When the engine control module detects that the DPF is nearly full of
particulates and that the vehicle is not being operated in a manner to
allow effective automatic cleaning, the information display will display
DRIVE TO CLEAN EXHAUST FILTERfor base information display
andDrive to Clean Exhaust Systemfor the optional information
display, guiding the vehicle operator to drive in order to clean the DPF. If
the vehicle is operated in a manner to allow effective automatic cleaning,
the information display will display a cleaning exhaust filter message,
which is the normal regeneration process. See theInformation Displays
chapter of theOwner Guidefor more information.
You can also choose OCR to clean the exhaust system at this point. See
How to start operator commanded regeneration (OCR)later in this
chapter.
If the operator is not able to drive in a manner that allows effective
automatic cleaning (active regeneration) or the operator instead wishes
to perform regeneration of the DPF (cleaning) while at idle (stationary),
then OCR (operator commanded regeneration) will need to be
performed. SeeOperator commanded regeneration (OCR)following.
Operator Commanded Regeneration (OCR) (if equipped)
If your vehicle is operated with significant stationary operation, low
speed drive cycles less then 25 mph, short drive cycles, a drive time is
less than 10 - 15 minutes or the vehicle does not fully warm up, passive
and active regeneration may not sufficiently clean the DPF system. OCR
allows you to manually start regeneration of the diesel particulate filter
(DPF) at idle (while stationary) to clean the DPF. If you are not sure
whether your vehicle is equipped with this feature, contact your
authorized dealer.
When to perform OCR
Use the OCR feature when theDRIVE TO CLEAN EXHAUST FILTER
message appears in the information display and:
•the operator is not able to drive in manner that allows effective
automatic cleaning (active regeneration),
•or the operator instead wishes to manually start regeneration
(cleaning) of the DPF while the vehicle is idle (stationary).

Among those acts which the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency may
presume to constitute tampering are the acts listed below:
•Removal of hood blanket, fender apron absorbers, fender apron
barriers, underbody noise shields or acoustically absorptive material.
•Tampering or rendering inoperative the engine speed governor, so as
to allow engine speed to exceed manufacturer’s specifications.
The complexity of the diesel engine makes it so the owner is discouraged
from attempting to perform maintenance other than the services
described in this supplement.
If you experience difficult starting, rough idling, excessive exhaust
smoke, a decrease in engine performance or excess fuel consumption,
perform the following checks:
•a plugged or disconnected air inlet system or engine air filter element.
•water in the fuel filter/water separator.
•a clogged fuel filter.
•contaminated fuel.
•air in the fuel system, due to loose connections.
•an open or pinched sensor hose.
•check engine oil level.
•wrong fuel or oil viscosity for climactic conditions.
If these checks do not help you correct the engine performance problem
you are experiencing, consult an authorized dealer.

recommended oils because they will provide acceptable engine
performance and durability. These oils are also compatible with the
emission control equipment of your vehicle to meet the more stringent
emission standards.
The use of correct oil viscosities for diesel engines is important for
satisfactory operation. Determine which oil viscosity best suits the
temperature range you expect to encounter for the next service interval
from the following SAE viscosity grade chart.
1For severe duty usage, use SAE 5W-40 API CJ-4.
2For biodiesel (grades B6-B20) usage, use SAE 5W-40 or SAE
15W-40 API CJ-4.
An engine block heater is recommended at temperatures below –10°F
(–23°C).
The American Petroleum Institute
(API) service symbol is used to
identify the proper engine oil for

Changing the engine oil and oil filter
WARNING:Do not handle a hot oil filter with bare hands.
WARNING:Continuous contact with used motor oil has caused
cancer in laboratory mice. Protect your skin by washing with
soap and water.
Your vehicle is equipped with an Intelligent Oil Life Monitor™ that
calculates the proper oil change service interval. When the information
display indicates:OIL CHANGE REQUIRED, change the engine oil and
oil filter. See theInformation Displayschapter in theOwner Manual
for more information.
Refer toMotorcraft part numberstheCapacities and Specifications
chapter for the engine oil filter part number. This filter protects your
engine by filtering harmful, abrasive or sludge particles and particles
significantly smaller than most available “will-fit” filters.
To change the engine oil and oil filter:
1. Unscrew the oil filter and oil pan drain plug and wait for the oil to drain.
Note:The oil pan drain plug only requires 1/4 turn to removal/install. A
3/8 inch socket drive may be used to assist with removal/installation, but be
careful not to over-tighten the plug during installation.
2. Replace the filter.
3. Reinstall the oil pan drain plug.
4. Refill the engine with new oil. For the proper capacity, seeCapacities
and Specificationschapter.
5. Reset the Intelligent Oil Life Monitor™. See theInformation Displays
chapter in theOwner Manualfor more information.
Engine lubrication for severe service operation
The following conditions define severe operation for which engine
operation with SAE 5W-40 API CJ-4 is recommended. Oil and oil filter
change intervals will be determined by the Intelligent Oil Life Monitor™
as noted previously.
•
frequent or extended idling (over 10 minutes per hour of normal driving)
•low-speed operation/stationary use
•if vehicle is operated in sustained ambient temperatures below -10°F
(-23°C) or above 100°F (38°C)

