PROTECTING THE
ENVIRONMENT
You must play your part in protecting the
environment. Correct vehicle usage and
the authorized disposal of waste, cleaning
and lubrication materials are significant
steps toward this aim.
NOISE POLLUTION CONTROL
In order to keep to the federal exterior
noise regulations, your vehicle may be
equipped with noise emission items.
Depending on your vehicle configuration,
it may have all or some of the following
items:
Air Intake System
Inspect the air cleaner. Do not alter its
location. Do not alter inlet and outlet
piping.
Body
Inspect wheel well splash shields, cab
shields and under hood insulation for
deterioration, dislocation and orientation.
Cooling System
•
Inspect the fan for blade damage. If
you find any damage, replace with the
recommended parts. Inspect for
fan-to-shroud interference and any
damage to shroud, such as cracks and
holes.
• Do not change fan ratio or alter fan
spacer dimensions and positions.
• Inspect fan clutch for proper operation.
Make sure the fan is disengaged when
cooling of the engine is not required.
• Inspect radiator shutters (if equipped)
for proper operation. The shutters
should be open during normal
operating temperatures. Engine
Valve covers and block covers damp-out
engine mechanical noise. If they need
replacing, make sure to replace them with
the recommended parts. Check for
mechanical isolations.
Transmission Enclosure
Inspect for cracks, holes and tears. Clean
any deposits, such as oil, dirt and stones.
Exhaust System
•
Inspect for leaks at various joint
connections and loose clamps.
• Perform a visual inspection for cracks
or holes in the muffler and tail pipe.
• Always use the recommended
replacement parts.
• Do not change the tail pipe elbow or
offset tail pipe orientation from the
standard position as originally received.
• To avoid abnormal changes in vehicle
sound levels, it is necessary for the
owner to perform inspections and
necessary maintenance at specified
intervals. See Scheduled
Maintenance (page 314).

WARNINGS
manufacturer. A safety seat that is
improperly installed or utilized, is
inappropriate for your child's height, age,
or weight or does not properly fit the child
may increase the risk of serious injury or
death. Never let a passenger hold a child on
his or her lap while your vehicle is
moving. The passenger cannot
protect the child from injury in a crash,
which may result in serious injury or death. Never use pillows, books, or towels
to boost a child. They can slide
around and increase the likelihood
of injury or death in a crash. WARNINGS
Always restrain an unoccupied child
seat or booster seat. These objects
may become projectiles in a crash or
sudden stop, which may increase the risk
of serious injury. Never place, or allow a child to place,
the shoulder belt under a child's arm
or behind the back because it
reduces the protection for the upper part
of the body and may increase the risk of
injury or death in a crash. To avoid risk of injury, do not leave
children or pets unattended in your
vehicle.

If the diesel particulate filter is near or at saturation, a message requesting
permission to initiate filter cleaning appears in the information display:
Action and Description
Message
Answer yes to this prompt and then follow the prompts
regarding exhaust position as needed to initiate Operator
Commanded Regeneration. Be sure to understand each
prompt. If you are not sure what is being asked by each
prompt, contact an authorized dealer. The display confirms
the operation has started and when it has finished. You can
also drive to clean the filter. See Active regeneration earlier
in this chapter.

Service now
Once Operator Commanded Regeneration
starts, the engine ’s rpm raises to
approximately 2000 rpm and the cooling
fan speed increases; you will hear a change
in audible sound due to the fan and engine
speed increase.
It is not necessary to open the hood on the
engine compartment. Once Operator
Commanded Regeneration is complete,
the engine rpm and fan returns to normal
idling. The exhaust system remains very
hot for several minutes even after
regeneration is complete. Do not reposition
the vehicle over materials that could burn
until the exhaust system has had sufficient
time to cool. Depending on the amount of
soot collected by the diesel particulate
filter, ambient temperature, and altitude,
Operator Commanded Regeneration lasts
approximately 30 minutes. Operator Commanded Regeneration
with Automatic Regeneration Control
(If Equipped)
If your vehicle is operated with significant
stationary operation, low speed drive
cycles less than 25 mph (40 km/h), short
drive cycles, drive time less than 15 minutes
or the vehicle does not fully warm up,
passive and active regeneration may not
sufficiently clean the diesel particulate
filter system. You can switch off automatic
regeneration until better driving conditions
are available, for example steady high
driving. You can then switch automatic
regeneration back on to clean the diesel
particulate filter.

