Water in fuel (if equipped)
During refueling it is possible for
water-contaminated diesel fuel to be
pumped into your fuel tank. Your
vehicle fuel system is equipped with
a fuel filter/water separator to
remove water from the fuel. The
water in fuel indicator light illuminates when the fuel filter/water
separator has a significant quantity of water, or when the ignition key is
switched to the START position. If the light illuminates when the engine
is running, stop the vehicle as soon as safely possible, shut off the engine
and drain the filter bowl. Allowing water to stay in the system could
result in extensive damage to, or failure of, the fuel injection system.
To drain the fuel filter/water separator (refer toMaintenance and Care
section for procedure). Rotate the valve at the bottom of the filter
assembly allowing water to drain from the system. Close the valve upon
completion.
Do not drain water separator while engine is running. Fuel may
ignite if separator is drained while engine is running or vehicle is
moving.
Check trans (Allison automatic transmission)
The lamp will illuminate for several
seconds after the ignition is turned
to the ON position. Illumination of
this light indicates that a problem
has been detected and shifting may
be restricted. Depending upon the
severity of the problem, the read-out digit on the shifter display may be
blank. Operation may continue in order or reach service assistance. The
ECU may not respond to shift selector requests, since operating
limitations are being placed on the transmission, i.e. upshifts and
downshifts may be restricted. Direction changes will not occur.
Refer to the Transnission Operator's Manual for more information.

GAUGES
Fuel gauge
Displays approximately how much
fuel is in the fuel tank (when the
key is in the ON position). The fuel
gauge may vary slightly when the
vehicle is in motion or after
refueling. The ignition should be in
the OFF position while the vehicle is
being refueled. When the gauge first
indicates empty, there is a small
amount of reserve fuel in the tank.
When refueling the vehicle from an empty indication, the amount of fuel
that can be added will be less than the advertised capacity due to the
reserve fuel.
Engine coolant temperature gauge
Indicates the temperature of the
engine coolant. At normal operating
temperature, the needle remains
within the normal area (the area
between the ªHº and ªCº). If it
enters the red section, the engine is
overheating. Stop the vehicle as
soon as safely possible, switch off
the engine immediately and let the
engine cool. Refer toEngine
coolantin theMaintenance and
carechapter.

Replacing lost transmitters
If a remote transmitter has been lost
and you would like to remove it
from the vehicle's memory, or you
would like to purchase additional
remote transmitters and have them
programmed to your vehicle:
²Takeallyour vehicle's
transmitters to your dealer for
programming, or
²Perform the programming
procedure yourself
Programming remote transmitters
It is necessary to haveall(maximum of four Ð original and/or new) of
your remote transmitters available prior to beginning this procedure.
To program the transmitters yourself:
²Place the key in the ignition and
turn from 2 (LOCK) to 3 (OFF)
and cycle between 3 (OFF) and
4(ON) eight times in rapid
succession (within 10 seconds)
with the eighth turn ending in the
4 (ON) position. The doors will
lock/unlock to confirm that
programming mode has been
entered.
²Within 20 seconds, program a remote transmitter by pressing any
button on a transmitter. The doors will lock/unlock to confirm that the
remote transmitter has been programmed. (If more than 20 seconds
pass before pressing a remote transmitter button, the programming
mode will exit and the procedure will have to be repeated.)
²Repeat the previous step to program additional remote transmitters.
The doors will lock/unlock to confirm that each remote transmitter has
been programmed.
²When you have completed programming the remote transmitters, turn
the ignition to 3 (OFF) or wait 20 seconds. Again the doors will
lock/unlock to confirm programming has been completed.

Replacing the battery
The remote transmitter is powered by one coin type three-volt lithium
battery CR2032 or equivalent. Typical operating range will allow you to
be up to 10 meters (33 feet) away from your vehicle. A decrease in
operating range can be caused by:
²weather conditions
²nearby radio towers
²structures around the vehicle
²other vehicles parked next to the vehicle
To replace the battery:
1. Twist a thin coin between the two
halves of the transmitter near the
key ring. DO NOT TAKE THE
FRONT PART OF THE
TRANSMITTER APART.
2. Place the positive (+) side of new
battery in the same orientation.
Refer to the diagram inside the
transmitter unit.
3. Snap the two halves back
together.
Replacement of the battery willnotcause the remote transmitter to
become deprogrammed from your vehicle. The remote transmitter should
operate normally after battery replacement.

