12. Important information about ambulanceconversions
Ford vehicles are suitable for producing ambulances only if equipped
with the Ford Ambulance Prep Package . In addition, Ford urges
ambulance manufacturers to follow the recommendations of the Ford
Incomplete Vehicle Manual and theFord Truck Body Builders
Layout Book (and pertinent supplements).
Using a Ford vehicle without the Ford Ambulance Prep Package
to produce an ambulance could result in elevated underbody
temperatures, fuel overpressurization, and the risk of fuel
expulsion and fires. Such use also voids the Ford Bumper to
Bumper Warranty and may void the Emissions Warranties.
You may determine whether the vehicle is equipped with the Ford
Ambulance Prep Package by inspecting the information plate on the
driver’s rear door pillar.
You may determine whether the ambulance manufacturer has followed
Ford’s recommendations by contacting the ambulance manufacturer of
your vehicle.
