If you exceed the load limit, the rear air suspension may not operate.
The air suspension shut-off switch is
located on the left side of the trunk.
If this switch is in the off position,
the rear air suspension will not
operate.
WARNING:On vehicles
equipped with air
suspension, turn off the air
suspension switch prior to jacking,
hoisting or towing your vehicle.
Normal vehicle operation does not
require any action by the driver.
TRACTION-LOK™ AXLE (IF EQUIPPED)
This axle provides added traction on slippery surfaces, particularly when
one wheel is on a poor traction surface. Under normal conditions, the
Traction-Lok™ axle functions like a standard rear axle.
Extended use of other than the manufacturer’s specified size tires on a
Traction-Lok™ rear axle could result in a permanent reduction in
effectiveness. This loss of effectiveness does not affect normal driving
and should not be noticeable to the driver.
BRAKE-SHIFT INTERLOCK
This vehicle is equipped with a brake-shift interlock feature that prevents
the gearshift lever from being moved from P (Park) when the ignition is
in the on position unless brake pedal is pressed.
If you cannot move the gearshift lever out of P (Park) with ignition in
the on position and the brake pedal pressed, it is possible that a fuse has
blown or the vehicle’s brakelamps are not operating properly. Refer to
Fuses and relaysin theRoadside Emergencieschapter.
If the fuse is not blown, perform the following procedure:
1. Apply the parking brake, turn the ignition to the accessory position.

The mating connector is provided on the end of the power distribution
connector. The vehicle modifier can either purchase pins for the mating
connector and install them on the wires before they are inserted into the
connector, thereby avoiding any splicing, or purchase an optional power
pigtail for the interface. The power pigtail (P/N 14A411) plugs into the
power distribution connector and provides blunt cut wires ready for
splicing by the vehicle modifier.
See thePolice Interceptor Modifier Guidefor more details.
Rear power point - police
The rear power point is a battery access port for police auxiliary equipment
mounted in the trunk. It is capable of supplying 80 amps of battery power.
The front power distribution box (PDB) contains two 50 amp fuses, which
protects the power point. Battery access is via two studs contained in an
enclosure, mounted in the trunk, on the right side fender support. The
terminal with the red wires is the battery positive, and the terminal with
the black wire is the ground. Remove both fuses in the front PDB before
removing the cover to the rear power point. Ensure load devices can be
turned off, and are switched off when reinserting fuses.
WARNING:Under no circumstance should the rear power point
cover be removed without first pulling the two fuses in the front
power distribution box. Removing cover without pulling fuses could
result in an electrical hazard, and result in personal injury. Shut off
load devices before inserting fuses.

Aftermarket equipment installation
Ford has developed aPolice Interceptor Modifier Guideto assist the
vehicle modifier in safely installing police equipment into the vehicle.
The guide provides detailed information on the location of key vehicle
components that must be untouched and warnings for other areas where
caution must be exercised. The Modifier Guide is available for
downloading, free of charge, from www.fleet.ford.com.
When installing aftermarket equipment, avoid using fasteners that are too
long for the application or are in an area which might damage vehicle
components, including wiring, brake lines, fuel tank and lines, powertrain
components, exhaust system and suspension.
Also, do not make electrical connections to vehicle electrical systems not
specifically designed for aftermarket equipment installations. Refer to the
“Wiring Diagram Manual” for electrical system information.
Do not install any components into the powertrain control module
(PCM) or PCM harness. Connecting into this system may affect engine
and transmission operation.
As an example: connection of aftermarket electrical equipment into the
brake light circuit or any other circuit which is connected to the PCM,
anti-lock brake computer, airbag system or any other vehicle system
which will cause vehicle malfunction.
WARNING:Contact during a crash with aftermarket equipment
in a vehicle can result in a personal injury.
WARNING:Installation of prisoner barriers may increase the
risk of injury to front seat occupants if the vehicle is impacted
from the rear at high speeds. This risk should be balanced, by the law
enforcement agency, against the risk of injury to the Officer associated
with prisoner transport.
Trunk Pack™ and trunk loading
WARNING:Ford recommends that police equipment be both
secured and laterally aligned. Hard, stiff or sharp objects,
especially when not secured or properly located, pose a risk to the fuel
tank and back seat occupants in the event of a high speed rear impact.
After-market organizers that do not adequately deform in rear-impacts
can themselves become injury-producing objects. When locating,
securing and mounting police equipment, please review theTrunk
Equipment Mounting Guide,available on the www.cvpi.com website,
which provides recommended fastener mounting types and locations.

