aftermarketfunnels into the Easy Fuel “no cap”fuel system. This could damage the fuelsystem and its seal, and may cause fuel torun onto the ground instead of filling thetank, which could result in serious personalinjury.Do not try to pry open or push openthe Easy Fuel “no cap” fuel systemwith foreign objects. This coulddamage the fuel system and its seal andcause injury to you or others.Note: When filling the vehicle’s fuel tankfrom a portable fuel container, use thefunnel included with the vehicle.With the Easy Fuel “no cap” fuel system,use the following directions when fillingfrom a portable fuel container:E142668141F150 (TF6) , enUSA

Locate the white plastic funnel.• In SuperCab and SuperCrewvehicles, it is located under thesecond row driver side seat nearthe spare tire toolbox.• On regular cab vehicles, the funnelis located behind the driver seat.Slowly insert the portable fuelcontainer into the fuel filler opening.2. Fill the vehicle with fuel from theportable fuel container.3. When done, clean the funnel orproperly dispose of it. You canpurchase extra funnels from yourauthorized dealer if you choose todispose of the funnel. Do not useaftermarket funnels; they will not workwith the Easy Fuel system and candamage it. The included funnel hasbeen specially designed to work safelywith your vehicle.REFUELINGWARNINGSFuel vapor burns violently and a fuelfire can cause severe injuries.Read and follow all the instructionson the pump island.Turn off your engine when you arerefueling.Do not smoke if you are near fuel orrefueling your vehicle.Keep sparks, flames and smokingmaterials away from fuel.Stay outside your vehicle and do notleave the fuel pump unattendedwhen refueling your vehicle. This isagainst the law in some places.Keep children away from the fuelpump; never let children pump fuel.WARNINGSDo not use personal electronicdevices while refueling.Use the following guidelines to avoidelectrostatic charge build-up when fillingan ungrounded fuel container:• Place approved fuel container on theground.• Do not fill a fuel container while it is inthe vehicle (including the cargo area).• Keep the fuel pump nozzle in contactwith the fuel container while filling.• Do not use a device that would holdthe fuel pump handle in the fill position.Easy Fuel Capless Fuel SystemWARNINGThe fuel system may be underpressure. If you hear a hissing soundnear the fuel filler door, do not refueluntil the sound stops. Otherwise, fuel mayspray out, which could cause seriouspersonal injury.When fueling your vehicle:1. Put the vehicle in P (Park) and turn theignition off.2. Open the fuel filler door.E156032142F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Fuel and Refueling3. Slowly insert the fuel filler nozzle fullyinto the fuel system, and leave thenozzle fully inserted to open both doorsuntil you are done pumping. Holdhandle higher during insertion for easieraccess.4. Insert either the fuel fill nozzle or thefuel fill funnel provided with the vehicleseveral times to allow the inlet to closeproperly. This will dislodge any debrispreventing the inlet from sealing.If this action corrects the problem, themessage may not reset immediately. Itmay take several driving cycles for themessage to turn off. A driving cycleconsists of an engine start-up (after 4 ormore hours with the engine off) followedby city or highway driving. Continuing todrive with the message on may cause theservice engine soon lamp to turn on aswell.E1547654. After you are done pumping fuel, slowlyremove the fuel filler nozzle—allowabout 5 to 10 seconds after pumpingfuel before removing the fuel fillernozzle. This allows residual fuel todrain back into the fuel tank and notspill onto the vehicle.Note: A fuel spillage concern may occur ifoverfilling the fuel tank. Do not overfill thetank. The fill pipe is equiped with a drainhole. Excess fuel due to overfill may drainthrough the drain hole and drip onto theground."If the fuel fill inlet was not properly closed,a Check Fuel Fill Inlet message mayappear on the instrument cluster.At the next opportunity, do the following:1. Safely pull off the road.2. Put the vehicle in P (Park) and turn theignition off.3. Open the fuel filler door and removeany visible debris from the fuel fillopening.FUEL CONSUMPTIONEmpty reserve is the amount of fuelremaining in the tank after the fuel gaugeindicates empty. The amount of usablefuel in the empty reserve varies and shouldnot be relied upon to increase driving range.• The usable capacity of the fuel tank isthe amount of fuel that can be addedinto the tank after the gauge indicatesempty• The advertised capacity is the total fueltank size. See Capacities andSpecifications (page 296). It is thecombined usable capacity plus theempty reserve.• Due to the empty reserve, you may notbe able to refuel the full amount of theadvertised capacity of the fuel tankeven when the fuel gauge reads empty.Filling the TankFor consistent results when filling the fueltank:143F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Fuel and Refueling• Turn the ignition off before fueling; aninaccurate reading results if the engineis left running.• Use the same fill rate(low-medium-high) each time the tankis filled.• Allow no more than two automaticclick-offs when filling.Results are most accurate when the fillingmethod is consistent.Calculating Fuel EconomyDo not measure fuel economy during thefirst 1000 miles (1600 kilometers) ofdriving (this is your engine’s break-inperiod); a more accurate measurement isobtained after 2000 miles - 3000 miles(3200 kilometers - 4800 kilometers). Also,fuel expense, frequency of fill ups or fuelgauge readings are not accurate ways tomeasure fuel economy.1. Fill the fuel tank completely and recordthe initial odometer reading.2. Each time you fill the tank, record theamount of fuel added.3. After at least 3 to 5 tank fill ups, fill thefuel tank and record the currentodometer reading.4. Subtract your initial odometer readingfrom the current odometer reading.5. Calculate fuel economy by dividingmiles traveled by gallons used (ForMetric: Multiply liters used by 100, thendivide by kilometers traveled).Keep a record for at least 1 month andrecord the type of driving (city or highway).This provides an accurate estimate of thevehicle’s fuel economy under currentdriving conditions. Additionally, keepingrecords during summer and winter showhow temperature impacts fuel economy.In general, lower temperatures mean lowerfuel economy.Conditions• Heavily loading a vehicle or towing atrailer may reduce fuel economy at anyspeed.• Carrying unnecessary weight mayreduce fuel economy (approximately1 mpg [0.4 km/L] is lost for every 400pounds [180 kilograms] of weightcarried).• Adding certain accessories to yourvehicle (for example bug deflectors,rollbars/light bars, running boards, skiracks) may reduce fuel economy.• Using fuel blended with alcohol maylower fuel economy.• Fuel economy may decrease with lowertemperatures during the first 8–10miles (12–16 kilometers) of driving.• Driving on flat terrain offers improvedfuel economy as compared to drivingon hilly terrain.• Transmissions give their best fueleconomy when operated in the topcruise gear and with steady pressureon the gas pedal.• Close windows for high speed driving.EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMWARNINGSDo not park, idle, or drive your vehiclein dry grass or other dry ground cover.The emission system heats up theengine compartment and exhaust system,which can start a fire.Exhaust leaks may result in entry ofharmful and potentially lethal fumesinto the passenger compartment. Ifyou smell exhaust fumes inside yourvehicle, have your dealer inspect yourvehicle immediately. Do not drive if yousmell exhaust fumes.144F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Fuel and RefuelingYour vehicle is equipped with variousemission control components and acatalytic converter that will enable yourvehicle to comply with applicable exhaustemission standards. To make sure that thecatalytic converter and other emissioncontrol components continue to workproperly:• Use only the specified fuel listed.• Avoid running out of fuel.• Do not turn off the ignition while yourvehicle is moving, especially at highspeeds.• Have the items listed in scheduledmaintenance information performedaccording to the specified schedule.The scheduled maintenance items listedin scheduled maintenance information areessential to the life and performance ofyour vehicle and to its emissions system.If you use parts other than Ford, Motorcraftor Ford-authorized parts for maintenancereplacements, or for service ofcomponents affecting emission control,such non-Ford parts should be theequivalent to genuine Ford Motor Companyparts in performance and durability.Illumination of the service engine soonindicator, charging system warning light orthe temperature warning light, fluid leaks,strange odors, smoke or loss of enginepower could indicate that the emissioncontrol system is not working properly.An improperly operating or damagedexhaust system may allow exhaust toenter the vehicle. Have a damaged orimproperly operating exhaust systeminspected and repaired immediately.Do not make any unauthorized changes toyour vehicle or engine. By law, vehicleowners and anyone who manufactures,repairs, services, sells, leases, tradesvehicles, or supervises a fleet of vehiclesare not permitted to intentionally removean emission control device or prevent itfrom working. Information about yourvehicle’s emission system is on the VehicleEmission Control Information Decallocated on or near the engine. This decalalso lists engine displacementPlease consult your warranty informationfor complete details.On-Board Diagnostics (OBD-II)Your vehicle is equipped with an on-boarddiagnostics system (OBD-II) that monitorsthe engine’s emission control system. Thissystem protects the environment byensuring that your vehicle continues tomeet government emission standards. TheOBD-II system also assists your authorizeddealer in properly servicing your vehicle.When the service engine soonindicator illuminates, the OBD-IIsystem has detected amalfunction. Temporary malfunctions maycause the service engine soon indicator toilluminate.Examples of temporary malfunctions are:• the vehicle has run out of fuel—theengine may misfire or run poorly• poor fuel quality or water in thefuel—the engine may misfire or runpoorly• the fuel fill inlet may not have beenproperly closed See Refueling (page142).• driving through deep water—theelectrical system may be wet.You can correct these temporarymalfunctions by filling the fuel tank withgood quality fuel, properly closing the fuelfill inlet or letting the electrical system dryout. After three driving cycles without theseor any other temporary malfunctions145F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Fuel and Refuelingpresent, the service engine soon indicatorshould stay off the next time you start theengine. A driving cycle consists of a coldengine startup followed by mixedcity/highway driving. No additional vehicleservice is required.If the service engine soon indicator remainson, have your vehicle serviced at the firstavailable opportunity. Although somemalfunctions detected by the OBD-II maynot have symptoms that are apparent,continued driving with the service enginesoon indicator on can result in increasedemissions, lower fuel economy, reducedengine and transmission smoothness, andlead to more costly repairs.Readiness forInspection/Maintenance (I/M)TestingSome state/provincial and localgovernments may haveInspection/Maintenance (I/M) programsto inspect the emission control equipmenton your vehicle. Failure to pass thisinspection could prevent you from gettinga vehicle registration.If the service engine soonindicator is on or the bulb doesnot work, you may need to havethe vehicle serviced. See On-BoardDiagnostics (OBD-II).Your vehicle may not pass the I/M test ifthe service engine soon indicator is on ornot working properly (bulb is burned out),or if the OBD-II system has determinedthat some of the emission control systemshave not been properly checked. In thiscase, your vehicle is not ready for I/Mtesting.If the vehicle’s engine or transmission hasjust been serviced, or the battery hasrecently run down or been replaced, theOBD-II system may indicate that thevehicle is not ready for I/M testing. Todetermine if the vehicle is ready for I/Mtesting, turn the ignition key to the onposition for 15 seconds without crankingthe engine. If the service engine soonindicator blinks eight times, it means thatthe vehicle is not ready for I/M testing; ifthe service engine soon indicator stays onsolid, it means that the vehicle is ready forI/M testing.The OBD-II system monitors the emissioncontrol system during normal driving.

