Warnings
WARNING
Throughout this guide, you will findwarnings identified by the warningsymbol. Warnings remind you to be
especially careful to reduce the risk ofpersonal injury.
Breaking-In Your Vehicle
Your vehicle does not need an extensive
break-in. Try not to drive continuously atthe same speed for the first 1000 miles(1600 kilometers) of new vehicleoperation. Vary your speed to allow partsto 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.See Technical Specifications(page 56).
Do not add friction modifier compounds
or special break-in oils during the first fewthousand miles (kilometers) of operation,since these additives may prevent pistonring seating. See Engine Oil Check(page42).
Diesel Engine Information
The diesel engine fuel system is apressurized two-stage filtration systemand consists of:
A frame-mounted Fuel and WaterSeparator primary filter with an electricfuel pump and water drain
An engine-mounted secondary fuelfilter
A fuel injector for each cylinder (8total)
A high-pressure fuel pump

A high-pressure fuel rail for eachcylinder bank (2 total)
Numerous high-pressure pipes fromthe high-pressure pump to the rails,and rails to the injectors
The fuel and water separator removesboth water and impurities from the fuel.The engine mounted filter filters finerimpurities from the diesel fuel. Theengine-mounted fuel filter and the fuel andwater separator filter should be changedat the recommended service interval orwhen indicated by the information displayLOW FUEL PRESSURE message. Refer tothe scheduled maintenance information
in this supplement for more information.The fuel and water separator should bedrained at regular intervals (recommendedat every oil change) or when indicated bythe information display and water in fuelindicator light. See Fuel Quality(page14).
Proper fuel filter maintenance and promptwater draining when the water in fuel lightilluminates is essential to prevent injectionequipment damage. Ignoring the water in
fuel light can cause your vehicle to go intoa reduced power mode.
A frame-mounted electric fuel pumplocated inside the fuel and water separatordraws fuel from the fuel tank to providepressurized fuel to the engine. The fuelpump contains a pressure relief valve foroverpressure protection in the event ofrestricted flow.
The fuel injection system is controlled
through the powertrain control module.
Engine protection mode
Ford diesel engines are equipped withengine protection and emission controlsystems. These systems monitor critical
temperatures and pressures, and modifyengine operation accordingly. Thesemodified engine performancecharacteristics are normal.
If these modified engine performancecharacteristics persist for an extendedperiod and either the service engine soonor powertrain malfunction,reduced power,electronic throttle control light isilluminated, have the system checked byan authorized dealer.
Service engine soon
Powertrain malfunction, reducedpower, electronic throttle control
Lubrication system
It is important to change the engine oil atthe recommended service intervals to
maintain oil viscosity. Extending the oil andfilter change interval beyond therecommended interval can negativelyaffect engine performance, fuel economyand engine life. See Engine Oil Check(page 42).
Fast start glow plug system
The diesel engine glow system consists of:
Eight glow plugs (one per cylinder)
Glow Plug Control Module Engine Coolant Temperature sensor
Barometric pressure sensor

The powertrain and glow plug controlmodules electronically control the glowplug system. After you switch the ignitionon the glow plug control moduleimmediately energizes the glow plugs. The
glow plug control module using the enginecoolant temperature, barometric pressuresensor and environmental temperaturesensor will determine how long the glowplugs stay energized. The required time forthe glow plugs to be energized decreasesas the coolant temperature, barometricpressure and environmental temperatureincrease.
Glow Plug
Engine and secondary cooling system
The cooling system contains a primarycooling loop to cool the engine andexhaust gases and a secondary coolingloop to cool the transmission, exhaustgases, charge air, and fuel. The coolantserves three primary purposes: to provideheat transfer, freeze point protection, andcorrosion protection using additives.
Vehicles with diesel engines typically areused to carry heavy loads and accumulatemileage rapidly. These two factors maycause the additives in the coolant to wearout in a shorter time. For more informationabout coolant additives and coolantchange intervals See GeneralMaintenance Information(page 58). .Operating the engine with insufficientcoolant or coolant additive can cause
severe engine damageSelective catalytic reduction system
Your vehicle is equipped with a selectivecatalytic reduction system designed toreduce emission levels of nitrogen oxidesfrom the exhaust of your diesel engine. Thissystem relies on the use of diesel exhaustfluid that you must replenish at certain
intervals. Failure to maintain proper dieselexhaust fluid levels or if the diesel exhaustfluid becomes contaminated will result invehicle speed limitations or result in yourvehicle entering an idle-only mode. See
Selective Catalytic Reduction System(page 20).
Speed control
If your vehicle speed goes outside apredetermined range from the set speed,the RSM(Resume) function will not resetyour vehicle speed. You will need to resetyour vehicle speed with the SET+or SET-button after reaching the desired speedusing the accelerator pedal.
Minor Troubleshooting Guide
If the engine wont crank
WARNING
Battery posts, terminals and relatedaccessories contain lead and leadcompounds. Wash hands after
handling.
Turn on the headlights. If the lights are dim,do not go on at all or when the ignition isturned to START the lights become dim orgo out, the battery connections may beloose or corroded, or the battery may bedischarged. If there is a clicking orstuttering sound coming from the enginecompartment when you turn the key toSTART, this may also indicate a loose orcorroded battery connection.
Check the battery connections at thebattery posts, cable connection to theengine grounding point and at the starterconnection.
If you suspect a discharged battery, haveit checked and corrected.

