Cold Weather Starting
WARNING: 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. WARNING:
Do not add gasoline,
gasohol, alcohol or Kerosene to diesel
fuel. This practice creates a serious fire
hazard and causes engine performance
problems.
We recommend using the engine block
heater for starting when the ambient
temperature is at or below
-9°F (-23°C)
See Engine Block Heater (page 90).
When operating in cold weather, you can
use Motorcraft® cetane improvers or
non-alcohol-based cetane improvers from
a reputable manufacturer as needed.
Do not crank the engine for more than 10
seconds as starter damage may occur. If
the engine fails to start, turn the key to the
off position and wait 30 seconds before
trying again.
Your vehicle may be equipped with a cold
weather starting strategy that prevents
severe engine damage by assisting in
engine lubrication warm-up. In extremely
cold ambient temperatures, this strategy
activates and prevents the accelerator
pedal use for 30 seconds after starting
your vehicle. A message appears in the
information display as your vehicle warms
up. By not allowing the accelerator pedal
use, the engine oil can properly lubricate
the bearings preventing engine damage
due to lack of proper lubrication. After the
30-second warm-up period, the
accelerator pedal is operational again and
a message appears informing you that your
vehicle is ok to drive. When starting the engine in extremely cold
temperatures, for example
-15°F (-26°C),
we recommend you allow the engine to
idle for several minutes before driving your
vehicle. Illuminates when you switch the
ignition on as part of the
pre-starting system.
1. Turn the key to the on position without
turning the key to the start position. Do
not start the engine until the wait to
start indicator turns off.
2. When the wait to start indicator turns off, turn the key to the start position
and release the key as soon as the
engine starts. After starting the engine,
the glow plugs may remain on for a
period. If you do not start the engine
before the glow plug activation time
ends, you need to reset the glow plugs
by turning the key to the off position.
3. After the engine starts, allow it to idle for about 15 seconds. This is to protect
the engine. Do not increase engine
speed until the oil pressure gauge
indicates normal pressure.
SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE
Allow the engine to idle for three to five
minutes before shutting it down. The larger
the engine, the greater the need is for this
idling period.
Note: Try to limit engine idle to 10 minutes.
Excessive idling reduces fuel economy.

ENGINE IDLE SHUTDOWN (IF
EQUIPPED) WARNING:
In the event of engine
shutdown, make sure your vehicle is
safely off the road and the problem is
resolved before returning to the road.
Failure to do so may result in a crash,
serious injury or death.
This feature automatically shuts down the
engine when it has been idling in park (P)
or neutral (N) for an extended period,
depending on the setting.
When the engine idle shutdown process
has started:
• A chime sounds and a message
appears in the information display
showing a timer counting down from
30 seconds.
• You can reset the timer by pressing the
brake pedal, accelerator pedal, or by
shifting into another gear.
• If you do not intervene within 30
seconds, the engine shuts down and a
message appears in the information
display alerting you that the engine has
shut down.
• Shortly after the engine has shut down,
the electrical system simulates a key
off and even though the ignition is still
on, the electrical system simulates a
normal accessory delay period before
shutting down.
• You must switch the ignition off to
reset the system before restarting your
vehicle. The engine idle shutdown timer does not
start if:
•
The engine is operating in battery
charge protect or power take-off mode.
• The exhaust emission control device is
regenerating.
ENGINE BLOCK HEATER
(IF
EQUIPPED) WARNING:
Failure to follow
engine block heater instructions could
result in property damage or serious
personal injury. WARNING:
Do not use your heater
with ungrounded electrical systems or
two-pronged adapters. There is a risk of
electrical shock.
Note: The heater is most effective when
outdoor temperatures are below
0°F
(-18°C).
The heater acts as a starting aid by
warming the engine coolant. This allows
the climate control system to respond
quickly. The equipment includes a heater
element (installed in the engine block) and
a wire harness. You can connect the
system to a grounded 120-volt AC
electrical source.
We recommend that you do the following
for a safe and correct operation:
• Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension cord
that is product certified by
Underwriter ’s Laboratory (UL) or
Canadian Standards Association
(CSA). This extension cord must be
suitable for use outdoors, in cold

Fuel Filler Cap
WARNING: 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. WARNING:
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.
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.
REFUELING - GASOLINE WARNING:
Fuel vapor burns
violently and a fuel fire can cause severe
injuries. WARNING:
Read and follow all
the instructions on the pump island. WARNING: When refueling always
shut the engine off and never allow
sparks or open flames near the fuel tank
filler valve. Never smoke or use a cell
phone while refueling. Fuel vapor is
extremely hazardous under certain
conditions. Avoid inhaling excess fumes.

