DUAL FUEL TANK SELECTOR CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED)
If your vehicle is equipped with dual
fuel tanks, you will have a selector
control, located to the right of the
steering wheel, which allows you to
draw fuel from either tank. Your fuel
gauge will display the amount of
fuel in the currently selected tank.
Fuel level indication is delayed for several minutes when the tank
selector switch is actuated. Fuel level indication can be obtained
immediately by turning off and restarting the engine.

Multi-point Inspection
In order to keep your vehicle running right, it is important that you have
the systems on your vehicle checked regularly. This can help identify any
potential issue before there are any problems. Ford Motor Company
suggests the following multi-point inspection to be performed at every
scheduled maintenance as the way to ensure your vehicle keeps running
right.
Check every month
❑Check function of all interior and exterior lights❑Check tires for wear and adjust air pressure (including spare tire)
❑Check engine oil level
❑Check windshield washer fluid level
❑Check and drain fuel filter/water separator
Check every six months
❑Check lap/shoulder belts and seat latches for wear and function❑Check that externally-mounted spare tire is tight (seeOwner’s Guide)
❑Check power steering fluid level
❑Check washer spray, wiper operation and clean all wiper blades (replace as necessary)
❑Check parking brake for proper operation
❑Check and lubricate all hinges, latches and outside locks
❑Check and lubricate door rubber weatherstrips
❑Check and clean body and door drain holes
❑Check safety warning lamps (brake, ABS, air bag, safety belt) for operation
❑Check cooling system fluid level and coolant strength
❑Check battery connections and clean if necessary
❑Check clutch fluid level, if equipped
Retightening lug nuts
❑On vehicles equipped with single rear wheels, retighten the lug nuts to the specified torque at 500 miles (800 km) after
any wheel disturbance (tire rotation, changing a flat tire, wheel removal, etc.).
❑On vehicles equipped with dual rear wheels, retighten the wheel lug nuts to the specified torque at 100 miles (160 km),
and again at 500 miles (800 km) of new vehicle operation and after any wheel disturbance (tire rotation, changing a flat
tire, wheel removal, etc.).
❑Refer toWheel Lug Nut Torque Specificationin yourOwner’s Guidefor the proper lug nut torque specification.

Normal Vehicle Axle Maintenance
❑Rear axles and power take-off (PTO) units containing synthetic lubricant and light duty trucks equipped with Ford-design axles
are lubricated for life. These lubricants are not to be checked or changed unless a leak is suspected, service is required or
the axle assembly has been submerged in water. The axle and PTO lubricant should be changed anytime the axle and PTO
have been submerged in water. Non-synthetic rear axle lubricants should be replaced every 3,000 miles (5,000 km) or 3
months, whichever occurs first, during extended trailer tow operation above 70°F (21°C) ambient and wide open throttle for
extended periods above 45 mph (72 km/h). The 3,000 mile (5,000 km) lube change interval may be waived if the axle
was filled with 75W140 synthetic gear lubricant meeting Ford specification WSL-M2C192-A, part number F1TZ-19580-B or
equivalent. Add four ounces (118 mL)of additive friction modifier C8AZ-19B546-A (EST-M2C118-A) or equivalent for complete
refill of Traction-Lok rear axles. The axle lubricant should be changed anytime an axle has been submerged in water.
