Water in fuel:During refueling, it
is possible for water-contaminated
diesel fuel to be pumped into your
tank. Your vehicle fuel system is
equipped with a fuel filter/water separator to remove water from the
fuel. The
light will illuminate when the fuel filter/water separator
has a significant quantity of water in it.
If the light illuminates when the engine is running, stop the vehicle as
soon as safely possible, shut off the engine, then drain the fuel
filter/water separator. Refer to your engine operator’s manual for the
drain procedure. Allowing water to stay in the system could result in
extensive damage to, or failure of, the fuel injection system.
WARNING:Do not drain water separator while engine is
running. Fuel may ignite if separator is drained while engine is
running or vehicle is moving.
Diesel exhaust fluid:Illuminates
when the diesel exhaust fluid level
falls below 0.5 gallon (1.9L) in the
5 gallon (19.0L) tank or 1 gallon
(3.8L) in the 9 gallon (34.0L) tank.
Refill the tank or, at a minimum,
add at least 1 gallon (3.8L) in the
5 gallon (19.0L) tank or 2 gallons
(7.6L) in the 9 gallon (34.0L) tank to turn off the light.
Diesel particulate filter:
Illuminates if the soot in the DPF
has reached a level where it
requires operator assistance. Refer
toDiesel particulate filterin the
Maintenance and Specifications
chapter and your engine operator’s
manual, for more details.

•The fan clutch is controlled by bimetallic spring sensors. Do not
tamper with these sensors as this may change their calibration or keep
the fan clutch from operating at all.
WARNING:Stay clear of the fan/fan area while the engine is
running or possible personal injury may occur.
FUEL FILTER/WATER SEPARATOR
WARNING:Do not drain water separator while engine is
running. Fuel may ignite if separator is drained while engine is
running or vehicle is moving.
The fuel filter/water separator removes any contaminated particles
and/or water from the fuel before the fuel enters the engine.
Refer to your engine operator’s manual for information on draining and
replacing the fuel filter.
FUEL INFORMATION
Important safety precautions
WARNING:Do not overfill the fuel tank. The pressure in an
overfilled tank may cause leakage and lead to fuel spray and fire.
WARNING:The fuel system may be under pressure. If the fuel
cap is venting vapor or if you hear a hissing sound, wait until it
stops before completely removing the cap.
WARNING:Automotive fuels can cause serious injury or death
if misused or mishandled.

1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop on level ground and safely off the
road with the exhaust system away from people, flammable materials,
vapors or structures. Ford recommends that you perform a walk-around
to check before commencing parked regeneration.
2. If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic transmission and a
steering column shift lever, place transmission in P (Park). Otherwise,
place the transmission in N (Neutral).
3. Remove feet from the accelerator pedal and clutch pedal (if
equipped).
4. Set the parking brake.
5.Within 5 seconds of setting the parking brake,remove foot from
the service brake pedal.
The engine speed may increase slightly. To allow parked regeneration to
continue uninterrupted:
1. The vehicle must remain parked
2. The transmission must remain in P (Park) or N (Neutral) (as
previously described in Step 2).
3. The accelerator pedal, service brake pedal, and clutch pedal (if
equipped) must not be pressed
4. The parking brake must remain set
On average (depending on filter level and other factors), the process will
take 20–30 minutes to complete. The DPF lamp will turn off when the
process is complete. Repeat Steps 1–5, if parked regeneration is
interrupted.
To discontinue parked regeneration
Press any of the floor pedals to discontinue parked regeneration.
Diesel particulate filter maintenance and service
The DPF is designed to retain a relatively large amount of residual ash
and provide many miles and hours of maintenance-free operation. At
some point, generally beyond 150,000 miles (240,000 km) or 5,000 hours
of operation (whichever comes first), the DPF will require professional
cleaning to remove the accumulated ash
The exact number of miles or hours of operation will vary greatly
depending upon vehicle/engine loading and operating conditions, ash
content of the engine oil, and quality of the diesel fuel used in your
truck. Adhering to your engine manufacturer’s recommended oil and fuel
