BREAKING-IN YOUR VEHICLE
Your vehicle does not need an extensive break-in. Try not to drive
continuously at the same speed for the first 1,000 miles
(1,600 kilometers) of new vehicle operation. Vary your speed to allow
parts to adjust themselves to other parts.
Drive your new vehicle at least 500 miles (800 kilometers) before towing
a trailer. Make sure you use the specified engine oil by checking the
engine oil specification chart underEngine oilin theMaintenance
chapter.
Do not add friction modifier compounds or special break-in oils during
the first few thousand miles (kilometers) of operation, since these
additives may prevent piston ring seating. SeeEngine oilin the
Maintenancechapter of this supplement for more information on oil
usage.
DIESEL ENGINE INFORMATION
The diesel engine fuel system is a pressurized two-stage filtration system
and consists of:
•a frame-mounted diesel fuel conditioner module (DFCM) / primary
filter with an electric fuel pump and water drain,
•an engine-mounted secondary fuel filter,
•a fuel injector for each cylinder (8 total),
•a high-pressure fuel pump,
•a high-pressure fuel rail for each cylinder bank (2 total) and
•numerous high-pressure pipes from the high-pressure pump to the
rails, and rails to the injectors.
The DFCM acts as a primary fuel filter/water separator which removes
both water and impurities from the fuel. The engine mounted filter filters
finer impurities from the diesel fuel. The engine-mounted fuel filter and
the DFCM filter should be changed at the recommended service interval
or when indicated by the information displayLOW FUEL PRESSURE
message. Refer to thescheduled maintenance informationin this
supplement for more information.
The DFCM should be drained at regular intervals (recommended at
every oil change) or when indicated by the information display and water
in fuel indicator light. SeeFuel filter/water separatorin theFuel and
refuelingchapter.

Do not crank the engine for more than 10 seconds as starter damage
may occur. If the engine fails to start, turn the key to 3 (off) and wait
30 seconds before trying again.
1. Turn the key to on without
turning the key to start. Do not
start the engine until the
glow-plug pre-heat indicator turns off.
2. When the glow plug pre-heat indicator turns off, turn the key to
start, then release the key as soon as the engine starts. The glow
plugs may remain on for a period of time after engine start. If the
engine is not started before the glow plug activation time ends, the
glow plugs will need to be reset by turning the key to off.
3. After the engine starts, allow it to idle for about 15 seconds. This is
to protect the engine. Do not increase engine speed until the oil
pressure gauge indicates normal pressure.
ENGINE IDLE SHUTDOWN (IF EQUIPPED)
Your vehicle may be equipped with an engine idle shutdown system. This
system automatically shuts down your engine when it has been idling in
P (Park) or N (Neutral) for five minutes (parking brake set) or
15 minutes (parking brake not set). When the engine idle shutdown
process has started:
•A chime sounds and the information display will showENGINE
TURNS OFF IN 30(seconds) and start counting down.
•The 5 or 15 minute timer can be restarted by changing the position
of the accelerator pedal, brake pedal or the park brake within the
final 30 seconds.
•When the timer reaches zero, the engine shuts down and this
message will appear in the information displayENGINE TURNED
OFF.
•One minute after the engine has shut down, the electrical system
simulates key off, even though the ignition is still in the on position,
initiating normal accessory delay period.
•The ignition must be moved to the off position to reset the system
before restarting the vehicle.
The engine idle shutdown idle timer does not start if:
•The engine is operating in power take-off (PTO) mode.
•The engine coolant temperature is below 60°F (16°C).
•The exhaust emission control device (DPF) is regenerating.

