STARTING A DIESEL ENGINE WARNING
Operation of a diesel engine near
flammable vapors in the air may
cause the engine speed to increase
uncontrollably and over speed. If this
situation occurs, mechanical damage, fire,
explosion, personal injury or death could
result. Turning off the ignition key does not
slow or stop the engine due to
uncontrollable fueling of the engine
through flammable vapors being drawn
into the engine air inlet. Operation of
components, for example starter,
alternator, electric motors and static
electricity could also ignite flammable
vapors. Do not operate your vehicle in the
possible presence of flammable vapors
unless both a complete hazard analysis is
carried out and necessary additional safety
processes and/or equipment, for example
vapor testing, air intake shutoff devices
and ventilation are utilized. You are
responsible for using those processes
and/or equipment to make sure that the
diesel engine and all other components on
your vehicle can be operated safely under
the specific conditions and hazards that
may be encountered. Read all starting instructions carefully
before you start your vehicle.
Diesel Engine Fast Start Glow Plug
System
The diesel engine glow system consists of:
•
Eight glow plugs (one per cylinder)
• Glow Plug Control Module
• Engine Coolant Temperature sensor •
Barometric pressure sensor
• Environmental temperature sensor
The powertrain and glow plug control
modules electronically control the glow
plug system. After you switch the ignition
on the glow plug control module
immediately energizes the glow plugs. The
glow plug control module using the engine
coolant temperature, barometric pressure
sensor and environmental temperature
sensor will determine how long the glow
plugs stay energized. The required time for
the glow plugs to be energized decreases
as the coolant temperature, barometric
pressure and environmental temperature
increase.
Before starting the engine, check the
following:
• Make sure all occupants have fastened
their safety belts.
• Make sure the headlamps and
electrical accessories are off.
• Make sure the parking brake is on.
• Make sure the transmission is in park
(P) or neutral (N).
• Turn the ignition key to the on position.
Note: Do not press the accelerator during
starting.
Cold Weather Starting WARNINGS
Do not use starting fluid, for example
ether, in the air intake system (see
air filter decal). Such fluid could
cause immediate explosive damage to the
engine and possible personal injury. Do not add gasoline, gasohol, alcohol
or Kerosene to diesel fuel. This
practice creates a serious fire hazard
and causes engine performance problems. 86
F650750 (TBC), enUSA, First Printing Starting and Stopping the Engine

WARNINGS
If you do not use the correct fuel filler
cap, excessive pressure or vacuum
in the fuel tank may damage the fuel
system or cause the fuel cap to disengage
in a crash. Failure to follow this warning
could result in serious personal injury. The fuel tank has a threaded fuel filler cap.
Note:
If you must replace the fuel filler cap,
replace it with a fuel filler cap that is
designed for your vehicle. The vehicle
Warranty may be void for any damage to
the fuel tank or fuel system if the correct
genuine Ford, Motorcraft or other certified
fuel filler cap is not used.
When refueling the vehicle fuel tank do the
following.
1. When your vehicle has stopped, shift into neutral (N) or park (P).
2. Apply the parking brake and switch the
ignition off.
3. Turn the fuel filler cap counterclockwise and remove it.
4. Refuel your vehicle as required.
5. Replace the fuel filler cap, turn it clockwise until you feel a strong
resistance.
If the fuel cap warning lamp or a warning
message appears in the instrument cluster,
you may not have installed the fuel filler
cap correctly.
If the fuel cap warning lamp remains on,
at the next opportunity, safely pull off of
the road, remove the fuel filler cap, align
the cap properly and reinstall it. The check
fuel cap warning lamp or warning message
may not reset immediately. It may take
several driving cycles for the indicators to
turn off. A driving cycle consists of an
engine start-up (after four or more hours
with the engine off) followed by normal
city and highway driving. REFUELING - 6.7L DIESEL
An engine that suddenly becomes noisy or
operates poorly after a fuel fill could be
using substandard fuel. We recommend
that you purchase diesel fuel from a
reputable fuel station.
Use only clean, approved containers that
will prevent the entry of dirt or water
whenever you store diesel fuel.
Do not store diesel fuel in a galvanized
container. The fuel dissolves the zinc in the
galvanized container. The zinc will then
remain in the fuel. If you run the
contaminated fuel through the engine, the
zinc damages the fuel injectors. Engine
damage caused may not be covered by
the vehicle Warranty.
Fuel Filler Cap
WARNINGS
The fuel system may be under
pressure. If you hear a hissing sound
near the fuel filler inlet, do not refuel
until the sound stops. Otherwise, fuel may
spray out, which could cause serious
personal injury. If you do not use the correct fuel filler
cap, excessive pressure or vacuum
in the fuel tank may damage the fuel
system or cause the fuel cap to disengage
in a crash. Failure to follow this warning
could result in serious personal injury. The fuel tank has a threaded fuel filler cap.
Note:
If you must replace the fuel filler cap,
replace it with a fuel filler cap that is
designed for your vehicle. The vehicle
Warranty may be void for any damage to
the fuel tank or fuel system if the correct
genuine Ford, Motorcraft or other certified
fuel filler cap is not used.
When refueling the vehicle fuel tank do the
following.
101
F650750 (TBC), enUSA, First Printing Fuel and Refueling