The gearshift lever must be in P(Park)or N(Neutral) in order for the starterto operate.
Try operating the starter switch severaltimes. This operation may cleanpotentially corroded contacts or makethe switch temporarily operable untilyou can reach the dealer.
If all electrical connections are tightand you need assistance to start, referto Jump Starting in the RoadsideEmergencies chapter of your OwnersManual.
If engine cranks but wont start
Prolonged starter cranking (in excess of 10seconds) could cause damage to thestarter motor or the high-pressure fuelpump.
Check the fuel gauge. You may be outof fuel. If the gauge shows that thereis fuel in the tank, the trouble may bein the electrical system or the fuelsystem. If equipped with an auxiliarytank, be sure that the tank controlswitch is set for the tank with fuel and
not on an empty tank. Leaving your ignition key turned to on
for over two minutes without startingmay make starting difficult becausethe glow plugs will cease activation.Reset the system by turning the ignitionkey to off and then back to on again.
Note: If the system is out of fuel and theengine will not start, do not continuecranking the engine. Continued cranking can
damage the high-pressure fuel pump.If the engine runs hot
The following could cause the engine tooverheat:
Lack of coolant
Dirty cooling system.
Plugged radiator fins, A/C condenserand/or oil cooler
Malfunctioning fan drive
Driving with frozen coolant
Sticking thermostat Overloading or pulling heavy trailers
during hot weather
Grill or radiator air blockage
Slipping or missing drive belt
Plugged or very dirty air filter
If fuses burn out
WARNING
Replacement fuses and circuitbreakers must always be the samerating as the original equipment
shown. Never replace a fuse or circuitbreaker with one of a higher rating. Higherrated fuses or circuit breakers could allowcircuit overloading in the event of a circuitmalfunction, resulting in severe vehicledamage or personal injury due to fire.
Burned-out or blown fuses usually indicatean electrical short-circuit, although a fusemay occasionally burn out from vibration.Insert a second fuse. If this fuseimmediately burns out and you cannotlocate the cause, return your vehicle toyour dealer for a circuit check.
Refer to the Owners Manual forreplacement of fuses.
Selective catalytic reduction systemspeed limit and Idle-only modes
If the vehicles speed is limited or in anidle-only mode, the selective catalyticreduction system may be limiting thevehicles functions due to low orcontaminated diesel exhaust fluid. Checkthe diesel exhaust fluid. See SelectiveCatalytic Reduction System(page 20).

Glow Plug Pre-Heat
With the key in the on position,this light illuminates if glow plugheat is necessary as a starting
aid. Wait until the light goes off beforestarting. See Starting a Diesel Engine(page 9).
After the engine starts, the light should turnoff. The light should always momentarilyilluminate when the engine is cold and youturn the ignition to on.
Water In Fuel
During refueling, it is possible for
water-contaminated diesel fuelto be pumped into your tank.
Your vehicles fuel system is equipped witha fuel filter/water separator to removewater from the fuel. The Water In Fuel(WIF) light will illuminate when the Fueland Water Separator has a significantquantity of water in it and requiresimmediate draining.
If the water in fuel light illuminates whenthe engine is running, stop your vehicle as
soon as safely possible, shut off the engine,then drain the fuel and water separator.See Fuel Quality(page 14). Allowingwater to stay in the fuel system, after thewater in fuel light has illuminated, couldresult in extensive damage or failure of thefuel injection system.
WARNING
Do not drain the fuel and waterseparator while the engine is running.
Fuel may ignite if the separator isdrained while the engine is running or thevehicle is moving.
Note: If you drain the fuel and waterseparator while the system is running air willenter into the fuel system. The engine willnot operate properly if air enters the system.

STARTING A DIESEL ENGINE
Read all starting instructions carefullybefore you start your vehicle.
For temperatures below 32F (0C), theuse of the correct grade engine oil isessential for proper operation. Refer toEngine oil specifications for moreinformation. See TechnicalSpecifications(page 56).
Your vehicle may be equipped with a coldweather starting strategy that preventssevere engine damage by assisting inengine lubrication warm-up. In extremelycold ambient temperatures, this strategy
activates and prevents the acceleratorpedal from being used for 30 seconds afterstarting your vehicle. A message willappear in the information display as yourvehicle warms up. By not allowing theaccelerator pedal to be used, the engineoil is allowed to properly lubricate thebearings preventing engine damage dueto lack of proper lubrication. After the 30second warm-up period, the acceleratorpedal will be operational again and a
message will appear informing you thevehicle is ok to drive.
When starting the engine in extremely coldtemperatures (-15F [26C]), it isrecommended to allow the engine to idlefor several minutes before driving thevehicle.
Make sure the gearshift lever is in P(Park)and the parking brake is fully set beforeyou turn the key. Do not press theaccelerator during starting.
Cold Weather Starting
WARNINGS
Do not use starting fluid, such asether, in the air intake system (seeair filter decal). Such fluid could
cause immediate explosive damage to theengine and possible personal injury
WARNINGS
Do not add gasoline, gasohol, alcoholor Kerosene to diesel fuel. Thispractice creates a serious fire hazard
and causes engine performance problems.
It is recommended that the engine blockheater be used for starting when thetemperature is -10F (-23C) or colder.Refer to Engine block heater later in thischapter for more information.
When operating in cold weather,Motorcraft cetane improvers ornon-alcohol-based cetane improvers froma reputable manufacturer may be used as
needed.
Do not crank the engine for more than 10seconds as starter damage may occur. Ifthe engine fails to start, turn the key toposition 3 (off) and wait 30 secondsbefore trying again.
1. Turn the key to on without turning the
key to start. Do not start the engineuntil the glow-plug indicator turns off.
2. When the glow plug pre-heat indicatorturns off, turn the key to start andrelease the key as soon as the enginestarts. After starting the engine, theglow plugs may remain on for a period.If you do not start the engine beforethe glow plug activation time ends, youwill need to reset the glow plugs byturning the key to off.
3. After the engine starts, allow it to idlefor about 15 seconds. This is to protectthe engine. Do not increase enginespeed until the oil pressure gaugeindicates normal pressure.

