SVT HISTORY
The Ford Special Vehicle Team (SVT) was established in 1991 to polish
the Ford Oval by creating low-volume, factory-produced vehicles
designed for those select few whose idea of driving is a high-powered,
passionate experience — not just a means of getting from point A to
point B.
In a move to support this spirited enthusiasm, Ford Motor Company
carefully integrated the wide array of talent in the company into a small,
cross-functional group of engineers and product planners, housed
together under one roof with a common mission: to create vehicles
specifically designed to meet the unique needs and desires of the
knowledgeable driving enthusiast.
Each of nearly 150000 SVT vehicles produced since the 1993 model year
has been designed and developed with the four SVT Hallmarks in mind:
Performance, Substance, Exclusivity and Value. These hallmarks have
driven the SVT Mustang Cobra and the Cobra R, the SVT F-150
Lightning, the SVT Contour, the SVT Focus, Ford GT, Shelby GT500,
GT500KR and the F-150 SVT Raptor.
We are proud and passionate about what we do, and we’re glad you have
made us your choice.

OFF-ROAD MODE
Off road mode changes the calibrations of four systems on the vehicle to
enhance off road performance:
•Electronic locking differential (ELD)-Any speed thresholds for
the ELD are lifted. The ELD will remain locked up to the maximum
vehicle speed when engaged.
•AdvanceTrac–When off-road mode is engaged, the AdvanceTrac
settings are altered for optimized off-road performance.
•Transmission shifting and response-The transmission shift
schedule is altered for improved off road performance. Upshifts are
delayed and occur less frequently. This will provide the best possible
vehicle response and acceleration.
•Engine throttle calibration-The engine throttle calibration is
altered for improved off-road performance.
Note:Operating the vehicle in this mode does not guarantee that the
vehicle will not become stuck in sand, snow or mud, etc. It is the driver’s
responsibility to assess off-road situations and determine if the terrain is
passable.
Note:Tow/haul mode will be disabled when off-road mode is active. If
tow/haul mode is active, it will be disabled when off-road mode is active.
Enabling Off-Road Mode
WARNING:Off-road mode is specifically calibrated for off-road
driving conditions and should never be used on pavement.
To enter off-road mode the following conditions must be met:
•The vehicle must be traveling less than 5 mph (8 km/h)
•Your foot must be off of the accelerator pedal
Note:If any of the conditions are not met, the information display
screen will display the appropriate messages to guide the driver through
the proper operating procedures.

Whether accelerating or decelerating, once the desired descent speed is
reached, remove your feet from the pedals and the chosen vehicle speed
will be maintained.
See theInformation Displayschapter of yourOwner’s Manualfor hill
descent mode messages.
Disabling hill decent control
To disable hill decent control press the button located on the center
console a second time. A light on the button will turn off and a message
will appear indicating this feature has been disabled.
UPFITTER CONTROLS
The auxiliary switchboard on the
center console makes aftermarket
customization easier, with four
prewired switches attached to the
power distribution box for electrical
accessories.
These switches are labeledAUX 1,AUX 2,AUX 3andAUX 4. They
will only operate while the ignition is in the on position, whether the
engine is running or not. It is, however, recommended that the engine
remain running to maintain a battery charge when using the switches for
an extended duration or higher current draws. When switched on by the
operator they provide 10 amps, 15 amps or 30 amps of electrical battery
power for a variety of uses.
The switches control relays and
fuses that are located under the
hood in the auxiliary switch pass
through circuits. See the
Engine/Transmissionchapter of
this supplement for the underhood
overview location of this component.

HIGH SPEED OFF-ROADING
The off-road driving discussed thus far has focused on the type of events
typically encountered during slow speed off-road driving conditions. The
F-150 SVT Raptor provides excellent performance in a full size pick-up
truck during these slower speed conditions, but truly excels at higher
speed baja style off-road driving. High speed off-roading presents a
unique challenge, but extra care and caution should be taken before
engaging in this type of driving. If you plan on using the truck for severe,
high speed off-road use, the following is recommended:
•Equip your truck with the safety equipment used for the Stock-Full
Class as defined in the rule books for the Best in the Desert Racing
(www.bitd.com) and SCORE International Off-Road Racing
(www.score-international.com).
•Use personal safety equipment including a SNELL SA certified helmet
and approved neck restraint device.
•Before venturing off-road in unfamiliar areas at high speeds, do a low
speed reconnaissance run (“prerun”) to become aware of any
obstacles that you will encounter.
Ford SVT has engineered your F-150 Raptor for off-road use beyond
what is normal for a F-150. However, it can incur damage if driven
beyond its capabilities. Skid plates, shock guards and running boards
were designed to help limit damage to vital components and exterior
finishes, but cannot prevent all damage if driven in extreme off-road
conditions. Damage to skid plates, shock guards, running boards and
