GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING: Extended idling at highengine speeds can produce very hightemperatures in the engine and exhaustsystem, creating the risk of fire or otherdamage.
WARNING: Do not park, idle ordrive your vehicle on dry grass or otherdry ground cover. The emission systemheats up the engine compartment andexhaust system, creating the risk of fire.
WARNING: Do not start the enginein a closed garage or in other enclosedareas. Exhaust fumes are toxic. Alwaysopen the garage door before you startthe engine. Failure to follow thisinstruction could result in personal injuryor death.
WARNING: Exhaust leaks mayresult in entry of harmful and potentiallylethal fumes into the passengercompartment. If you smell exhaustfumes inside your vehicle, have yourvehicle inspected immediately. Do notdrive if you smell exhaust fumes.
The powertrain control system meets allCanadian interference-causing equipmentstandard requirements regulating theimpulse electrical field or radio noise.
Note:If you use your vehicle regularly abovethe altitude of 7,500 ft (2,286 m) and underthe temperature of -4.0°F (-20°C), it isrecommended to use the alternative engineoil. See Capacities and Specifications(page 291).
If you disconnect the battery, your vehiclecould exhibit some unusual drivingcharacteristics for approximately 5 mi(8 km) after you reconnect it. This isbecause the engine management systemmust realign itself with the engine. You candisregard any unusual drivingcharacteristics during this period.
When you start the engine, avoid pressingthe accelerator pedal before and duringoperation.
If you operate your vehicle in a heavy snowstorm or blowing snow conditions, theengine air induction could become partiallyclogged with snow and ice. If this occurs,the engine could experience a significantreduction in power output. At the earliestopportunity, clear all the snow and iceaway from the air induction inlet.

Guarding Against Exhaust Fumes
WARNING: Exhaust leaks mayresult in entry of harmful and potentiallylethal fumes into the passengercompartment. If you smell exhaustfumes inside your vehicle, have yourvehicle inspected immediately. Do notdrive if you smell exhaust fumes.
Important Ventilating Information
If you stop your vehicle and leave theengine idling for long periods of time, werecommend you either open the windowsat least 1 in (3 cm) or set the climatecontrol to outside air.
STARTING A DIESEL ENGINE
Read all starting instructions carefullybefore you start your vehicle.
The 6.7L diesel engine incorporates a delaybetween a crank command and starterengagement to crank the engine. Thisdelay ensures robust starting performancein all environmental conditions includingextreme cold. The crank command isinitiated by the operator by turning theignition key. The delay varies with enginecoolant temperature. There is no delay forhot coolant temperature. The delayincreases at colder coolant temperatures.Maximum delay of 2.5 seconds isexperienced below -13.0°F (-25°C).
Diesel Engine Fast Start Glow PlugSystem
The diesel engine glow system consists of:
•Eight glow plugs, one per cylinder.
•Glow plug control module.
•Engine coolant temperature sensor.
•Barometric pressure sensor.
•Environmental temperature sensor.
The powertrain and glow plug controlmodules electronically control the glowplug system. After you switch the ignitionon, the glow plug control moduleimmediately energizes the glow plugs. Theglow plug control module, using the enginecoolant temperature, barometric pressuresensor and environmental temperaturesensor, determines how long the glowplugs stay energized. The required time forthe glow plugs to be energized decreasesas the coolant temperature, barometricpressure and environmental temperatureincrease.
Before starting the engine, check thefollowing:
•Make sure all occupants fasten theirseatbelt.
•Make sure the headlamps andelectrical accessories are off.
•Make sure the parking brake is on.
•Make sure the transmission is in park(P) or neutral (N).
•Turn the ignition key to the on position.
Note:Do not press the accelerator duringstarting.
1.Fully press the brake pedal.
2.Turn the key to the start position tostart the engine. Release the key whenthe engine starts.

Cold Weather Starting
WARNING: Do not use startingfluid, for example ether, in the air intakesystem. Such fluid could causeimmediate explosive damage to theengine and possible personal injury.
WARNING: Do not mix diesel withgasoline, gasohol or alcohol. This couldcause an explosion.
We recommend using the engine blockheater for starting when the ambienttemperature is at or below -9°F (-23°C).See Engine Block Heater (page 105).
When operating in cold weather, you canuse Motorcraft® cetane improvers ornon-alcohol-based cetane improvers froma reputable manufacturer as needed.
Do not crank the engine for more than 10seconds as starter damage may occur. Ifthe engine fails to start, turn the key to theoff position and wait 30 seconds beforetrying again.
Your vehicle may come with a coldweather starting strategy that preventssevere engine damage by assisting inengine lubrication warm-up. In extremelycold ambient temperatures, this strategyactivates and prevents the acceleratorpedal use for 30 seconds after startingyour vehicle. A message appears in theinformation display as your vehicle warmsup. By not allowing the accelerator pedaluse, the engine oil can properly lubricatethe bearings preventing engine damagedue to lack of proper lubrication. After the30 second warm-up period, theaccelerator pedal is operational again anda message appears informing you that yourvehicle is ready to drive.
When starting the engine in extremely coldtemperatures, for example -15°F (-26°C),we recommend you allow the engine toidle for several minutes before driving yourvehicle.
Illuminates when you switch theignition on as part of thepre-starting system.
1.Turn the key to the on position withoutturning the key to the start position. Donot start the engine until the wait tostart indicator turns off.
2.When the wait to start indicator turnsoff, turn the key to the start positionand release the key as soon as theengine starts. Once the engine starts,the glow plugs may remain on for aperiod. If you attempt to start theengine before the glow plug activationtime ends, but it fails to start, reset theglow plugs by turning the key to the offposition.
3.Once the engine starts, allow it to idlefor about 15 seconds. This is to protectthe engine. Do not increase enginespeed until the oil pressure gaugeindicates normal pressure.
SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE
Allow the engine to idle for three to fiveminutes before shutting it down. The largerthe engine, the greater the need is for thisidling period.
Note:Try to limit engine idle to 10 minutes.Excessive idling reduces fuel economy.
