ELECTRONIC SHIFT 4WD SYSTEM*

The electronic shi 4WD system allows you to choose between 4x2, 4x4 AUTO*, 4x4 HIGH or 4x4 LOW.

2H (4x2) sends power to the rear wheels only and should be used for street and highway driving. Provides optimal smoothness and fuel economy at high speeds.

4A (4x4 AUTO)* provides electronic control four-wheel drive with power delivered to the front and rear wheels, as required, for increased traction. This is appropriate for all on-road driving conditions, including dry road surfaces, but is especially useful on wet pavement, snow, dirt or gravel.

4H (4x4 HIGH) helps provide extra traction while driving in snow or on icy roads or o road situations. This mode is not intended for use on dry pavement.

4L (4x4 LOW) uses extra gearing to provide maximum power to all four wheels at reduced speeds. Intended only for o-road applications such as deep sand, steep grades or pulling heavy objects. 4L (4x4 LOW) does not engage while the vehicle is moving above 3 mph (5 km/h); this is normal and should be no reason for concern.

6 – 7

Refer to Shiing to or from 4L (4x4 LOW) in the Four-Wheel Drive chapter of your Owner’s Manual for details.

ELECTRONIC LOCKING DIFFERENTIAL*

When engaged, the system temporarily locks the rear axle, allowing both rear wheels to turn at the same speed. This function helps to provide additional traction as needed.

Note: Do not use this feature on dry pavement or hard-surfaced roads.

To use:

4X4: Pull the 4WD control.

4X2: Turn the

control to ON.

The indicator light

continuously

displays in the cluster when the ELD is active.

PRO TRAILER BACKUP ASSIST*

The Pro Trailer Backup Assist control knob helps assist you in backing up your trailer. Turn the knob in the direction you want the trailer to go and the system will take over the steering to get it there. This system will not work until you set

it up. See the Pro Trailer Backup Assist Quick Start Guide in your Owner's Manual portfolio for the complete set

up and operation details.

INTEGRATED TRAILER BRAKE CONTROLLER*

The fully integrated trailer brake controller assists in smooth and eective trailer braking by powering the trailer’s electric or electric-over hydraulic brakes with a proportional output based on the towing vehicle’s brake pressure.

The Gain setting is used to set the trailer brake controller for speciﬁc towing conditions and should be changed as towing conditions change. Changes to towing conditions include trailer load, vehicle load, road conditions and weather.

Use the Gain + and – adjustment buttons to increase or decrease the braking feature’s power output to the trailer in 0.5 increments.

Adjust the Gain by:

1. Pressing the Gain+ or Gain–

buttons to increase or decrease the setting to the desired starting point. For example, a Gain setting of 6.0 is a good starting point for heavier loads.

2. Test the adjusted Gain setting

again aer you make adjustments.

When testing:

A. In a trac-free environment,

tow the trailer on a dry, level surface at a speed of 20-25 mph (30-40 km/h) and squeeze the manual control lever completely.

B. If the trailer wheels lock

up (the tires will squeal), reduce the Gain setting. If the trailer wheels turn freely, increase the Gain setting.

C. The proper Gain setting will

be at the point just below trailer wheel lock-up.

Note: If towing a heavier trailer, trailer wheel lock-up may not be attainable even with the maximum Gain setting of 10.

EASY FUEL® SYSTEM

The Easy Fuel system is self-sealing and therefore protected against dust, dirt, water, snow and ice. Open the fuel ﬁller door, insert the nozzle and start fueling. Wait at least 10 seconds aer pumping the fuel before removing the fuel ﬁller nozzle. This allows the residual fuel to drain into the tank.

To refuel using a portable fuel container, use the fuel funnel. The fuel funnel location can vary, depending on your vehicle:

• In SuperCab and SuperCrew® vehicles: Attached under the rear seat on

the passenger side, near the spare tire tool box.

• In Regular cab vehicles: Attached behind the passenger seat. For easier

access, move the passenger seat forward.

Slowly insert the funnel into the Easy Fuel system and ﬁll the tank with fuel from the container. When done, clean the funnel or properly dispose of it. You can purchase extra funnels from your authorized dealer.

Note: Do not use aermarket funnels as they do not work with the Easy Fuel system and may cause damage.

FUEL TANK CAPACITY AND FUEL TYPE

Depending on your vehicle, your fuel tank has a capacity of either 23 gallons (87.1L) or 36 gallons (136.2L).

If your vehicle has a yellow ring around the fuel inlet, you have a ﬂex fuel vehicle and can use either regular unleaded fuel, E85 ethanol fuel or any mixture of the two.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM

Your vehicle comes with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that displays a low tire pressure warning light

when one or more of your tires are signiﬁcantly under-inﬂated. If this happens, stop and check your tires as soon as possible. Inﬂate them to the proper pressure.

Refer to the Wheels and Tires chapter in your Owner’s Manual for more information.

LOCATION OF SPARE TIRE AND TOOLS

Your vehicle comes with a full-size spare tire located under the vehicle, just forward of the rear bumper. Use it for emergency use only, and be sure to replace it as soon as possible.

The jack and tools location can vary, depending on your vehicle:

• In SuperCab and SuperCrew® models: Attached behind the rear seat on

the passenger side.

• In Regular cab models: Attached to the ﬂoor behind the passenger seat—

for easier access, move the passenger seat forward.

For complete details on how to change your tire, refer to the Wheels and Tires chapter in your Owner’s Manual.

TOWING YOUR F-150 ON FOUR WHEELS

In an emergency situation, you can ﬂat-tow (tow your vehicle on four wheels) under the following conditions:

• Your vehicle is facing forward for towing in a forward direction.

• You place the transmission in neutral (N).

• You do not exceed a maximum speed of 35 mph (56 km/h).

• You do not travel beyond a maximum distance of

50 miles (80 kilometers).

Note: For other towing features including neutral tow and recreational towing, see your Owner’s Manual for details.

ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE

Your new Ford F-150 comes with the assurance and support of 24-hour emergency roadside assistance. To receive roadside assistance in the United States, call 1-800-241-3673. In Canada, call 1-800-665-2006.

Essential Information

Use only UNLEADED fuel with a minimum octane rating of 87. Do not use fuel containing more than 15% ethanol, E85 fuel, diesel fuel, fuel-methanol, leaded fuel or any other fuel because it could damage or impair the emission control system.

Some tips to keep in mind with an E85 vehicle:

• It is best not to alternate repeatedly between gasoline and E85. If you do

switch fuels, it is recommended that you add as much fuel as possible, at least half a tank.

• Do not add less than 5 gallons (18.9L) when refueling.

• You should drive the vehicle immediately aer refueling for at least

5 miles (8 km) to allow the vehicle to adapt to the change in ethanol concentration.

• If you exclusively use E85 fuel, we recommend to ﬁll the fuel tank with

regular unleaded gasoline at each scheduled oil change.

To provide improved performance, we recommend premium fuel for severe duty usage, such as when towing a trailer.