Power-take off operation (PTO) with a manual transmission
Transmission-mounted power take-off units are available for local
installation on Ford vehicles. See your Body Builder's Layout Book for
restrictions on use and installation of power take-off units.
To engage the PTO unit, stop the vehicle and place the transmission
control in neutral. Depress the clutch and allow the gears to stop
rotating, then engage the PTO unit. The PTO can also be selected with
the transmission in gear as long as the clutch is depressed.
When operating the PTO unit with the vehicle stationary, first set the
parking brake (chock the wheels if the vehicle is on a hill or other
unlevel surface).
DRIVING WITH AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, IF EQUIPPED
Allison automatic transmission
Do not allow your vehicle to coast in N (Neutral). Transmission
braking is not available in N (Neutral). Allowing the vehicle to
coast in N (Neutral) could result in loss of vehicle control and severe
transmission damage.
The Allison automatic transmissions are a torque converter type, full
power shifting and fully automatic. They also have the added flexibility
of manually selecting and holding in the lower drive ranges which permit
the drive selection of the most suitable gear range to match varying road
and load conditions. To prevent destructive overspeeding of the engine,
the hold feature is not infinite, resulting in upshifts from the hold range
to the next higher range at some speed above the no-load governed
speed of the engine.
Allison AT-545
These transmissions have no P (Park) position. Before leaving
the driver's seat, always shift into N (Neutral) and set the
parking brake. Shut off the engine and remove your ignition key.
Always use wheel chocks for hilly or off-road parking. Unexpected and
possibly sudden vehicle movement may occur if these precautions are
not taken.
This transmission provides four forward speeds and one reverse range.
Driving
131

R (Reverse)
Use this position to back the vehicle. Completely stop the vehicle before
shifting from R (Reverse) to any forward gear (1, 2, 3 or D). The reverse
warning signal will sound when the selector is in R (Reverse). Reverse
has only one gear and provides the greatest gear reduction.
N (Neutral)
Place the selector in N (Neutral) before starting the engine. Shift to N
(Neutral) and set the parking brake any time the engine is to be running
while the operator is not at the controls. The engine should be at idle
speed when any shift from N (Neutral) to a drive range is made.
D (Drive-Normal driving position)
The transmission starts in first gear and automatically shifts through
second, third and fourth depending on load and speed demands. This
range is used for highway driving under normal conditions.
3 and 2 (Third and Second)
Use these ranges when road, load or traffic conditions require a lower
gear. These ranges provide greater engine braking than D (Drive). When
conditions are improved that no longer require these lower gears, shift
back to D (Drive).
1 (First)
The transmission has to be manually shifted into 1 (First) and will not
shift into a higher gear. This range is used for extra heavy loads or where
maximum reduction is required.
Allison MD Series transmissions
These transmissions have no P (Park) position. Before leaving
the driver's seat, always shift into N (Neutral) and set the
parking brake. Shut off the engine and remove your ignition key.
Always use wheel chocks for hilly or off-road parking. Unexpected and
possibly sudden vehicle movement may occur if these precautions are
not taken.
These transmissions are electronically controlled and have a push button
shifter. MD transmissions are available in five- or six-speed driving
ranges.

These transmissions have no P (Park) position. Before leaving
the driver's seat, always shift into N (Neutral) and set the
parking brake. Shut the engine off and remove your ignition key.
Always use wheel chocks for hilly or off-road parking. Unexpected and
possibly sudden vehicle movement may occur if these precautions are
not taken.
Gearshift positions
R (Reverse)- Use this position to
back the vehicle. Completely stop
the vehicle before shifting from R
(Reverse) to any forward gear. The
reverse warning signal will sound
when the selector is in R (Reverse).
Reverse has only one gear and
provides the greatest traction. The
Select and Monitor indicators will
display R when reverse is attained.
N (Neutral)- Use N (Neutral) for
starting the engine. If the engine
starts in any gear other than N
(Neutral), the start circuit should be
serviced immediately. Shift to N
(Neutral) and set the parking brake
any time the engine is to be running
while the operator is not at the
controls. The engine should be at
idle speed when any shift from N
(Neutral) to a drive range is made.
The Select and Monitor indicators
will display N.
Do not allow your vehicle to coast in N (Neutral). Transmission
braking is not available in N (Neutral). This practice can also
result in transmission damage.