Avoid sharp turns, excessivespeed and abrupt maneuvers in thesevehicles. Failure to drive cautiously couldresult in an increased risk of loss of vehiclecontrol, vehicle rollover, personal injury anddeath.Truck and utility vehicles can differ fromsome other vehicles. Your vehicle may behigher to allow it to travel over roughterrain without getting hung up ordamaging underbody components.The differences that make your vehicle soversatile also make it handle differentlythan an ordinary passenger car.Maintain steering wheel control at alltimes, especially in rough terrain. Sincesudden changes in terrain can result inabrupt steering wheel motion, make sureyou grip the steering wheel from theoutside. Do not grip the spokes.Drive cautiously to avoid vehicle damagefrom concealed objects such as rocks andstumps.You should either know the terrain orexamine maps of the area before driving.Map out your route before driving in thearea. To maintain steering and brakingcontrol of your vehicle, you must have allfour wheels on the ground and they mustbe rolling, not sliding or spinning.Driving Off-Road With Truck andUtility VehiclesNote: On some models, the initial shift fromtwo-wheel drive to four-wheel drive whilethe vehicle is moving can cause somemomentary clunk and ratcheting sounds.This is the front drivetrain coming up tospeed and the automatic locking hubsengaging and is not cause for concern.Note: Your vehicle may be equipped witha front air dam that can become damaged(due to reduced ground clearance) whentaking your vehicle off-road. This air damcan be taken off by removing two bolts.Four-wheel drive vehicles are speciallyequipped for driving on sand, snow, mudand rough terrain and have operatingcharacteristics that are somewhatdifferent from conventional vehicles, bothon and off the road.156F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Four-Wheel Drive (If Equipped)Power is supplied to all four wheelsthrough a transfer case. On Four-wheeldrive vehicles, the transfer case allows youto select 4WD when necessary.Information on transfer case operation andshifting procedures can be found in thischapter. Information on transfer casemaintenance can be found in theMaintenance chapter. You should becomethoroughly familiar with this informationbefore you operate your vehicle.Four-wheel drive (when you select a 4WDmode) uses all four wheels to power thevehicle. This increases traction, enablingyou to drive over terrain and roadconditions that a conventional two-wheeldrive vehicle cannot.Basic Operating Principles• Drive slower in strong crosswinds whichcan affect the normal steeringcharacteristics of your vehicle.• When driving your vehicle on surfacesmade slippery by loose sand, water,gravel, snow or ice proceed with care.• Do not use Four-wheel drive on dry,hard surfaced roads. Doing so willproduce excessive noise, increase tirewear and may damage drivecomponents. Four-wheel drive modesare only intended for consistentlyslippery or loose surfaces.If Your Vehicle leaves the RoadIf your vehicle leaves the road, reduce yourvehicle speed and avoid severe braking.When your vehicle speed has been reducedease your vehicle back onto the road. Donot turn the steering wheel sharply whilereturning your vehicle to the road.It may be safer to stay on the shoulder ofthe road and slow down gradually beforereturning to the road. You may lose controlif you do not slow down or if you turn thesteering wheel too sharply or abruptly.It may be less risky to strike small objects,such as freeway reflectors, with minordamage to your vehicle rather thanattempt a sudden return to the road whichcould cause your vehicle to slide sidewaysout of control or roll over. Remember, yoursafety and the safety of others should beyour primary concern.Emergency ManeuversIn an unavoidable emergency situationwhere a sudden sharp turn must be made,remember to avoid over-driving yourvehicle (i.e. turn the steering wheel only asrapidly and as far as required to avoid theemergency). Excessive steering can resultin loss of vehicle control. Apply smoothpressure to the accelerator pedal or brakepedal when changes in vehicle speed arerequired. Avoid abrupt steering,acceleration and braking. This could resultin an increased risk of vehicle roll over, lossof vehicle control and personal injury. Useall available road surface to bring yourvehicle to a safe direction of travel.In the event of an emergency stop, avoidskidding the tires and do not attempt anysharp steering wheel movements.If your vehicle goes from one type ofsurface to another (i.e. from concrete togravel) there will be a change in the wayyour vehicle responds to a maneuver (i.e.steering, acceleration or braking).SandWhen driving over sand, try to keep all fourwheels on the most solid area of the trail.Avoid reducing the tire pressures but shiftto a lower gear and drive steadily throughthe terrain. Apply the accelerator slowlyand avoid excessive wheel slip.When driving at slow speeds in deep sandunder high outside temperatures, use a lowgear when possible. Low gear operationwill maximize the engine and transmissioncooling capability.157F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Four-Wheel Drive (If Equipped)Avoid driving at excessive speeds, thiscauses vehicle momentum to work againstyou and your vehicle could become stuckto the point that assistance may berequired from another vehicle. Remember,you may be able to back out the way youcame if you proceed with caution.Mud and WaterMudBe cautious of sudden changes in vehiclespeed or direction when you are driving inmud. Even four-wheel drive vehicles canlose traction in slick mud. If your vehicledoes slide, steer in the direction of the slideuntil you regain control of your vehicle.After driving through mud, clean off residuestuck to rotating driveshafts and tires.Excess mud stuck on tires and rotatingdriveshafts can cause an imbalance thatcould damage drive components.WaterIf you must drive through high water, driveslowly. Traction or brake capability maybe limited.When driving through water, determine thedepth and avoid water higher than thebottom of the hubs. If the ignition systemgets wet, your vehicle may stall.Once through water, always try the brakes.Wet brakes do not stop your vehicle aseffectively as dry brakes. Drying can beimproved by applying light pressure to thebrake pedal while moving slowly.Note: Driving through deep water maydamage the transmission. If the front or rearaxle is submerged in water, the axlelubricant and power transfer unit lubricantshould be checked and changed ifnecessary.Driving on Hilly or Sloping TerrainAlthough natural obstacles may make itnecessary to travel diagonally up or downa hill or steep incline, you should alwaystry to drive straight up or straight down.Note: Avoid turning on steep slopes or hills.A danger lies in losing traction, slippingsideways and possible vehicle roll over.Whenever driving on a hill, determinebeforehand the route you will use. Do notdrive over the crest of a hill without seeingwhat conditions are on the other side. Donot drive in reverse over a hill without theaid of an observer.When climbing a steep slope or hill, startin a lower gear rather than downshifting toa lower gear from a higher gear once theascent has started. This reduces strain onthe engine and the possibility of stalling.If your vehicle stalls, do not try to turnaround because this could cause vehicleroll over. It is better to reverse back to asafe location.Apply just enough power to the wheels toclimb the hill. Too much power will causethe tires to slip, spin or lose traction,resulting in loss of vehicle control.E143949158F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Four-Wheel Drive (If Equipped)Descend a hill in the same gear you woulduse to climb up the hill to avoid excessivebrake application and brake overheating.Do not descend in neutral. Disengageoverdrive or move the transmissionselector lever to a lower gear. Whendescending a steep hill, avoid sudden hardbraking as you could lose control. The frontwheels have to be turning in order to steeryour vehicle.If your vehicle has anti-lock brakes, applythe brakes steadily. Do not pump thebrakes.Driving on Snow and IceWARNINGIf you are driving in slipperyconditions that require tire chains orcables, then it is critical that you drivecautiously. Keep speeds down, allow forlonger stopping distances and avoidaggressive steering to reduce the chancesof a loss of vehicle control which can leadto serious injury or death. If the rear end ofyour vehicle slides while cornering, steer inthe direction of the slide until you regaincontrol of your vehicle.Note: Excessive tire slippage can causetransmission damage.Four-wheel drive vehicles have advantagesover two-wheel drive vehicles in snow andice but can skid like any other vehicle.Should you start to slide while driving onsnowy or icy roads, turn the steering wheelin the direction of the slide until you regaincontrol.Avoid sudden applications of power andquick changes of direction on snow andice. Apply the accelerator slowly andsteadily when starting from a full stop.Avoid sudden braking. Although afour-wheel drive vehicle may acceleratebetter than a two-wheel drive vehicle insnow and ice, it will not stop any faster asbraking occurs at all four wheels. Do notbecome overconfident as to roadconditions.Make sure you allow sufficient distancebetween you and other vehicles forstopping. Drive slower than usual andconsider using one of the lower gears. Inemergency stopping situations, apply thebrake steadily. Do not pump the brakepedal. See Hints on Driving WithAnti-Lock Brakes (page 163).If Your Vehicle Gets Stuck In Mud orSnowWARNINGDo not spin the wheels at over 35mph (56 km/h). The tires may failand injure a passenger or bystander.If your vehicle gets stuck in mud or snow,it may be rocked out by shifting betweenforward and reverse gears, stoppingbetween shifts in a steady pattern. Presslightly on the accelerator in each gear.Note: Do not rock your vehicle if the engineis not at normal operating temperature,damage to the transmission may occur.Note: Do not rock your vehicle for morethan a minute, damage to the transmissionand tires may occur or the engine mayoverheat.ParkingWARNINGSIf the parking brake is fully released,but the brake warning lamp remainsilluminated, the brakes may not beworking properly. See your authorizeddealer.159F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Four-Wheel Drive (If Equipped)WARNINGSAlways set the parking brake fullyand make sure the gearshift islatched in P (Park). Turn the ignitionto the off position and remove the keywhenever you leave your vehicle.On some Four-wheel drive vehicles, whenthe transfer case is in the N (Neutral)position, the engine and transmission aredisconnected from the rest of the driveline.Therefore, the vehicle is free to roll even ifthe automatic transmission is in P (Park)or the manual transmission is in gear. Donot leave the vehicle unattended with thetransfer case in the N (Neutral) position.Always set the parking brake fully and turnoff the ignition when leaving the vehicle.Maintenance and ModificationsThe suspension and steering systems onyour vehicle have been designed andtested to provide predictable performancewhether loaded or empty. For this reason,we strongly recommend that you do notmake modifications such as adding orremoving parts (i.e. lift kits or stabilizerbars) or by using replacement parts notequivalent to the original factoryequipment.We recommend that you use caution whenyour vehicle has either a high load or device(i.e. ladder or luggage racks). Anymodifications to your vehicle that raise thecenter of gravity may cause your vehicleto roll over when there is a loss of vehiclecontrol.Failure to maintain your vehicle correctlymay void the warranty, increase your repaircost, reduce vehicle performance andoperational capabilities and adverselyaffect you and your passenger's safety. Werecommend you frequently inspect yourvehicle's chassis components when yourvehicle is subject to off road usage.160F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Rear AxleLIMITED SLIP DIFFERENTIAL(IF EQUIPPED)This axle provides added traction onslippery surfaces, particularly when onewheel is on a poor traction surface. Undernormal conditions, the limited-slip axlefunctions like a standard rear axle. The axlemay exhibit a slight noise or vibrationduring tight turns with low vehicle speed.This is normal behavior and indicates theaxle is working.ELECTRONIC LOCKINGDIFFERENTIAL (IF EQUIPPED)Note: The electronic locking differential isfor off-road use only and is not for use ondry pavement. Using the electronic lockingdifferential on dry pavement will result inincreased tire wear, noise and vibration.The electronic locking differential is adevice housed in the rear axle that allowsboth rear wheels to turn at the samespeed. The electronic locking differentialcan provide additional traction should yourvehicle become stuck. You can activatethe differential electronically and shift iton the fly within the differential operatingspeed range. The differential is for use inmud, rocks, sand, or any off-road conditionwhere you need maximum traction. It isnot for use on dry pavement.The following conditions will affect theelectronic locking differential:• The electronic locking differential willnot engage if your vehicle speed isabove 20 mph (32 km/h) in 4x2, 4x4Auto, or 4x4 High modes• The electronic locking differential willnot engage if your vehicle speed isabove or 56 mph (90 km/h) in 4X4Low• The electronic locking differential willnot engage if you press youraccelerator pedal beyond 50% duringan engagement attempt• In 4x2, 4x4 Auto, and 4x4 High modes,the electronic locking differential willautomatically disengage at speedsabove 25 mph (41 km/h) and willautomatically reengage at speedsbelow 20 mph (32 km/h)• In 4L (4X4 low), the electronic lockingdifferential will automaticallydisengage at speeds above 62 mph(100 km/h) and will automaticallyreengage at speeds below 56 mph (90km/h)• The AdvanceTrac system has theability to take over control of theelectronic locking differential anddisable it during driving maneuverswhen necessaryWhen you switch the system on, if you donot meet the required conditions forelectronic locking differential activation,the instrument cluster will display theappropriate information guiding youthrough the proper activation process.Activating the Electronic LockingDifferential (If Equipped)Note: Do not use electronic lockingdifferential on dry, hard surfaced roads.Doing so will produce excessive noise,vibration and increase tire wear.Note: If the electronic locking differentialhas difficulty disengaging, release theaccelerator pedal and turn the steeringwheel in the opposite direction while rolling.161F150 (TF6) , enUSA

BrakesGENERAL INFORMATIONNote: Occasional brake noise is normal. Ifa metal-to-metal, continuous grinding orcontinuous squeal sound is present, thebrake linings may be worn-out. Have thesystem checked by an authorized dealer. Ifyour vehicle has continuous vibration orshudder in the steering wheel while braking,have it checked by an authorized dealer.Note: Brake dust may accumulate on thewheels, even under normal drivingconditions. Some dust is inevitable as thebrakes wear and does not contribute tobrake noise. See Cleaning the AlloyWheels (page 264).E144522See Warning Lamps andIndicators (page 82).Wet brakes result in reduced brakingefficiency. Gently press the brake pedal afew times when driving from a car wash orstanding water to dry the brakes.Brake Over AcceleratorIn the event the accelerator pedalbecomes stuck or entrapped, apply steadyand firm pressure to the brake pedal toslow the vehicle and reduce engine power.If you experience this condition, apply thebrakes and bring your vehicle to a safestop. Move the transmission selector leverto position P, switch the engine off andapply the parking brake. Inspect theaccelerator pedal for any interference. Ifnone are found and the condition persists,have your vehicle towed to the nearestauthorized dealer.Brake AssistBrake assist detects when you brakerapidly by measuring the rate at which youpress the brake pedal. It providesmaximum braking efficiency as long as youpress the pedal, and can reduce stoppingdistances in critical situations.Anti-lock Brake SystemThis system helps you maintain steeringcontrol during emergency stops by keepingthe brakes from locking.This lamp momentarilyilluminates when you turn theignition on. If the light does notilluminate during start up, remains on orflashes, the system may be disabled. Havethe system checked by an authorizeddealer.If the system is disabled, normalbraking is still effective. If theE144522brake warning lamp illuminateswhen you release the parking brake, havethe system checked by an authorizeddealer.HINTS ON DRIVING WITHANTI-LOCK BRAKESNote: When the system is operating, thebrake pedal will pulse and may travelfurther. Maintain pressure on the brakepedal. You may also hear a noise from thesystem. This is normal.The anti-lock braking system will noteliminate the risks when:• you drive too closely to the vehicle infront of you• your vehicle is hydroplaning• you take corners too fast• the road surface is poor.163F150 (TF6) , enUSA


BrakesPARKING BRAKEWARNINGAlways set the parking brake fullyand make sure the transmission isplaced in park (P). Failure to set theparking brake and engage park could resultin vehicle roll-away, property damage orbodily injury. Turn the ignition to the lockposition and remove the key whenever youleave your vehicle.Apply the parking brake whenever yourvehicle is parked. Press the pedaldownward to set the parking brake. Thebrake warning lamp in the instrumentcluster will illuminate and remainsilluminated until the parking brake isreleased.To release, pull the brake release leverlocated at the lower left side of theinstrument panel.If you are parking your vehicle on a gradeor with a trailer, press and hold the brakepedal down, then set the parking brake.There may be a little vehicle movement asthe parking brake sets to hold the vehicle'sweight. This is normal and should be noreason for concern. If needed, press andhold the service brake pedal down, thentry reapplying the parking brake. Chock thewheels if required. If the parking brakecannot hold the weight of the vehicle, theparking brake may need to be serviced orthe vehicle may be overloaded.HILL START ASSISTWARNINGSThe system does not replace theparking brake. When you leave yourvehicle, always apply the parkingbrake and put the transmission in park (P).WARNINGSYou must remain in your vehicle onceyou have activated the system.During all times, you are responsiblefor controlling your vehicle,supervising the system andintervening, if required.If the engine is revved excessively, orif a malfunction is detected, thesystem will be deactivated.The system makes it easier to pull awaywhen your vehicle is on a slope without theneed to use the parking brake.When the system is active, your vehicle willremain stationary on the slope for two tothree seconds after you release the brakepedal. This allows you time to move yourfoot from the brake to the acceleratorpedal. The brakes are releasedautomatically once the engine hasdeveloped sufficient drive to prevent yourvehicle from rolling down the slope. Thisis an advantage when pulling away on aslope, (for example from a car park ramp,traffic lights or when reversing uphill intoa parking space).The system will activate automatically onany slope that will cause significant vehiclerollback.Using Hill Start Assist1. Press the brake pedal to bring yourvehicle to a complete standstill. Keepthe brake pedal pressed.2. If the sensors detect that your vehicleis on a slope, the system will activateautomatically.3. When you remove your foot from thebrake pedal, your vehicle will remainon the slope without rolling away forabout two or three seconds. This holdtime will automatically be extended ifyou are in the process of driving off.164F150 (TF6) , enUSA

