For best overall vehicle and engineperformance, premium fuel with an octanerating of 91 or higher is recommended. Theperformance gained by using premium fuelis most noticeable in hot weather as wellas other conditions, for example whentowing a trailer. See Towing a Trailer(page 365).
Do not be concerned if the enginesometimes knocks lightly. However, if theengine knocks heavily while using fuel withthe recommended octane rating, contactan authorized dealer to prevent any enginedamage.
We recommend Top Tier detergentgasolines, where available to help minimizeengine deposits and maintain optimalvehicle and engine performance.
For additional information, visitwww.toptiergas.com.
Note:Use of any fuel for which the vehiclewas not designed can impair the emissioncontrol system, cause loss of vehicleperformance, and cause damage to theengine which may not be covered by thevehicle Warranty.
Do not use:
•Diesel fuel.
•Fuels containing kerosene or paraffin.
•Fuel containing more than 15% ethanolor E85 fuel.
•Fuels containing methanol.
•Fuels containing metallic-basedadditives, including manganese-basedcompounds.
•Fuels containing the octane boosteradditive, methylcyclopentadienylmanganese tricarbonyl (MMT).
•Leaded fuel, using leaded fuel isprohibited by law.
The use of fuels with metallic compoundssuch as methylcyclopentadienylmanganese tricarbonyl, which is amanganese-based fuel additive, will impairengine performance and affect theemission control system.
SELECTING THE CORRECT FUELFOR COLD WEATHER
Choosing the Right Fuel: VehiclesOperated Where Ultra Low SulfurDiesel Fuel Is Required (UnitedStates/Canada/Puerto Rico/U.S.Virgin Islands And Other Locales)
Note:Your Warranty will not cover damagecaused by using an improper type of fuel orfuel additive.
Note:Do not blend used engine oil withdiesel fuel under any circumstances.Blending used oil with the fuel significantlyincreases your vehicle’s exhaust emissionsand reduce engine life due to increasedinternal wear.
We recommend Top Tier diesel fuel whereavailable to help minimize engine depositsand maintain optimal vehicle and engineperformance.
For additional information, visitwww.toptiergas.com.
You should use ultra-low sulfur diesel fueldesignated as number 1-D or 2-D with amaximum of 15-ppm sulfur in your dieselvehicle. You can operate your vehicle ondiesel fuels containing up to 20%biodiesel, also known as B20. These fuelsshould meet the ASTM D975 diesel or theASTM D7467 B6-B20 biodiesel industryspecifications. Outside of North America,use fuels meeting EN590 or equivalentlocal market standard.

Using low-sulfur diesel fuel(16-500 ppm) or high-sulfurdiesel fuel (greater than 500ppm) in your diesel engine will causecertain emission components tomalfunction which could also cause theservice engine soon light to illuminateindicating an emissions-related concern.
Diesel fuel is adjusted seasonally for coldtemperature. For best results attemperatures below 19°F (-7°C), werecommend using a diesel fuel which hasbeen seasonally adjusted for the ambientconditions.
Choosing the Right Fuel: VehiclesOperated Where Ultra Low SulfurDiesel Fuel Is Not Required
For the engine to operate reliably onlow-sulfur or high-sulfur diesel fuel, theengine must be a factory-built high-sulfurengine (available as a dealer order optionfor select markets) or an ultra-low sulfurdiesel fuel configured engine that has beenretrofitted for high-sulfur diesel fuel usingauthorized dealer service parts. Failure touse retrofit components other than thoseavailable through your authorized dealerresults in coolant system damage, engineoverheating, selective catalyst reductionsystem or diesel particulate filter damageand possible base engine damage.
Use only a diesel engine configured for usewith high-sulfur diesel fuel in markets withdiesel fuel that has sulfur content greaterthan 15 ppm. Using low-sulfur diesel fuel(16–500 ppm) or high-sulfur diesel fuel(greater than 500 ppm) in a diesel enginedesigned to use only ultra-low sulfur dieselfuel could result in damage to engineemission control devices and the aftertreatment system, potentially renderingthe vehicle inoperable.
Vehicles with engines configured for usewith high-sulfur diesel fuel are onlyavailable for sale in countries whereultra-low sulfur diesel fuel is generally notavailable or mandated by the government.Vehicles originally sold in an ultra-lowsulfur diesel fuel market that aresubsequently exported to non-ultra lowsulfur diesel fuel markets will need to beretrofitted at the customer’s expense usingFord authorized dealer service parts inorder to be reliably operated on non-ultralow sulfur diesel fuel.
Biodiesel
WARNING: Do not mix diesel withgasoline, gasohol or alcohol. This couldcause an explosion.
Note:Do not use home heating oil,agricultural fuel, raw fats and oils, wastecooking greases, biodiesel greater than 20%or any diesel not intended for highway use.Damage to the fuel injection system, engineand exhaust catalyst, and diesel particulatefilter can occur if you use an improper fuel.Red dye is used to identify fuels intendedfor agricultural and non-highway use.
You can operate your vehicle on dieselfuels containing up to 20% biodiesel, alsoknown as B20.
Biodiesel fuel is a chemically convertedproduct from renewable fuel sources, suchas vegetable oils, animal fats and wastecooking greases.
To help achieve acceptable engineperformance and durability when usingbiodiesel in your vehicle:
•Confirm the biodiesel content of thefuel to be B20 (20% biodiesel) or less.
•Only use biodiesel fuel of good qualitythat complies with industry standards.

Failure to perform active or manualregeneration when instructed could resultin a clogged diesel particulate filter. If thediesel particulate filter fills beyond theregeneration threshold, your vehicledisables the ability for active and manualregeneration. This could result inirreversible damage your vehicle Warrantymay not cover.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
REQUIREMENTS
The diesel particulate filter on your vehiclerequires periodic regeneration to maintainits correct function.
If your journeys meet one of the followingconditions:
•You drive only short distances.
•You frequently switch the ignition onand off.
•Your journeys contain a high level ofacceleration and deceleration.
You must carry out occasional trips withthe following conditions to assist theregeneration process:
•Drive your vehicle in more favorableconditions, which you will find at highervehicle speeds in normal driving, on amain road or freeway for a minimumof 20 minutes. This drive may includeshort stops that will not affect theregeneration process.
•Avoid prolonged idling and observespeed limits and road conditions.
•Do not switch the ignition off.
•Select a suitable gear to ideallymaintain engine speed between 1500and 3000 RPM.

GUIDELINES
•Diesel exhaust fluid is non-flammable,non-toxic, colorless and water-solubleliquid.
•In order for the system to operatecorrectly you must maintain the dieselexhaust fluid level.
•Do not overfill the diesel exhaust fluidtank.
•Diesel exhaust fluid is corrosive.
•Avoid spilling diesel exhaust fluid onpainted surfaces, carpeting or plasticcomponents. Immediately wipe awayany diesel exhaust fluid that has spilledwith a damp cloth and water. If it hasalready crystallized, use warm waterand a sponge.
•Do not store the diesel exhaust fluidbottle in your vehicle. If it leaks it couldcause damage to interior componentsor release an ammonia odor inside yourvehicle.
•Do not re-use the diesel exhaust fluidcontainer once it is emptied.
•Store diesel exhaust fluid out of directsunlight and in temperatures between23–68°F (-5–20°C).
•The system has a diesel exhaust fluidquality sensor. Dilution of dieselexhaust fluid or use of any other liquidin the selective catalytic reductionsystem leads to a diesel exhaust fluidsystem fault, eventually leading to thevehicle only operating in idle-onlymode.
•Do not dilute diesel exhaust fluid withwater or any other liquid.
