2015 FORD F750 Owners Manual

DRIVING THROUGH WATER
If driving through deep or standing water is unavoidable, proceed very
slowly especially if you do not know the depth. Never drive through
water that is higher than the bottom of the hubs. Traction or brake
capability may be limited and your vehicle may stall. Water may also
enter your engine’s air intake and severely damage your engine, drive
axles or the transmission (through the breather ports).
Once through the water, always dry the brakes by moving your vehicle
slowly while applying light pressure on the brake pedal. Wet brakes do
not stop the vehicle as quickly as dry brakes.

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.

GETTING THE SERVICES YOU NEED
Warranty repairs to your vehicle must be performed by an authorized
Ford dealer. While any authorized dealer handling your vehicle line will
provide warranty service, we recommend that you return to your
authorized selling dealer to ensure your continued satisfaction.
Please note that certain warranty repairs require special training or
equipment, so not all authorized dealers are authorized to perform all
warranty repairs. This means that, depending on the warranty repair
needed, you may need to take your vehicle to another authorized dealer.
If you have questions or concerns, or are unsatisfied with the service you
are receiving, follow these steps:
1. Contact your Sales Representative or Service Advisor at your selling
or servicing dealership.
2. If your inquiry or concern remains unresolved, contact the Sales
Manager or Service Manager at the dealership.
3. If the inquiry or concern cannot be resolved at the dealership level,
contact the Ford Commercial Vehicle Operations Hotline. Please have
the following information available:
•Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
•your telephone number (home and business)
•the name of the authorized dealer and city where located
•the vehicle’s current odometer reading.
In some states, you must directly notify Ford in writing before pursuing
remedies under your state’s warranty laws. Ford is also allowed a final
repair attempt in some states.