Traction ControlPRINCIPLE OF OPERATIONThe traction control system helps avoiddrive wheel spin and loss of traction.If your vehicle begins to slide, the systemapplies the brakes to individual wheelsand, when needed, reduces engine powerat the same time. If the wheels spin whenaccelerating on slippery or loose surfaces,the system reduces engine power in orderto increase traction.USING TRACTION CONTROLIn certain situations (for example, stuck insnow or mud), you can turn the tractioncontrol off. This may be beneficial as thisallows the wheels to spin with full enginepower.E166706Turn the traction control system off bypressing the stability control buttonlocated on the center of the instrumentpanel.System Indicator Lights andMessagesWARNINGIf a failure has been detected withinthe traction control system, thestability control light will illuminatesteadily. Verify that the traction controlsystem was not manually disabled usingthe stability control button. If the stabilitycontrol light still illuminates steadily, havethe system serviced by an authorizeddealer immediately. Operating your vehiclewith traction control disabled could leadto an increased risk of loss of vehiclecontrol, vehicle rollover, personal injury anddeath.The stability control lighttemporarily illuminates onE138639engine start-up and flasheswhen a driving condition activates thestability system.The stability control off lighttemporarily illuminates onengine start-up and stays onwhen you turn the traction control systemoff or if a problem occurs in the stabilitysystem.166F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Stability ControlPRINCIPLE OF OPERATIONWARNINGSVehicle modifications involvingbraking system, aftermarket roofracks, suspension, steering system,tire construction and wheel and tire sizemay change the handling characteristicsof your vehicle and may adversely affectthe performance of the AdvanceTracsystem. In addition, installing any stereoloudspeakers may interfere with andadversely affect the AdvanceTrac system.Install any aftermarket stereo loudspeakeras far as possible from the front centerconsole, the tunnel, and the front seats inorder to minimize the risk of interfering withthe AdvanceTrac sensors. Reducing theeffectiveness of the AdvanceTrac systemcould lead to an increased risk of loss ofvehicle control, vehicle rollover, personalinjury and death.Remember that even advancedtechnology cannot defy the laws ofphysics. It’s always possible to losecontrol of a vehicle due to inappropriatedriver input for the conditions. Aggressivedriving on any road condition can causeyou to lose control of your vehicleincreasing the risk of personal injury orproperty damage. Activation of theAdvanceTrac system is an indication thatat least some of the tires have exceededtheir ability to grip the road; this couldreduce the operator’s ability to control thevehicle potentially resulting in a loss ofvehicle control, vehicle rollover, personalinjury and death. If your AdvanceTracsystem activates, SLOW DOWN.The AdvanceTrac with Roll StabilityControl system helps you keep control ofyour vehicle when on a slippery surface.The electronic stability control portion ofthe system helps avoid skids and lateralslides and roll stability control helps avoida vehicle rollover. The traction controlsystem helps avoid drive wheel spin andloss of traction.

Terrain Response (If Equipped)PRINCIPLE OF OPERATIONWARNINGSHill descent control cannot controldescent in all surface conditions andcircumstances, such as ice orextremely steep grades. Hill descentcontrol is a driver assist system and cannotsubstitute for good judgment by the driver.Failure to do so may result in loss of vehiclecontrol, crash or serious injury.Hill descent control does not providehill hold at zero miles per hour (0kilometers per hour). When stopped,the parking brake must be applied or thevehicle must be placed in P (Park) or itmay roll away.Hill descent control allows the driver to setand maintain vehicle speed whiledescending steep grades in various surfaceconditions.Hill descent control can maintain vehiclespeeds on downhill grades between 2 mph(3 km/h) and 12 mph (20 km/h). Above 20mph (32 km/h), the system remainsarmed, but descent speed cannot be setor maintained.Hill descent control requires a coolingdown interval after a period of sustaineduse. The amount of time that the featurecan remain active before cooling varieswith conditions. The system will provide awarning in the message center and a chimewill sound when the system is about todisengage for cooling. At this time,manually apply the brakes as needed tomaintain descent speed.USING HILL DESCENTCONTROLPress and release the hilldescent button located on theE163957instrument panel.

Parking AidsPARKING AID (IF EQUIPPED)WARNINGSTo help avoid personal injury, pleaseread and understand the limitationsof the system as contained in thissection. Sensing is only an aid for some(generally large and fixed) objects whenmoving in reverse on a flat surface atparking speeds. Traffic control systems,inclement weather, air brakes, and externalmotors and fans may also affect thefunction of the sensing system; this mayinclude reduced performance or a falseactivation.To help avoid personal injury, alwaysuse caution when in R (Reverse) andwhen using the sensing system.This system is not designed toprevent contact with small or movingobjects. The system is designed toprovide a warning to assist the driver indetecting large stationary objects to avoiddamaging the vehicle. The system may notdetect smaller objects, particularly thoseclose to the ground.Certain add-on devices such as largetrailer hitches, bike or surfboard racksand any device that may block thenormal detection zone of the system, maycreate false beeps.Note: Keep the sensors, located on thebumper or fascia, free from snow, ice andlarge accumulations of dirt. If the sensorsare covered, the system’s accuracy can beaffected. Do not clean the sensors withsharp objects.Note: If your vehicle sustains damage tothe bumper or fascia, leaving it misalignedor bent, the sensing zone may be alteredcausing inaccurate measurement ofobstacles or false alarms.Note: If your vehicle is equipped withMyKey, it is possible to prevent turningthe sensing system off. See MyKey (page53).Note: If your vehicle is equipped with a fullyintegrated electronic trailer brake controller(TBC) and a trailer with electric trailerbrakes is connected to your vehicle, the RSSwill be disabled. When the vehicle is shiftedinto reverse, the information display willremain in the Rear Park Aid Off selection.For more information on the TBC, SeeTrailer Sway Control (page 192).The sensing system warns the driver ofobstacles within a certain range of thebumper area. The system turns onautomatically whenever the ignition isswitched on.When receiving a detection warning, theradio volume is reduced to apredetermined level. After the warninggoes away, the radio volume returns to theprevious level.Rear Sensing SystemThe rear sensors are only active when thetransmission is in R (Reverse). As thevehicle moves closer to the obstacle, therate of the audible warning increases.When the obstacle is fewer than 12 inches(30 centimeters) away, the warningsounds continuously. If a stationary orreceding object is detected farther than 12inches (30 centimeters) from the side ofthe vehicle, the tone sounds for only threeseconds. Once the system detects anobject approaching, the warning soundsagain.172F150 (TF6) , enUSA

Load CarryingLOAD LIMITVehicle Loading - with andwithout a TrailerThis section will guide you in theproper loading of your vehicle,trailer or both, to keep your loadedvehicle weight within its designrating capability, with or withouta trailer. Properly loading yourvehicle will provide maximumreturn of vehicle designperformance. Before loading yourvehicle, familiarize yourself withthe following terms fordetermining your vehicle’s weightratings, with or without a trailer,from the vehicle’s Tire Label orSafety Compliance CertificationLabel:Base Curb Weight - is the weightof the vehicle including a full tankof fuel and all standardequipment. It does not includepassengers, cargo, or optionalequipment.Vehicle Curb Weight - is theweight of your new vehicle whenyou picked it up from yourauthorized dealer plus anyaftermarket equipment.PAYLOADE143816Payload - is the combined weightof cargo and passengers that thevehicle is carrying. The maximumpayload for your vehicle can befound on the Tire Label on theB-Pillar or the edge of the driverdoor (vehicles exported outsidethe US and Canada may not havea Tire Label). Look for “THECOMBINED WEIGHT OFOCCUPANTS AND CARGOSHOULD NEVER EXCEED XXXkg OR XXX lb.” for maximumpayload. The payload listed on theTire Label is the maximumpayload for the vehicle as built bythe assembly plant. If you installany aftermarket orauthorized-dealer installedequipment on the vehicle, youmust subtract the weight of theequipment from the payload listedon the Tire Label in order todetermine the new payload.179F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Load CarryingWARNINGThe appropriate loadingcapacity of your vehicle canbe limited either by volumecapacity (how much space isavailable) or by payload capacity(how much weight the vehicleshould carry). Once you havereached the maximum payload ofyour vehicle, do not add morecargo, even if there is spaceavailable. Overloading orimproperly loading your vehiclecan contribute to loss of vehiclecontrol and vehicle rollover.Example only:E142516180F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Load CarryingE142517CARGOE143817Cargo Weight - includes allweight added to the Base CurbWeight, including cargo andoptional equipment. When towing,trailer tongue load or king pinweight is also part of cargo weight.GAW (Gross Axle Weight) - isthe total weight placed on eachaxle (front and rear) includingvehicle curb weight and allpayload.GAWR (Gross Axle WeightRating) - is the maximumallowable weight that can becarried by a single axle (front orrear). These numbers are shownon the Safety ComplianceCertification Label. The label shallbe affixed to either the door hingepillar, door-latch post, or the dooredge that meets the door-latchpost, next to the driver's seatingposition.

(Important: The towingvehicle’s braking system is rated183F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Load Carryingfor operation at Gross VehicleWeight Rating, not at GrossCombined Weight Rating.)Separate functional brakes shouldbe used for safe control of towedvehicles and for trailers where theGross Combined Weight of thetowing vehicle plus the trailerexceed the Gross Vehicle WeightRating of the towing vehicle. TheGross Combined Weight mustnever exceed the GrossCombined Weight Rating.Maximum Loaded TrailerWeight - is the highest possibleweight of a fully loaded trailer thevehicle can tow. It assumes avehicle with mandatory options,driver and front passenger weight(150 pounds [68 kilograms]each), no cargo weight (internalor external) and a tongue load of10–15% (conventional trailer) orking pin weight of 15–25% (fifthwheel trailer). Consult anauthorized dealer (or the RV andTrailer Towing Guide available atan authorized dealer) for moredetailed information.Tongue Load or Fifth WheelKing Pin Weight - refers to theamount of the weight that a trailerpushes down on a trailer hitch.Examples: For a 5000 pound(2268 kilogram) conventionaltrailer, multiply 5000 by 0.10 and0.15 to obtain a proper tongueload range of 500 to 750 pounds(227 to 340 kilograms). For an11500 pound (5216 kilogram) fifthwheel trailer, multiply by 0.15 and0.25 to obtain a proper king pinload range of 1725 to 2875 pounds(782 to 1304 kilograms).WARNINGSDo not exceed the GVWR orthe GAWR specified on theSafety Compliance CertificationLabel.Do not use replacement tireswith lower load carryingcapacities than the original tiresbecause they may lower thevehicle’s GVWR and GAWRlimitations. Replacement tireswith a higher limit than the originaltires do not increase the GVWRand GAWR limitations.Exceeding any vehicle weightrating limitation could resultin serious damage to the vehicleand/or personal injury.Steps for determining thecorrect load limit:1. Locate the statement "Thecombined weight of occupantsand cargo should never exceedXXX kg or XXX lb." on yourvehicle’s placard.184F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Load Carrying2. Determine the combinedweight of the driver andpassengers that will be ridingin your vehicle.3. Subtract the combined weightof the driver and passengersfrom XXX kg or XXX lb.4. The resulting figure equals theavailable amount of cargo andluggage load capacity. Forexample, if the “XXX” amountequals 1,400 lb. and there willbe five 150 lb. passengers inyour vehicle, the amount ofavailable cargo and luggageload capacity is 650 lb.(1400-750 (5 x 150) = 650 lb.)5. Determine the combinedweight of luggage and cargobeing loaded on the vehicle.That weight may not safelyexceed the available cargo andluggage load capacitycalculated in Step 4.6. If your vehicle will be towing atrailer, load from your trailerwill be transferred to yourvehicle. Consult this manual todetermine how this reduces theavailable cargo and luggageload capacity of your vehicle.The following gives you a fewexamples on how to calculate theavailable amount of cargo andluggage load capacity:*Suppose your vehicle has a1400-pound (635-kilogram) cargoand luggage capacity. You decideto go golfing. Is there enough loadcapacity to carry you, four of yourfriends and all the golf bags? Youand four friends average 220pounds (99 kilograms) each andthe golf bags weigh approximately30 pounds (13.5 kilograms) each.The calculation would be: 1400 -(5 x 220) - (5 x 30) = 1400 - 1100- 150 = 150 pounds. Yes, you haveenough load capacity in yourvehicle to transport four friendsand your golf bags. In metric units,the calculation would be: 635kilograms - (5 x 99 kilograms) -(5 x 13.5 kilograms) = 635 - 495 -67.5 = 72.5 kilograms.*Suppose your vehicle has a1400-pound (635-kilogram) cargoand luggage capacity. You andone of your friends decide to pickup cement from the local homeimprovement store to finish thatpatio you have been planning forthe past two years. Measuring theinside of the vehicle with the rearseat folded down, you have roomfor twelve 100-pound(45-kilogram) bags of cement. Doyou have enough load capacity totransport the cement to yourhome? If you and your friend eachweigh 220 pounds (99 kilograms),the calculation would be: 1400 -(2 x 220) - (12 x 100) = 1400 - 440- 1200 = - 240 pounds. No, you donot have enough cargo capacityto carry that much weight. Inmetric units, the calculation would185F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Load Carryingbe: 635 kilograms - (2 x 99kilograms) - (12 x 45 kilograms) =635 - 198 - 540 = -103 kilograms.You will need to reduce the loadweight by at least 240 pounds(104 kilograms). If you removethree 100-pound (45-kilogram)cement bags, then the loadcalculation would be:1400 - (2 x220) - (9 x 100) = 1400 - 440 -900 = 60 pounds. Now you havethe load capacity to transport thecement and your friend home. Inmetric units, the calculation wouldbe: 635 kilograms - (2 x 99kilograms) - (9 x 45 kilograms) =635 - 198 - 405 = 32 kilograms.The above calculations alsoassume that the loads arepositioned in your vehicle in amanner that does not overloadthe Front or the Rear Gross AxleWeight Rating specified for yourvehicle on the Safety ComplianceCertification Label. The label shallbe affixed to either the door hingepillar, door-latch post, or the dooredge that meets the door-latchpost, next to the driver's seatingposition.Special Loading Instructionsfor Owners of Pick-up Trucksand Utility-type VehiclesWARNINGLoaded vehicles may handledifferently than unloadedvehicles. Extra precautions, suchas slower speeds and increasedstopping distance, should betaken when driving a heavilyloaded vehicle.Your vehicle can haul more cargoand people than most passengercars.