SELECTIVE CATALYTIC REDUCTION (SCR) SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with a selective catalytic reduction (SCR)
system to help reduce emission levels of oxides of nitrogen from the
exhaust of the diesel engine. The system automatically injects diesel
exhaust fluid (DEF) into the exhaust system to enable proper SCR
function.
Importance of maintaining the DEF level
In order for the SCR system to operate properly, the DEF level must be
maintained. Generally, the DEF tank should be filled during the oil
change service interval. See thescheduled maintenance informationin
this supplement for more information. However, certain conditions or
driving styles, such as trailer towing or fast rates of acceleration, will
require the refilling of the DEF tank more often.
The engine control unit will monitor the amount of fluid available in the
DEF tank. Running a system check in the message center will indicate
whether the DEF level is ok or if it is less than 1/2 full. A message will
automatically be displayed in the message center when the DEF level is
low and needs to be refilled. When you see this message you should refill
your tank. See theInformation displayschapter of yourOwner’s
Manualfor information display functions. For instructions on refilling
your DEF tank, seeFilling the DEF tankin theFuel and Refueling
chapter.
DEF warning messages and vehicle operations
WARNING:Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) must be refilled when
low or replaced when contaminated or the vehicle speed will be
speed limited to 50 mph (80 km/h). In these conditions, drive with
caution and refill DEF immediately. If the DEF becomes empty or
contaminated fluid is not replaced, the vehicle will become limited to
idle speed only once stopped. In these conditions, be cautious where
you stop the vehicle because you may not be able to drive long
distances and will not be able to maintain highway speeds until DEF is
refilled or replaced.
WARNING:Tampering or disabling your vehicle’s exhaust
aftertreatment system will result in severe vehicle performance
limitation including eventual speed limiting to 5 mph.

Your vehicle’s message center will display a series of messages regarding
the amount of DEF available. A systems check will display messages
indicating the amount of DEF available (OK or under
12full) or will
produce a warning message that displays the mileage (kilometers)
remaining as the fluid in the DEF tank nears empty. For more
information on warning messages, see theInformation Displayschapter
of yourOwner’s Manual.
As the DEF level nears empty, the
DEF warning symbol will be
displayed and chimes will sound
with the messages starting at 500 miles (805 km) remaining before DEF
is depleted. The warning symbol and messages will continue until the
DEF tank is refilled.
Continued driving without refilling will result in the following actions as
required by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) and /or U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA):
•Within a certain number of miles (kilometers) to empty, speed will be
limited upon vehicle restart. Prior to this occurring a message will
appear in the message center.
•Further vehicle operation without refilling your DEF tank will cause
the engine to enter an idle-only condition. This will only occur upon
vehicle refueling or extended idle and will be indicated by a message
in the message center indicating required actions to resume normal
operation. It is required to add a minimum of 0.5 gallons (1.9L) of
DEF to the tank to exit the idle-only condition, but the vehicle will
still be in the speed limiting mode until the tank is refilled completely.
For either vehicle speed limiting or idle-only condition, normal vehicle
operation will resume when the DEF tank is refilled.
Note:When filling the DEF tank from empty, there may be a short delay
before detecting the increased level of DEF. This must occur before full
power is returned.

To prevent overfilling of the DEF tank when filling with a bottle, Ford
recommends using Motorcraft® DEF. Additionally, if the information
display indicatesEXHAUST FLUID UNDER 1/2 FULL, you should only
add a MAXIMUM of 2 gallons (6.7L) of DEF to the tank to prevent
freeze damage due to overfilling. If the information display indicates
EXHAUST FLUID LEVEL OK, do not add DEF.
Contaminated DEF or inoperative SCR system
SCR systems are sensitive to
contamination of the DEF. USE
ONLY API or ISO 22241 CERTIFIED
DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID. If the SCR becomes contaminated or
inoperative, the DEF light will illuminate and exhaust fluid system fault
messages will appear in the information display.
Continued driving without replacing DEF or having the SCR system
repaired will result in the following actions as required by the California
Air Resources Board (CARB) and /or U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA):
•Within a certain number of miles (kilometers) to empty, speed will be
limited upon restart. Prior to this occurring a message will appear in
the message center.
•
Further vehicle operation without replacing contaminated DEF will cause
the engine to enter an idle-only condition. This will only occur upon
vehicle refueling, vehicle idling in park for 1 hour, or engine shutdown for
10 minutes or more and will be indicated by a message in the message
center indicating required actions to resume normal operation.
For either vehicle speed limiting or idle-only condition, normal vehicle
operation will resume when the contaminated system is repaired.To
service a contaminated or inoperative system, see your
authorized dealer.
DEF guidelines and information
•Use only DEF that carries the trademark: American Petroleum
Institute (API) certified DEF or ISO 22241.
•Do not put DEF in the diesel fuel tank.
•Do not overfill the DEF tank.
•Do not re-use the DEF container once it is emptied.
•
Avoid spilling DEF on painted surfaces, carpeting or plastic components.
Immediately wipe away any DEF that has spilled with a damp cloth and
water. If it has already crystallized, use warm water and a sponge.