1. When your vehicle has stopped, shift
into neutral (N) or park (P).
2. Apply the parking brake and switch the
ignition off.
3. Turn the fuel filler cap counterclockwise and remove it.
4. Refuel your vehicle as required.
5. Replace the fuel filler cap, turn it clockwise until you feel a strong
resistance.
If the fuel cap warning lamp or a warning
message appears in the instrument cluster,
you may not have installed the fuel filler
cap correctly.
If the fuel cap warning lamp remains on,
at the next opportunity, safely pull off of
the road, remove the fuel filler cap, align
the cap properly and reinstall it. The check
fuel cap warning lamp or warning message
may not reset immediately. It may take
several driving cycles for the indicators to
turn off. A driving cycle consists of an
engine start-up (after four or more hours
with the engine off) followed by normal
city and highway driving.
Fuel Fill Rate
Your vehicle has a fuel fill pipe that is able
to accept fuel up to 20 gal (75 L) per
minute from a fuel-dispensing nozzle.
Pumping fuel at greater flow rates may
result in premature nozzle shut-off or spit
back.
Truck stops have fuel pumps and nozzles
designed for larger, heavy-duty trucks. If
you are refueling your vehicle at a truck
stop and the nozzle shuts off repeatedly,
wait 5-10 seconds, then use a slower fill
rate. FUEL CONSUMPTION
Real world fuel consumption is governed
by many factors, for example driving style,
high speed driving, stop-start driving, air
conditioning usage, the accessories fitted,
payload and towing.
•
The usable capacity of the fuel tank is
the amount of fuel that can be added
into the tank after the gauge indicates
empty.
• The advertised capacity is the total fuel
tank size. See
Capacities and
Specifications (page 251). It is the
combined usable capacity plus the
empty reserve.
• Due to the empty reserve, you may not
be able to refuel the full amount of the
advertised capacity of the fuel tank
even when the fuel gauge reads empty.
Empty reserve is the amount of fuel
remaining in the tank after the fuel gauge
indicates empty. The amount of usable
fuel in the empty reserve varies and should
not be relied upon to increase driving range.
Filling the Tank
For consistent results when filling the fuel
tank:
• Turn the ignition off before refueling
your vehicle; a temporary inaccurate
reading may result if the engine is left
on when refueling your vehicle.
• Use the same fill rate
(low-medium-high) each time the tank
is refueled.
• Allow no more than two automatic
click-offs when refueling your vehicle.
Results are most accurate when the filling
method is consistent.

Brake-Shift Interlock (If Equipped)
WARNINGS
Do not drive your vehicle until you
verify that the brake lamps are
working.
When doing this procedure, you will
be taking your vehicle out of park
which means your vehicle can roll
freely. To avoid unwanted vehicle
movement, always fully set the parking
brake prior to doing this procedure. Use
wheel chocks if appropriate. If the parking brake is fully released,
but the brake warning lamp remains
illuminated, the brakes may not be
working properly. See your authorized
dealer. Your vehicle is equipped with a brake-shift
interlock feature that prevents the
gearshift lever from moving from park (P)
when the ignition is in the 3 (on) position
and the brake pedal is not pressed.
If you cannot move the gearshift lever out
of park (P) position with the ignition in the
4 (on) position and the brake pedal
pressed, a malfunction may have occurred.
It is possible that a fuse has blown or your
vehicle
’s brake lamps are not operating
properly. See

GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNINGS
Do not drive with your foot resting on
the brake pedal. This results in
abnormally high brake temperatures,
excessive lining wear and increased
stopping distance. Continuous application of the brakes
causes the brakes to overheat,
resulting in temporary loss of braking.
Note:
Occasional brake noise is normal. If
a metal-to-metal, continuous grinding or
continuous squeal sound is present, the
brake linings may be worn-out. Have the
system checked by an authorized dealer. If
your vehicle has continuous vibration or
shudder in the steering wheel while braking,
have it checked by an authorized dealer.
All standard equipment brakes are
self-adjusting. Automatic adjustment,
when required, occurs whenever you apply
and release the brakes during forward or
reverse operation.
Know the required stopping distances for
all driving conditions you may encounter.
For longer brake lining life, take full
advantage of engine braking power when
coming to a stop. See Warning Lamps and
Indicators (page 58).
Wet brakes result in reduced braking
efficiency. Gently press the brake pedal a
few times when driving from a car wash or
standing water to dry the brakes.
If brakes do not grip well:
• Check brake adjustment.
• Check brake linings for excessive wear.
• Check system air pressure on vehicle
equipped with air brakes. •
Let the brakes cool if you have been
using them excessively, as in mountain
driving or after several fast, high-speed
stops.
• If you have been driving through deep
water, gently apply the brakes several
times while your vehicle is moving
slowly.
Anti-lock Brake System
This system helps you maintain steering
control during emergency stops by keeping
the brakes from locking. This lamp momentarily
illuminates when you turn the
ignition on. If the light does not
illuminate during start up, remains on or
flashes, the system may be disabled. Have
the system checked by an authorized
dealer. If the system is disabled, normal
braking is still effective. If the
brake warning lamp illuminates
when you release the parking brake, have
the system checked by an authorized
dealer. If you connect a PLC trailer with
the ignition on, the trailer ABS
light also illuminates. If the light
fails to illuminate, if it remains on after you
start the vehicle or continues to flash, have
the system serviced immediately.
HINTS ON DRIVING WITH
ANTI-LOCK BRAKES
Note: When the system is operating, the
brake pedal may pulse and may travel
further. Maintain pressure on the brake
pedal. You may also hear a noise from the
system. This is normal.
120
F650750 (TBC), enUSA, First Printing BrakesE209041 E209041 E210335

The anti-lock braking system will not
eliminate the risks when:
•
You drive too closely to the vehicle in
front of you.
• Your vehicle is hydroplaning.
• You take corners too fast.
• The road surface is poor.
PARKING BRAKE
Hydraulic Brakes WARNINGS
Do not use the gearshift selector in
place of the parking brake. Always
set the parking brake fully AND make
sure the transmission is in park (P) or
neutral (N). Use of wheel chocks is also
recommended in hilly or off-road usage.
Unexpected and possible sudden vehicle
movement may occur if these precautions
are not taken. If the parking brake is fully released
but the parking brake warning lamp
remains illuminated, the brakes may
not be working properly. See your dealer
or a qualified service technician. Apply the parking brake whenever the
vehicle is parked. To set the parking brake,
pull the handle up until it snaps into the
locked position.
When the parking brake is out of
adjustment, seek service immediately.
The parking brake warning lamp
in the instrument cluster
illuminates, and remains
illuminated (when you switch on the
ignition), until you release the parking
brake. Push the palm release lever (A) on the
parking brake handle (B) and push down
as far as possible to release the brake.
Driving with the parking brake on causes
the brakes to wear out quickly and reduces
fuel economy.
We recommend you not use the parking
brake to stop a moving vehicle. However,
if the normal brakes fail, you can use the
parking brake to stop your vehicle in an
emergency. Since the parking brake only
applies retardation to the rear wheels, the
vehicle's stopping distance increases
greatly and the handling of your vehicle is
adversely affected.
Applying the Parking Brake
Note:
If the light blinks and a warning tone
sounds when you pull the control knob, the
parking brake is not functioning properly.
Seek immediate service from your dealer.
Pull the yellow, dash-mounted parking
brake knob. The parking brake light
illuminates indicating that the parking
brake has been successfully set.
Releasing the Parking Brake WARNING
Hold the brake pedal down while
moving the gearshift lever from
position to position. If the brake
pedal is not held down, the vehicle may
move unexpectedly resulting in property
damage, personal injury or death. 121