Cold Weather Operation
Note: Idling in cold weather does not heatthe engine to its normal operatingtemperature. Long periods of idling,
especially in cold weather, can cause abuildup of deposits which can cause enginedamage.
Changing to a lighter grade engine oil alsomakes starting easier under theseconditions. Refer to Engine oilspecifications. See TechnicalSpecifications(page 56).
Diesel fuel is adjusted seasonally for coldtemperatures. Diesel fuel which has notbeen properly formulated for the ambientconditions may gel which can clog the fuelfilters. One indication that the fuel filter(s)may be clogged is if the engine starts, stallsafter a short time, and then does notrestart. If you have been using biodiesel,you may need to use a fuel with lowerbiodiesel content, try another brand, ordiscontinue using biodiesel. Do not usealcohol based additives to correct fuelgelling. This may result in damage to thefuel injectors and system. Use the proper
anti-gel and performance improvementproduct. See Technical Specifications(page 56).
Your vehicle is equipped with a fuel andwater separator that recirculates fuel fromthe engine to help prevent fuel filterclogging. To avoid engine fuel starvationduring cold weather operation of 32F(0C) or below, we recommended thatthe fuel level in your tank should not dropbelow 14 full. This helps prevent air fromentering the fuel system and stalling theengine.
Your vehicle is equipped with a selectivecatalyst reduction system that uses dieselexhaust fluid to operate properly. You needto replenish your diesel exhaust fluid atcertain intervals. When filling your vehicles
diesel exhaust fluid tank in cold weather,you must take special care to preventdamage to the tank. See SelectiveCatalytic Reduction System(page 20).
In cold weather below 32F (0C), theengine may slowly increase to a higher idlespeed if left idling in P (Park). As the enginewarms-up, the engine sound leveldecreases due to the activation ofPCM-controlled sound reduction features.
If you operate your vehicle in a heavysnowstorm or blowing snow conditions,snow and ice can clog the engine airinduction. If this occurs, the engine mayexperience a significant reduction in poweroutput. At the earliest opportunity, clearall the snow and/or ice away from insidethe air filter assembly. Remove the aircleaner cover and the pleated paper filter,leaving the foam filter in and remove anysnow or ice. Make sure you install the foamfilter correctly in place. Remove any debris,snow or ice on the foam filter by brushingthe surface with soft brush. Once you havecleared all of the debris, reinstall the airfilter and assembly.
Do not use water, solvents, or a hard brushfor cleaning the foam filter.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of vehicle damageand/or personal burn injuries do not
start your engine with the air filterremoved and do not remove it while theengine is running.

The following cold weather idlingguidelines are recommended:
You can use Motorcraft cetane
improvers or non-alcohol-basedcetane improvers from a reputablemanufacturer as needed.
Maintain the engine cooling systemproperly.
Avoid shutting the engine down afteran extensive idling period. Drive yourvehicle for several miles with theengine at normal operatingtemperatures under a moderate load.
Consider using an engine block heater.
For extended idle times use anapproved idle speed increase device.
Winter Operating Tips for ArcticOperation -20F (-29C) and Below
The following information is a guidelineonly and is no to be the only source ofpossible solutions in resolving extremecold temperature issues.
Starting Aids
WARNING
Do not use starting fluid, such asether, in the air intake system (seeair filter decal). Such fluid could
cause immediate explosive damage to theengine and possible personal injury.
The use of the factory engine block heater
assists in engine starting in extreme coldambient temperatures. Refer to Engineblock heater in the Starting and Stoppingthe Engine chapter of your OwnersManual.
Idle Control
Your vehicle may have a factory option fora stationary elevated idle control throughdash-mounted upfitter switches thatallows the operator to elevate the idle rpm

Operation in Snow and Rain
Vehicle operation in heavy snowfall orextreme rain conditions may feedexcessive amounts of snow or water into
the air intake system. This could plug theair filter with snow and may cause theengine to lose power and possibly shutdown.
We recommend the following actions afteroperating your vehicle up to 200 miles(320 kilometers) in snowfall or extremerain:
Snow: At the earliest opportunity, openthe hood and clear all the snow and icefrom the air filter housing inlet (do notremove the foam filter) and reset theair filter restriction gauge.
Note: Removal of the foam filter degradesyour vehicle performance during snow andhot weather conditions.
Extreme rain: The air filter dries afterabout 1530 minutes at highwayspeeds. At the earliest opportunity,open the hood and reset the air filterrestriction gauge.
Refer to Air filter and restriction gauge inthe Maintenance chapter for moreinformation. See Changing the EngineAir Filter(page 49).
Operation in Standing Water
Ingestion of water into the diesel enginecan result in immediate and severedamage to the engine. If driving throughwater, slow down to avoid splashing waterinto the intake. If the engine stalls, and yoususpect ingestion of water into the engine,do not try to restart the engine. Consultyour dealer for service immediately.
Your fuel tank vents to the atmosphere byvalves on top of the tank and through thefuel cap. If water reaches the top of thetank, the valves may pull water into thefuel tank. Water in the fuel can cause
performance issues and damage the fuelinjection system.
SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition to the off position.
To prolong engine life (especially afterextended high speed, high ambienttemperature, or high GVW/GCW operation,such as heavy loads or heavy trailers), it is
recommended that a hot engine be idledfor 3-5 minutes. This allows theturbocharged engine to cool down. Formore information on GVW/GCW, see theLoad Carrying chapter in your OwnersManual.
ENGINE IDLE SHUTDOWN
Your vehicle may be equipped with anengine idle shutdown system. This systemautomatically shuts down your enginewhen it has been idling in P(Park) or N(Neutral) for five minutes (parking brakeset) or 15 minutes (parking brake not set).When the engine idle shutdown processhas started:
A chime sounds and the informationdisplay will show ENGINE TURNS OFFIN 30 (seconds) and start countingdown
You can restart the five or 15-minutetimer by changing the position of theaccelerator pedal, brake pedal or thepark brake within the final 30 seconds
When the timer reaches zero, theengine shuts down and this messagewill appear in your information displayENGINE TURNED OFF