WARNING:Following the trunk packing considerations, also on
the www.fleet.ford.com website, is the most meaningful method
of reducing risk. If your department practice is inconsistent with the
Trunk Packing Considerations, then Ford suggests that you consider
purchasing an optional drop-in Trunk Pack™ to further reduce the risk
of injury resulting from police equipment pushing forward into the
back seat and/or fuel tank in the event of a high-speed rear impact.
The Trunk Pack™ provides more flexibility to officers transporting
police equipment than the trunk packing considerations.
To improve trunk packing by police agencies, Ford has made the
following items available:
•Trunk Pack™ – a drop-in box with a tough plastic shell made of high
density Polyethylene (HDPE). It both aligns police equipment laterally
in the trunk and utilizes a puncture resistant lining on the forward
side of the box to reduce the risk of police equipment penetrating into
the fuel tank and/or back seat in high-speed rear impacts.
•Trunk Equipment Mounting Guide – an outline pattern with
recommended fastener mounting locations in the trunk. The guide can
be found in thePolice Interceptor Modifier Guideand on the
Internet at www.fleet.ford.com.
•Trunk packing considerations – the following guidelines are offered to
reduce the risk of unique police equipment items pushing through the
fuel tank and/or back seat (see our www.fleet.ford.com website for
more details).
Trunk Packing Considerations
A slogan has been developed to increase police agency awareness of the
importance of trunk packing.

Equipment categories and placement
It is recognized that a wide variety of equipment is carried in the trunks
of police vehicles as noted above. This section addresses the inherent
risks of various types of equipment in the event of a high-speed rear
impact.
Crown Victoria Severe Duty

2010 Crown Victoria(cro)
Owners Guide, 2nd Printing
USA(fus)

This information is divided into three categories:
•Carrying not recommended
•Carry with caution
•Low risk items
WARNING: Carrying not recommended – The following
items have been observed in police vehicles and should
not be transported in a vehicle trunk– containers with gasoline,
loose ammunition, loose flares, loose fire extinguisher(s), loose 4-point
lug wrench, loose crowbars, loose axes and other loose equipment with
potential puncture capability in high speed rear end collisions.
Carry with caution –These items will require special packing or
mounting consideration and possibly use of the Trunk Pack™ as an
additional level of safety. Examples include (with proposed orientation):
fire extinguisher (fixed), lug wrench 4–point (fixed - vertical), rolotape
measuring wheel (fixed - vertical), safety flares (lateral orientation – in a
container), stop stick (lateral - mount on deck lid inner panel), shovel
(lateral - place at rear of trunk), shotgun and rifle (lateral - store in
case), baton (lateral - place at rear of trunk), ammunition (container).
Flares should be placed in a protective storage container (preferably soft
sided plastic). Flares with spikes attached should be laterally oriented in
the trunk area.
1.Spare tire special considerations –The safest location for the
spare tire, jack and lug wrench is the production location on the forward
package shelf above the rear axle. If unable to mount there, the next
safest location for the spare tire is mounted vertically inside the Trunk
Pack™ using the J-bolt attachment device provided with the Trunk
Pack™. The jack and lug wrench should be stored in the rearward
compartment of the Trunk Pack™.
2.Electronic Equipment –The safest location for the electronic
equipment is on the trunk forward package shelf. Some equipment can
be mounted in the side shelf areas, but it must not protrude into the fuel
tank area in a crash (noted in Trunk Equipment Mounting Guide). The
optional Complete Police Prep Package is available to facilitate packaging
of electronic components with a sliding tray for the forward package
shelf and side compartments in the right and left shelf area. All
equipment should be located and mounted using theTrunk Equipment
Mounting Guidefor proper positioning of fasteners. This guide can be
accessed on the www.fleet.ford.com website. The sliding tray can also be
used, depending on size, to properly store parts with rigid and sharp
edges.

3.Ammunition –The safest location for ammunition is the forward
package shelf and on the side shelves. It is recommended that a plastic
storage container be utilized and mounted using theTrunk Mounting
Equipment Guidefor proper fastener locations. It is also recommended
that ammunition remain in the purchased container and be placed in a
safe storage container.
Low risk items –These items are soft in feel and pose a low risk of
trunk wall, rear seat area, and fuel tank puncture. Examples are: a soft
camera case, biohazard kit in plastic boxes, gloves, safety rope, tow
strap, traffic cones & sleeves, rain gear, riot gear (soft), emergency
blankets, bullet resistant vest, tie straps, cloth tape, garment bags, first
responder kit, Res-Q-Flo mask (placed in garment bag), fuses (plastic
container), briefcase, notebooks, spray bottles, helmet, and jumper
cables. It is not essential but recommended that the Trunk Pack™ can
be considered for organization of low risk items, especially if mixed with
“Carry With Caution”items.
BODY
Fire suppression system (if equipped)
Your vehicle may be equipped with an optional fire suppression system.
The fire suppression system is designed to help reduce the risk of injury
in high-speed rear impacts. The fire suppression system deploys
chemicals designed to slow the spread of fire or potentially extinguish a
fire, thereby providing more time for occupants to escape from a crashed
vehicle.
The fire suppression system is mounted beneath the vehicle and
attached to the frame above and forward of the fuel tank and rear axle.
The fire system control module is mounted inside the passenger
compartment centered underneath the rear seat cushion. The system is
designed to deploy automatically after sensing a high-speed/high-energy
rear end impact.
There is a covered manual activation switch mounted in a console on the
headliner between the visors that can be used by vehicle occupants to
manually deploy the system. The fire suppression system can be
manually deployed any time the key or engine is turned on by pushing
the button underneath the cover. The button can be accessed three
ways:
1. Pushing on the cover will release the cover latch, allowing the door to
swing open and expose the button;
2. The cover can be pulled open;
