2007 FORD SUPER DUTY light

Use extreme caution when accelerating or decelerating on
slippery or unstable surfaces. Vehicles/axles equipped with
traction differentials are inherently more sensitive to side-slip than
vehicles equipped with conventional differentials. Stability can be
retained if side-slip occurs by decelerating (letting off the accelerator).
Do not apply the brake. To do so may result in loss of vehicle control.
The vehicle's braking capacity is reduced when a turn is made while
coasting downhill because the inside wheel is then disconnected from the
driveline. Operating in low gear will allow the engine to act as a retarder
and will improve braking capacity.
Inspection and lubrication
When servicing any driveline components on a vehicle equipped
with a locking rear differential, ensure that the engine is off and
all wheels are off the ground to prevent the vehicle from moving. Axles
equipped with a locking rear differential deliver power to both wheels,
even when only one wheel is on the ground. Failure to observe these
cautionary measures may cause the vehicle to move which can result
in property damage, personal injury, even death.
This differential is designed to operate in the lubricant recommended by
the vehicle/axle manufacturer; no special lubricant is needed. Refer to
theLubricant Specificationsin yourOwner's Guidefor the proper axle
lubricant. For very cold weather applications, use the lightest oil the axle
manufacturer will allow to overcome possible sluggish reengagement of
the driven clutch assemblies.
No adjustments or alterations should be made to the differential. Refer to
the vehicle/axle manufacturer's instructions for adjustments to other
components in the axle.
SAND INGESTION
When driving through sand, traction or brake capability may be limited.
Also, sand may enter your engine's air intake and severely damage your
engine or your vehicle may stall. Driving through sand where the
transmission vent tube or external breather kit is submerged may allow
sand into the transmission and cause internal transmission damage.

The air coupling, to which the hose
is to be connected, is located just
above the floor behind the driver's
seat.
The compressor is controlled by an
instrument panel mounted switch
below the radio. The compressor
cannot be turned on unless the
vehicle ignition is in the ON position
Note:The air compressor uses significant electrical current when
operating. It is recommended that the engine be running when the
compressor is in use to avoid discharging the battery.
When the compressor is switched to the on position, a light in the switch
will be illuminated and the reservoir pressure will increase until it
reaches the pre-set limit. The light will remain on even when the pre-set
pressure limit is reached and the compressor turns off. With the switch
turned on, the compressor may start at any time the ignition switch is in
the ON position. You should turn the compressor switch off until you
plan on using compressed air to avoid possible injuries and minimize
wear on the compressor and system.
Note:When the system is pressurized, all air lines from the compressor
to the outlet chuck are pressurized as well. Do not attempt to work on
the system or loosen any fittings unless you have drained all pressure
from the system by opening the drain on the air reservoir.
Whenever the air compressor has been used, be sure to drain the air
system of all pressure by opening the drain valve at the front of the
reservoir until air no longer escapes.Do not leave the system
pressurized when the vehicle is not in use.This will help to assure
the safety of those who may need to work on the truck and prevent the
condensation of water in the reservoir, extending the life of air system
components.
The air compressor inlet is equipped with a filter to prevent the
ingestion of contamination into the compressor and air system. This filter

Note:If the vehicle does not slow down to below the programmed
speed limit, the tires will automatically inflate to the appropriate
higher terrain setting. Once the higher terrain setting has been
achieved, the OVERSPEED light will stop flashing and the buzzer will
stop.

TERRAIN
Allows the driver to select different
tire pressures and vehicle
parameters for unique driving
surfaces/conditions by adjusting tire
pressure. Selecting a terrain setting
will cause the system to run a
pressure check and adjust tire
pressure appropriately. Any terrain
may be selected at any time (within
speed limitations).
Note:When in ªHYº mode,
additional increments do not change tire pressures, but do cause a
pressure check.
Note:When in ªEº mode, additional decrements do not change tire
pressures, but do cause a pressure check.