FUEL QUALITY
Fuel Requirements - Choosing TheRight Fuel: Vehicles Operated
Where Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel FuelIs 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 willsignificantly increase your vehicles exhaustemissions and reduce engine life due toincreased internal wear.
You should use Ultra-Low Sulfur Dieselfuel (also known as ULSD) designated asnumber 1-D or 2-D with a maximum of15-ppm sulfur in your diesel vehicle. Youmay operate your vehicle on diesel fuelscontaining up to 20% biodiesel, alsoknown as B20. These fuels should meetthe ASTM D975 diesel or the ASTM D7467
B6-B20 biodiesel industry specifications.Outside of North America, use fuelsmeeting EN590 or equivalent local marketstandard.
Using low sulfur diesel fuel(16-500 ppm) or high sulfurdiesel fuel (greater than 500
ppm) in your diesel engine will causecertain emission components tomalfunction which may also cause theservice engine soon light to illuminate
indicating an emissions-related concern.Diesel fuel is adjusted seasonally for coldtemperature. For best results attemperatures below 20F (-7C), it isrecommended to use a diesel fuel whichhas been seasonally adjusted for theambient conditions.
Fuel Requirements - Choosing TheRight Fuel: Vehicles OperatedWhere Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel FuelIs 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 usingFord Motor Company dealer service parts.Failure to use retrofit components otherthan those available through yourauthorized dealer will result in coolant
system damage, engine overheating,selective catalyst reduction system ordiesel particulate filter damage andpossible 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(16500 ppm) or high sulfur diesel fuel(greater than 500 ppm) in a diesel enginedesigned to use only Ultra Low Sulfur
Diesel fuel may result in damage to engineemission control devices and theaftertreatment system, potentiallyrendering the vehicle inoperable.
Vehicles with engines configured for usewith high sulfur diesel fuel are onlyavailable for sale in countries where ultralow sulfur diesel fuel is generally notavailable or mandated by the government.Vehicles originally sold in a ultra low sulfurdiesel fuel market that are subsequently
exported to non- ultra low sulfur diesel fuelmarkets will need to be retrofitted (at thecustomers expense using Ford authorizeddealer service parts) in order to be reliablyoperated on non- ultra low sulfur dieselfuel.

Biodiesel
WARNING
Do not use home heating oil,agricultural fuel, raw fats and oils,waste cooking greases, biodiesel
fuels greater than 20% or any diesel fuelnot intended for highway use. Damage tothe fuel injection system, engine andexhaust catalyst can occur if an improperfuel is used. Do not add gasoline, gasoholor alcohol to diesel fuel. This practicecreates a serious fire hazard and engineperformance problems.
You may 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
Follow the recommended servicemaintenance intervals. See GeneralMaintenance Information(page 58).
Do not store biodiesel fuel in the fueltank for more than 1 month
Consider changing brands or reducing
biodiesel content if you have coldtemperature fuel gelling issues or afrequent LOW FUEL PRESSUREmessage appearing
Do NOT use raw oils, fats or wastecooking greases
Use of biodiesel in concentrations greaterthan 20% may cause damage to yourvehicle, including engine and/or exhaustafter-treatment hardware (exhaustcatalyst and particulate filter) failures.
Concentrations greater than 20% can alsocause fuel filter restrictions that may resultin a lack of power or damage to fuelsystem components, including fuel pumpand fuel injector failures.
SAE 5W-40 or SAE 15W-40 oil isrecommended for fuels with greater than5% biodiesel (B5). Refer to the Specialoperating conditions section under theSchedule Maintenance chapter for moreinformation about oil change intervals andother maintenance when operating onbiodiesel.
Look for a label on the fuel pump toconfirm the amount of biodiesel containedin a diesel fuel. Biodiesel content is oftenindicated with the letter B followed by thepercent of biodiesel in the fuel. Forexample, B20 indicates a fuel containing20% biodiesel. Ask the service stationattendant to confirm the biodiesel contentof a diesel fuel if you do not see a label onthe fuel pump.
Biodiesel fuels degrade more easily thandiesel fuels not containing biodiesel andshould not be stored in the fuel tank formore than 1 month. If you plan to park orstore your vehicle for more than 1 month,then you should empty your vehicle fueltank of biodiesel fuel. You should fill thetank with a pure petroleum-based dieselfuel and run your vehicle for a minimum of
30 minutes.Note: Degraded or oxidized biodiesel candamage fuel system seals and plastics andcorrode steel parts.
During cold weather, if you have problemsoperating on biodiesel, you may need touse a diesel fuel with lower biodieselcontent, try another brand, or discontinuethe use of biodiesel.

Diesel Fuel Additives
It should not be necessary to add anyaftermarket additives to your fuel if youuse a high quality diesel fuel that conforms
to ASTM industry specifications.Aftermarket additives can damage the fuelinjector system or engine.
Use Motorcraft cetane booster or anequivalent cetane booster additive if yoususpect fuel has low cetane. UseMotorcraft anti-gel & performanceimprover or an equivalent additive if thereis fuel gelling.
Do not use alcohol-based additives toimprove cetane quality, to prevent fuelgelling or any other use. The use of alcoholadditives may result in damage to the fuelinjectors and system. See TechnicalSpecifications(page 56).
Your warranty may not cover repairsneeded to correct the effects of using anaftermarket product that does not meetFord specifications in your fuel.
Note: Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel fuel isdesigned to meet the emissions standards
for the 6.7L engine and is backwardcompatible as well (for example, it can beused in the 7.3L, 6.9L, 6.4L and 6.0L dieselengines in Ford vehicles.
Fuel And Water Separator
Your vehicle is equipped with a diesel fuelconditioner module located on theframe-rail under the driver-side floorboardnear the transmission.
You should drain water from themodule assembly whenever thewarning light comes on and the
message center directs you to drain thewater separator. This will occur when
approximately 0.32 pints (150 ml) of wateraccumulates in the module. If you allowthe water level to exceed this level, thewater may pass through to the engine andmay cause fuel injection equipmentdamage.
Draining the Diesel Fuel ConditionerModule (DFCM)
WARNING
Your vehicle must be stopped withthe engine off when draining theDiesel Fuel Conditioner Module. Fuel
may ignite if the separator is drained whilethe engine is running or vehicle is moving.
Note: If you drain the diesel fuel conditionermodule while the system is running air willenter into the fuel system. The engine willnot operate properly if air enters the system.
Note: With fuel tank levels above 34 tankit may be necessary to loosen the bowl 3turns before opening the drain. This willactuate an anti-siphon valve at the fuel andwater separator inlet and prevent the fuelfrom siphoning out of the tank.
Note:A loose drain valve can allow air toenter the fuel system and cause drivetrainissues. The engine will not operate properly.Be sure that you fully tighten the drain valve.
1. Stop your vehicle and shut off theengine.
2. Locate the diesel fuel conditionermodule and place an appropriatecontainer under the drain port.