3. Rotate the drain counterclockwise
until the O-ring is visible. Allow the
DFCM to drain for approximately
25 seconds or until clean fuel is
observed. Rotate the drain clockwise
to tighten it. If no liquid drains, the
drain may be clogged. Have the
DFCM serviced by your authorized
dealer.
4. Make sure that the drain valve is fully tightened, then remove the
container from under the vehicle.
5. Restart the engine. TheWATER IN FUEL DRAIN FILTERor

LOW FUEL PRESSURE MESSAGE
The engine is equipped with a low fuel pressure detection system. If the
message center displays:LOW FUEL PRESSUREthe following
explains why and what to do:
•Cold start or cold operation (below 32°F (0°C): If this message
appears during a cold start or during cold operation up to 10 minutes
after the initial cold start, monitor the message center. If it disappears
and does not re-appear after the engine has fully warmed up, the low
fuel pressure message is most likely caused by waxed or gelled fuel.
Do not use alcohol based additives to correct fuel gelling. This may
result in damage to the fuel injectors/systems. Use an anti-gel additive
as listed in theCapacities and Specificationschapter. The customer
warranty may be void from using additives that do not meet or exceed
Ford specifications.
If the low fuel pressure message persistently appears after re-fueling
during the cold start and cold operation conditions defined previously
and then disappear when the engine has fully warmed up, consider
different fuel sources.
•Low fuel operation: If the message appears when the vehicle is warm
and during low fuel tank level operation, i.e. the tank level is at or
very near empty, refuel the vehicle and operate the 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.

from the tailpipe. As soot gathers in the system it begins to restrict the
filter. The soot gathered inside the filter needs to be periodically cleaned.
The soot can be cleaned in two different ways; passive regeneration and
active regeneration. Both methods occur automatically and require no
actions from the driver/operator. During either one of these regeneration
methods you may notice an increase/change in exhaust noise/tone. At
certain times, the message center will display various messages related
to the DPF. See theInformation Displayschapter in theOwner Guide
for more information.
Passive regeneration
In passive regeneration, the exhaust constituents / temperature are at an
appropriate level where some soot can be reduced or oxidized (burned)
thus cleaning the filter. This method occurs naturally as a result of
normal engine operating conditions (at varying levels due to drive
patterns).
Active regeneration
Note:Do not disregard theDRIVE TO CLEAN EXHAUST FILTERor
Drive to Clean Exhaust Systemmaintenance message for extended
periods of time. Failure to perform active or operator commanded
regeneration (OCR) (if equipped) when instructed may result in a
clogged DPF. If your DPF fills beyond what can be safely regenerated,
active regeneration and OCR will be disabled. This could cause
irreversible damage to the DPF, requiring service and possible
replacement that may not be covered by your warranty.
Once the DPF is full of exhaust particles, the engine control module will
command the exhaust system to clean the DPF through a process called
active regeneration. Active regeneration requires the engine computer to
raise the exhaust temperature to eliminate the particles. During cleaning,
the particles are converted to harmless gasses, and the DPF will then be
clean and ready to continue trapping exhaust particles.
The regeneration process operates more efficiently when the vehicle is
safely operated at least 30 mph (48 km/h) with a steady pedal for
approximately 20 minutes to complete the process. The frequency and
duration of regeneration will fluctuate as both are determined by how
you drive your vehicle, outside air temperature, and altitude. For most
driving, regeneration frequency will vary from 100 - 500 miles (161 -
805 km) between occurrences and each occurrence will last from 9 -
20 minutes. The duration of regeneration is usually reduced if a constant
speed above 30 mph (48 km/h) is maintained.

