If you exceed the load limit, the rear air suspension may not operate.
The air suspension shut-off switch is
located on the left side of the trunk.
If this switch is in the off position,
the rear air suspension will not
operate.
WARNING:On vehicles
equipped with air
suspension, turn off the air
suspension switch prior to jacking,
hoisting or towing your vehicle.
Normal vehicle operation does not
require any action by the driver.
TRACTION-LOK™ AXLE (IF EQUIPPED)
This axle provides added traction on slippery surfaces, particularly when
one wheel is on a poor traction surface. Under normal conditions, the
Traction-Lok™ axle functions like a standard rear axle.
Extended use of other than the manufacturer’s specified size tires on a
Traction-Lok™ rear axle could result in a permanent reduction in
effectiveness. This loss of effectiveness does not affect normal driving
and should not be noticeable to the driver.
BRAKE-SHIFT INTERLOCK
This vehicle is equipped with a brake-shift interlock feature that prevents
the gearshift lever from being moved from P (Park) when the ignition is
in the on position unless brake pedal is pressed.
If you cannot move the gearshift lever out of P (Park) with ignition in
the on position and the brake pedal pressed, it is possible that a fuse has
blown or the vehicle’s brake lamps are not operating properly. Refer to
Fuses and relaysin theRoadside Emergencieschapter.

VEHICLE STORAGE
If you plan on storing your vehicle for an extended period of time
(30 days or more), refer to the following maintenance recommendations
to ensure your vehicle stays in good operating condition.
All motor vehicles and their components were engineered and tested for
reliable, regular driving. Long term storage under various conditions may
lead to component degradation or failure unless specific precautions are
taken to preserve the components.
General
•Store all vehicles in a dry, ventilated place.
•Protect from sunlight, if possible.
•If vehicles are stored outside, they require regular maintenance to
protect against rust and damage.
Body
•Wash vehicle thoroughly to remove dirt, grease, oil, tar or mud from
exterior surfaces, rear-wheel housing and underside of front fenders.
See theCleaningchapter for more information.
•Periodically wash vehicles stored in exposed locations.
•Touch-up raw or primed metal to prevent rust.
•Cover chrome and stainless steel parts with a thick coat of auto wax
to prevent discoloration. Re-wax as necessary when the vehicle is
washed. See theCleaningchapter for more information.
•Lubricate all hood, door and trunk lid hinges, and latches with a light
grade oil. See theCleaningchapter for more information.
•Cover interior trim to prevent fading.
•Keep all rubber parts free from oil and solvents.
Engine
•The engine oil and filter should be changed prior to storage, as used
engine oil contain contaminates that may cause engine damage.
•Start the engine every 15 days. Run at fast idle until it reaches normal
operating temperature.
•With your foot on the brake, shift through all the gears while the
engine is running.
Fuel system
•Fill the fuel tank with high-quality fuel until the first automatic shutoff
of the fuel pump nozzle.

The mating connector is provided on the end of the power distribution
connector. The vehicle modifier can either purchase pins for the mating
connector and install them on the wires before they are inserted into the
connector, thereby avoiding any splicing, or purchase an optional power
pigtail for the interface. The power pigtail (P/N 14A411) plugs into the
power distribution connector and provides blunt cut wires ready for
splicing by the vehicle modifier.
See thePolice Interceptor Modifier Guidefor more details.
Rear power point - police
The rear power point is a battery access port for police auxiliary
equipment mounted in the trunk. It is capable of supplying 80 amps of
battery power. The front power distribution box (PDB) contains two
50 amp fuses, which protect the power point. Battery access is via two
studs contained in an enclosure, mounted in the trunk, on the right side
fender support. The terminal with the red wires is the battery positive,
and the terminal with the black wire is the ground. Remove both fuses in
the front PDB before removing the cover to the rear power point. Ensure
load devices can be turned off, and are switched off when reinserting
fuses.
WARNING:Under no circumstance should the rear power point
cover be removed without first pulling the two fuses in the front
power distribution box. Removing cover without pulling fuses could
result in an electrical hazard, and result in personal injury. Shut off
load devices before inserting fuses.

Trunk Pack™ and trunk loading
WARNING:Ford recommends that police equipment be both
secured and laterally aligned. Hard, stiff or sharp objects,
especially when not secured or properly located, pose a risk to the fuel
tank and back seat occupants in the event of a high speed rear impact.
After-market organizers that do not adequately deform in rear-impacts
can themselves become injury-producing objects. When locating,
securing and mounting police equipment, please review theTrunk
Equipment Mounting Guide,available on the www.cvpi.com website,
which provides recommended fastener mounting types and locations.
WARNING:Following the trunk packing considerations, also on
the www.fleet.ford.com website, is the most meaningful method
of reducing risk. If your department practice is inconsistent with the
Trunk Packing Considerations, then Ford suggests that you consider
purchasing an optional drop-in Trunk Pack™ to further reduce the risk
of injury resulting from police equipment pushing forward into the
back seat and/or fuel tank in the event of a high-speed rear impact.
The Trunk Pack™ provides more flexibility to officers transporting
police equipment than the trunk packing considerations.
To improve trunk packing by police agencies, Ford has made the
following items available:
•Trunk Pack™ – a drop-in box with a tough plastic shell made of high
density Polyethylene (HDPE). It both aligns police equipment laterally
in the trunk and utilizes a puncture resistant lining on the forward
side of the box to reduce the risk of police equipment penetrating into
the fuel tank and/or back seat in high-speed rear impacts.
•Trunk Equipment Mounting Guide – an outline pattern with
recommended fastener mounting locations in the trunk. The guide can
be found in thePolice Interceptor Modifier Guideand on the
Internet at www.fleet.ford.com.
•Trunk packing considerations – the following guidelines are offered to
reduce the risk of unique police equipment items pushing through the
fuel tank and/or back seat (see our www.fleet.ford.com website for
more details).
Trunk packing considerations
A slogan has been developed to increase police agency awareness of the
importance of trunk packing.