3. Rotate the drain counterclockwise untilthe O-ring is visible. Allow the dieselfuel conditioner module to drain for
approximately 25 seconds or untilclean fuel is observed. Rotate the drainclockwise to tighten it. If no liquiddrains, there may be a clog in the drain.Have the conditioner module servicedby an authorized dealer.
4. Make sure that you fully tighten thedrain valve and then remove thecontainer from under your vehicle.
5. Restart the engine. If the WATER INFUEL DRAIN FILTER or WATER IN FUEL
DRAIN FILTER SEE MANUAL messageand light continues to illuminate, havethe fuel system checked and repaired.
Low Fuel Pressure
The engine is equipped with a low fuelpressure detection system. Here are somepossible causes if a low fuel pressuremessage appears in the informationdisplay:
Cold start or during cold operation(below 32F (0C): If the low fuelpressure message appears during acold start or up to 10 minutes after theinitial cold start, monitor theinformation display. If the low fuelpressure message disappears and doesnot re-appear after the engine has fullywarmed up, waxed or gelled fuel is
what most likely caused the message.Do not use alcohol based additives tocorrect fuel gelling. This may result indamage to the fuel injectors andsystems. Use an anti-gel additive. See
Technical Specifications(page 56).
Note: Your customer warranty may be voidfrom using additives that do not meet orexceed Ford specifications. If the low fuelpressure message persistently appears afterre-fueling during the cold start and coldoperation conditions defined previously andthen disappear when the engine has fullywarmed up, consider different fuel sources.
Low fuel operation: If the low fuel
pressure message appears when yourvehicle is warm and during low fueltank level operation (near empty),refuel your vehicle. If the messagereappears after fueling, see below. Ifthe message does not come back, thelow fuel pressure condition was due tolow fuel levels in the fuel tank.
Normal operation: If the low fuelpressure message appears duringnormal operation when the engine is
fully warm, and fuel level is not low,you must change the fuel filtersregardless of the maintenanceschedule interval.
If replacement of the fuel filter doesnot remedy the low fuel pressuremessage during normal operation asdefined above, take the vehicle to anauthorized dealer.
Changing the Engine-Mounted and
Diesel Fuel Conditioner Module FuelFilters
Your vehicle is equipped with two fuelfilters. The first filter mounts on top of theengine on the drivers side. The secondfilter, inside the diesel fuel conditionermodule, is mounted on the frame rail underthe drivers side floorboard near thetransmission. You should replace both

Note: The engine will not run properly if youdo not install the diesel fuel conditionermodule fuel filter in the housing or if thefilter bowl is not tightened to themechanical stop.
Note: You will need to purge the system ofair after removal or changing of the filter.See purging air from the fuel system laterin this chapter.
Removal - Engine-mounted fuel filter
The engine-mounted fuel filter is a plasticdisposable cartridge. To remove it, do thefollowing:
E163363
1. Disconnect both fuel lines by squeezingthe connector tabs and pulling the linesstraight off.
E163364
Note:Although the fuel system is not fullypressurized when the vehicle is off, someresidual pressure may remain in the fuelsystem since it can take some time for thepressure to completely bleed off. Therefore,
we recommend you place a shop rag belowthe filter connectors to absorb the smallamount of fuel that will drain.
2. Rotate the filter fully counterclockwiseuntil the peg is at the far end of the slot.
3. Pull the filter straight up from thebracket and discard the filter.
Installation Engine-mounted fuelfilter
1. Install the new filter into the filterbracket. Turn the filter clockwise tolock it in place.
2. Reconnect both fuel lines.
Note: Using a fuel that has more thanaverage impurities may require you toreplace the fuel filter more frequently thanthe service interval specifies.
Note: You will need to purge the system ofair after removal or changing of the filter.
See purging air from the fuel system laterin this chapter.
Purging air from the fuel system
Turn the ignition key to on for 30 seconds,then turn it to off. Do this six times in a rowto purge any trapped air from the fuelsystem.
After filter service, a no start or roughrunning engine may indicate that air is
entering the system through the filter bowlseal or drain. Make sure the drain is tightand you tightened the filter bowl to themechanical stop.

SELECTIVE CATALYTICREDUCTION SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with a selective
catalytic reduction system to help reduceemission levels of oxides of nitrogen fromthe exhaust of the diesel engine. Thesystem automatically injects dieselexhaust fluid into the exhaust system toenable proper selective catalytic reductionfunction.
Importance of maintaining theDiesel Exhaust Fluid level
In order for the selective catalytic reduction
system to operate properly, the dieselexhaust fluid level must be maintained.Generally, the diesel exhaust fluid tankshould be filled during the oil changeservice interval. See GeneralMaintenance Information(page 58).However, certain conditions or drivingstyles, such as trailer towing or fast ratesof acceleration, will require the refilling ofthe diesel exhaust fluid tank more often.
The engine control unit will monitor the
amount of fluid available in the dieselexhaust fluid tank. Running a system checkin the message center will indicate whetherthe diesel exhaust fluid level is ok or if it isless than 1/2 full. A message will display inthe message center when the dieselexhaust fluid level is low and needs to berefilled. When you see this message, youshould refill your tank. See the Informationdisplays chapter of your Owners Manualfor information display functions. For
instructions on refilling your diesel exhaustfluid tank, see filling the diesel exhaustfluid tank in this supplement.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid warningmessages and vehicle operations
WARNINGS
Diesel exhaust fluid must be refilledwhen low or replaced whencontaminated or the vehicle speed
will be speed limited to 50 mph (80 km/h).In these conditions, drive with caution andrefill diesel exhaust fluid immediately. Ifthe diesel exhaust fluid becomes emptyor contaminated and fluid is not replaced,your vehicle will become limited to idlespeed only once stopped. In theseconditions, be cautious where you stopyour vehicle because you may not be able
to drive long distances and will not be ableto maintain highway speeds until dieselexhaust fluid is refilled or replaced.
Tampering or disabling your vehiclesexhaust aftertreatment system willresult in severe vehicle performance
limitation including eventual speed limitingto 5 mph.
Your vehicles information display will
display a series of messages regarding theamount of diesel exhaust fluid available.A systems check will display messagesindicating the amount of diesel exhaustfluid available (OK or under 12 full) or willproduce a warning message that displaysthe mileage (kilometers) remaining as thefluid in the diesel exhaust fluid tank nearsempty. For more information on warningmessages, see the Information Displayschapter of your Owners Manual.
E163176
As the diesel exhaust fluid levelnears empty, the diesel exhaustfluid warning symbol will be
displayed and chimes will sound with themessages starting at 500 miles (805 km)remaining before diesel exhaust fluid isdepleted. The warning symbol andmessages will continue until you refill thediesel exhaust fluid tank.