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

city and highway driving.
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 255). 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.
Calculating Fuel Economy
Do not measure fuel economy during the
first
900 mi (1,500 km) of driving (this is
your engine ’s break-in period); a more
accurate measurement is obtained after
1,900 mi (3,000 km)
.
Fuel expense, frequency of fill ups or fuel
gauge readings are not accurate ways to
measure fuel economy.
1. Fill the fuel tank completely and record
the initial odometer reading.
2. Each time you fill the fuel tank, record the amount of fuel added.
3. After at least three fill ups, fill the fuel tank and record the current odometer
reading.
4. Subtract your initial odometer reading from the current odometer reading.
5. Calculate fuel economy by dividing miles traveled by gallons used (For
Metric: Multiply liters used by 100, then
divide by kilometers traveled).
Keep a record for at least one month and
record the type of driving (city or highway).
This provides an accurate estimate of your
vehicle ’s fuel economy under current
driving conditions. Keeping records during
summer and winter will show how
temperature impacts fuel economy. In
general, your vehicle will use more fuel in
cold temperatures.

F650750 (TBC) , enUSA, Edition date: 201804, Second-Printing Fuel and Refueling
The information display shows a series of
messages about the amount of diesel
exhaust fluid available. A systems check
displays messages indicating the amount
of diesel exhaust fluid available or displays
a warning message indicating the
approximate distance remaining as the
fluid in the diesel exhaust fluid tank nears
empty. See Information Messages
(page 67). As the diesel exhaust fluid level
nears empty, the warning
symbol displays and a series of
tones and messages starting at
500 mi
(800 km) remaining before diesel exhaust
fluid is depleted. The warning symbol and
messages continue until you refill the
diesel exhaust fluid tank.
Continued driving without refilling results
in the following actions as required by the
California Air Resources Board (CARB) and
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA):
• Within a preset distance to empty,
speed is limited upon vehicle restart.
Prior to this occurring a message
appears in the information display.
• Further vehicle operation without
refilling the diesel exhaust fluid tank
causes the engine to enter an idle-only
condition. This only occurs upon vehicle
refueling or at an extended idle. A
message indicates the required actions
to resume normal operation. It is
required to add a minimum of
1.0 gal
(3.8 L) of diesel exhaust fluid to the
tank to exit the idle-only condition, but
your vehicle is still in the speed-limiting
mode until you refill the tank
completely.
Note: For either vehicle speed limiting or
idle-only condition, normal vehicle operation
resumes when you refill the diesel exhaust
fluid tank. Note:
When filling the diesel exhaust fluid
tank from empty, there may be a short delay
before detecting the increased level of fluid.
The increased level detection must occur
before your vehicle returns to full power.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid Guidelines
and Information
• Use only diesel exhaust fluid that
carries the American Petroleum
Institute (API) certified diesel exhaust
fluid trademark or ISO 22241.
• Do not put diesel exhaust fluid in the
diesel fuel tank. If this happens, do not
switch the ignition on. Drain the fuel
tank as soon as possible.
• Do not overfill the diesel exhaust fluid
tank.
• Diesel exhaust fluid is corrosive.
• Do not re-use the diesel exhaust fluid
container once it is emptied.
• Avoid spilling diesel exhaust fluid on
painted surfaces, carpeting or plastic
components. Immediately wipe away
any diesel exhaust fluid that has spilled
with a damp cloth and water. If it has
already crystallized, use warm water
and a sponge.
• Store diesel exhaust fluid out of direct
sunlight and in temperatures between
23°F (-5°C)
and 68°F (20°C).
• Diesel exhaust fluid freezes below 12°F
(-11°C)
.
• Do not store the diesel exhaust fluid
bottle in your vehicle. If it leaks it could
cause damage to interior components
or release an ammonia odor inside your
vehicle.
• Diesel exhaust fluid is non-flammable,
non-toxic, colorless and water-soluble
liquid.
