You will receive a letter of explanation if your application does not
qualify for Board review.
Oral presentations
If you would like to make an oral presentation, indicate YES to question
6 on the application. While it is your right to make an oral presentation
before the Board, this is not a requirement and the Board will decide the
case whether or not an oral presentation is made. An oral presentation
may be requested by the Board as well.
Making a decision
Board members review all available information related to each
complaint, including oral presentations, and arrive at a fair and impartial
decision. Board review may be terminated at any time by either party.
Every effort is made to decide the case within 40 days of the date that
all requested information is received by the Board. Since the Board
generally meets once a month, it may take longer for the Board to

form on which to accept or reject the Board's decision. The decisions of
the Board are binding on Ford (and, in some cases, on the dealer) but

on an inconspicuous part of the leather as cleaners may darken
the leather. Certain stains, such as coffee, ketchup, mustard,
orange juice and oil-based products are especially difficult to
remove, even after treatment with cleaners and conditioners. If
your leather stains, it will stay in the leather for life.
Do not use household cleaning products, alcohol solutions,
solvents or cleaners intended for rubber, vinyl or plastics.
CONDITIONING
Conditioning is a vital step in maintaining the leather interior over time.
Condition the leather twice yearly in order to replenish lost oils and
revitalize the aroma, suppleness and resilience.
Apply your first conditioning treatment within six months of taking
delivery of your King Ranch F-150 SuperCrew. Conditioning every six
months thereafter will lessen the effects of drying out and fading.
In order to condition the leather seats, first clean the surfaces using the
steps outlined in theCleaningsection. After you have allowed the leather
to dry completely and return to its original color, shake the bottle of King
Ranch F-150 Leather Conditioner thoroughly and apply a nickel-sized
amount to a clean, dry cloth. Rub the conditioner into leather until it
disappears. Allow the conditioner to dry and repeat the process for the
entire interior. If a film appears, wipe off film with a dry, clean cloth.
SCRATCHES
In order to lessen the appearance of certain scratches and other wear
marks, apply King Ranch F-150 Leather Conditioner on the affected area
following the same instructions as in theConditioningsection.
Additional bottles of King Ranch F-150 Leather Conditioner are available
at the King Ranch Saddle Shop. Visit the Web site at
www.krsaddleshop.com, or telephone (in the United States)
1±800±282±KING (5464). If you are unable to obtain King Ranch F-150
Leather Conditioner, use another premium leather conditioner.
CLEANING THE INSIDE WINDOWS
Use Ultra Clear Spray Glass Cleaner (E4AZ-19C507±AA) for the inside
windows if they become fogged.
To clean, use two lint-free, soft towels, folded into a pad-shape. Mist the
glass completely with cleaner, and use one of the towels to evenly agitate
the surface. Use the other towel to remove the residue.

For maximum vehicle performance, keep the following information in
mind when adding accessories or equipment to your vehicle:
²When adding accessories, equipment, passengers and luggage to your
vehicle, do not exceed the total weight capacity of the vehicle or of
the front or rear axle (GVWR or GAWR as indicated on the Safety
compliance certification label). Consult your dealer for specific weight

²The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Canadian Radio

use or are not properly installed. When operated, such systems may
cause the engine to stumble or stall or cause the transmission to be
damaged or operate improperly. In addition, such systems may be
damaged or their performance may be affected by operating your
vehicle. (Citizens band [CB] transceivers, garage door openers and
other transmitters with outputs of five watts or less will not ordinarily
affect your vehicle's operation.)
²Ford cannot assume responsibility for any adverse effects or damage
that may result from the use of such equipment.
