HAZARD FLASHER CONTROL
Note:With extended use, the flasher may run down your battery.
The hazard flasher is located on the
steering column, just behind the
steering wheel. The hazard flashers
operate when the ignition is in any
position or if the key is not in the
ignition.
•Press the flasher control to flash
all front and rear direction
signals.
•Press the flasher control again to turn them off.
Use it when your vehicle is creating a safety hazard for other motorists.
JUMP-STARTING THE VEHICLE
WARNING:The gases around the battery can explode if exposed
to flames, sparks, or lit cigarettes. An explosion could result in
injury or vehicle damage.
WARNING:Batteries contain sulfuric acid which can burn skin,
eyes and clothing, if contacted.

Do not attempt to push-start your automatic transmission vehicle.
Automatic transmissions do not have push-start capability. Attempting to
push-start a vehicle with an automatic transmission may cause
transmission damage.
Six-speed TorqShift transmissions have an adaptive shift strategy. When
you disconnect the battery or install a new battery, the automatic
transmission must relearn its shift strategy. As a result, the transmission
may have firm soft shifts, firm shifts or both. This operation is normal
and does not affect function or durability of the transmission. Over time,
the adaptive learning process fully updates transmission operation.
Preparing Your Vehicle
Note:Use only a 12–volt supply to start your vehicle.
Note:Do not disconnect the battery of the disabled vehicle as this could
damage the vehicle’s electrical system.
1. Park the booster vehicle close to the hood of the disabled vehicle
making sure the two vehicles do not touch. Set the parking brake on
both vehicles and stay clear of the engine cooling fan and other
moving parts.
2. Check all battery terminals and remove any excessive corrosion
before you attach the battery cables. Make sure that vent caps are
tight and level.
3. Turn the heater fan on in both vehicles to protect from any electrical
surges. Turn all other accessories off.
Connecting the Jumper Cables
WARNING:Do not connect the end of the second cable to the
negative (-) terminal of the battery to be jumped. A spark may
cause an explosion of the gases that surround the battery.
Note:Do not attach the negative (-) cable to fuel lines, engine rocker
covers, the intake manifold or electrical components as grounding points.
Note:In the illustration, the vehicle on the bottom is used to designate
the assisting (boosting) battery.

1. Connect the positive (+) jumper
cable to the positive (+)
terminal of the discharged
battery.
2. Connect the other end of the
positive (+) cable to the positive
(+) terminal of the assisting
battery.
3. Connect the negative (-) cable
to the negative (-) terminal of
the assisting battery.
4. Make the final connection of the
negative (-) cable to an exposed
metal part of the stalled
vehicle’s engine, away from the
battery and the carburetor or
fuel injection system.
Make sure that the cables are clear of fan blades, belts, moving parts of
both engines, or any fuel delivery system parts.
Jump Starting
1. Start the engine of the booster vehicle and run the engine at
moderately increased speed.
2. Start the engine of the disabled vehicle.
3. Once the disabled vehicle has been started, run both engines for an
additional three minutes before disconnecting the jumper cables.
Removing the Jumper Cables
Note:In the illustration, the vehicle on the bottom is used to designate
the assisting (boosting) battery.
Remove the jumper cables in the reverse order that they were
connected.

Quality service parts are available through an authorized dealer. If dealer
parts are not used, make sure the replacement parts are of equivalent
quality.
WARNING:The use of inferior parts can adversely affect the
quality and reliability of your vehicle which, in turn, can result in
property damage, personal injury or death.
To avoid damage to your vehicle’s electrical components before electric
welding:
•Disconnect both battery cables.
•Attach the welder ground cable as close as possible to the part being
welded.
•We recommend temporarily removing the component if welding close
to an electrical component.
Follow the checks and services in theScheduled Maintenancechapter.
Have an authorized dealer or service center inspect your vehicle at least
once a year. Remember that regular maintenance and inspections usually
prevent serious problems from developing later.
If the owner or operator of the vehicle is a skilled technician and intends
on performing the vehicle maintenance and service, he is strongly urged
to purchase a service manual.
Electrical System
Periodically inspect electrical connectors on the outside of the cab and
on the engine and frame for corrosion and tightness. Exposed terminals,
such as the fuel sender, cranking motor, alternator and feed-through
studs, should be cleaned and re-coated with a lubricant sealing grease
such as Motorcraft Silicone Brake Caliper Grease and Dielectric
Compound XG-3, or equivalent. This should include the ground cable
connector for batteries, engine and cab as well as the jump-starting stud.
Accessory Feed Connections
Vehicle electrical systems are complex and often include powertrain
components, such as engine and transmission controls, instrument panels
and ABS. While most systems operate on battery voltage (12 volts),
some systems can be as high as 90 volts or as low as five volts. See the
Electrical Circuit Diagram Manuals,available from your vehicle’s
manufacturer, to make sure that any extra body lights and accessory
connections to circuits are both appropriate and not overloaded. Do not
make modifications to any vehicle control system without first contacting
an authorized dealer.