TowingTOWING A TRAILERWARNINGSDo not exceed the GVWR orthe GAWR specified on thecertification label.Towing trailers beyond themaximum recommendedgross trailer weight exceeds thelimit of the vehicle and couldresult in engine damage,transmission damage, structuraldamage, loss of vehicle control,vehicle rollover and personalinjury.Your vehicle may have electricalitems, such as fuses or relays,related to towing. See the Fuseschapter.Your vehicle's load capacitydesignation is by weight, not byvolume, so you cannot necessarilyuse all available space whenloading a vehicle.Towing a trailer places an extraload on your vehicle's engine,transmission, axle, brakes, tiresand suspension. Inspect thesecomponents periodically during,and after, any towing operation.Load PlacementTo help minimize how trailermovement affects your vehiclewhen driving:• Load the heaviest items closestto the trailer floor.• Load the heaviest itemscentered between the left andright side trailer tires.• Load the heaviest items abovethe trailer axles or just slightlyforward toward the trailertongue. Do not allow the finaltrailer tongue weight to goabove or below 10-15% of theloaded trailer weight.• Select a tow bar with thecorrect rise or drop. When boththe loaded vehicle and trailerare connected, the trailer frameshould be level, or slightlyangled down toward yourvehicle, when viewed from theside.When driving with a trailer orpayload, a slight takeoff vibrationor shudder may be present due tothe increased payload weight.Additional information regardingproper trailer loading and settingyour vehicle up for towing islocated in another chapter of thismanual. See Load Limit (page179). You can also find theinformation in the RV & TrailerTowing Guide, available at anauthorized dealer.191F150 (TF6) , enUSA


TowingTRAILER SWAY CONTROL (IFEQUIPPED)WARNINGTurning off trailer sway controlincreases the risk of loss of vehiclecontrol, serious injury or death. Forddoes not recommend disabling this featureexcept in situations where speed reductionmay be detrimental (such as hill climbing),the driver has significant trailer towingexperience, and can control trailer swayand maintain safe operation.Note: This feature does not prevent trailersway, but reduces it once it begins.Note: This feature cannot stop all trailersfrom swaying.Note: In some cases, if vehicle speed is toohigh, the system may activate multipletimes, gradually reducing vehicle speed.This feature applies your vehicle brakes atindividual wheels and, if necessary, reducesengine power. If the trailer begins to sway,the stability control light flashes and themessage TRAILER SWAY REDUCESPEED appears in the information display.The first thing to do is slow your vehicledown, then pull safely to the side of theroad and check for proper tongue load andtrailer load distribution. See LoadCarrying (page 179).RECOMMENDED TOWINGWEIGHTSNote: Do not exceed a trailerweight of 5000 pounds (2268kilograms) when towing with, orby, bumper only.Note: Do not exceed a trailerweight of 5000 pounds (2268kilograms) if your vehicle is notequipped with a Heavy Duty TrailerTowing Package.Note: Make sure to take intoconsideration trailer frontal area.Vehicles not equipped with theTrailer Tow Package or the HeavyDuty Payload Package should notexceed 36 feet 2 lb (3.35 meters 2 )trailer frontal area. Vehiclesequipped with the Trailer TowPackage or the Heavy Duty PayloadPackage should not exceed 60feet 2 lb (5.6 meters 2 ) trailer frontalarea.Note: Exceeding this limitationmay significantly reduce theperformance of your towingvehicle. Selecting a trailer with alow aerodynamic drag and roundedfront design helps optimizeperformance and fuel economy.Note: For high altitude operation,reduce the gross combined weightby 2% per 1000 feet (300 meters)starting at the 1000 foot (300meter) elevation point.Note: Certain states requireelectric trailer brakes for trailersover a specified weight. Be sure tocheck state regulations for thisspecified weight. The maximumtrailer weights listed may be limitedto this specified weight, as yourvehicle's electrical system may notinclude the wiring connectorneeded to use electric trailerbrakes.192F150 (TF6) , enUSA

TowingThis equals the maximum loadedtrailer weight for this combination.Note: The trailer tongue load isconsidered part of the payload foryour vehicle. Reduce the totalpayload by the final trailer tongueweight.Note: Consult an authorized dealerto determine the maximum trailerweight allowed for your vehicle ifyou are not sure.ESSENTIAL TOWING CHECKSFollow these guidelines for safe towing:• Do not tow a trailer until you drive yourvehicle at least 1000 miles (1600kilometers).• Consult your local motor vehicle lawsfor towing a trailer.• See the instructions included withtowing accessories for the properinstallation and adjustmentspecifications.• Service your vehicle more frequently ifyou tow a trailer. See your scheduledmaintenance information.• If you use a rental trailer, follow theinstructions the rental agency givesyou.See Load limits in the Load Carryingchapter for load specification terms foundon the tire label and Safety Compliancelabel and instructions on calculating yourvehicle's load.Remember to account for the trailertongue weight as part of your vehicle loadwhen calculating the total vehicle weight.Trailer Towing ConnectorE163167When attaching the trailer wiring connectorto your vehicle, only use a proper fittingconnector that works with the vehicle andtrailer functions. Some seven-positionconnectors may have the SAE J2863 logo,which confirms that it is the proper wiringconnector and works correctly with yourvehicle.ColorYellowWhiteBlueGreenOrangeBrownGreyHitchesFunctionLeft turn signal and stop lampGround (-)Electric brakesRight turn signal and stoplampBattery (+)Running lightsReverse lightsDo not use a hitch that either clamps ontothe bumper or attaches to the axle. Youmust distribute the load in your trailer sothat 10-15% of the total weight of thetrailer is on the tongue.201F150 (TF6) , enUSA


TowingWeight-distributing HitchesWARNINGDo not adjust a weight-distributinghitch to any position where the rearbumper of the vehicle is higher thanit was before attaching the trailer. Doingso will defeat the function of theweight-distributing hitch, which may causeunpredictable handling, and could resultin serious personal injury.When hooking-up a trailer using aweight-distributing hitch, always use thefollowing procedure:1. Park the loaded vehicle, without thetrailer, on a level surface.2. Measure the height to the top of yourvehicle's front wheel opening on thefender. This is H1.3. Attach the loaded trailer to your vehiclewithout the weight-distributing barsconnected.4. Measure the height to the top of yourvehicle's front wheel opening on thefender a second time. This is H2.5. Install and adjust the tension in theweight-distributing bars so that theheight of your vehicle's front wheelopening on the fender is approximatelyhalfway between H1 and H2.6. Check that the trailer is level or slightlynose down toward your vehicle. If not,adjust the ball height accordingly andrepeat Steps 2-6.Once the trailer is level or slightly nosedown toward the vehicle:• Lock the bar tension adjuster in place.• Check that the trailer tongue securelyattaches and locks onto the hitch.• Install safety chains, lighting, and trailerbrake controls as required by law or thetrailer manufacturer.Safety ChainsNote: Do not attach safety chains to thebumper.Always connect the safety chains to theframe or hook retainers of your vehiclehitch.To connect the safety chains, cross thechains under the trailer tongue and allowenough slack for turning tight corners. Donot allow the chains to drag on the ground.Trailer BrakesWARNINGDo not connect a trailer's hydraulicbrake system directly to yourvehicle's brake system. Your vehiclemay not have enough braking power andyour chances of having a collision greatlyincrease.Electric brakes and manual, automatic orsurge-type trailer brakes are safe if youinstall them properly and adjust them tothe manufacturer's specifications. Thetrailer brakes must meet local and federalregulations.The rating for the tow vehicle's brakingsystem operation is at the gross vehicleweight rating, not the gross combinedweight rating.Separate functioning brake systemsare required for safe control of towedvehicles and trailers weighing morethan 1500 pounds (680 kilograms)when loaded.202F150 (TF6) , enUSA


TowingIntegrated Trailer Brake Controller (IfEquipped)WARNINGThe Ford trailer brake controller hasbeen verified to be compatible withtrailers having electric-actuateddrum brakes (one to four axles) andelectric-over-hydraulic brakes. It will notactivate hydraulic surge-style trailerbrakes. It is the responsibility of thecustomer to ensure that the trailer brakesare adjusted appropriately, functioningnormally and all electric connections areproperly made. Failure to do so may resultin loss of vehicle control, crash or seriousinjury.BAA: Manual control lever: Slide the controllever to the left to turn on the trailer'selectric brakes independent of the towvehicle's See the following Procedure foradjusting gain section for instructions onproper use of this feature. If you use themanual control while the brake is alsoapplied, the greater of the two inputsdetermines the power sent to the trailerbrakes.• Stop lamps: Using the manual controllever illuminates both the trailer brakelamps and your vehicle brake lampsexcept the center high-mount stoplamp, if you make the proper electricalconnection to the trailer. Pressing yourvehicle brake pedal also illuminatesboth trailer and vehicle brake lamps.B: + and - (Gain adjustment buttons):Pressing these buttons adjusts thecontroller's power output to the trailerbrakes in 0.5 increments. You can increasethe gain setting to 10.0 (maximum trailerbraking) or decrease it to 0 (no trailerbraking). Pressing and holding a buttonraises or lowers the setting continuously.The gain setting displays in the messagecenter as follows: TBC GAIN = XX.X.E166403When used properly, the trailer brakecontroller assists in smooth and effectivetrailer braking by powering the trailer’selectric or electric-over-hydraulic brakeswith a proportional output based on thetowing vehicle’s brake pressure.The controller user interface consists ofthe following:203F150 (TF6) , enUSA


TowingThe controller shows gain setting, outputbar graph, and trailer connectivity statusin the information display. They appear inthe information display as follows:• TBC GAIN = XX.X NO TRAILER:Shows the current gain setting duringa given ignition cycle and whenadjusting the gain. This also displays ifyou use the manual control lever ormake gain adjustments with no trailerconnected.• TBC GAIN = XX.X OUTPUT=/ / / // /: Displays when you push yourvehicle's brake pedal, or upon use ofthe manual control. Bar indicatorsilluminate in the information display toindicate the amount of power going tothe trailer brakes relative to the brakepedal or manual control input. One barindicates the least amount of output;six bars indicate maximum output.• TRAILER CONNECTED: Displayswhen the system senses a correcttrailer wiring connection (a trailer withelectric trailer brakes) during a givenignition cycle.• TRAILER DISCONNECTED: Displays,accompanied by a single audible time,when the system senses a trailerconnection and then a disconnection,either intentional or unintentional,during a given ignition cycle. It alsodisplays if a truck or trailer-wiring faultoccurs causing the trailer to appeardisconnected. This message can alsodisplay if you use the manual controllever without a trailer connected.Procedure for Adjusting GainNote: Only perform this procedure in atraffic-free environment at speeds ofapproximately 20-25 mph (30-40 km/h).The gain setting sets the trailer brakecontroller for the specific towing condition.You should change the setting as towingconditions change. Changes to towingconditions include trailer load, vehicle load,road conditions and weather.The gain should be set to provide themaximum trailer braking assistance whilemaking sure the trailer wheels do not lockwhen using the brakes. Locked trailerwheels may lead to trailer instability.1. Make sure the trailer brakes are in goodworking condition, functioning normallyand properly adjusted. See your trailerdealer if necessary.2. Hook up the trailer and make theelectrical connections according to thetrailer manufacturer's instructions.3. When you plug in a trailer with electricor electric-over-hydraulic brakes,TRAILER CONNECTED appears inthe information display.4. Use the gain adjustment (+ and -)buttons to increase or decrease thegain setting to the desired startingpoint. A gain setting of 6.0 is a goodstarting point for heavier loads.5. In a traffic-free environment, tow thetrailer on a dry, level surface at a speedof 20-25 mph (30-40 km/h) andsqueeze the manual control levercompletely.6. If the trailer wheels lock up, indicatedby squealing tires, reduce the gainsetting. If the trailer wheels turn freely,increase the gain setting. Repeat Steps5 and 6 until the gain setting is at apoint just below trailer wheel lock-up.If towing a heavier trailer, trailer wheellock-up may not be attainable evenwith the maximum gain setting of 10.204F150 (TF6) , enUSA


TowingExplanation of Information DisplayWarning MessagesNote: An authorized dealer can diagnosethe trailer brake controller to determineexactly which trailer fault has occurred.However, your Ford warranty does not coverthis diagnosis if the fault is with the trailer.TRAILER BRAKE MODULE FAULT:Displays in response to faults sensed bythe trailer brake controller, accompaniedby a single tone. If this message appears,contact an authorized dealer as soon aspossible for diagnosis and repair. Thecontroller may still function, butperformance may be degraded.WIRING FAULT ON TRAILER: Displayswhen there is a short circuit on the electricbrake output wire. If the WIRING FAULTON TRAILER message displays,accompanied by a single tone, with notrailer connected, the problem is with yourvehicle wiring between the trailer brakecontroller and the 7-pin connector at thebumper. If the message only displays witha trailer connected, the problem is with thetrailer wiring. Consult your trailer dealer forassistance. This can be a short to ground(such as a chaffed wire), short to voltage(such as a pulled pin on trailer emergencybreakaway battery) or the trailer brakesmay be drawing too much current.Points to RememberNote: Do not attempt removal of the trailerbrake controller without consulting theWorkshop Manual. Damage to the unit mayresult.• Adjust gain setting before using thetrailer brake controller for the first time.• Adjust gain setting, using the procedureabove, whenever road, weather andtrailer or vehicle loading conditionschange from when the gain was initiallyset.• Only use the manual control lever forproper adjustment of the gain duringtrailer setup. Misuse, such asapplication during trailer sway, couldcause instability of trailer or towvehicle.• Avoid towing in adverse weatherconditions. The trailer brake controllerdoes not provide anti-lock control ofthe trailer wheels. Trailer wheels canlock up on slippery surfaces, resultingin reduced stability of trailer and towvehicle.• The trailer brake controller is equippedwith a feature that reduces output atvehicle speeds below 11 mph (18 km/h)so trailer and vehicle braking is not jerkyor harsh. This feature is only availablewhen applying the brakes using yourvehicle's brake pedal, not thecontroller.• The controller interacts with the brakecontrol system and powertrain controlsystem of your vehicle to provide thebest performance on different roadconditions.• Your vehicle's brake system and thetrailer brake system workindependently of each other. Changingthe gain setting on the controller doesnot affect the operation of yourvehicle's brakes whether you attach atrailer or not.• When you switch the engine off, thecontroller output is disabled and thedisplay and module shut down. Thecontroller module and display turn onwhen you switch the ignition on.• The trailer brake controller is only afactory-installed or dealer-installeditem. Ford is not responsible forwarranty or performance of thecontroller due to misuse or customerinstallation.205F150 (TF6) , enUSA


