2015 FORD F650 fuel cap

Note:Do not put DEF in the fuel tank or any other tank on your
vehicle. This can cause damage to components not covered by your
vehicle’s warranty.
Your vehicle is equipped with a DEF tank with a blue-capped filler port.
The 5-gallon (19.0L) DEF tank is located on the left side of your vehicle
under the cab. The 9-gallon (34.0L) DEF tank is located on the right
side of your vehicle behind the cab (Regular Cab and Super Cab) or
under the cab (Crew Cab). The tank can be filled using a nozzle at a
DEF filling station (similar to fuel fill) or using a DEF bottle with a
spout. We recommend using Motorcraft brand DEF bottles. You can use
other aftermarket bottles, but the bottles should have a seal on the spout
and an internal vent tube to achieve best fill performance and prevent
overfilling.
You can buy DEF at an authorized dealer, most highway truck stops or
you can contact roadside assistance for help in finding a retailer that
sells DEF. See theCustomer Assistancechapter for more information. In
addition, a government website locator is available for diesel exhaust
fluid supplies. Use the following web address to find the nearest location
to buy DEF: http://www.afdc.energy.gov/afdc/locator/def.
Use Motorcraft DEF or equivalent meeting Ford
specification WSS-M2C130-A or ISO 22241. Use only
DEF certified by the American Petroleum Institute.
Look for this certification trademark. Your warranty
may not cover repairs resulting from the use of
non-certified DEF products.
Maintaining the purity of DEF is important to avoid malfunctions in the
SCR system.
If you remove DEF from the tank for any reason (such as repair work),
do not use the same DEF to refill the tank as may not have kept its
purity.

To fill the DEF tank, see an authorized dealer or do the following (before
filling the DEF tank in cold climates, seeFilling the DEF tank in cold
climateslater in this section):
DEF Bottle Fill with Spout
The following procedure applies to Motorcraft DEF or similar DEF
bottles. For other brands or bottle types, see the instructions on the
bottle label.
1. Remove the cap from the DEF
container and twist the spout onto
the container until the locking tab
engages.
2. Open the DEF filler port on your
vehicle by turning the blue cap
counterclockwise a quarter-turn.
3. Lift and hold the DEF container,
without tipping, and insert the
spout, into the DEF filler port.
4. Lift and tip the container to let
DEF flow into the tank. Pour DEF
until the container is empty or DEF
flow stops. DEF can be seen flowing
through the spout, but does not
completely fill the spout while
flowing. Air is trapped in the spout
while DEF is flowing. When the
DEF tank is full, DEF completely
fills the spout and displaces the air
in the spout.

5. Once the spout is full with DEF (no more large air pockets), return
the container to the vertical position slightly below the DEF filler port
and let any DEF drain out of the spout. DO NOT try to continue to add
DEF to the tank by shaking or repositioning the container to induce flow.
This may cause spilling and overfill the tank. Overfilling the DEF tank
can cause damage to the tank.
6. Once the spout has drained, remove the spout from the DEF filler
port and install the blue cap on the DEF filler port by turning the cap
clockwise a
14-turn.
7. Remove the spout from the DEF container and install the cap back on
the bottle.
8. If the container is empty, discard the empty container and spout, or
recycle if possible. If there is some DEF left in the container, retain it
and the spout for later use. Store the spout to keep it clean.
9. Wipe away any DEF that has spilled on painted surfaces with water
and a damp cloth.
DEF Filling Station Nozzle Fill
Filling the DEF tank using a nozzle is similar to a normal fuel fill. The
nozzle shuts off automatically when the tank is full. Do not continue to
fill the tank as this may cause spillage and overfill the tank, which can
cause damage.
Filling the DEF Tank in Cold Climates
DEF freezes below 12°F (-11°C). If temperatures are at or below 12°F
(-11°C) for an extended period, and the DEF tank is full, and you are
not going to drive your vehicle, there is a risk that the tank could freeze,
causing damage. If low temperature conditions are expected, you should
keep your tank at least 50% full and make sure you add DEF on level
ground to prevent the fluid from freezing on an angle.

operation resumes when you restart your vehicle.
DEF Guidelines and Information
•DEF is non-flammable, non-toxic, colorless and water-soluble.
•Use only DEF that carries the trademark: AMERICAN PETROLEUM
INSTITUTE CERTIFIED DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID.
•An ammonia odor may be smelled when the cap is removed or during
a refill. Refill the DEF tank in a well-ventilated area.
•Before filling the tank, make sure the surrounding area is clean of
debris to prevent contamination.
•Do not dilute DEF with water or any other liquid.
•Do not put DEF in the fuel tank or any other tank on your vehicle.
•Do not re-use the nozzle or the DEF container once it is empty.
•Do not overfill the DEF tank.
•Avoid spilling DEF on painted surfaces, carpeting or plastic

Do not attempt to push-start your automatic transmission vehicle.
Automatic transmissions do not have push-start capability. Attempting to
push-start a vehicle with an automatic transmission may cause
transmission damage.
Six-speed TorqShift transmissions have an adaptive shift strategy. When
you disconnect the battery or install a new battery, the automatic
transmission must relearn its shift strategy. As a result, the transmission
may have firm soft shifts, firm shifts or both. This operation is normal
and does not affect function or durability of the transmission. Over time,
the adaptive learning process fully updates transmission operation.
Preparing Your Vehicle
Note:Use only a 12–volt supply to start your vehicle.
Note:Do not disconnect the battery of the disabled vehicle as this could
damage the vehicle’s electrical system.
1. Park the booster vehicle close to the hood of the disabled vehicle
making sure the two vehicles do not touch. Set the parking brake on
both vehicles and stay clear of the engine cooling fan and other
moving parts.
2. Check all battery terminals and remove any excessive corrosion
before you attach the battery cables. Make sure that vent caps are
tight and level.
3. Turn the heater fan on in both vehicles to protect from any electrical
surges. Turn all other accessories off.
Connecting the Jumper Cables
WARNING:Do not connect the end of the second cable to the
negative (-) terminal of the battery to be jumped. A spark may
cause an explosion of the gases that surround the battery.
Note:Do not attach the negative (-) cable to fuel lines, engine rocker
covers, the intake manifold or electrical components as grounding points.
Note:In the illustration, the vehicle on the bottom is used to designate
the assisting (boosting) battery.

FUEL FILTER
Gasoline Engine
Your vehicle is equipped with a lifetime fuel filter that is part of the fuel
tank. You do need to perform regular maintenance or replace it.
Diesel Engine
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
water from the fuel before the fuel enters the engine.
See your engine operator’s manual for information on draining and
replacing the fuel filter.
WASHER FLUID CHECK
WARNING:If you operate your vehicle in temperatures below
40°F (5°C), use washer fluid with antifreeze protection. Failure
to use washer fluid with antifreeze protection in cold weather could
result in impaired windshield vision and increase the risk of injury or
accident.
Add fluid to fill the reservoir if the level is low. Only use a washer fluid
that meets Ford specifications. SeeTechnical specificationsin the
Capacities and Specificationschapter.
State or local regulations on volatile organic compounds may restrict the
use of methanol, a common windshield washer antifreeze additive. Only
use washer fluids containing non-methanol antifreeze agents if they
provide cold weather protection without damaging your vehicle’s paint
finish, wiper blades or washer system.
CHANGING THE VEHICLE BATTERY
WARNING:This vehicle may be equipped with more than one
battery, removal of cable from only one battery does not
disconnect the vehicle electrical system. Be sure to disconnect cables
from all batteries when disconnecting power. Failure to do so may
cause serious personal injury or property damage.