Continued driving without refilling willresult in the following actions as requiredby the California Air Resources Board(CARB) and the U.S. EnvironmentalProtection Agency (EPA):
Within a certain number of miles(kilometers) to empty, speed will belimited upon vehicle restart. Prior tothis occurring a message will appear inthe information display.
Further vehicle operation withoutrefilling your diesel exhaust fluid tankwill cause the engine to enter anidle-only condition. This will only occurupon vehicle refueling or at an
extended idle. A message will indicatethe required actions to resume normaloperation. It is required to add aminimum of 0.5 gallons (1.9L) of dieselexhaust fluid to the tank to exit theidle-only condition, but your vehicle willstill be in the speed-limiting mode untilyou refill the tank completely.
For either vehicle speed limiting or idle-onlycondition, normal vehicle operation willresume when you refill the diesel exhaustfluid tank.
Note: When filling the diesel exhaust fluidtank from empty, there may be a short delaybefore detecting the increased level of fluid.The increased level detection must occurbefore your vehicle returns to full power.

6. Once the level in the diesel exhaustfluid bottle has stopped dropping,return the container to the verticalposition slightly below the dieselexhaust fluid filler port and let any
diesel exhaust fluid drain out of thespout. DO NOT try to continue to adddiesel exhaust fluid to the tank byshaking or repositioning the containerto induce flow. This may cause spillingand overfill the tank. Overfilling thediesel exhaust fluid tank can causedamage to the tank.
7. Once the spout has drained, removethe spout from the diesel exhaust fluidfiller port and install the blue cap on
the diesel exhaust fluid filler port.
8. Remove the spout from the dieselexhaust fluid container and install thecap back on the bottle.
9. If the container is empty, discard theempty container, or recycle if possible.If there is diesel exhaust fluid left in thecontainer, retain it for later use. Thespout is re-useable; after use, rinse itwith clean water and store the spout
to keep it clean. Do not use the dieselexhaust fluid spout with any otherchemicals.
10. Wipe away any diesel exhaust fluidthat has spilled on painted surfaceswith water and a damp cloth.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid filling station nozzlefill
Filling the diesel exhaust fluid tank usinga nozzle is similar to a normal fuel fill. The
nozzle will shut off automatically when thetank is full. Do not continue to fill the tankas this may cause spilling and overfill cancause damage to the tank.
Note:Some filling station nozzles mayprevent filling of your diesel exhaust fluidtank due to a magnetic mechanism in thenozzle. This is not a problem with yourvehicle. To refill your tank either locate
another filling station or use a bottle to refillthe tank.
Filling the Diesel Exhaust Fluid tank incold climates
Diesel exhaust fluid will freeze below 12F(-11C); however, your vehicle is equippedwith an automatic preheating systemwhich allows the diesel exhaust fluidsystem to operate below 12F (-11C).When your vehicle is not in operation for
an extended period with temperatures ator below 12F (-11C), the diesel exhaustfluid tank could freeze. If the tank isOVERFILLED and freezes, it could bedamaged, therefore DO NOT OVERFILL.
To prevent overfilling of the diesel exhaustfluid tank when filling with a bottle, Fordrecommends using Motorcraft dieselexhaust fluid. Additionally, if theinformation display indicates EXHAUSTFLUID UNDER 1/2 FULL, you should onlyadd a MAXIMUM of 2 gallons (6.7L) ofdiesel exhaust fluid to the tank to preventfreeze damage due to overfilling. If theinformation display indicates EXHAUSTFLUID LEVEL OK, do not add dieselexhaust fluid.

Fueling Tips
WARNING
Do not use starting fluid such as
ether or gasoline in the diesel airintake system. Such fluids can causeimmediate explosive damage to the engineand possible personal injury.
Truck stops have pumps and nozzlesdesigned for larger, heavy-duty trucks.When refueling at truck stops: if the nozzleshuts off repeatedly when refueling, wait510 seconds; then use a slower rate offlow (dont depress the nozzle trigger as
far).
If air is allowed to enter the fuel system(during fuel filter change or if you run outof fuel) the engine will purge the trappedair as it runs. To purge the air sooner: priorto engine start, prime the system by turningthe key to on for 30 seconds then to off.Repeat this several times. The engine mayrun rough and produce white smoke while
air is in the system. This is normal.An engine that suddenly becomes noisy oroperates poorly after a fuel fill could beusing substandard fuel (for example, highwater content, low cetane rating orgasoline in the fuel). You should purchasediesel fuel from a reputable station thatsells a large amount of diesel fuel.
Use only clean, approved containers thatwill prevent the entry of dirt or waterwhenever you store diesel fuel.
Diesel fuel must not be stored in agalvanized container. The fuel will dissolvethe zinc in the galvanized container. Thezinc will then remain in the fuel. If you runthe contaminated fuel through the engine,the zinc will deposit in the fuel injectorscausing expensive-to-repair damage.