TowingTrailer LampsWARNINGNever connect any trailer lamp wiringto the vehicle's tail lamp wiring; thismay damage the electrical systemresulting in fire. Contact your authorizeddealer as soon as possible for assistancein proper trailer tow wiring installation.Additional electrical equipment may berequired.Trailer lamps are required on most towedvehicles. Make sure all running lights, brakelights, turn signals and hazard lights areworking.Using a Step Bumper (If Equipped)The rear bumper is equipped with anintegral hitch and only requires a ball witha one-inch (25.4 millimeter) shankdiameter. The bumper has a 5000-pound(2268 kilogram) trailer weight and a500-pound (227 kilogram) tongue weightcapacityIf it is necessary to relocate the hitch ballposition, you must install a frame-mountedtrailer hitch.Before Towing a TrailerPractice turning, stopping and backing upto get the feel of your vehicle-trailercombination before starting on a trip.When turning, make wider turns so thetrailer wheels clear curbs and otherobstacles.When Towing a Trailer• Do not drive faster than 70 mph (113km/h) during the first 500 miles (800kilometers).• Do not make full-throttle starts.• Check your hitch, electrical connectionsand trailer wheel lug nuts thoroughlyafter you have traveled 50 miles (80kilometers).• When stopped in congested or heavytraffic during hot weather, place thegearshift in position P to aid engine andtransmission cooling and to help A/Cperformance.• Turn off the speed control with heavyloads or in hilly terrain. The speedcontrol may turn off automaticallywhen you are towing on long, steepgrades.• Shift to a lower gear when driving downa long or steep hill. Do not apply thebrakes continuously, as they mayoverheat and become less effective.• If your transmission is equipped with aGrade Assist or Tow/Haul feature, usethis feature when towing. This providesengine braking and helps eliminateexcessive transmission shifting foroptimum fuel economy andtransmission cooling.• If your vehicle is equipped withAdvanceTrac with RSC, this systemmay turn on during typical corneringmaneuvers with a heavily loaded trailer.This is normal. Turning the corner at aslower speed while towing may reducethis tendency.• If you are towing a trailer frequently inhot weather, hilly conditions, at thegross combined weight rating (or anycombination of these factors), considerrefilling your rear axle with syntheticgear lubricant (if the axle is not alreadyfilled with it). See Capacities andSpecifications (page 296).• Allow more distance for stopping witha trailer attached. Anticipate stops andbrake gradually.• Avoid parking on a grade. However, ifyou must park on a grade:206F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Towing1. Turn the steering wheel to point yourvehicle tires away from traffic flow.2. Set your vehicle parking brake.3. Place the automatic transmission inposition P.4. Place wheel chocks in front and backof the trailer wheels. (Chocks notincluded with vehicle.)Your vehicle may be equipped with atemporary or conventional spare tire. A"temporary" spare tire is different in size(diameter or width), tread-type(All-Season or All Terrain) or is from adifferent manufacturer than the road tireson your vehicle. Consult information on thetire label or Safety Compliance label forlimitations when using.Replace the rear axle lubricant anytimethe rear axle has been submerged in water.Water may have contaminated the rearaxle lubricant, which is not normallychecked or changed unless a leak issuspected or other axle repair is required.TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLELaunching or Retrieving a Boat orPersonal Watercraft (PWC)Note: Disconnect the wiring to the trailerbefore backing the trailer into the water.Note: Reconnect the wiring to the trailerafter the trailer is removed from the water.When backing down a ramp during boatlaunching or retrieval:• Do not allow the static water level torise above the bottom edge of the rearbumper.• Do not allow waves to break higherthan 6 inches (15 centimeters) abovethe bottom edge of the rear bumper.Exceeding these limits may allow water toenter vehicle components:• Causing internal damage to thecomponents.• Affecting driveability, emissions, andreliability.E143886If you need to have your vehicle towed,contact a professional towing service or,if you are a member of a roadsideassistance program, your roadsideassistance service provider.We recommend the use of a wheel lift anddollies or flatbed equipment to tow yourvehicle. Do not tow with a slingbelt. FordMotor Company has not approved aslingbelt towing procedure. Vehicledamage may occur if towed incorrectly, orby any other means.207F150 (TF6) , enUSA


TowingFord Motor Company produces a towingmanual for all authorized tow truckoperators. Have your tow truck operatorrefer to this manual for proper hook-upand towing procedures for your vehicle.It is acceptable to have your two-wheeldrive vehicle towed with the front wheelson the ground (without dollies) and therear wheels off the ground.We recommend towing a four-wheel drivevehicle with all wheels off the ground, suchas using a wheel lift and dollies or flatbedequipment.TOWING THE VEHICLE ONFOUR WHEELSEmergency TowingIf your vehicle becomes inoperable(without access to wheel dollies,car-hauling trailer, or flatbed transportvehicle), it can be flat-towed (all wheelson the ground, regardless of the powertrainand transmission configuration) under thefollowing conditions:• Your vehicle is facing forward fortowing in a forward direction.• Place the transmission in position N. Ifyou cannot move the transmission intoN, you may need to override it. SeeTransmission (page 147).• Maximum speed is 35 mph (56 km/h).• Maximum distance is 50 miles (80kilometers).Recreational TowingNote: Put your climate control system inrecirculated air mode to prevent exhaustfumes from entering your vehicle.

Driving HintsBREAKING-INYou need to break in new tires forapproximately 300 miles (480kilometers). During this time, your vehiclemay exhibit some unusual drivingcharacteristics.Avoid driving too fast during the first 1000miles (1600 kilometers). Vary your speedfrequently and change up through thegears early. Do not labor the engine.Do not tow during the first 1000 miles(1600 kilometers).ECONOMICAL DRIVINGYour fuel economy is affected by severalthings, such as how you drive, theconditions you drive under, and how youmaintain your vehicle.You may improve your fuel economy bykeeping these things in mind:• Accelerate and slow down in a smooth,moderate fashion.• Drive at steady speeds withoutstopping.• Anticipate stops; slowing down mayeliminate the need to stop.• Combine errands and minimizestop-and-go driving.• Close the windows for high-speeddriving.• Drive at reasonable speeds (travelingat 55 mph [88 km/h] uses 15% lessfuel than traveling at 65 mph [105km/h]).• Keep the tires properly inflated and useonly the recommended size.• Use the recommended engine oil.• Perform all regularly scheduledmaintenance.Avoid these actions; they reduce your fueleconomy:• Sudden accelerations or hardaccelerations.• Revving the engine before turning it off.• Idle for periods longer than one minute.• Warm up your vehicle on coldmornings.• Use the air conditioner or frontdefroster.• Use the speed control in hilly terrain.• Rest your foot on the brake pedal whiledriving.• Drive a heavily loaded vehicle or tow atrailer.• Carry unnecessary weight(approximately 1 mpg [0.4 km/L] islost for every 400 lb [180 kilogram] ofweight carried).• Driving with the wheels out ofalignment.Conditions• Heavily loading a vehicle or towing atrailer may reduce fuel economy at anyspeed.• Adding certain accessories to yourvehicle (for example bug deflectors,rollbars, light bars, running boards, skiracks or luggage racks) may reducefuel economy.• To maximize the fuel economy, drivewith the tonneau cover installed (ifequipped).• Using fuel blended with alcohol maylower fuel economy.• Fuel economy may decrease with lowertemperatures during the first 8–10miles (12–16 kilometers) of driving.• Driving on flat terrain offers improvedfuel economy as compared to drivingon hilly terrain.210F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Driving Hints• Transmissions give their best fueleconomy when operated in the topcruise gear and with steady pressureon the gas pedal.• Four-wheel-drive operation (ifequipped) is less fuel efficient thantwo-wheel-drive operation.• Close the windows for high-speeddriving.FLOOR MATSDRIVING THROUGH WATERNote: Driving through deep water abovethe recommended levels can cause vehicledamage.If driving through deep or standing wateris unavoidable, proceed very slowly. Neverdrive through water that is higher than thebottom of the wheel rims (for cars) or thebottom of the hubs (for trucks).E142667When driving through water, traction orbrake capability may be limited. Also,water may enter your engine’s air intakeand severely damage your engine or yourvehicle may stall.Once through the water, always dry thebrakes by moving your vehicle slowly whileapplying light pressure on the brake pedal.Wet brakes do not stop the vehicle asquickly as dry brakes.E142666WARNINGSAlways use floor mats that aredesigned to fit the foot well of yourvehicle, leaving the pedal areaunobstructed, and which can be firmlysecured to retention posts so that theycannot slip out of position and interferewith the pedals or impair safe operation ofyour vehicle in other ways.Incorrectly fitted floor mats cancause the accelerator pedal tobecome stuck in the open position.This can cause loss of vehicle control.Always correctly install the floormats to the retention posts so thatthey cannot slip out of position orobstruct pedal operation.Do not place unsecured floor matsor any other covering in the foot well.Do not place additional floor matsor any other covering on top of theoriginal floor mats. This will reducethe pedal clearance and interfere with thepedal operation.Do not allow objects to fall orbecome trapped under the pedals ofyour vehicle. This can cause loss ofvehicle control.Carry out regular inspections to makesure the floor mats are secure.211F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Driving HintsTo install the floor mats, position the floormat eyelet over the retention post andpress down to lock in position.Remove in reverse order.SNOWPLOWINGFor F-150 snowplowing applications, Fordrecommends the F150 4X4 Regular Cab,SuperCrew or SuperCab, equipped withthe 6.2L engine for residentialsnowplowing only.Do not use F-150 vehicles equipped withthe 3.5L, 3.7L or 5.0L engines forsnowplowing.Installing the SnowplowWeight limits and guidelines for selectingand installing the snowplow are in the FordTruck Body Builders Layout Book,snowplow section, found atwww.fleet.ford.com/truckbbas. A typicalinstallation affects the following:• Certification to government safety lawssuch as occupant protection and airbagdeployment, braking, and lighting. Lookfor an Alterer’s Label on the vehiclefrom the snowplow installer certifyingthat the installation meets allapplicable Federal Motor VehicleSafety Standards (FMVSS).• The Total Accessory Reserve Capacity(TARC) is on the lower right side of thevehicle’s Safety ComplianceCertification Label. This applies toFord-completed vehicles of10,000.17 lb (4,536 kg) GVWR or less.This is the weight ofpermanently-attached auxiliaryequipment, such as snowplowframe-mounting hardware, that canbe added to the vehicle and satisfyFord compliance certification toFMVSS. Exceeding this weight mayrequire the auxiliary equipment installeradditional safety certificationresponsibility. The Front AccessoryReserve Capacity (FARC) is for thecustomer convenience.• Rear ballast weight behind the rearaxle may be required to preventexceeding the FGAWR, and providefront-to-rear weight balance for properbraking and steering.• Front wheel toe may requirere-adjustment to prevent prematureuneven tire wear. Specifications are inthe Ford Workshop Manual.• Headlight aim may require adjustment.212F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Driving Hints• The tire air pressures recommendedfor general driving are on the vehicle’sSafety Certification Label. Themaximum cold inflation pressure forthe tire and associated load rating areon the tire sidewall. Tire air pressuremay require re-adjustment within thesepressure limits to accommodate theadditional weight of the snowplowinstallation.• Federal and some local regulationsrequire additional exterior lamps forsnowplow-equipped vehicles. Consultyour authorized dealer for additionalinformation.Operating the Vehicle with theSnowplow AttachedNote: Drive the vehicle at least 500 miles(800 kilometers) before using your vehiclefor snow removal.Ford recommends vehicle speed does notexceed 45 mph (72 km/h) whensnowplowing.The attached snowplow blade restrictsairflow to the radiator, and may cause theengine to run at a higher temperature:Attention to engine temperature isespecially important when outsidetemperatures are above freezing. Anglethe blade to maximize airflow to theradiator and monitor engine temperatureto determine whether a left or right angleprovides the best performance.Follow the severe duty schedule in yourScheduled Maintenance information forengine oil and transmission fluid changeintervals.Snowplowing with your AirbagEquipped VehicleWARNINGSDo not attempt to service, repair, ormodify the airbag supplementalrestraint system (SRS) or its fuses.See your Ford or Lincoln Mercury dealer.Additional equipment such assnowplow equipment may affect theperformance of the airbag sensorsincreasing the risk of injury. Please refer tothe Body Builders Layout Book forinstructions about the appropriateinstallation of additional equipment.All occupants of the vehicle,including the driver, should alwaysproperly wear their safety belts, evenwhen provided with an airbagsupplemental restraint system (SRS).Your vehicle is equipped with a driver andpassenger airbag supplemental restraintsystem. The supplemental restraint systemwill activate in certain frontal and offsetfrontal collisions when the vehicle sustainssufficient longitudinal deceleration.Careless or high speed driving whileplowing snow which results in sufficientvehicle decelerations can deploy theairbag. Such driving also increases the riskof accidents.Never remove or defeat the trippingmechanisms designed into the snowremoval equipment by its manufacturer.Doing so may cause damage to the vehicleand the snow removal equipment as wellas possible airbag deployment.Engine temperature while plowingYour engine may run at a highertemperature than normal because theattached snowplow blade will restrictairflow to the radiator:213F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Driving Hints• If you are driving more than 15 miles(24 kilometers) at temperatures abovefreezing, angle the plow blade eitherfull left or full right to providemaximum airflow to the radiator.• If you are driving less than 15 miles (24kilometers) at speeds up to 45 mph(72 km/h) in cold weather, you will notneed to worry about blade position toprovide maximum airflow.Transmission operation whileplowingWARNINGDo not spin the wheels at over 35mph (55 km/h). The tires may failand injure a passenger or bystander.• Shift transfer case to 4L (4WD Low)when plowing in small areas at speedsbelow5.0 mph (8 km/h).• Shift transfer case to 4H (4WD High)when plowing larger areas or light snowat higher speeds. Do not exceed 15 mph(24 km/h).• Do not shift the transmission from aforward gear to R (Reverse) until theengine is at idle and the wheels havestopped.Outside Air Temperature WhilePlowingWhile plowing with your vehicle, the plowblade can block the sensor airflow andcause the outside air temperature readingto be inaccurate.A Ford wiring kit is available to relocate theOutside Air Temperature sensor to theplow blade frame below the headlamp toprovide accurate outside air temperaturereadings. See your authorized dealer formore information.214F150 (TF6) , enUSA

