2013 FORD SUPER DUTY wheel

Base information display procedure
1. Start with the vehicle engine fully warmed.
2. Press the Info button on the steering wheel until the information
display reads one of the following choices:
•If the DPF needs cleaning and the vehicle is warmed up, a message
requesting permission to initiate filter cleaning will be displayed
EXHST XX% FULL CLEAN Y/NorEXHAUST FILTER FULL.
Answer yes to this prompt and then follow the prompts regarding
exhaust position as needed to initiate OCR. Be sure to understand
each prompt. If you are not sure what is being asked by each prompt,
contact your authorized dealer. The display will confirm the operation
has started and when it has finished.
•If the vehicle is warmed up, the
powertrain fault indicator will
illuminate and messages
requesting permission to initiate filter cleaning will be displayed
DRIVE TO CLEAN EXHAUST FILTER+EXH OVERLOADED
CLEAN? Y/N. Answer yes to this prompt and then follow the
prompts regarding exhaust position as needed to initiate OCR. Be sure
to understand each prompt. If you are not sure what is being asked by
each prompt, contact your authorized dealer. The display will confirm
the operation has started and when it has finished. You can also drive
to clean the filter. SeeActive regenerationearlier in this chapter.
•The service engine soon light will
illuminate and the following
messagesEXH OVERLOADED
CLEAN? Y/N+REDUCED ENGINE POWERwill appear when the
system is at the point of oversaturation you will not be able to allow
cleaning . The vehicle must be serviced by an authorized dealer.
3. Once OCR starts, the engine’s rpm will rise to approximately 2,000 -
2,400 rpm and the cooling fan will increase speed; you will hear a change
in audible sound due to the fan and engine speed increase.
It is not necessary to open the hood on the engine compartment. Once
OCR is complete, the engine rpm and fan will return to normal idling.
The exhaust system will remain very hot for several minutes even after
regeneration is complete. Do not reposition the vehicle over materials
that could burn until the exhaust system has had sufficient time to
cool. Depending on the amount of soot collected by the DPF, ambient
temperature, and altitude, OCR may last from 10 to 25 minutes.

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.
DUAL FUEL TANK SELECTOR CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED)
If your vehicle is equipped with dual
fuel tanks, you will have a selector
control, located to the right of the
steering wheel, which allows you to
draw fuel from either tank. Your fuel
gauge and the DTE (distance to
empty) will display the amount of
fuel in the currently selected tank.

Oils, Fluids and Flushing
In many cases, fluid discoloration is a normal operating characteristic
and, by itself, does not necessarily indicate a concern or that the fluid
needs to be changed. However, discolored fluids that also show signs of
overheating and foreign material contamination should be inspected
immediately by a qualified expert, such as the factory-trained technicians
at your dealership. Your vehicle’s oils and fluids should be changed at the
specified intervals or in conjunction with a repair. Flushing is a viable
way to change fluid for many vehicle sub-systems during scheduled
maintenance. It is critical that systems are flushed only with new fluid
that is the same as that required to fill and operate the system, or using
a Ford-approved flushing chemical.
Owner Checks and Services
Certain basic maintenance checks and inspections should be performed by
the owner or a service technician at the intervals indicated. Service
information and supporting specifications are provided in theOwner’s Guide.
Any adverse condition should be brought to the attention of your dealer
or qualified service technician as soon as possible for the proper service
advice. The owner maintenance service checks are generally not covered
by warranties so you may be charged for labor, parts or fluids used.
Check Every Month
Engine air filter restriction gauge.
Fuel filter/water separator. Drain if necessary (or if indicated by the
information display).
Holes/Slots in the tail pipe to make sure they are functional and clear
of debris.
Retightening Lug Nuts*
Vehicles with
single rear wheelsRetighten 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.)
Vehicles with dual
rear wheelsRetighten 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.)
*SeeWheel lug nut torque specificationsin yourOwner’s Manualfor
the proper lug nut torque specification.