Checking coolant corrosion inhibitor additive strength
At specific mileage intervals of 15,000 miles (24,000 km), as listed in the
scheduled maintenance informationchapter, the coolant corrosion
inhibitor additive should be checked. The optional information display, if
equipped, will also display the messageCHECK COOLANT ADDITIVE
at this time. The purpose of checking is to verify the correct engine
coolant concentration (freeze point protection) and corrosion inhibitor
additive level (strength) of the coolant for maximum engine performance
and protection. Three products are available for ensuring the life and
health of the coolant: one tool, a test kit and a coolant inhibitor additive:
•Rotunda tool 300–ROB75240 available from your dealer –
recommended refractometer to test coolant concentration.
•
Rotunda 328-R071–ELC (Antifreeze Coolant ELC Contamination Kit) –
Evaluates the corrosion inhibitor additive strength. Note the first step is
to verify the vehicle’s coolant concentration is in the correct range of 40
– 60%. Coolant concentrations outside this range will not provide valid
test results. If the report results in a pass (i.e., the cooling system does
not show excessive contamination/the corrosion inhibitor additive
strength is sufficient), no action is required. If the report results as
insufficient (does not pass), the corrosion inhibitor additive strength of
the coolant is too low. If the ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM corrosion
inhibitor additive strength is low, add 48 fluid oz. of Motorcraft®
Specialty Orange Engine Coolant Revitalizer. If the SECONDARY
COOLING SYSTEM corrosion inhibitor additive strength is low, add 16
fluid oz. of Motorcraft® Specialty Orange Engine Coolant Revitalizer.
•Motorcraft® Specialty Orange Engine Coolant Revitalizer – Additive to
boost the corrosion inhibitor level based upon the test results of the
Antifreeze Coolant ELC Contamination Kit. The Revitalizer may be
added two times over the life of the coolant. If additional dosages are
required, the cooling system must be flushed and refilled per the
instructions in the Workshop Manual.
Refer to theCapacities and Specificationschapter for the proper
coolant and additive specifications.
Coolant change
At specific mileage intervals, as listed in thescheduled maintenance
information,the coolant should be changed. The optional information
display, if equipped, will also display the messageCOOLANT CHANGE
REQUIREDat this time.
Refer to theCapacities and Specificationschapter for the proper coolant.

Protecting Your Investment
Maintenance is an investment that will pay dividends in the form of
improved reliability, durability and resale value. To maintain the proper
performance of your vehicle and its emission control systems, it is
imperative that scheduled maintenance be completed at the designated
intervals.
Your vehicle is equipped with the Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor® (IOLM)
system which displays a message in the information display at the proper
oil change service interval; this interval may be up to one year or
10000 miles (16000 kilometers). When ENGINE OIL CHANGE DUE or
OIL CHANGE REQUIRED appears in the information display, it is time
for an oil change; the oil change must be done within two weeks or
500 miles (800 kilometers) of the ENGINE OIL CHANGE DUE or OIL
CHANGE REQUIRED message appearing. The Intelligent Oil-Life
Monitor® must be reset after each oil change; see theInformation
Displayschapter of yourOwner’s Manual.
If your information display is prematurely reset or becomes inoperative,
you should perform the oil change interval at six months or 5000 miles
(8000 kilometers) from your last oil change. Never exceed one year or
10000 miles (16000 kilometers) between oil change intervals.
Your vehicle is very sophisticated and built with multiple, complex,
performance systems. Every manufacturer develops these systems using
different specifications and performance features. That is why it is
important to rely upon your dealership to properly diagnose and repair
your vehicle.
Ford Motor Company has recommended maintenance intervals for
various parts and component systems based upon engineering testing.
Ford Motor Company relies upon this testing to determine the most
appropriate mileage for replacement of oils and fluids to protect your
vehicle at the lowest overall cost to you and recommends against
maintenance schedules that deviate from the scheduled maintenance
information.
Ford strongly recommends the use of only genuine Ford, Motorcraft® or
Ford-authorized remanufactured replacement parts because they are
engineered for your vehicle.
Additives and Chemicals
Ford Motor Company recommended additives and chemicals are listed in
the owner manual and in the Ford Workshop Manual. Additional
chemicals or additives not approved by Ford Motor Company are not
recommended as part of normal maintenance. Please consult your
warranty information.