Set the parking brake and ensure thegearshift is in PPark.4. Open the hood. Protect yourself fromengine heat.5. Locate and carefully remove the engineoil level dipstick. See Under HoodOverview (page 236). in this chapterfor location of the dipstick.B6. Wipe the dipstick clean. Insert thedipstick fully, then remove it again.• If the oil level is between the lowerand upper holes, the oil level isacceptable. DO NOT ADD OIL.• If the oil level is below the lowerhole, add enough oil to raise thelevel within the lower and upperholes.• Oil levels above the upper hole maycause engine damage. Some oilmust be removed from the engineby an authorized dealer.7. Put the oil level dipstick back into theoil dipstick tube and ensure it is fullyseated.Adding Engine OilNote: Do not remove the filler cap whenthe engine is running.Note: Do not remove the engine oil leveldipstick when the engine is running.Note: Do not add oil further than the MAXmark. Oil levels above the MAX mark maycause engine damage.E142732240F150 (TF6) , enUSA


MaintenanceOnly use oils certified for gasoline enginesby the American Petroleum Institute (API).An oil with this trademark symbolconforms to the current engine andemission system protection standards andfuel economy requirements of theInternational Lubricants SpecificationAdvisory Council (ILSAC), comprised ofU.S. and Japanese automobilemanufacturers.1. Check the engine oil level.2. If the engine oil level is not within thenormal range, add engine oil thatmeets Ford specifications. SeeCapacities and Specifications (page296).3. Remove the engine oil filler cap anduse a funnel to pour the engine oil intothe opening.4. Recheck the engine oil level. Make surethe oil level is not above the normaloperating range on the engine oil leveldipstick.5. Install the engine oil level dipstick andensure it is fully seated.6. Fully install the engine oil filler cap byturning the filler cap clockwise untilthree clicks are heard or until the capis fully seated.ENGINE COOLANT CHECKWARNINGSDo not add engine coolant when theengine is hot. Steam and scaldingliquids released from a hot coolingsystem can burn you badly. Also, spillingcoolant on hot engine parts can burn you.Do not put engine coolant in thewindshield washer fluid container. Ifsprayed on the windshield, enginecoolant could make it difficult to seethrough the windshield.WARNINGSTo reduce the risk of personal injury,make sure the engine is cool beforeunscrewing the coolant pressurerelief cap. The cooling system is underpressure. steam and hot liquid can comeout forcefully when you loosen the capslightly.Do not add coolant further than theMAX mark.Checking the Engine CoolantWhen the engine is cold, check theconcentration and level of the enginecoolant at the intervals listed in thescheduled maintenance information. SeeScheduled Maintenance (page 438).Note: Make sure that the coolant level isbetween the MIN and MAX marks on thecoolant reservoir.Note: Coolant expands when it is hot. Thelevel may extend beyond the MAX mark.Note: If the level is at the MIN mark, belowthe MIN mark, or empty, add coolantimmediately. See Adding Engine Coolantin this chapter.Maintain coolant concentration within48% to 50%, which equates to a freezepoint between -30°F (-34°C) and -34°F(-37°C).Note: For best results, coolantconcentration should be tested with arefractometer such as Rotunda tool300-ROB75240 available from yourauthorized dealer. Ford does notrecommend the use of hydrometers orcoolant test strips for measuring coolantconcentrations.Note: Automotive fluids are notinterchangeable. Do not use engine coolant,antifreeze or windshield washer fluid outsideof its specified function and vehicle location.241F150 (TF6) , enUSA


MaintenanceAdding Engine CoolantNote: Do not use stop leak pellets, coolingsystem sealants or additives as they cancause damage to the engine cooling orheating systems. Your warranty may notcover these damages.Note: During normal vehicle operation, theengine coolant may change color fromorange to pink or light red. As long as theengine coolant is clear and uncontaminated,this color change does not indicate that theengine coolant has degraded, nor does itrequire that you drain the engine coolant,flush the system or replace the enginecoolant.Do not mix different colors or types ofcoolant in your vehicle. Mixing of enginecoolants may harm your engine’s coolingsystem. The use of an improper coolantmay harm engine and cooling systemcomponents and may void the warranty.Use prediluted engine coolant meeting theFord specification. See Capacities andSpecifications (page 296).In case of emergency, you can add a largeamount of water without engine coolantin order to reach a vehicle service location.In this instance, qualified personnel:1. Must drain the cooling system.2. Chemically clean the coolant systemwith Motorcraft Premium CoolingSystem Flush.3. Refill with engine coolant as soon aspossible.Water alone, without engine coolant, cancause engine damage from corrosion,overheating or freezing.Do not use the following as a coolantsubstitute:• Alcohol.• Methanol.• Brine.• Any engine coolant mixed with alcoholor methanol antifreeze or coolant.Alcohol and other liquids can cause enginedamage from overheating or freezing.Do not add extra inhibitors or additives tothe coolant. These can be harmful andcompromise the corrosion protection ofthe engine coolant.When adding coolant:1. Unscrew the cap slowly. Any pressurewill escape as you unscrew the cap.2. Add prediluted engine coolant meetingthe Ford specification. See Capacitiesand Specifications (page 296).3. Check the coolant level in the coolantreservoir the next few times you driveyour vehicle.4. If necessary, add enough predilutedengine coolant to bring the coolantlevel to the proper level.Recycled Engine CoolantFord Motor Company does not recommendthe use of recycled engine coolant since aFord-approved recycling process is not yetavailable.Used engine coolant should be disposedof in an appropriate manner. Follow yourcommunity’s regulations and standardsfor recycling and disposing of automotivefluids.242F150 (TF6) , enUSA


MaintenanceSevere ClimatesIf you drive in extremely cold climates:• It may be necessary to have a Fordauthorized dealer increase the coolantconcentration above 50%.• A coolant concentration of 60%provides improved freeze pointprotection. Engine coolantconcentrations above 60% decreasethe overheat protection characteristicsof the engine coolant and may causeengine damage.If you drive in extremely hot climates:• It may be necessary to have a Fordauthorized dealer decrease the coolantconcentration to 40%.• A coolant concentration of 40%provides improved overheat protection.Engine coolant concentrations below40% will decrease the corrosion orfreeze protection characteristics of theengine coolant and may cause enginedamage.Vehicles driven year-round in non-extremeclimates should use prediluted enginecoolant for optimum cooling system andengine protection.What You Should Know About Fail-Safe CoolingIf you deplete the engine coolant supply,fail-safe cooling allows you to temporarilydrive your vehicle before you incurincremental component damage. Thefail-safe distance depends on ambienttemperatures, vehicle load and terrain.How Fail-Safe Cooling WorksIf the engine begins to overheat, the enginecoolant temperature gauge will move tothe red (hot) area and:the coolant temperaturewarning light will illuminatethe service engine soon indicatorwill illuminate.If the engine reaches a presetover-temperature condition, the engineautomatically switches to alternatingcylinder operation. Each disabled cylinderacts as an air pump and cools the engine.When this occurs, your vehicle will stilloperate. However:• The engine power will be limited.• This will disable the air conditioningsystem.Continued operation increases the enginetemperature, causing the engine to shutdown completely. Your steering andbraking effort increases in this situation.Once the engine temperature cools, theengine can be re-started. Take your vehicleto an authorized dealer as soon as possibleto minimize engine damage.When Fail-Safe Mode Is ActivatedWARNINGSFail-safe mode is for use duringemergencies only. Operate yourvehicle in fail-safe mode only as longas necessary to bring your vehicle to restin a safe location and seek immediaterepairs. When in fail-safe mode, yourvehicle will have limited power, will not beable to maintain high-speed operation, andmay completely shut down withoutwarning, potentially losing engine power,power steering assist, and power brakeassist, which may increase the possibilityof a crash resulting in serious injury.Never remove the coolant reservoircap while the engine is running or hot.243F150 (TF6) , enUSA


MaintenanceYou have limited engine power when in thefail-safe mode, so drive your vehicle withcaution. Your vehicle will not maintainhigh-speed operation and the engine willoperate poorly.Remember that the engine is capable ofautomatically shutting down to preventengine damage. In this situation:1. Pull off the road as soon as safelypossible and switch off the engine.2. Tow your vehicle to an authorizeddealer.3. If this is not possible, wait a shortperiod for the engine to cool.4. Check the coolant level and add if low.5. Re-start the engine and drive yourvehicle to an authorized dealer.Note: Driving your vehicle without repairincreases the chance of engine damage. Seean authorized dealer as soon as possible.Engine Fluid TemperatureManagement (If Equipped)WARNINGSTo reduce the risk of collision andinjury, be prepared that the vehiclespeed may reduce and the vehiclemay not be able to accelerate with fullpower until the fluid temperatures reduce.Never remove the coolant reservoircap while the engine is running or hot.Your vehicle can pull a trailer, but becauseof the added load, your vehicle’s enginemay temporarily reach highertemperatures during severe operatingconditions such as ascending a long orsteep grade while pulling a trailer in hightemperatures.At this time, you may notice your enginecoolant temperature gauge needle movetoward the H and the POWER REDUCEDTO LOWER TEMP message may appearin the information display.You may notice a reduction in vehiclespeed caused by reduced engine power.In order to manage the engine fluidtemperatures, your vehicle may enter thismode if certain high-temperature andhigh-load conditions take place. Theamount of speed reduction depends onmany factors such as vehicle loading,towing, grade and ambient temperature.If this occurs, there is no need to pull offthe road. You can continue to drive yourvehicle while this message is active.The air conditioning may also cycle on andoff during severe operating conditions toprotect overheating of the engine. Whenthe engine coolant temperature decreasesto a normal operating temperature, the airconditioning will turn on once again.If the engine coolant temperature gaugemoves fully into the red (hot) area, or if thecoolant temperature warning or serviceengine soon messages appear in yourinformation display:1. Pull off the road as soon as safelypossible and shift the transmission intoP.2. Leave the engine running until thecoolant temperature gauge needlemoves away from the red (hot) area.After several minutes, if thetemperature does not drop, follow theremaining steps.3. Switch the engine off and wait for it tocool before checking the coolant level.4. If the coolant level is normal, restartyour engine and continue.244F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Maintenance5. If the coolant is low, add coolant, andrestart the engine. See Adding EngineCoolant or How Fail-Safe CoolingWorks in this chapter for moreinformation.TRANSFER CASE FLUIDCHECKAUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONFLUID CHECKNote: Transmission fluid should be checkedby an authorized dealer. If required, fluidshould be added by an authorized dealer.The automatic transmission does not havea transmission fluid dipstick.Refer to your scheduled maintenanceinformation for scheduled intervals for fluidchecks and changes. Your transmissiondoes not consume fluid. However, the fluidlevel should be checked if the transmissionis not working properly, (i.e., if thetransmission slips or shifts slowly) or if younotice some sign of fluid leakage.Do not use supplemental transmissionfluid additives, treatments or cleaningagents. The use of these materials mayaffect transmission operation and resultin damage to internal transmissioncomponents.E1704441. Clean the area around the filler plug.2. Remove the filler plug.3. Inspect the fluid level. The fluid levelshould be within 0.40 in (10mm) fromthe bottom of the hole.4. Add fluid through the filler opening, fillto the bottom of the opening.Use only fluid that meets Fordspecifications. Refer to the SeeCapacities and Specifications (page296).245F150 (TF6) , enUSA


MaintenanceBRAKE FLUID CHECKFluid levels between the MIN and MAXlines are within the normal operating range;there is no need to add fluid. If the fluidlevels are outside of the normal operatingrange, the performance of the systemcould be compromised; seek service fromyour authorized dealer immediately.POWER STEERING FLUIDCHECK3.5L, 3.7L and 5.0L EnginesYour vehicle is equipped with an electricpower steering (EPS) system. There is nofluid reservoir to check or fill.6.2L EnginesCheck the power steering fluid. Refer toSee Scheduled Maintenance (page 438).1. Start the engine and let it run until itreaches normal operating temperature(the engine coolant temperature gaugeindicator will be near the center of thenormal area betweenH and C).2. While the engine idles, turn the steeringwheel left and right several times.3. Turn the engine off.4. Check the fluid level in the reservoir. Itshould be between the MIN and MAXlines. Do not add fluid if the level is inthis range.5. If the fluid is low, add fluid in smallamounts, continuously checking thelevel until it reaches the range betweenthe MIN and MAX lines. For the properfluid type, See Capacities andSpecifications (page 296).6. Put the cap back on the reservoir.WASHER FLUID CHECKWARNINGIf you operate your vehicle intemperatures below 40°F (5°C), usewasher fluid with antifreezeprotection. Failure to use washer fluid withantifreeze protection in cold weather couldresult in impaired windshield vision andincrease the risk of injury or accident.Add fluid to fill the reservoir if the level islow. Only use a washer fluid that meetsFord specifications. See Capacities andSpecifications (page 296).State or local regulations on volatileorganic compounds may restrict the useof methanol, a common windshield washerantifreeze additive. Washer fluidscontaining non-methanol antifreezeagents should be used only if they providecold weather protection without damagingthe vehicle’s paint finish, wiper blades orwasher system.FUEL FILTERYour vehicle is equipped with a lifetimefuel filter that is integrated with the fueltank. Regular maintenance or replacementis not needed.CHANGING THE 12V BATTERYWARNINGSBatteries normally produce explosivegases that can cause personal injury.Therefore, do not allow flames,sparks or lighted substances to come nearthe battery. When working near thebattery, always shield your face andprotect your eyes. Always provide properventilation.246F150 (TF6) , enUSA


