4Approximate dry fill capacity including transmission fluid cooling
system, actual refill capacities will vary based on vehicle application and
transmission fluid cooling system (i.e. coolers size, cooling lines, auxiliary
cooler capacities). The amount of transmission fluid and fluid level
should be set by the indication on the dipstick’s normal operating range.
5Use of synthetic or synthetic blend motor oil is not mandatory. Engine
oil need only meet the requirements of Ford specification WSS-
M2C930-A and the API Certification mark.
OCTANE RECOMMENDATIONS
Your vehicle is designed to use
“Regular” unleaded gasoline with a
pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87.
In high altitude areas, we do not
recommend the use of any “Regular”
fuel with an octane rating below 87.
Do not be concerned if your engine sometimes knocks lightly. However, if
it knocks heavily under most driving conditions while you are using fuel
with the recommended octane rating, see your authorized dealer to
prevent any engine damage.

TIRE ROTATION
Because your vehicle’s tires perform
different jobs, they often wear
differently. To make sure your tires
wear evenly and last longer, have
them rotated.Note:The F-150
Raptor requires tire rotations every
5,000 miles (8,000 km). If you
notice that the tires wear unevenly,
have them checked.

SPARE TIRE AND WHEEL
Your vehicle is equipped with an LT315/70R17 spare tire. The spare
tire/wheel assembly has the same capability as the road tire/wheel
assembly, but is not equipped with a tire pressure monitoring sensor. If
TPMS functionality is desired, a TPMS sensor must be installed in the
spare tire/wheel assembly. Note that the spare wheel is painted black to
differentiate it from the road wheels.

IMPORTANT TIRE INFORMATION
Your SVT vehicle is equipped with unique wheels and tires designed to
enhance performance and appearance. To continue providing this
performance, extra care must be taken when operating and maintaining
your vehicle.
TIRES
Your SVT vehicle is equipped with high performance, all-terrain tires that
are designed to optimize handling, steering and braking to provide the
performance you expect in an SVT vehicle. These tires are optimized for
both on and off-road performance, and their ride, noise and wear
characteristics are different than other tires. Also, because of their
aggressive tread profile, it is important that you maintain your tires
properly.
•Always maintain your tire pressures according to the tire information
placard located on the driver’s door B-pillar, using an accurate gauge.
Note:If tire pressure has been reduced for off-road use, the tire
pressure monitoring system (TPMS) warning light will then activate in
the instrument panel as a reminder to reinflate the tires before
returning to the road.
Remember to be prepared to re-inflate your tires before returning to
the road. If a tire filling station is not available, remember to prepare a
supplemental means to inflate the tires, such as a portable
compressor.
WARNING:Always re-inflate tires to recommended tire
pressures before the vehicle is operated on-road. The
recommended pressure is located on the tire placard label or safety
certification label, located on the B-pillar, inside the driver’s door.
WARNING:Always check tires and wheels for damage before
returning to the road. Off-road use may cause damage to your
tires and wheels that could result in tire failure.
•Tire pressures are specified “cold” and should be checked after the
vehicle has been parked for at least three hours. Do not reduce
pressure of warm tires.
•Check your tire pressure often to maintain it properly. Tire pressure
can diminish over time and fluctuate with temperature.
•Do not overload your vehicle. Maximum vehicle and axle weights are
listed on the tire information placard.

•Extra caution should be taken when operating the vehicle near its
maximum load, including assuring proper tire pressure and reducing
speeds.
•In the event that you encounter an abnormally harsh impact, inspect
your tires for damage.
•Inspect your tires for damage on a regular basis. If a tire is damaged,
replace it immediately.
•Proper suspension alignment is critical for maximum performance and
optimal tire wear. If you notice uneven tire wear, have your alignment
checked.
•Your SVT vehicle follows a more stringent tire rotation schedule as
compared to the base F-150. Refer toTire rotationin the
Maintenancechapter for more information.
•When replacing tires, the only way to assure original performance is to
use the original equipment tire. If a different tire is used, it should be
the same size, speed rating and load rating.
WHEELS
Your SVT vehicle is equipped with unique wheels matched to the tires.
To avoid damage to your wheels:
•Maintain proper tire pressure (see “Tires” previously listed).
•Due to extreme tire/wheel width, this vehicle cannot be taken through
an automatic car wash that uses mechanical tracks, as wheel damage
may result.
•When installing wheels, always torque lug nuts to specification with a
torque wrench.
•Inspect your wheels for damage on a regular basis. If a wheel is
damaged, replace it immediately.
•In the event that you encounter an abnormally harsh impact, inspect
the outer diameter of your wheels, both inside and out, for damage.

OPERATING A PERFORMANCE VEHICLE AT HIGHER THAN
NORMAL SPEEDS
Your SVT vehicle is capable of operating at higher than normal off-road
speeds and is equipped with tires rated for the vehicles’ maximum speed.
However, it is important to remember to always drive safely, obey all
traffic laws and only operate your SVT vehicle at higher than normal
speeds at locations and under conditions where such can be done safely.
Also, before operating your vehicle at higher than normal speeds:
•Assure correct tire pressures (see “Tires” previously listed).
•Inspect wheels and tires for wear and damage. Replace any damaged
wheels or tires.
•Never operate the vehicle at higher than normal speeds when loaded
with passengers/cargo.
WINTER DRIVING
The original equipment tires on your SVT vehicle are designed for
maximum performance in all driving conditions. However, they are not
designed to be used with snow chains. If you will be operating your
vehicle with snow chains, use a smaller tire and wheel combination as
recommended in theOwner’s Guide.

WARRANTY COVERAGE
The F-150 Raptor carries the same New Vehicle Limited Warranty as
other Ford F-150 models. This information is covered in its entirety in
yourWarranty Guide.
Warranty service for the F-150 Raptor or any SVT vehicle can be
obtained at any Ford dealer nationwide.
SVT does not recommend modifying or racing SVT vehicles, as they are
designed and built to be driven as delivered from the factory. The
Warranty Guidediscusses vehicle usage and the installation of
aftermarket parts and their effect on warranty coverage.
Ford SVT has engineered your F-150 Raptor for off-road use beyond
what is normal for a F-150. However, it can incur damage if driven
beyond its capabilities. Skid plates, shock guards and running boards
were designed to help limit damage to vital components and exterior
finishes, but cannot prevent all damage if driven in extreme off-road
conditions. Damage to skid plates, shock guards, running boards and
exterior finishes as well as bent, cracked or broken body, frame and
chassis components may not be covered by warranty.
Please see theWarranty Guidefor complete information.
Perform Multi-Point Inspection and the inspections outlined in
Scheduled Maintenance Intervalsfound in thescheduled
maintenance information. Refer to the vehicle’sWorkshop Manualfor
removal and installation procedures. Replace with genuine Ford and
Motorcraftservice parts as needed.
These modifications may not necessarily protect your engine from
damage in competition conditions. Subjecting your vehicle to competition
conditions even with these proposed modifications may render repairs
non-reimbursable under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
