2007 FORD F750 air condition

FACTORY AUTHORIZED SYSTEMS CHECKS
In the event that your vehicle experiences a component related concern,
please contact your Ford dealership. The Ford Motor Company Trained
Technicians who work at Ford dealerships are specifically trained to
understand your vehicle.
A proper repair begins with a thorough system check. A Factory
Authorized Systems Check can ONLY be found at a Ford dealership. In
some circumstances, the technician may need to request your
authorization to perform additional operations to determine the final
diagnosis. The technician’s goal is to ensure that your vehicle is fixed
right the first time, at the best value to you.
The following list represents several of the Factory Authorized Systems
Checks available at a participating Ford dealers:
•Air Conditioning
•Check Engine Light
•All Wheel Drive and4X4
•Automatic Transmission
•Engine Cooling and Cabin Heating
•Steering and Suspension
•Charge/Start/Battery
•Wheel Alignment
•Anti-Lock Brake System
EMISSIONS CONTROL SYSTEM
To ensure the emissions control systems operate effectively, you should
have the services listed in the maintenance schedule performed at the
specified time and mileage/km intervals. You should avoid running out of
fuel or turning off the ignition while the vehicle is in motion, especially
at high speeds.
Because of high engine compartment and exhaust system
temperatures resulting from emissions equipment, do not park,
idle or operate your vehicle in dry grass or other dry ground cover
where the possibility of ground fire exists.
Do not make unauthorized modifications to the engine or vehicle.
Modifications causing increased amounts of unburned fuel to reach the
exhaust system can significantly increase the temperature of the engine
compartment and/or the exhaust system.

AIR BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
Failure to maintain proper air brake adjustment can result in
reduction or loss of braking ability.
Air brake inspection and adjustment or repairs should be performed by a
qualified service technician in accordance with the instructions in the
service manual.
Cam brakes - automatic slack adjusters
Inspect standard air brakes equipped with automatic slack adjusters for
proper brake adjustment every four months or 20,000 miles (32,000 km)
whichever occurs first.
However, more frequent inspection is required if your vehicle’s brakes
are subjected to heavy use or adverse operating conditions such as:
• Frequent brake applications while fully loaded.
• Operation on hilly or mountainous terrain.
• Frequent operation on dirt, gravel or mud.
Some aftermarket brake linings also require more frequent inspections.
Do not manually adjust the automatic slack adjusters to correct
excessive pushrod stroke as it may result in reduced brake
effectiveness and a vehicle crash. Excessive pushrod stroke indicates
that a problem exists with the automatic adjuster, with the installation
of the adjuster, or with foundation brake components that manual
adjustment will not remedy. Seek service from a qualified facility for
excessive pushrod stroke.
