2001 FORD F650 instrument panel

The push button shifter has a R
(Reverse), N (Neutral) and D
(Drive) selections as well as a
MODE button, up arrow (for
upshifts) and a down arrow
(downshift) and a digital display.
When a range button is pressed, a
tone will sound, the SELECT
indicator displays a chosen
operation (if the Electronic Control
Unit determines the shift is
acceptable) and the transmission
will shift to the starting range. In D
(Drive), selection of a specific gear
can be accomplished by pressing the
up or down arrow button. If the
CHECK TRANS light (located on the instrument panel) is illuminated,
the shifter control pad may be disabled, tones will not be heard, shifts
may not occur and directional shift changes will not be able to be
performed.
The MODE button may be used to
activate a second shift schedule
(this is typically programmed for
Economywhich will enable the
transmission to shift at a lower RPM
to conserve fuel).
These transmissions incorporate a hold feature to prohibit upshifting
above the gear selected during normal driving. During downhill
operation, the transmission may upshift from the selected gear if the
Electronic Control Unit detects the possibility of engine damage from
exceeding the governed engine speed.

the windshield or rear window with a non-abrasive cleaner such as Ford
Ultra-Clear Spray Glass Cleaner, (E4AZ-19C507±AA), available from your
Ford Dealer.Do notuse abrasive cleansers on glass as they may cause
scratches. The windshield or rear window is clean if beads do not form
when you rinse it with water. The windshield, rear window and wiper
blades should be cleaned on a regular basis, and blades or rubber
elements replaced when worn.
Cleaning the instrument panel
Clean with a damp cloth, then dry with a dry cloth.
Avoid cleaner or polish that increases the gloss of the upper portion of
the instrument panel. The dull finish in this area helps protect the driver
from undesirable windshield reflection.
Cleaning the instrument cluster lens
Clean with a damp cloth, then dry with a dry cloth.
Do not use household or glass cleaners as these may damage the lens.
Cleaning the interior fabric
Remove dust and loose dirt with a whisk broom or a vacuum cleaner.
Remove fresh spots immediately. Do not use household or glass cleaners.
These agents can stain and discolor the fabric. Use a mild soap and
water solution if necessary.
Cleaning and maintaining the safety belts
Clean the safety belts with a mild soap solution recommended for
cleaning upholstery or carpets. Do not bleach or dye the belts, because
these actions may weaken the belt webbing.
Check the safety belt system periodically to make sure there are no
nicks, wear or cuts. If your vehicle has been involved in an accident,
refer to theSafety belt maintenancesection in theSeating and safety
restraintschapter.
