WARNING:Driving a vehicle with the brake system warning
light on is dangerous. A significant decrease in braking
performance may occur. It takes you longer to stop the vehicle. Have
the vehicle checked by your authorized dealer. Driving extended
distances with the parking brake engaged can cause brake failure and
the risk of personal injury.
Charging System
It illuminates when the 12–volt battery is not charging properly.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible. This indicates
a problem with the electrical system or a related component.
Check Fuel Cap (gasoline engine only)
It illuminates when you may not have installed the fuel cap
properly. Continued driving with this light on may cause the
service engine soon warning indicator to come on.
Check Suspension
It illuminates when you press the air suspension dump switch.
Check Transmission (Allison automatic transmission only)
It illuminates while driving if a transmission problem exists;
shifting may be restricted. Depending on the severity of the
problem, the shifter’s digital read-out may turn blank.
On MD 3000 series transmissions, operation may continue in order to
reach service assistance. The control unit may not respond to shift
selector requests, since there are operating limitations on the
transmission (such as upshift and downshift restrictions). Direction
changes do not occur.
Cruise Control
It illuminates when you switch this feature on.

Owners Guide gf(ownloose), 1st Printing, December 2013

Instrument cluster lamp(s) illuminates or flashes when operator
assistance is required. In addition, engine performance becomes
increasingly limited above Level 1.
At Levels 1 and 2, the operator can take two courses of action to
facilitate filter regeneration:
1. Drive your vehicle on the highway at highway speeds.
2. Perform a parked regeneration by following the steps inParked
regeneration.
At Level 3, performing a parked regeneration is the only available course
of action (short of professional servicing) available to the operator for
regenerating the filter. At Level 4, professional servicing is the only way
to regenerate the filter.
Parked Regeneration
WARNING:When performing the parked regeneration
procedure, make certain the vehicle is safely off the roadway, and
the exhaust system is away from people, or any flammable materials,
vapors, or structures. Engine speed may increase during parked
regeneration.
Note:Parked regeneration is only available when the DPF lamp on the
instrument cluster is illuminated solid or flashing.
1. Bring your 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 before beginning a parked regeneration.
2. If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic transmission and a
steering column shift lever, place the transmission in positionP.
Otherwise, place the transmission in positionN.
3. Remove your feet from the accelerator pedal and clutch pedal
(manual transmission).
4. Set the parking brake.
5. Within five seconds of setting the parking brake, remove your 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 positionPorNas previously
described in Step 2.

HAZARD FLASHER CONTROL
Note:With extended use, the flasher may run down your battery.
The hazard flasher is located on the
steering column, just behind the
steering wheel. The hazard flashers
operate when the ignition is in any
position or if the key is not in the
ignition.
•Press the flasher control to flash
all front and rear direction
signals.
•Press the flasher control again to turn them off.
Use it when your vehicle is creating a safety hazard for other motorists.

WARNING:The gases around the battery can explode if exposed
to flames, sparks, or lit cigarettes. An explosion could result in
injury or vehicle damage.
WARNING:Batteries contain sulfuric acid which can burn skin,
eyes and clothing, if contacted.

Owners Guide gf(ownloose), 1st Printing, December 2013

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. In the United States, using leaded fuel may also result in difficulty
importing your vehicle back into the U.S.
Ford dealerships outside of the U.S. and Canada may be unable to

provided by the service manual. Hydraulic brake systems are
power-assisted. There is a great reduction in braking capabilities
without engine assist.
•Proper fluid level. The level should be at the bottom edge of the ring
on each reservoir fill port. Do not fill the master cylinder to the top of
the reservoir. If fluid level requires attention to maintain a proper
master cylinder level, this is an indication of either severe operation
(pad wear) or fluid leakage. A more frequent and thorough brake
inspection is required.
•Brake lines, hoses and fittings. Repair or replace brake line tubes,
hoses or fittings as required. Inspect these components every
4000 miles (6000 kilometers):
•Lines for kinks, dents, corrosion or rupture.
•Hoses for abrasions, kinks, soft spots or rupture, collapse, cracks,
twists or loose frame supports. When replacing a hose, be sure
there is adequate clearance to the hose to avoid an abrasion to the
new hose.
•All connections for leaks.
Driveline Parking Brake
WARNING:Use wheel chocks and exercise caution when
inspecting under the vehicle. A vehicle roll-away could result in
property damage, personal injury or death.
A qualified technician should adjust the parking brake and keep to the
instructions in the service manual.
Steering System
WARNING:Failure to maintain the steering system in proper
condition can cause reduced steering ability resulting in property
damage, personal injury or death.
Note:Have any steering problems immediately corrected by a qualified
service technician.
Ask your service technician to examine the steering mechanism. Only
minor adjustments may be necessary. Regular inspections should include:
•Checking the tie rod, drag link end clamp bolts and ball joints for
proper tightness.
•Checking for installation and spread of cotter pins and tightness of
nuts at both ends of the tie rod and drag link.
