Your vehicle's rear axle is filled with a synthetic rear axle lubricant and is
considered lubricated for life. These lubricants do not need to be
checked or changed unless a leak is suspected, service is required or the
axle assembly has been submerged in water. The axle lubricant should
be changed any time the rear axle has been submerged in water.
3Ensure the correct automatic transmission fluid is used. Transmission
fluid requirements are indicated on the dipstick or on the dipstick
handle. MERCONtand MERCONtV are not interchangeable. DO NOT
mix MERCONtand MERCONtV. Refer to your Scheduled Maintenance
Guide to determine the correct service interval.

OCTANE RECOMMENDATIONS
Your vehicle is designed to use
ªPremiumº unleaded gasoline with
an (R+M)/2 octane rating of 91 or
higher for optimum performance.
The use of gasolines with lower
octane ratings may degrade performance. We do not recommend the use
of gasolines labeled as ªPremiumº in high altitude areas that are sold
with octane ratings of less than 91.
If your engine knocks under any driving conditions while you are using
fuel with the recommended octane rating, see your dealer or a qualified
service technician to prevent any engine damage.
WHEELS AND TIRES
Tires295/45 ZR 18 BSW tires
WheelsSVT-Signature style, 18 in x 9.5 in aluminum 5-spoke wheels
TIRE ROTATION
²Unidirectional tire rotation
For vehicles equipped with
unidirectional tires and full-size
spare, your vehicle can be driven
with the unidirectional full-size
spare, rotating counter to the
directional arrow on the tire
sidewall.
Your unidirectional full-size spare
tire is rotated for wear balance. Best
performance may be achieved by
remounting the tire to the wheel, if
necessary, to permit tire rotation
with the directional arrow on the
tire sidewall.
SPARE TIRE AND WHEEL
Your vehicle is equipped a 235/70R-16 spare tire on a steel wheel rim.
This is for temporary use only. Replace this spare tire with a repaired
road tire as soon as possible.

A WORD ABOUT WARRANTY COVERAGE
The F±150 Lightning carries the same warranty coverage as other Ford
F-150 models. This information is covered in its entirety in the Ford
Motor Company Warranty Guide.
The F±150 Lightning or any SVT can be serviced under warranty at any
Ford-Lincoln-Mercury dealer nationwide.
SVT does not recommend modifying or racing our vehicles, as they are
designed and built to be driven as delivered from the factory. The Ford
Motor Company Warranty Guide discusses the installation of aftermarket
parts and their effect on warranty coverage as follows:
Repairs are not reimbursable under warranty when:
²ªThe repairs are required because of abuse, misuse, racing, fire,
negligence, accident, modification or a natural disaster.º
²ªThe repairs are required due to installation of a non-Ford part.º