MaintenanceWARNINGSThis vehicle may be equipped withmore than one battery, removal ofcable from only one battery does notdisconnect your vehicle electrical system.Be sure to disconnect cables from allbatteries when disconnecting power.Failure to do so may cause seriouspersonal injury or property damage.When lifting a plastic-cased battery,excessive pressure on the end wallscould cause acid to flow through thevent caps, resulting in personal injury anddamage to the vehicle or battery. Lift thebattery with a battery carrier or with yourhands on opposite corners.Keep batteries out of reach ofchildren. Batteries contain sulfuricacid. Avoid contact with skin, eyes orclothing. Shield your eyes when workingnear the battery to protect against possiblesplashing of acid solution. In case of acidcontact with skin or eyes, flushimmediately with water for a minimum of15 minutes and get prompt medicalattention. If acid is swallowed, call aphysician immediately.Note: If your battery has a cover/shield,make sure it is reinstalled after the batteryhas been cleaned or replaced.Note: Battery posts, terminals and relatedaccessories contain lead and leadcompounds. Wash hands after handling.Note: Electrical or electronic accessoriesor components added to your vehicle by thedealer or the owner may adversely affectbattery performance and durability.Your vehicle is equipped with a Motorcraftmaintenance-free battery which normallydoes not require additional water duringits life of service.For longer, trouble-free operation, keep thetop of the battery clean and dry. Also,make certain the battery cables are alwaystightly fastened to the battery terminals.If you see any corrosion on the battery orterminals, remove the cables from theterminals and clean with a wire brush. Youcan neutralize the acid with a solution ofbaking soda and water.It is recommended that the negativebattery cable terminal be disconnectedfrom the battery if you plan to store yourvehicle for an extended period of time.Because your vehicle’s engine iselectronically controlled by a computer,some control conditions are maintainedby power from the battery. When thebattery is disconnected or a new batteryis installed, the engine must relearn its idleand fuel trim strategy for optimumdriveability and performance. Flexible fuelvehicles (FFV) must also relearn theethanol content of the fuel for optimumdriveability and performance. To begin thisprocess:1. With your vehicle at a complete stop,set the parking brake.2. Put the gearshift in P(Park), turn off allaccessories.3. Start the engine. Run the engine untilit reaches normal operatingtemperature.4. Allow the engine to idle for at least oneminute.5. Turn the air conditioning on and allowthe engine to idle for at least oneminute.247F150 (TF6) , enUSA

Remember thata tire can lose up to half of its airpressure without appearing flat.Every day before you drive, checkyour tires. If one looks lower thanthe others, use a tire gauge tocheck pressure of all tires andadjust if required.At least once a month and beforelong trips, inspect each tire andcheck the tire pressure with a tiregauge (including spare, ifequipped). Inflate all tires to theinflation pressure recommendedby Ford Motor Company.You are strongly urged to buy areliable tire pressure gauge, asautomatic service station gaugesmay be inaccurate. Fordrecommends the use of a digitalor dial-type tire pressure gaugerather than a stick-type tirepressure gauge.Use the recommended coldinflation pressure for optimum tireperformance and wear.Under-inflation or over-inflationmay cause uneven treadwearpatternsWARNINGUnder-inflation is the mostcommon cause of tire failuresand may result in severe tirecracking, tread separation orblowout, with unexpected loss ofvehicle control and increased riskof injury. Under-inflation increasessidewall flexing and rollingresistance, resulting in heatbuildup and internal damage tothe tire. It also may result inunnecessary tire stress, irregularwear, loss of vehicle control andaccidents. A tire can lose up tohalf of its air pressure and notappear to be flat!Always inflate your tires to theFord recommended inflationpressure even if it is less than themaximum inflation pressureinformation found on the tire. TheFord recommended tire inflationpressure is found on the SafetyCompliance Certification Label or275F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Wheels and TiresTire Label (affixed to either thedoor hinge pillar, door-latch post,or the door edge that meets thedoor-latch post, next to thedriver's seating position), or TireLabel located on the B-pillar orthe edge of the driver's door.Failure to follow the tire pressurerecommendations can causeuneven treadwear patterns andadversely affect the way yourvehicle handlesNote: Do not reduce tire pressureto change the ride characteristicsof the vehicle. If you do notmaintain the inflation pressure atthe levels specified by Ford, yourvehicle may experience a conditionknown as shimmy. Shimmy is asevere vibration and oscillation inthe steering wheel after the vehicletravels over a bump or dip in theroad that does not dampen out byitself. Shimmy may result fromsignificant under-inflation of thetires, improper tires (load range,size, or type), or vehiclemodifications such as lift-kits. Inthe event that your vehicleexperiences shimmy, you shouldslowly reduce speed by either liftingoff the accelerator pedal or lightlyapplying the brakes. The shimmywill cease as the vehicle speeddecreases.Maximum Inflation Pressure isthe tire manufacturer's maximumpermissible pressure and thepressure at which the maximumload can be carried by the tire. Thispressure is normally higher thanthe manufacturer’s recommendedcold inflation pressure which canbe found on the SafetyCompliance Certification Label(affixed to either the door hingepillar, door-latch post, or the dooredge that meets the door-latchpost, next to the driver's seatingposition), or Tire Label located onthe B-pillar or the edge of thedriver's door. The cold inflationpressure should never be set lowerthan the recommended pressureon the Safety ComplianceCertification Label or Tire Label.When weather temperaturechanges occur, tire inflationpressures also change. A 10°F(6°C) temperature drop cancause a corresponding drop of 1psi (7 kPa) in inflation pressure.Check your tire pressuresfrequently and adjust them to theproper pressure which can befound on the Safety ComplianceCertification Label or Tire Label.To check the pressure in yourtire(s):1. Make sure the tires are cool,meaning they are not hot fromdriving even a mile.276F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Wheels and TiresNote: If you are checking tirepressure when the tire is hot, (forexample, driven more than 1 mile[1.6 kilometers]), never bleed orreduce air pressure. The tires arehot from driving and it is normal forpressures to increase aboverecommended cold pressures. Ahot tire at or below recommendedcold inflation pressure could besignificantly under-inflated.Note: If you have to drive adistance to get air for your tire(s),check and record the tire pressurefirst and add the appropriate airpressure when you get to thepump. It is normal for tires to heatup and the air pressure inside to goup as you drive.2. Remove the cap from the valveon one tire, then firmly press thetire gauge onto the valve andmeasure the pressure.3. Add enough air to reach therecommended air pressure.Note: If you overfill the tire, releaseair by pressing on the metal stemin the center of the valve. Thenrecheck the pressure with your tiregauge.4. Replace the valve cap.5. Repeat this procedure for eachtire, including the spare.Note: Some spare tires operate ata higher inflation pressure than theother tires. For T type mini-sparetires, (see the Dissimilar sparewheel and tire assemblyinformation for a description. Storeand maintain at 60 psi (4.15 bar).For full-size and dissimilar sparetires, see the Dissimilar spare wheeland tire assembly information fora description. Store and maintainat the higher of the front and rearinflation pressure as shown on theSafety Compliance CertificationLabel or Tire Label.6. Visually inspect the tires tomake sure there are no nails orother objects embedded thatcould poke a hole in the tire andcause an air leak.7. Check the sidewalls to makesure there are no gouges, cuts orbulges.Inspecting Your Tires andWheel Valve StemsPeriodically inspect the tire treadsfor uneven or excessive wear andremove objects such as stones,nails or glass that may be wedgedin the tread grooves. Check the tireand valve stems for holes, cracks,or cuts that may permit airleakage and repair or replace thetire and replace the valve stem.Inspect the tire sidewalls forcracking, cuts, bruises and othersigns of damage or excessivewear. If internal damage to the tireis suspected, have the tiredemounted and inspected in case277F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Wheels and Tiresit needs to be repaired or replaced.For your safety, tires that aredamaged or show signs ofexcessive wear should not be usedbecause they are more likely toblow out or fail.Improper or inadequate vehiclemaintenance can cause tires towear abnormally. Inspect all yourtires, including the spare,frequently, and replace them ifone or more of the followingconditions exist:Tire WearWhen the tire tread wears downto the same height as these wearbars, the tire is worn out and mustbe replaced.DamagePeriodically inspect the tire treadsand sidewalls for damage (suchas bulges in the tread or sidewalls,cracks in the tread groove andseparation in the tread orsidewall). If damage is observedor suspected have the tireinspected by a tire professional.Tires can be damaged duringoff-road use, so inspection afteroff-road use is alsorecommended.E142546When the tread is worn down toone sixteenth of an inch (2millimeters), tires must bereplaced to help prevent yourvehicle from skidding andhydroplaning. Built-in treadwearindicators, or wear bars, whichlook like narrow strips of smoothrubber across the tread willappear on the tire when the treadis worn down to one sixteenth ofan inch (2 millimeters).278F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Wheels and TiresAgeWARNINGTires degrade over timedepending on many factorssuch as weather, storageconditions, and conditions of use(load, speed, inflation pressure)the tires experience throughouttheir lives.In general, tires should bereplaced after six years regardlessof tread wear. However, heatcaused by hot climates orfrequent high loading conditionscan accelerate the aging processand may require tires to bereplaced more frequently.You should replace your spare tirewhen you replace the road tires orafter six years due to aging even ifit has not been used.U.S. DOT Tire IdentificationNumberBoth United States and CanadaFederal regulations require tiremanufacturers to placestandardized information on thesidewall of all tires.

If youhave questions regarding tirereplacement, contact yourauthorized dealer as soon aspossible.To reduce the risk of seriousinjury, when mountingreplacement tires and wheels, youshould not exceed the maximumpressure indicated on the sidewallof the tire to set the beads withoutadditional precautions listedbelow. If the beads do not seat atthe maximum pressure indicated,re-lubricate and try againWhen inflating the tire formounting pressures up to 20 psi(1.38 bar) greater than themaximum pressure on the tiresidewall, the followingprecautions must be taken toprotect the person mounting thetire:1. Make sure that you have thecorrect tire and wheel size.2. Lubricate the tire bead andwheel bead seat area again.WARNINGS3. Stand at a minimum of 12 feet(3.6 meters) away from the wheeland tire assembly.4. Use both eye and earprotection.For a mounting pressure morethan 20 psi (1.38 bar) greater thanthe maximum pressure, a Forddealer or other tire serviceprofessional should do themounting.Always inflate steel carcass tireswith a remote air fill with theperson inflating standing at aminimum of 12 feet (3.6 meters)away from the wheel and tireassemblyImportant: Remember to replacethe wheel valve stems when theroad tires are replaced on yourvehicleThe two front tires or two rear tiresshould generally be replaced as apair.The tire pressure sensors mountedin the wheels are not designed tobe used in aftermarket wheels.The use of wheels or tires notrecommended by Ford MotorCompany may affect theoperation of your tire pressuremonitoring system.280F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Wheels and TiresIf the tire pressure monitoringsystem indicator is flashing, thesystem is malfunctioning. Yourreplacement tire might beincompatible with your tirepressure monitoring system, orsome component of the systemmay be damaged.Safety PracticesWARNINGSIf your vehicle is stuck insnow, mud, or sand, do notrapidly spin the tires; spinning thetires can tear the tire and causean explosion. A tire can explode inas little as three to five seconds.Do not spin the wheels atover 35 mph (56 km/h). Thetires may fail and injure apassenger or bystander.Driving habits have a great dealto do with your tire mileage andsafety.*Observe posted speed limits*Avoid fast starts, stops and turns*Avoid potholes and objects onthe road*Do not run over curbs or hit thetire against a curb when parkingHighway HazardsNo matter how carefully you drivethere’s always the possibility thatyou may eventually have a flat tireon the highway. Drive slowly to theclosest safe area out of traffic.This may further damage the flattire, but your safety is moreimportant.If you feel a sudden vibration orride disturbance while driving, oryou suspect your tire or vehiclehas been damaged, immediatelyreduce your speed. Drive withcaution until you can safely pulloff the road. Stop and inspect thetires for damage. If a tire isunder-inflated or damaged,deflate it, remove wheel andreplace it with your spare tire andwheel. If you cannot detect acause, have the vehicle towed tothe nearest repair facility or tiredealer to have the vehicleinspected.Tire and Wheel AlignmentA bad jolt from hitting a curb orpothole can cause the front endof your vehicle to becomemisaligned or cause damage toyour tires. If your vehicle seems topull to one side when you’redriving, the wheels may be out ofalignment. Have an authorizeddealer check the wheel alignmentperiodically.281F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Wheels and TiresWheel misalignment in the frontor the rear can cause uneven andrapid treadwear of your tires andshould be corrected by anauthorized dealer. Front-wheeldrive vehicles and those with anindependent rear suspension mayrequire alignment of all fourwheels.The tires should also be balancedperiodically. An unbalanced tireand wheel assembly may result inirregular tire wear.Tire RotationWARNINGIf the tire label showsdifferent tire pressures for thefront and rear tires and the vehicleis equipped with a tire pressuremonitoring system, then thesettings for the system sensorsneed to be updated. Alwaysperform the system resetprocedure after tire rotation. If thesystem is not reset, it may notprovide a low tire pressurewarning when necessary. See thetire pressure monitoring systemreset procedure in this chapter.Note: If your tires show unevenwear ask an authorized dealer tocheck for and correct any wheelmisalignment, tire imbalance ormechanical problem involvedbefore tire rotation.Note: Your vehicle may beequipped with a dissimilar sparewheel and tire assembly. Adissimilar spare wheel and tireassembly is defined as a sparewheel and tire assembly that isdifferent in brand, size orappearance from the road tires andwheels. If you have a dissimilarspare wheel and tire assembly it isintended for temporary use onlyand should not be used in a tirerotation.Note: After having your tiresrotated, inflation pressure must bechecked and adjusted to thevehicle requirements.Rotating your tires at therecommended interval (asindicated in the ScheduledMaintenance chapter) will helpyour tires wear more evenly,providing better tire performanceand longer tire life.Rear-wheel drive vehicles andfour-wheel drive vehicles (fronttires at left of diagram)E142548Sometimes irregular tire wear canbe corrected by rotating the tires.282F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Wheels and TiresUSING SNOW CHAINSWARNINGSnow tires must be the same size,load index, speed rating as thoseoriginally provided by Ford. Use ofany tire or wheel not recommended byFord can affect the safety andperformance of your vehicle, which couldresult in an increased risk of loss of vehiclecontrol, vehicle rollover, personal injury anddeath. Additionally, the use ofnon-recommended tires and wheels couldcause steering, suspension, axle, transfercase or power transfer unit failure.Note: The suspension insulation andbumpers will help prevent vehicle damage.Do not remove these components from yourvehicle when using snow tires and chains.Note: Do not place chains on the followingtires sizes: P265/60R18, P275/65R18,LT275/65R18, LT315/70R17, P275/55R20,and P275/45R22.The tires on your vehicle have all-weathertreads to provide traction in rain and snow.However, in some climates, you may needto use snow tires and cables. If you needto use cables, it is recommended that steelwheels (of the same size andspecifications) be used, as cables may chipaluminum wheels.Follow these guidelines when using snowtires and chains:• If possible, avoid fully loading yourvehicle• Use only SAE Class S chains.• Install chains securely, verifying thatthe chains do not touch any wiring,brake lines or fuel lines.• Drive cautiously. If you hear the chainsrub or bang against your vehicle, stopand retighten the chains. If this doesnot work, remove the chains to preventdamage to your vehicle.• Remove the tire chains when they areno longer needed. Do not use tirechains on dry roads.If you have any questions regarding snowchains or cables, please contact yourauthorized dealer.TIRE PRESSURE MONITORINGSYSTEMWARNINGThe tire pressure monitoring systemis not a substitute for manuallychecking tire pressure. The tirepressure should be checked periodically(at least monthly) using a tire gauge, seeInflating your tires in this chapter. Failureto properly maintain your tire pressurecould increase the risk of tire failure, lossof control, vehicle rollover and personalinjury.Each tire, including the spare (ifprovided), should be checkedmonthly when cold and inflatedto the inflation pressurerecommended by the vehicle manufactureron the vehicle placard or tire inflationpressure label. (If your vehicle has tires ofa different size than the size indicated onthe vehicle placard or tire inflation pressurelabel, you should determine the proper tireinflation pressure for those tires.)As an added safety feature, your vehiclehas been equipped with a Tire PressureMonitoring System (TPMS) thatilluminates a low tire pressure telltalewhen one or more of your tires issignificantly under-inflated. Accordingly,283F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Wheels and Tireswhen the low tire pressure telltaleilluminates, you should stop and checkyour tires as soon as possible, and inflatethem to the proper pressure. Driving on asignificantly under-inflated tire causes thetire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiencyand tire tread life, and may affect thevehicle’s handling and stopping ability.Please note that the TPMS is not asubstitute for proper tire maintenance, andit is the driver’s responsibility to maintaincorrect tire pressure, even if under-inflationhas not reached the level to triggerillumination of the TPMS low tire pressuretelltale.Your vehicle has also been equipped witha TPMS malfunction indicator to indicatewhen the system is not operating properly.The TPMS malfunction indicator iscombined with the low tire pressuretelltale. When the system detects amalfunction, the telltale will flash forapproximately one minute and then remaincontinuously illuminated. This sequencewill continue upon subsequent vehiclestart-ups as long as the malfunction exists.When the malfunction indicator isilluminated, the system may not be ableto detect or signal low tire pressure asintended. TPMS malfunctions may occurfor a variety of reasons, including theinstallation of replacement or alternatetires or wheels on the vehicle that preventthe TPMS from functioning properly.Always check the TPMS malfunctiontelltale after replacing one or more tires orwheels on your vehicle to ensure that thereplacement or alternate tires and wheelsallow the TPMS to continue to functionproperly.The tire pressure monitoring systemcomplies with part 15 of the FCC rules andwith RSS-210 of Industry Canada.Operation is subject to the following twoconditions: (1) This device may not causeharmful interference, and (2) This devicemust accept any interference received,including interference that may causeundesired operation.Changing Tires With a TirePressure Monitoring SystemE142549Note: Each road tire is equipped with a tirepressure sensor located inside the wheeland tire assembly cavity. The pressuresensor is attached to the valve stem. Thepressure sensor is covered by the tire and isnot visible unless the tire is removed. Takecare when changing the tire to avoiddamaging the sensorYou should always have your tires servicedby an authorized dealer.Check the tire pressure periodically (atleast monthly) using an accurate tiregauge. See Inflating Your Tires in thischapter.284F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Wheels and TiresUnderstanding Your Tire PressureMonitoring SystemThe tire pressure monitoring systemmeasures pressure in your four road tiresand sends the tire pressure readings toyour vehicle. The low tire pressure warninglight will turn on if the tire pressure issignificantly low. Once the light isilluminated, your tires are under-inflatedand need to be inflated to themanufacturer’s recommended tirepressure. Even if the light turns on and ashort time later turns off, your tire pressurestill needs to be checked.When Your Temporary Spare Tire isInstalledWhen one of your road tires needs to bereplaced with the temporary spare, thesystem will continue to identify an issue toremind you that the damaged road wheeland tire assembly needs to be repaired andput back on your vehicle.To restore the full function of the tirepressure monitoring system, have thedamaged road wheel and tire assemblyrepaired and remounted on your vehicle.When You Believe Your System is NotOperating ProperlyThe main function of the tire pressuremonitoring system is to warn you whenyour tires need air. It can also warn you inthe event the system is no longer capableof functioning as intended. See thefollowing chart for information concerningyour tire pressure monitoring system:285F150 (TF6) , enUSA

