2010 FORD SUPER DUTY brake

STARTING THE ENGINE
Read all starting instructions carefully before you start your vehicle.
For temperatures below 32°F (0°C), the use of the correct grade engine
oil is essential for proper operation. Refer toEngine oil specifications
in theMaintenance and Specificationschapter for more information.
Your vehicle may be equipped with a cold weather starting strategy that
prevents severe engine damage by assisting in engine lubrication
warm-up. In extremely cold ambient temperatures, this strategy activates
and prevents the accelerator pedal from being used for 30 seconds after
starting the vehicle. By not allowing the accelerator pedal to be used, the
engine oil is allowed to properly lubricate the bearings preventing engine
damage due to lack of proper lubrication. After the 30 second warm-up
period, the accelerator pedal will be operational again as long as the
pedal is not being pressed when the 30 second time limit expires. When
starting the engine in extremely cold temperatures (-15°F [–26°C]), it is
recommended to allow the engine to idle for several minutes before
driving the vehicle.
If your vehicle is equipped with a manual transmission,make sure
the parking brake is fully set before you turn the key. Depress the clutch
pedal and place the gearshift in the neutral position. The clutch must be
fully depressed in order to operate the starter. Do not press the
accelerator during starting.
If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic transmission,ensure
the gearshift lever is in P (Park) and the parking brake is fully set before
you turn the key. Do not press the accelerator during starting.
Engine-driven cooling fan (fan clutch)
Your vehicle is equipped with an engine driven cooling fan drive (also
called a fan clutch). This fan drive changes the fan speed to match the
vehicle’s changing cooling air flow requirements. Fan speed, fan noise
level and fuel consumption all will increase based on the driving
conditions that include trailer towing, hill climbing, heavy loads, high
speed and high ambient temperature, individually or in combination. The
fan drive is designed to provide the minimum fan speed (and resulting
fan noise and fuel consumption) required to meet the ever changing
vehicle cooling air flow requirements. You will hear the amount of fan
noise increasing and decreasing as the engine power requirements and
vehicle driving conditions change as you drive. This is to be expected as
being normal to the operation of your vehicle. High levels of fan noise
might also be heard when your engine is first started, and should
normally decrease after driving for a short time.

ENGINE IDLE SHUTDOWN (IF EQUIPPED)
Your vehicle may be equipped with an engine idle shutdown system. This
system will automatically shut down your engine when it has been idling
in P (Park) or N (Neutral) for five minutes (parking brake set) or
15 minutes (parking brake not set). When the engine idle shutdown
process has started:
•A chime will sound and the message center will displayENGINE
TURNS OFF IN XX30 seconds prior to shutdown and begins
counting down to zero.
•The timer can be reset by changing the position of the accelerator
pedal, brake pedal or the park brake within the final 30 seconds.
•When the timer reaches zero, the engine shuts down and the message
center will displayENGINE TURNED OFF.
•One minute after the engine has shut down, the electrical system will
simulate key off, even though the ignition is still in the on position,
initiating normal accessory delay period.
•The ignition must be moved to the off position to reset the system
before restarting the vehicle.
Note:The engine idle shutdown idle timer will not start if:
•The engine is operating in power take-off (PTO) mode.
•The engine coolant temperature is below 60°F (16°C).
•The exhaust emission control device (DPF) is regenerating.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition to the OFF position.
On E-Series vehicles,to prolong engine life (after extended high speed
or maximum GVW operation), it is recommended that a hot engine be
idled for 7–10 minutes which will allow the turbocharged engine to cool
down.
On F-Super Duty vehicles,to prolong engine life (especially after
extended high speed, high ambient temperature, or high GVW/GCW
operation), it is recommended that a hot engine be idled for 3-5 minutes
which will allow the turbocharged engine to cool down.