When the engine control module detects that the DPF is nearly full of
particulates and that the vehicle is not being operated in a manner to
allow effective automatic cleaning, the information display will display
DRIVE TO CLEAN EXHAUST FILTERfor base information display
andDrive to Clean Exhaust Systemfor the optional information
display, guiding the vehicle operator to drive in order to clean the DPF. If
the vehicle is operated in a manner to allow effective automatic cleaning,
the information display will display a cleaning exhaust filter message,
which is the normal regeneration process. See theInformation Displays
chapter of theOwner Guidefor more information.
You can also choose OCR to clean the exhaust system at this point. See
How to start operator commanded regeneration (OCR)later in this
chapter.
If the operator is not able to drive in a manner that allows effective
automatic cleaning (active regeneration) or the operator instead wishes
to perform regeneration of the DPF (cleaning) while at idle (stationary),
then OCR (operator commanded regeneration) will need to be
performed. SeeOperator commanded regeneration (OCR)following.
Operator Commanded Regeneration (OCR) (if equipped)
If your vehicle is operated with significant stationary operation, low
speed drive cycles less then 25 mph, short drive cycles, a drive time is
less than 10 - 15 minutes or the vehicle does not fully warm up, passive
and active regeneration may not sufficiently clean the DPF system. OCR
allows you to manually start regeneration of the diesel particulate filter
(DPF) at idle (while stationary) to clean the DPF. If you are not sure
whether your vehicle is equipped with this feature, contact your
authorized dealer.
When to perform OCR
Use the OCR feature when theDRIVE TO CLEAN EXHAUST FILTER
message appears in the information display and:
•the operator is not able to drive in manner that allows effective
automatic cleaning (active regeneration),
•or the operator instead wishes to manually start regeneration
(cleaning) of the DPF while the vehicle is idle (stationary).

Base information display procedure
1. Start with the vehicle engine fully warmed.
2. Press the Info button on the steering wheel until the information
display reads one of the following choices:
•If the DPF needs cleaning and the vehicle is warmed up, a message
requesting permission to initiate filter cleaning will be displayed
EXHST XX% FULL CLEAN Y/NorEXHAUST FILTER FULL.
Answer yes to this prompt and then follow the prompts regarding
exhaust position as needed to initiate OCR. Be sure to understand
each prompt. If you are not sure what is being asked by each prompt,
contact your authorized dealer. The display will confirm the operation
has started and when it has finished.
•If the vehicle is warmed up, the
powertrain fault indicator will
illuminate and messages
requesting permission to initiate filter cleaning will be displayed
DRIVE TO CLEAN EXHAUST FILTER+EXH OVERLOADED
CLEAN? Y/N. Answer yes to this prompt and then follow the
prompts regarding exhaust position as needed to initiate OCR. Be sure
to understand each prompt. If you are not sure what is being asked by
each prompt, contact your authorized dealer. The display will confirm
the operation has started and when it has finished. You can also drive
to clean the filter. SeeActive regenerationearlier in this chapter.
•The service engine soon light will
illuminate and the following
messagesEXH OVERLOADED
CLEAN? Y/N+REDUCED ENGINE POWERwill appear when the
system is at the point of oversaturation you will not be able to allow
cleaning . The vehicle must be serviced by an authorized dealer.
3. Once OCR starts, the engine’s rpm will rise to approximately 2,000 -
2,400 rpm and the cooling fan will increase speed; you will hear a change
in audible sound due to the fan and engine speed increase.
It is not necessary to open the hood on the engine compartment. Once
OCR is complete, the engine rpm and fan will return to normal idling.
The exhaust system will remain very hot for several minutes even after
regeneration is complete. Do not reposition the vehicle over materials
that could burn until the exhaust system has had sufficient time to
cool. Depending on the amount of soot collected by the DPF, ambient
temperature, and altitude, OCR may last from 10 to 25 minutes.