Wheels and TiresWhen Inflating Your TiresWhen putting air into your tires (such as ata gas station or in your garage), the tirepressure monitoring system may notrespond immediately to the air added toyour tires.It may take up to two minutes of drivingover 20 mph (32 km/h) for the light to turnoff after you have filled your tires to therecommended inflation pressureHow Temperature Affects Your TirePressureThe tire pressure monitoring systemmonitors tire pressure in each pneumatictire. While driving in a normal manner, atypical passenger tire inflation pressuremay increase about 2 to 4 psi (14 to 28kPa) from a cold start situation. If thevehicle is stationary overnight with theoutside temperature significantly lowerthan the daytime temperature, the tirepressure may decrease about 3 psi (21kPa) for a drop of 30°F (17°C) in ambienttemperature. This lower pressure valuemay be detected by the tire pressuremonitoring system as being significantlylower than the recommended inflationpressure and activate the system warninglight for low tire pressure.If the low tire pressure warning light is on,visually check each tire to verify that no tireis flat. If one or more tires are flat, repair asnecessary. Check the air pressure in theroad tires. If any tire is under-inflated,carefully drive the vehicle to the nearestlocation where air can be added to thetires. Inflate all the tires to therecommended inflation pressure.Tire Pressure Monitoring System ResetProcedureWARNINGTo determine the requiredpressure(s) for your vehicle, see theSafety Compliance CertificationLabel (affixed to either the door hingepillar, door-latch post, or the door edgethat meets the door-latch post, next to thedriver's seating position), or Tire Labellocated on the B-Pillar or the edge of thedriver's door.Note: You need to perform the tire pressuremonitoring system reset procedure aftereach tire rotation on vehicles that requiredifferent recommended tire pressures in thefront tires as compared to the rear tires.OverviewTo provide the vehicle's load carryingcapability, some vehicles require differentrecommended tire pressures in the fronttires as compared to the rear tires. The tirepressure monitoring system equipped onthese vehicles is designed to illuminate thelow tire pressure warning light at twodifferent pressures; one for the front tiresand one for the rear tires.Since tires need to be rotated to provideconsistent performance and maximum tirelife, the tire pressure monitoring systemneeds to know when the tires are rotatedto determine which set of tires are on thefront and which are on the rear. With thisinformation, the system can detect andproperly warn of low tire pressures.System reset tips:287F150 (TF6) , enUSA

Capacities and Specifications1Ford recommends using Motorcraft (Ford) DOT 4 LV High Performance Motor VehicleBrake Fluid or equivalent meeting WSS-M6C65-A2. Use of any fluid other than therecommended fluid may cause degraded brake performance and not meet the Fordperformance standards. Keep brake fluid clean and dry. Contamination with dirt, water,petroleum products or other materials may result in brake system damage and possiblefailure.2The design of your engine allows for the use of Motorcraft engine oils or equivalent oilsthat meet Ford specifications. It is also acceptable to use an engine oil of recommendedviscosity grade that meets API SN requirements and displays the API certification markfor gasoline engines.3Do not use supplemental engine oil additives in your engine. They are unnecessary andcould lead to engine damage not covered by your Ford warranty.Do not use API S category oils labeled as SN, SM, SL or lower category unless the labelalso displays the API certification mark. These oils do not meet the requirements of theengine and emission system.4Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.5Service refill capacity is determined by filling the axle to 1/4-9/16 inch (6-14 millimeter)below the bottom of the filler hole with the vehicle on a level surface. Add 4 fl oz. (118milliliters) of Additive Friction Modifier XL-3 (US) / CXL-3 (Canada) or equivalent meetingFord specification EST-M2C118-A, for complete fill of 8.8-inch Traction-Lok axles.6Filled with a synthetic rear axle lubricant, consider the rear axle on your vehicle filled forlife. You do not need to check or change the rear axle lubricant unless you suspect a leak.Change the rear axle lubricant any time you have submerged the rear axle in water.7Service refill capacity is determined by filling the transfer case to the bottom of the fillerhole with the vehicle on a level surface.8Make sure the correct automatic transmission fluid is used. Transmission fluidrequirements are indicated on the dipstick blade or the dipstick handle. Before adding,check the container to verify the fluid is of the correct type. Refer to your scheduledmaintenance information to determine the correct service interval.Note: Automatic transmissions that require MERCON LV should only use MERCON LV fluid.Use of any fluid other than the recommended fluid may cause transmission damage.9Indicates only approximate dry-fill capacity. Some applications may vary based on coolersize and if equipped with an in-tank cooler. Use the indication on the dipstick, showingthe normal operating range, to determine the amount of transmission fluid and the fluidlevel.10See the Warning below:WARNINGThe air conditioning refrigerant system contains refrigerant R-134a under highpressure.

Audio SystemGENERAL INFORMATIONRadio Frequencies and ReceptionFactorsAM and FM frequencies are established bythe Federal Communications Commission(FCC) and the Canadian Radio andTelecommunications Commission (CRTC).Those frequencies are:• AM: 530, 540-1700, 1710 kHz• FM: 87.9-107.7, 107.9 MHzRadio Reception FactorsDistance and strengthTerrainStation overloadThe further you travel from an FM station, the weaker thesignal and the weaker the reception.Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges, tunnels, freewayoverpasses, parking garages, dense tree foliage andthunderstorms can interfere with the reception.When you pass a ground-based broadcast repeatingtower, a stronger signal may overtake a weaker one andresult in the audio system muting.CD and CD Player InformationNote: CD units play commercially pressed4.75-inch (12 centimeter) audio compactdiscs only. Due to technical incompatibility,certain recordable and re-recordablecompact discs may not function correctlywhen used in Ford CD players.Note: Do not insert CDs with homemadepaper (adhesive) labels into the CD playeras the label may peel and cause the CD tobecome jammed. You should use apermanent felt tip marker rather thanadhesive labels on your homemade CDs.Ballpoint pens may damage CDs. Pleasecontact an authorized dealer for furtherinformation.Note: Do not use any irregularly shapeddiscs or discs with a scratch protection filmattached.Always handle discs by their edges only.Clean the disc with an approved CDcleaner only. Wipe it from the center of thedisc toward the edge. Do not clean in acircular motion.Do not expose discs to direct sunlight orheat sources for extended periods.MP3 Track and Folder StructureAudio systems capable of recognizing andplaying MP3 individual tracks and folderstructures work as follows:• There are two different modes for MP3disc playback: MP3 track mode(system default) and MP3 foldermode.• MP3 track mode ignores any folderstructure on the MP3 disc. The playernumbers each MP3 track on the disc(noted by the .mp3 file extension) fromT001 to a maximum of T255. Themaximum number of playable MP3files may be less depending on thestructure of the CD and exact modelof radio present.306F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Audio System• MP3 folder mode represents a folderstructure consisting of one level offolders. The CD player numbers all MP3tracks on the disc (noted by the .mp3file extension) and all folderscontaining MP3 files, from F001(folder) T001 (track) to F253 T255.• Creating discs with only one level offolders helps with navigation throughthe disc files.If you are burning your own MP3 discs, it isimportant to understand how the systemreads the structures you create. Whilevarious files may be present, (files withextensions other than mp3), only files withthe .mp3 extension are played; other filesare ignored by the system. This enablesyou to use the same MP3 disc for a varietyof tasks on your work computer, homecomputer and your in-vehicle system.In track mode, the system displays andplays the structure as if it were only onelevel deep (all .mp3 files play, regardlessof being in a specific folder).

Yoursystem has a special receiver that allowsit to receive digital broadcasts (whereavailable) in addition to the analogbroadcasts, it already receives. Digitalbroadcasts provide a better sound qualitythan analog broadcasts with free,crystal-clear audio and no static ordistortion. For more information, and aguide to available stations andprogramming, please visitwww.hdradio.com.When HD Radio is on and you tune to astation broadcasting HD Radio technology,you may notice the HD Radio logo on yourscreen. When this logo is available, youmay also see Title and Artist fieldson-screen.The multicast indicator appears in FMmode (only) if the current station isbroadcasting multiple digital broadcasts.The highlighted numbers signify availabledigital channels where new or differentcontent is available. HD1 signifies the mainprogramming status and is available inanalog and digital broadcasts. Othermulticast stations (HD2 through HD7) areonly available digitally.When HD Radio broadcasts are active, youcan access the following functions:When HD Radio broadcasts are active, youcan access the following functions:• Scan allows you to hear a briefsampling of all available stations. Thisfeature still works when HD Radioreception is on, although it does notscan for HD2-HD7 channels.

There is a briefmute while the radio saves the station.Sound returns when finished. Whenswitching to an HD2 or HD3 memorypreset, the sound mutes before thedigital audio plays, because the systemhas to reacquire the digital signal.Note: As with any saved radio station, youcannot access the saved station if yourvehicle is outside the station’s receptionarea.316F150 (TF6) , enUSA


Audio SystemHD Radio Reception and Station TroubleshootingPotential reception issuesReception areaStation blendingIf you are listening to a multicast station and you are onthe fringe of the reception area, the station may mute dueto weak signal strength.If you are listening to HD1, the system switches back tothe analog broadcast until the digital broadcast is availableagain. However, if you are listening to any of the possibleHD2-HD7 multicast channels, the station mutes and staysmuted unless it is able to connect to the digital signalagain.When the system first receives a station (aside from HD2-HD7 multicast stations), it first plays the station in theanalog version. Once the receiver verifies the station is anHD Radio station, it shifts to the digital version. Dependingon the station quality, you may hear a slight sound changewhen the station changes from analog to digital. Blendingis the shift from analog to digital sound or digital back toanalog sound.In order to provide the best possibleexperience, use the contact form to reportany station issues found while listening toa station broadcasting with HD Radiotechnology. Independent entities own andoperate each station. These stations areresponsible for ensuring all audio streamsand data fields are accurate.317F150 (TF6) , enUSA