Among those acts, which the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency may
presume to constitute tampering are the
acts listed below:
•
Removal of hood blanket, fender apron
absorbers, fender apron barriers,
underbody noise shields or acoustically
absorptive material.
• Tampering or rendering inoperative the
engine speed governor, to allow engine
speed to exceed manufacturer ’s
specifications.
The complexity of the diesel engine makes
it so the owner is discouraged from
attempting to perform maintenance other
than the services described in this Owner's
Manual.
If you experience difficulty starting the
engine, rough idling, excessive exhaust
smoke, a decrease in engine performance
or excess fuel consumption, perform the
following checks:
• A plugged or disconnected air inlet
system or engine air filter element.
• Water in the fuel filter and water
separator.
• A clogged fuel filter.
• Contaminated fuel.
• Air in the fuel system, due to loose
connections.
• An open or pinched sensor hose.
• Check engine oil level.
• Wrong fuel or oil viscosity for the
climatic conditions.
If these checks do not help you correct the
engine performance problem you are
experiencing, consult an authorized dealer. 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 lbs. (4,536
kg) GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating).
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 lbs. (4,536 kg) GVWR.
FUEL TANK SELECTOR
SWITCH (If Equipped)
Your vehicle has two fuel tanks. The fuel
in each fuel tank is independently used.
Use the switch on the instrument panel to
select the left-hand or right-hand fuel tank.
The fuel gauge indicates the remaining fuel
in the selected fuel tank. See
Gauges
(page 54).

Operation in Snow and Rain
Vehicle operation in heavy snowfall or
extreme rain conditions may feed
excessive amounts of snow or water into
the air intake system. This could plug the
air filter with snow and may cause the
engine to lose power and possibly shut
down.
We recommend the following actions after
operating your vehicle up to 199 mi
(320 km) in snowfall or extreme rain:
• Snow: At the earliest opportunity, open
the hood and clear all the snow and ice
from the air filter housing inlet (do not
remove the foam filter) and reset the
air filter restriction gauge.
Note: Removal of the foam filter degrades
your vehicle performance during snow and
hot weather conditions.
• Extreme rain: The air filter dries after
about 15– 30 minutes at highway
speeds. At the earliest opportunity,
open the hood and reset the air filter
restriction gauge.
DRIVING THROUGH WATER WARNING
Do not drive through flowing or deep
water as you may lose control of your
vehicle.
Note:
Driving through standing water can
cause vehicle damage.
Note: Engine damage can occur if water
enters the air filter.
Before driving through standing water,
check the depth. Never drive through water
that is higher than the bottom of the wheel
hubs. When driving through standing water, drive
very slowly and do not stop your vehicle.
Your brake performance and traction may
be limited. After driving through water and
as soon as it is safe to do so:
•
Lightly press the brake pedal to dry the
brakes and to check that they work.
• Check that the horn works.
• Check that the exterior lights work.
• Turn the steering wheel to check that
the steering power assist works.
Operation in Standing Water
Ingestion of water into the diesel engine
can result in immediate and severe
damage to the engine. If driving through
water, slow down to avoid splashing water
into the intake. If the engine stalls, and you
suspect ingestion of water into the engine,
do not try to restart the engine. Consult
your dealer for service immediately.
Your fuel tank vents to the atmosphere by
valves on top of the tank and through the
fuel cap. If water reaches the top of the
tank, the valves may pull water into the
fuel tank. Water in the fuel can cause
performance issues and damage the fuel
injection system.

ENGINE OIL CHECK - 6.7L
DIESEL
Because it is normal to add some oil
between oil changes, check your engine oil
level each time you stop for fuel. To check
the engine oil level consistently and
accurately, the following procedure is
recommended:
1. Have engine at normal operating temperature (at least into the NORMAL
range on the engine coolant
temperature gauge). 2.
Park the vehicle on a level surface, then
turn off the engine and open the hood.
3. Allow at least 20 minutes after engine
shutdown to ensure that the oil
contained in the upper parts of the
engine has returned to the oil pan.
4. Protecting yourself from engine heat, pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean and
reinsert fully.
5. Read oil level on both sides of dipstick
and use highest level (reading) for the
actual engine oil level. 6. Maintain the oil level within the
crosshatch area on the dipstick by
adding oil as required. Do not overfill
the oil past the maximum line as
depicted by the arrow.
Engine Oil Specifications
To help achieve acceptable engine
performance and durability, it is important
that only engine oils of good quality are
used in your diesel engine and it is changed
at the recommended interval. For normal
or severe service, use Motorcraft® oil or an
equivalent oil conforming to Ford
specifications as listed in the Capacities
and Specifications chapter. See
Capacities and Specifications (page
256). It is important to use these oils
because they are compatible with the
emission control equipment of your vehicle
to meet the more stringent emission
standards.
