CALIFORNIA Proposition 65 Warning
WARNING:Engine exhaust, some of its constituents, and
certain vehicle components contain or emit chemicals known to
the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm. In addition, certain fluids contained in vehicles and
certain products of component wear contain or emit chemicals known
to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
POWER STROKE DIESEL ENGINE
Your new diesel engine will feel, drive and function somewhat differently
than a gasoline engine. Therefore it is very important that you read and
thoroughly familiarize yourself and others operating the vehicle with this
guide.A special procedure for turning off the diesel engine is in
theDrivingchapter. It is important to read and understand this
material in order to maintain the best service life for your
engine.
This guide will acquaint you with the Power Stroke diesel engine. It
provides recommendations on engine care and operating procedures. For
complete vehicle information, also refer to theOwner’s Guideincluded
with the vehicle. It also describes equipment and gives specifications for
equipment that was in effect when this guide was approved for printing,
and should be considered a permanent part of the vehicle.
Some aftermarket products may cause severe engine/transmission
and/or exhaust system damage;refer to thewarranty informationin
theCustomer Information Guidefor more information.Your vehicle’s
Powertrain Control Systems can detect and store information
about vehicle modifications that increase horsepower and torque
output such as whether or not performance-enhancing powertrain
components commonly referred to as “performance chips” have
been used. This information cannot be erased and will stay in the
system’s memory even if the modification is removed. The
Information can be retrieved by Ford Motor Company, Ford of
Canada, and service and repair facilities when servicing your
vehicle. This information may be used to determine if repairs will
be covered by warranty.
Ford may discontinue models or change specifications without any notice
and without incurring obligations.

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
The scheduled maintenance services in thescheduled maintenance
informationof this supplement are required because they are
considered essential to the life and performance of your vehicle.
Use only recommended fuel, lubricants, fluids and service parts
conforming to Ford specifications. Motorcraft parts are designed and
built for best performance in your vehicle.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS - CHOOSING THE RIGHT FUEL: VEHICLES
OPERATED WHERE ULTRA LOW SULFUR DIESEL FUEL IS
REQUIRED
(UNITED STATES/CANADA/PUERTO RICO/U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS
AND OTHER LOCALES)
Use only Ultra Low Sulfur (15 ppm Sulfur Maximum) number 1-D
or 2-D diesel fuel (also known as ULSD) in your 6.4L diesel
engine.The engine and exhaust system were designed to only use this
fuel. Look for theULTRA-LOW SULFUR HIGHWAY DIESEL FUEL
(15 ppm Sulfur Maximum)label on fuel pumps when purchasing your
fuel.
Using low sulfur diesel fuel (16-500 ppm) or high sulfur diesel
fuel (greater than 500 ppm) in a 6.4L diesel engine designed to
use only Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel fuel will cause certain emission
components to malfunction which may also cause the Service
Engine Soon(
)light to illuminate indicating an
emissions-related concern.

other coolant may result in vehicle damage.4Ensure the correct automatic transmission fluid is used. Transmission fluid requirements are
indicated on the dipstick blade or the dipstick handle. Check the container to verify the fluid being
added is of the correct type. Refer to your scheduled maintenance information to determine the
correct service interval.5Indicates only approximate dry-fill capacity. Some applications may vary based on cooler size and
if equipped with an in-tank cooler. The amount of transmission fluid and fluid level should be set
by the indication on the dipstick’s normal operating range.

Multi-point Inspection
In order to keep your vehicle running right, it is important that you have
the systems on your vehicle checked regularly. This can help identify any
potential issue before there are any problems. Ford Motor Company
suggests the following multi-point inspection to be performed at every
scheduled maintenance interval as the way to ensure your vehicle keeps
running right.
Retightening lug nuts
❑On vehicles equipped with single rear wheels, retighten the lug nuts to the specified torque at 500 miles (800 km) after
any wheel disturbance (tire rotation, changing a flat tire, wheel removal, etc.).
❑On vehicles equipped with dual rear wheels, retighten the wheel lug nuts to the specified torque at 100 miles (160 km),
and again at 500 miles (800 km) of new vehicle operation and after any wheel disturbance (tire rotation, changing a flat
tire, wheel removal, etc.).
❑Refer toWheel Lug Nut Torque Specificationin yourOwner’s Guidefor the proper lug nut torque specification.
Multi-point inspection - recommended at every visit
❑Check and top up fluid levels:❑brake❑coolant recovery reservoir❑fuel coolant recovery reservoir (F-Super Duty)❑manual and automatic transmission❑power steering❑window washer❑Inspect tires for wear and check air pressure, including spare.
❑Check exhaust system for leaks, damage, loose parts and foreign materials.
❑Check that holes in the tail-pipe of the exhaust system are clear of debris; the holes/slots are functional (F-Super Duty)
❑Check battery performance.
❑Check operation of horn, exterior lamps, turn signals and hazard warning lights.
❑Check radiator, coolers and heater and air conditioning hoses.
❑Inspect windshield washer spray and wiper operation.
❑Check windshield for cracks, chips and pitting.
❑Inspect for oil and fluid leaks.
❑Inspect air filter.
❑Check shocks and struts and other suspension components for leaks and damage.