Idle control:
For periods of extended idle, the throttle should be set at an rpm that is
sufficient to keep the engine at normal operating temperatures. This
action can reduce the amount of engine damaging deposits.
•The engine contains a unique “Cold Weather - Idle up feature”
calibration strategy within the PCM. Under the appropriate conditions,
the strategy will automatically elevate the engine idle speed after
130 seconds of idling in cold ambient temperatures. For this feature to
be activated, the truck must be in P (Park) (for automatic
transmission), in neutral (for manual transmission) with the parking
brake applied and engine oil temperature below 158°F (70°C). This
strategy raises the rpm to a level that reduces the potential to
produce “coking” or “wet stacking”, which is common to all diesel
engines when idling for extended periods during cold ambient
temperatures.
•Your vehicle may have a factory option for a Stationary Elevated Idle
Control (SEIC) through dash-mounted Upfitter switches will allow the
operator to elevate the idle rpm for extended idle periods, as well as
aftermarket equipment such as PTO operation. This feature must be
configured even if ordered from the factory. See your authorized
dealer for required upfitting.
Operation in snow
Vehicle operation in heavy snowfall or extreme rain conditions may feed
excessive amounts of snow/water into the air intake system. This could
plug/soak the air filter with snow and may cause the engine to lose
power and possibly shut down.
You may not need to change the air filter and the vehicle may be driven
up to 200 miles (320 km) under the following conditions:
•Snow:At the earliest opportunity, open the hood and clear all the
snow and ice from the air filter housing inlet (do NOT remove the air
filter) and reset the air filter restriction gauge.
•Wet:The air filter will dry after about 15–30 minutes at highway
speeds. At the earliest opportunity, open the hood and reset the air
filter restriction gauge.
Refer toAir filter and restriction gaugein theMaintenance and
Specificationschapter of this supplement for more information.

JUMP STARTING YOUR VEHICLE (E-SERIES ONLY)
The following procedure is for E-Series vehicles only. F-Super
Duty vehicles equipped with the 6.4L diesel engine can be jump
started using the same procedure as a gasoline engine; refer to
yourOwner’s Guidefor the jump starting procedure.
WARNING:The gases around the battery can explode if
exposed to flames, sparks, or lit cigarettes. An explosion could
result in injury or vehicle damage.
WARNING:Batteries contain sulfuric acid which can burn skin,
eyes and clothing, if contacted.
Do not attempt to push-start your vehicle. Automatic
transmissions do not have push-start capability; damage to the
automatic transmission may result.
Preparing your vehicle
When the batteries are disconnected or new batteries are installed, the
transmission must relearn its shift strategy. As a result, the transmission
may have firm and/or soft shifts. This operation is considered normal and
will not affect function or durability of the transmission. Over time, the
adaptive learning process will fully update transmission operation.
1.Use only a 12–volt supply to start your vehicle.
2. Do not disconnect the batteries of the disabled vehicle as this could
damage the vehicle’s electrical system.
3. Park the booster vehicle close to the passenger side of the disabled
vehicle making sure the two vehiclesdo nottouch. Set the parking
brake on both vehicles.
Note:This vehicle has two frame-mounted batteries located on the
passenger side frame rail, behind the front passenger door. A battery
positive (+) jumper stud is located on the frame rail behind the rear
most battery box.

4. Make the final connection of the negative (-) cable to an exposed
metal part of the disabled vehicle’s frame or chassis, away from the
batteries.Do notuse fuel lines, brake lines, exhaust components or the
battery trays asgroundingpoints.
WARNING:Do not connect the end of the second cable to the
negative (-) terminal of the battery to be jumped. A spark may
cause an explosion of the gases that surround the battery.
5. Ensure that the cables are clear of moving parts or any fuel delivery
system, brake system or exhaust system parts.
Jump starting
1. Start the engine of the booster vehicle and run the engine at
moderately increased speed.
2. Start the engine of the disabled vehicle.
3. Once the disabled vehicle has been started, run both engines for an
additional three minutes before disconnecting the jumper cables.
