Engine Oil Pressure Gauge
Indicates engine oil pressure. The needle
should stay in the normal operating range
(between L and H). If the needle falls
below the normal range, stop the vehicle,
switch off the engine and check the engine
oil level. Add oil if needed. If the oil level is
correct, have your vehicle checked by an
authorized dealer.
Engine Coolant Temperature
Gauge
WARNING
Never remove the coolant reservoir
cap while the engine is running or hot.
Indicates engine coolant temperature. At
normal operating temperature, the level
indicator is in the normal range. If the
engine coolant temperature exceeds the
normal range, stop the vehicle as soon as
safely possible, switch off the engine and
let the engine cool.
Transmission Fluid Temperature
Gauge
Indicates transmission fluid temperature.
At normal operating temperature, the level
indicator is in the normal range. If the
transmission fluid temperature exceeds
the normal range, stop the vehicle as soon
as safely possible and verify the airflow is
not restricted such as snow or debris
blocking airflow through the grille.
Special operating conditions, such as
snowplowing, towing or off-road use, can
cause higher than normal operating
temperatures. See Special Operating
Conditions Scheduled Maintenance
(page
328). Operating the transmission for extended
periods with the gauge in the higher than
normal area may cause internal
transmission damage. We recommend
altering the severity of the driving
conditions to lower the transmission
temperature into the normal range. If the
gauge continues to show high
temperatures, contact an authorized
dealer.
Fuel Gauge
Note:
The fuel gauge may vary slightly
when your vehicle is moving or on a gradient.
Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge
indicates approximately how much fuel is
in the fuel tank. The arrow adjacent to the
fuel pump symbol indicates on which side
of your vehicle the fuel filler door is located.
The needle should move toward F when
you refuel your vehicle. If the needle points
to E after adding fuel, this indicates your
vehicle needs service soon.
After refueling, some variability in needle
position is normal:
• It may take a short time for the needle
to reach F after leaving the gas station.
This is normal and depends upon the
slope of pavement at the gas station.
• The fuel amount dispensed into the
tank is a little less or more than the
gauge indicated. This is normal and
depends upon the slope of pavement
at the gas station.
• If the gas station nozzle shuts off
before the tank is full, try a different
gas pump nozzle.

personal injury or sickness may result.
If you splash fuel on your skin, promptly
wash your skin thoroughly with soap
and water. Consult a physician
immediately if you experience an
adverse reaction.
Low Fuel Pressure (If Equipped)
Diesel engine vehicles have a low fuel
pressure detection system.
The following are possible causes for a low
fuel pressure warning message to appear
in the information display:
• Cold start or during cold operation
below
32°F (0°C). If the low fuel
pressure message appears during a
cold start or up to 10 minutes after the
initial cold start, monitor the
information display. If the low fuel
pressure message disappears and does
not re-appear after the engine has fully
warmed up, waxed or gelled fuel is
what most likely caused the message.
Do not use alcohol based additives to
correct fuel gelling. This may result in
damage to the fuel injectors and
systems. Use an anti-gel additive. See
Capacities and Specifications (page
258
).
Note: The vehicle Warranty may be void if
you use additives that do not meet or
exceed Ford specifications. If the low fuel
pressure message persistently appears after
re-fueling and then disappears when the
engine has fully warmed up, consider using
different fuel sources. •
Low fuel operation: If the low fuel
pressure message appears when your
vehicle is warm and during low fuel
tank level operation (near empty),
refuel your vehicle. If the message
reappears after fueling, see below. If
the message does not come back, the
low fuel pressure condition was due to
low fuel levels in the fuel tank.
• Normal operation: If the low fuel
pressure message appears during
normal operation when the engine is
fully warm, and fuel level is not low,
you must change the fuel filters
regardless of the maintenance
schedule interval.
• If replacement of the fuel filter does
not remedy the low fuel pressure
message during normal operation as
defined above, take the vehicle to an
authorized dealer.
FUEL QUALITY - GASOLINE
Choosing the Right Fuel We recommend regular unleaded gasoline
with a minimum pump (R+M)/2 octane
rating of 87. Some fuel stations offer fuels
posted as regular unleaded gasoline with
an octane rating below 87, particularly in
high altitude areas. We do not recommend
fuels with an octane rating below 87.
Do not use any fuel other than those
recommended because they could lead to
engine damage that may not be covered
by the vehicle Warranty.
91
F-650/750 (TBC) , enUSA, First Printing Fuel and RefuelingE161513