Diesel fuel dispensing nozzle fill rate
Your truck is equipped with a fuel fill pipethat is able to accept fuel up to 20 gallonsper minute from an 118 fuel-dispensing
nozzle. Pumping fuel at greater flow ratesmay result in premature nozzle shut-off orspit back.
Fuel filler cap
WARNINGS
The fuel system may be underpressure. If the fuel filler cap isventing vapor or if you hear a hissing
sound, wait until it stops before completelyremoving the fuel filler cap. Otherwise, fuelmay spray out and injure you or others.
If you do not use the proper fuel fillercap, excessive pressure or vacuumin the fuel tank may damage the fuel
system or cause the fuel cap to disengagein a collision, which may result in possiblepersonal injury.
Note: If you must replace the fuel filler cap,replace it with a fuel filler cap designed for
your vehicle. The vehicle warranty may bevoid for any damage to the fuel tank or fuelsystem if the correct genuine Ford orMotorcraft fuel filler cap is not used.
Your fuel tank filler cap has an indexeddesign with a 1/4 turn on/off feature.
When fueling your vehicle:
1. Turn the engine off.
2. Carefully turn the filler capcounterclockwise until it spins off.
3. Pull to remove the cap from the fuelfiller pipe.
4. To install the cap, align the tabs on thecap with the notches on the filler pipe.
5. Turn the filler cap clockwise 1/4 of aturn until it clicks at least once.
EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
Diesel Exhaust System: OxidationCatalyst And Diesel Particulate
Filter System(If Equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with a dieselparticulate filter. The diesel particulatefilter is an inline filter in the exhaust systemthat reduces carbon emissions by trappingexhaust particles before they reach thetailpipe. The diesel particulate filter lookssimilar to a traditional exhaust catalyst,except larger, and is part of the exhaustsystem under the vehicle. The filter couplesto a diesel oxidation catalyst that reduces
the amount of harmful exhaust emittedfrom the tailpipe. As soot gathers in thesystem, it begins to restrict the filter. Youneed to periodically clean the soot thatgathers inside the. You can clean the sootin two different ways, passive regenerationand active regeneration. Both methodsoccur automatically and require no actionsfrom the driver. During either one of theseregeneration methods, you may notice achange in exhaust tone. At certain times,
the information display will display variousmessages related to the diesel particulatefilter. See the Information Displays chapterin the Owner Guide for more information.
Passive regeneration
In passive regeneration, the hightemperature of the exhaust systemautomatically cleans the filter, or reducesthe soot level, by burning (oxidizing) thesoot. This high exhaust temperature occurs
naturally because of normal engineoperating conditions (at varying levels, dueto driving patterns.

Diesel particulate filter maintenance
You must properly maintain your dieselparticulate filter in order for it to functionproperly. Do not disregard theEXHAUST
OVERLOADED DRIVE TO CLEANandEXHAUST AT LIMIT DRIVE TO CLEANNOWmaintenance messages otherwisesystem damage could result that yourwarranty may not cover.
Failure to perform active or operatorcommanded regeneration when instructedmight result in a clogged diesel particulatefilter that your dealer cannot clean. If yourdiesel particulate filter fills beyond whatcan safely be regenerated, active
regeneration and operator commandedregeneration will be disabled. This couldresult in irreversible damage to the filterrequiring replacement that your warrantymay not cover. If your vehicle is notequipped with operator commandedregeneration, check with your dealer foravailability.
Once the diesel particulate filter is full ofexhaust particles, the engine controlmodule will command the exhaust system
to clean the filter through a process calledactive regeneration. Active regenerationrequires the engine computer to raise theexhaust temperature to eliminate theparticles. During cleaning, the particlesconvert to harmless gasses. Once cleanedthe diesel particulate filter will then beready to continue trapping exhaustparticles.
The regeneration process operates moreefficiently when you safely operate yourvehicle at least 30 mph (48 km/h) with asteady pedal for approximately 20 minutesto complete the process. The frequencyand duration of regeneration will fluctuateby how you drive your vehicle, outside airtemperature, and altitude. For most driving,regeneration frequency will vary from 100
- 500 miles (161 - 805 km) betweenoccurrences and each occurrence will lastfrom 9 - 20 minutes. You can usuallyreduce the duration of regeneration if youmaintain a constant speed above 30 mph
(48 km/h).
When the engine control module detectsthat the diesel particulate filter is nearlyfull of particulates and you are notoperating your in a manner to alloweffective automatic cleaning, theinformation display will display EXHOVERLOADED DRIVE TO CLEANforbase information display and ExhaustOverloaded Drive to Cleanfor theoptional information display. Thesemessages appear as a reminder for you todrive in order to clean the diesel particulatefilter. If you operate your vehicle in amanner to allow effective automaticcleaning, the information display willdisplay a cleaning exhaust filter message,which is the normal regeneration process.See the Information Displays chapter ofthe Owner Guide for more information.
You can also choose operator commandedregeneration to clean the exhaust systemat this point. See How to start operatorcommanded regeneration later in thischapter.
If you are not able to drive in a manner thatallows effective automatic cleaning (activeregeneration) or you choose to performregeneration of the diesel particulate filter(cleaning) while at idle (stationary), thenoperator commanded regeneration wouldneed to be performed. See operator

a drive time is less than 10 - 15 minutes orthe vehicle does not fully warm up, passiveand active regeneration may notsufficiently clean the diesel particulatefilter system. Operator commandedregeneration allows you to manually startregeneration of the diesel particulate filterat idle (while stationary) to clean the filter.If you are not sure whether your vehicle isequipped with this feature, contact anauthorized dealer.
When to perform Operator CommandedRegeneration
Use the Operator CommandedRegeneration feature when the EXHOVERLOADED DRIVE TO CLEANmessage appears in the informationdisplay and:
the operator is not able to drive inmanner that allows effectiveautomatic cleaning (active
regeneration), or the operator instead wishes to
manually start regeneration (cleaning)of the diesel particulate filter while thevehicle is idle (stationary).
Operator Commanded Regenerationprecautions and safe exhaust position
WARNING
Failure to comply with the following
instructions for operatorcommanded regeneration may result
in fire, serious injury, death and/or propertydamage.
Before you start operator commandedregeneration, do the following:
Place your vehicle in P(Park) with theparking brake set on stable, levelground
You must park your vehicle outside ofany structure
Your vehicle must be 10 15 feet (3 5 meters) away from any obstructionsand must be away from materials thatcan easily combust or melt (forexample, paper, leaves, petroleumproducts, fuels, plastics and other dryorganic material)
Make sure there is a minimum of 1/8tank of fuel
Make sure all fluids are at proper levels
Make sure that the louvers (holes) locatedat the tip of the exhaust are also clear ofany obstructions as they are used tointroduce fresh air into the tailpipe to coolthe exhaust gas as it leaves. See Cleaningthe Exhaust(page 53).
How to start Operator CommandedRegeneration
WARNING
Stay clear of exhaust tip duringregeneration. You or others can beburned.
Note: You cannot use the operatorcommanded regeneration until the dieselparticulate filter load percentage hasreached 100% (Full). The diesel particulatefilter load percentage will fluctuate up anddown when driving your vehicle due to active
and passive regenerations.Note: During the use of operatorcommanded regeneration, you may observea light amount of white smoke. This isnormal.
You cannot use the operatorcommanded if the service enginesoon light is illuminated.

