•If the horn does not sound while attempting to reset any wheel, seek
service from your authorized dealer.
10. Perform Steps 8 and 9 on the right front tire, right rear tire and
finally the left rear tire. Training is complete after the horn sounds for
the last tire trained (left rear tire).
Turn the ignition to off. If two short horn beeps are heard, the reset
procedure was unsuccessful and must be repeated.
If after repeating the procedure and two short beeps are heard when the
ignition is turned to off, seek assistance from your authorized dealer.
Brakes - police
The police vehicle is equipped with heavy duty front disc brake pads to
meet the varying demands of different police service for fade resistance
and other performance requirements.
The police vehicle has standard anti-lock brakes and may be equipped
with traction control.
Brake fluid maintenance
Police pursuits involving hard braking result in very high temperatures in
the brake system, including the brake fluid. Over time, repeated
exposure to high brake temperatures can degrade brake fluid, potentially
reducing its boiling point. A lower boiling point could cause long brake
pedal travel and a loss of braking confidence during subsequent pursuit
driving. Ford recommends that police fleets replace the brake fluid at
every brake pad service interval. Brake fluid may be replaced more
frequently on vehicles involved in frequent high-speed pursuits with
heavy brake usage.
INTERIOR
Heavy duty seats - police
The front seat assemblies, including the seat adjustment mechanisms and
supports, are ruggedly designed and ensure working comfort. An
anti-stab plate is integrated into the seat back to reduce the risk of
officer injury. An adjustable power lumbar system is standard on the
driver’s seat.
Seat belt extenders
Some police departments have begun employing the use of seat belt
extenders to make the practice of buckling and unbuckling seat belts
easier for officers wearing hip mounted radios, side arms, etc.

Seat belt extenders should never be worn when the lap strap will not
adjust snugly on the hips and/or when the intersection of the lap belt
and shoulder belt straps (measured along the lap strap) is less than six
(6) inches (15 cm) from an imaginary center line of the occupant’s body.
WARNING:Do not use extensions to change the fit of the
shoulder belt across the torso.
Calibrated speedometer - police
Deviations from true road speeds are minimized by a calibrated
speedometer head which gives both miles-per-hour (0–140 mph) and
kilometer-per-hour (0–222 km/h) readings. The speedometer head
assembly accuracy is2 mph (3 km/h) over the entire range (at 70°F
[21°C]). The “certified calibration” applies to the head assembly only and
does not apply to the indicated speed of the system, which is affected by
variations in vehicle loading, tire inflation pressures, tire rolling radii and
driveline ratios.
Red/White map light - police (if equipped)
The police vehicle may be equipped with a red/white map light located in
the headliner between the driver and front seat passenger. A
three-position switch provides either white or night-vision red options.
When the rocker switch is in the center position, the lamp is off.
Pressing the left side (white dot) makes the lamp operate in the white
light mode. Pressing the right side (red dot) makes the lamp operate in
the night-vision red mode.
Mobile communication systems
The Federal Communications Commission regulates the use of mobile
communication systems (such as two-way radios, telephones and theft
alarms) that are equipped with radio transmitters. If you install this
equipment in your vehicle, you should comply with those rules and a
qualified technician should install the equipment. Ford Motor Company
vehicles are in compliance with FCC regulations (CFR 47 Part 15) and
SAE J551d for radiated electromagnetic emissions.
Mobile communication systems may harm the operation of your vehicle,
particularly if they are not properly designed for automotive use or not
properly installed. For example, when operated, such systems may cause
the engine to stumble or stall and may affect 4R70W transmission
operation. In addition, such systems may themselves be damaged or their
operation affected by operating your vehicle. (Citizen band [CB]

For maximum vehicle performance, keep the following information in
mind when adding accessories or equipment to your vehicle:
•When adding accessories, equipment, passengers and luggage to your
vehicle, do not exceed the total weight capacity of the vehicle or of
the front or rear axle (GVWR or GAWR as indicated on the Safety
Compliance Certification label). Consult your authorized dealer for
specific weight information.
•The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Canadian Radio
Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) regulate the use of mobile
communications systems — such as two-way radios, telephones and
theft alarms - that are equipped with radio transmitters. Any such
equipment installed in your vehicle should comply with FCC or CRTC
regulations and should be installed only by a qualified service
technician.
•Mobile communications systems may harm the operation of your
vehicle, particularly if they are not properly designed for automotive
use.
•To avoid interference with other vehicle functions, such as anti-lock
braking systems, amateur radio users who install radios and antennas
onto their vehicle should not locate the Amateur Radio Antennas in
the area of the driver’s side hood.
•Electrical or electronic accessories or components that are added to
the vehicle by the authorized dealer or the owner, may adversely
affect battery performance and durability, and may also adversely
affect the performance of other electrical systems in the vehicle.