Do not use alcohol-based additives to
improve cetane quality, to prevent fuel
gelling or any other use. The use of alcohol
additives may result in damage to the fuel
injectors and system. See Capacities and
Specifications (page 263).
The Vehicle Warranty may not cover
repairs needed to correct the effects of
using an aftermarket product that does
not meet Ford specifications in your fuel.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL -
GASOLINE
Avoid running out of fuel because this
situation may have an adverse effect on
powertrain components.
If you run out of fuel:
• You may need to switch the ignition
from off to on several times after
refueling to allow the fuel system to
pump the fuel from the tank to the
engine. When restarting, cranking time
takes a few seconds longer than
normal. With keyless ignition, just start
the engine. Crank time will be longer
than usual.
• Normally, adding 1 gal (3.8 L) of fuel is
enough to restart the engine. If the
vehicle is out of fuel and on a steep
grade, more than
1 gal (3.8 L) may be
required.
• The service engine soon indicator may
come on. See
Warning Lamps and
Indicators (page 58).
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL -
DIESEL
Avoid running out of fuel. This allows air to
enter the fuel system and may make it
difficult to restart your vehicle. If your vehicle runs out of fuel:
•
Normally adding
4–5 gal (15– 19 L) of
fuel is enough to restart the engine. If
your vehicle is out of fuel and on a
steep grade, more than
5 gal (19 L)
may be required.
• You must purge trapped air from the
system before restarting the engine.
Purging Air From the System
Switch the ignition on for 30 seconds and
then switch the ignition off. Repeat this
operation six times in a row to purge any
trapped air from the fuel system.
Any remaining air in the system self-purges
when the engine starts. The engine may
run rough or produce white smoke when
air remains in the fuel system. This is
normal and stops after a short period. If
the engine continues to run rough, have
your vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Starting the Engine
Do not crank the engine for more than 10
seconds as starter damage may occur. If
the engine fails to start, switch the ignition
off and wait 30 seconds before cranking
the engine again. See
Starting a Diesel
Engine (page 86).
SELECTIVE CATALYTIC
REDUCTION SYSTEM - DIESEL
Your vehicle may have a selective catalytic
reduction system. The system helps reduce
emission levels of oxides of nitrogen from
the exhaust system. The system
automatically injects diesel exhaust fluid
into the exhaust system to enable correct
selective catalytic reduction system
function.
Note: Selective catalytic reduction systems
are not fitted to vehicles in markets where
only high-sulfur diesel fuel is available.
95
F-650/750 (TBC) , enUSA, First Printing Fuel and Refueling

Diesel Exhaust Fluid Level
In order for the system to operate correctly
you must maintain the diesel exhaust fluid
level.
A warning message appears in the
information display when the diesel
exhaust fluid level is low. If a warning
message appears, refill the diesel exhaust
fluid tank as soon as possible. See
Information Messages (page 64).
Filling the Diesel Exhaust Fluid
Tank WARNINGS
Keep diesel exhaust fluid out of the
reach of children. Avoid contact with
skin, eyes or clothing. In case of
contact with your eyes, flush immediately
with water and get prompt medical
attention. In case of contact with your skin,
clean immediately with soap and water. If
you swallow any diesel exhaust fluid, drink
plenty of water, call a physician
immediately. Only refill the diesel exhaust fluid
tank in a well ventilated area. When
you remove the diesel exhaust fluid
tank filler cap or a diesel exhaust fluid
container cap, ammonia vapors may
escape. Ammonia vapors can be irritating
to skin, eyes and mucous membranes.
Inhaling ammonia vapors can cause
burning to the eyes, throat and nose and
cause coughing and watery eyes. The diesel exhaust fluid tank has a blue
filler cap. The tank is behind the left-hand
front wheel. Fill the tank using a fluid pump
at a diesel exhaust fluid filling station or a
diesel exhaust fluid container. We
recommend Motorcraft® diesel exhaust
fluid. See Capacities and Specifications
(page
258).