Information display procedure
Start with your vehicle engine fully warmedand then press the Info button on thesteering wheel until the information display
reads one of the following choices:If you have warmed your vehicle up andthe diesel particulate filter needs cleaning,a message requesting permission to initiatefilter cleaning will be displayed EXHSTXX% FULL CLEAN? Y/Nor EXHAUSTFULL CLEAN? Y/N. Answer yes to thisprompt and then follow the promptsregarding exhaust position as needed toinitiate Operator CommandedRegeneration. Be sure to understand each
prompt. If you are not sure what is beingasked by each prompt, contact anauthorized dealer. The display will confirmthe operation has started and when it hasfinished.
If you have warmed your vehicleup and the diesel particulatefilter is near or at saturation, the
powertrain fault indicator will illuminateand message requesting permission toinitiate filter cleaning will be displayed
EXH AT LIMIT CLEAN? Y/N. Answer yesto this prompt and then follow theprompts regarding exhaust position asneeded to initiate Operator CommandedRegeneration. Be sure to understand eachprompt. If you are not sure what is beingasked by each prompt, contact anauthorized dealer. The display will confirmthe operation has started and when it hasfinished. You can also drive to clean thefilter. See Active regeneration earlier in this
chapter.The service engine soon light willilluminate and the followingmessage EXH OVER LIMIT
SERVICE NOWwill appear when thesystem is at the point of oversaturation.You will not be able to allow cleaning. Youmust have your vehicle serviced by anauthorized dealer.
Once operator commanded regenerationstarts, the engines rpm will rise toapproximately 2,000 - 2,400 rpm and thecooling fan will increase speed; you willhear a change in audible sound due to the
fan and engine speed increase.
It is not necessary to open the hood on theengine compartment. Once operatorcommanded regeneration is complete, theengine rpm and fan will return to normalidling. The exhaust system will remain veryhot for several minutes even afterregeneration is complete. Do not repositionthe vehicle over materials that could burnuntil the exhaust system has had sufficienttime to cool. Depending on the amount ofsoot collected by the diesel particulatefilter, ambient temperature, and altitude,operator commanded regeneration maylast from 10 to 25 minutes.
How to interrupt or cancel OperatorCommanded Regeneration
If you need to cancel the operatorcommanded regeneration, pressing thebrake, accelerator, or shutting off thevehicle will stop the procedure. Dependingon the amount of time you allowed theoperator commanded regeneration tooperate, soot may not have had sufficienttime to be eliminated, but the exhaustsystem and exhaust gas may still be hot.If you shut your vehicle off during operatorcommanded regeneration, you will noticeturbo flutter. This is a normal consequencecaused by shutting off a diesel engineduring boosted operation and is considerednormal.
Filter service and maintenance
Over time, a slight amount of ash will buildup in the diesel particulate filter, which isnot removed during the regenerationprocess. The filter may need to be removedfor ash cleaning at approximately 120,000miles (193,000 km) or greater (actualmileage can vary greatly depending upon

vehicle operating conditions.
In both cases, the engine controlsystem will set a service light toinform you to bring the vehicle
to the dealer for service.
If there are any issues with the dieselparticulate filter system a service light willbe set by the engine control system toinform you to bring your vehicle into anauthorized dealer for service.

Resonator and Tailpipe assemblymaintenance
WARNINGS
Failure to maintain the functionalholes, in the tailpipe section of theexhaust, clean and free of debris or
foreign material may result in the holesbecoming blocked or plugged. Do notmodify or remove the tail-pipe section.Blocked or plugged holes orremoval/modification of the system couldresult in elevated exhaust gastemperatures which may result invehicle/property damage or personal
injury.
The normal operating temperatureof the exhaust system is very high.Never work around or attempt to
repair any part of the exhaust system untilit has cooled. Use special care whenworking around the diesel oxidationcatalytic converter and/or the dieselparticulate filter (DPF). The diesel
WARNINGS
oxidation catalytic converter and/or theDPF heats up to a high temperature afteronly a short period of engine operation and
can stay hot even after the engine is turnedoff. Failure to follow these instructions mayresult in personal injury.
Note:Additions of aftermarket devices ormodifications to the exhaust system canreduce the effectiveness of the exhaustsystem as well as cause damage to theexhaust system or engine. These actionsmay also affect your vehicles warranty. Seethe Warranty Guide for more information.
The diesel resonator tail-pipe assembly isa uniquely functioning device thataccompanies the diesel particulate filterassembly. The tail-pipe assembly servesmultiple functions. First, it serves as anacoustic device to attenuate exhaust noise.Second, it provides an exit path for theexhaust from your vehicle. It also helpscontrol the temperature of the exhaustduring diesel particulate filter regenerationevents. The visible holes in each leg of the
twin tip and the holes under the shield justinboard of the right rear tire(s) arefunctional. You need to keep the holesclear of mud, debris or foreign material tomaintain proper function of the exhaustsystem. Clean and remove debris or foreignmaterial if present as needed. Sprayingwith a hose during regular washing of yourvehicle should help keep holes clean andclear of debris or foreign material.
