Front Fog Lamp Indicator
It illuminates when you switch
the front fog lamps on.
Headlamp High Beam Indicator It illuminates when you switch
the headlamp high beam on.
Hill Descent (If Equipped) Illuminates when hill descent is
switched on.
Hood Ajar Displays when the ignition is on
and the hood is not completely
closed.
Liftgate Ajar Warning Lamp It illuminates when you switch
the ignition on and remains on if
the liftgate is open.
Low Fuel Level Warning Lamp If it illuminates when you are
driving, refuel as soon as
possible.
Low Tire Pressure Warning Lamp Illuminates when your tire
pressure is low. If the lamp
remains on with the engine
running or when driving, check your tire
pressure as soon as possible.
It also illuminates momentarily when you
switch the ignition on to confirm the lamp
is functional. If it does not illuminate when
you switch the ignition on, or begins to
flash at any time, have the system checked
as soon as possible. Oil Pressure Warning Lamp It illuminates when you switch
the ignition on.
If it illuminates when the engine
is running this indicates a condition that
requires service. Stop your vehicle as soon
as it is safe to do so and switch the engine
off. Check the engine oil level. If the oil
level is sufficient, this indicates a condition
that requires service. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
See
Engine Oil Check (page 337).
Powertrain Malfunction/Reduced
Power/Electronic Throttle Control Illuminates when the powertrain
or the four-wheel drive system
has detected a condition that
requires service. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
Service Engine Soon If it illuminates when the engine
is running, this indicates a
concern. The On-Board
Diagnostics system has detected a
condition that requires service. Have the
system checked as soon as possible.
Increased exhaust gas temperatures could
damage the catalytic converter or other
vehicle components. Drive in a moderate
fashion (avoid heavy acceleration and
deceleration) and have your vehicle
immediately serviced. If it flashes, engine
misfire could be occurring.
It illuminates when you switch the ignition
on prior to engine start to check the bulb
and to indicate whether your vehicle is
ready for Inspection and Maintenance
(I/M) testing.

Normally, it illuminates until the engine is
cranked and automatically turns off if no
concerns are present. However, if after 15
seconds it flashes eight times, this
indicates that your vehicle is not ready for
Inspection and Maintenance (I/M) testing.
See Catalytic Converter (page 200).
Stability Control and Traction
Control Indicator Flashes during operation.
If it does not illuminate when you
switch the ignition on, or remains
on when the engine is running, this
indicates a concern. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
Note: The system turns off if there is a
concern.
See
Using Stability Control (page 225).
Stability Control and Traction
Control Off Warning Lamp It illuminates when you switch
the system off.
Tow Haul Indicator Illuminates when the tow/haul
feature has been activated. If the
light flashes steadily, have the
system serviced immediately. Damage to
the transmission could occur.

•
Incorrect fuel for climatic conditions.
• Incorrect engine oil viscosity for
climactic conditions.
Note: Some vehicles have a lifetime fuel
filter that is integrated with the fuel tank.
Regular maintenance or replacement is not
needed.
Note: If these checks do not help you
correct the concern, have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
Noise Emissions Warranty,
Prohibited Tampering Acts and
Maintenance
On January 1, 1978, Federal regulation
became effective governing the noise
emission on trucks over 10,000 lb
(4,536 kg) Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR). The preceding statements
concerning prohibited tampering acts and
maintenance, and the noise warranty
found in the Warranty Guide, are
applicable to complete chassis cabs over
10,000 lb (4,536 kg)
GVWR.
CATALYTIC CONVERTER WARNING:
Do not park, idle or
drive your vehicle on dry grass or other
dry ground cover. The emission system
heats up the engine compartment and
exhaust system, creating the risk of fire. WARNING:
The normal operating
temperature of the exhaust system is
very high. Never work around or attempt
to repair any part of the exhaust system
until it has cooled. Use special care when
working around the catalytic converter.
The catalytic converter heats up to a very
high temperature after only a short
period of engine operation and stays hot
after the engine is switched off. WARNING:
Exhaust leaks may
result in entry of harmful and potentially
lethal fumes into the passenger
compartment. If you smell exhaust
fumes inside your vehicle, have your
vehicle inspected immediately. Do not
drive if you smell exhaust fumes.
Your vehicle has various emission control
components and a catalytic converter that
enables it to comply with applicable
exhaust emission standards.
To make sure that the catalytic converter
and other emission control components
continue to work properly:
• Do not crank the engine for more than
10 seconds at a time.
• Do not run the engine with a spark plug
lead disconnected.
• Do not push-start or tow-start your
vehicle. Use booster cables. See Jump
Starting the Vehicle
(page 314).
• Use only the specified fuel listed.
• Do not switch the ignition off when your
vehicle is moving.
• Avoid running out of fuel.
• Have the items listed in scheduled
maintenance information performed
according to the specified schedule.
Note: Resulting component damage may
not be covered by the vehicle Warranty.
The scheduled maintenance items listed
in scheduled maintenance information are
essential to the life and performance of
your vehicle and to its emissions system.
If you use anything other than Ford,
Motorcraft or Ford-authorized parts for
maintenance replacements or for service
of components affecting emission control,
such non-Ford parts should be equivalent
to genuine Ford Motor Company parts in
performance and durability.
