GENERAL INFORMATION

WARNING:

Extended idling at high

engine speeds can produce very high
temperatures in the engine and exhaust
system, creating the risk of fire or other
damage.

WARNING:

Do not park, idle or

drive your vehicle on dry grass or other
dry ground cover. The emission system
heats up the engine compartment and
exhaust system, creating the risk of fire.

WARNING:

Do not start the engine

in a closed garage or in other enclosed
areas. Exhaust fumes are toxic. Always
open the garage door before you start
the engine. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury
or death.

WARNING:

Exhaust leaks may

result in entry of harmful and potentially
lethal fumes into the passenger
compartment. If you smell exhaust
fumes inside your vehicle, have your
vehicle inspected immediately. Do not
drive if you smell exhaust fumes.

If you disconnect the battery, your vehicle
could exhibit some unusual driving
characteristics for approximately 5 mi
(8 km) after you reconnect it. This is
because the engine management system
must realign itself with the engine. You can
disregard any unusual driving
characteristics during this period.

The powertrain control system meets all
Canadian interference-causing equipment
standard requirements regulating the
impulse electrical field or radio noise.

When you start the engine, avoid pressing
the accelerator pedal before and during
operation.

If you operate your vehicle in a heavy snow
storm or blowing snow conditions, the
engine air induction could become partially
clogged with snow and ice. If this occurs,
the engine could experience a significant
reduction in power output. At the earliest
opportunity, clear all the snow and ice
away from the air induction inlet.

IGNITION SWITCH

results in a significant decrease in
braking assistance. Higher effort is
required to apply the brakes and to stop
your vehicle. A significant decrease in
steering assistance could also occur. The
steering does not lock, but higher effort
could be required to steer your vehicle.
When you switch the ignition off, some
electrical circuits, for example airbags,
also turn off. If you unintentionally switch
the ignition off, shift into neutral (N) and
restart the engine.

Switch the ignition off to stop the
engine.

2. Put the transmission into neutral (N)

and use the brakes to bring your vehicle
to a safe stop.

101

Starting and Stopping the Engine

Important Ventilating Information

If you stop your vehicle and then leave the
engine idling for long periods of time, we
recommend that you do one of the
following:

•

Open the windows at least 1 in (3 cm).

•

Set your climate control to outside air.

STARTING A DIESEL ENGINE

Read all starting instructions carefully
before you start your vehicle.

Diesel Engine 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.

•

Environmental temperature sensor.

The powertrain and glow plug control
modules electronically control the glow
plug system. After you switch the ignition
on, the glow plug control module
immediately energizes the glow plugs. The
glow plug control module, using the engine
coolant temperature, barometric pressure
sensor and environmental temperature
sensor, determines how long the glow
plugs stay energized. The required time for
the glow plugs to be energized decreases
as the coolant temperature, barometric
pressure and environmental temperature
increase.

Before starting the engine, check the
following:
•

Make sure all occupants fasten their
seatbelt.

•

Make sure the headlamps and
electrical accessories are off.

•

Make sure the parking brake is on.

•

Make sure the transmission is in park
(P) or neutral (N).

•

Turn the ignition key to the on position.

Note:

Do not press the accelerator during

starting.

Fully press the brake pedal.

2. Turn the key to the start position to

start the engine. Release the key when
the engine starts.

Cold Weather Starting

WARNING:

Do not use starting

fluid, for example ether, in the air intake
system. Such fluid could cause
immediate explosive damage to the
engine and possible personal injury.

WARNING:

Do not mix diesel with

gasoline, gasohol or alcohol. This could
cause an explosion.

We recommend using the engine block
heater for starting when the ambient
temperature is at or below -9°F (-23°C).
See

Engine Block Heater

(page 104).

When operating in cold weather, you can
use Motorcraft® cetane improvers or
non-alcohol-based cetane improvers from
a reputable manufacturer as needed.

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 the
off position and wait 30 seconds before
trying again.

Your vehicle may come with a cold
weather starting strategy that prevents
severe engine damage by assisting in
engine lubrication warm-up. In extremely
cold ambient temperatures, this strategy
activates and prevents the accelerator
pedal use for 30 seconds after starting
your vehicle. A message appears in the
information display as your vehicle warms

102

Starting and Stopping the Engine

up. By not allowing the accelerator pedal
use, the engine oil can properly lubricate
the bearings preventing engine damage
due to lack of proper lubrication. After the
30 second warm-up period, the
accelerator pedal is operational again and
a message appears informing you that your
vehicle is ready to drive.

When starting the engine in extremely cold
temperatures, for example -15°F (-26°C),
we recommend you allow the engine to
idle for several minutes before driving your
vehicle.

Illuminates when you switch the
ignition on as part of the
pre-starting system.

Turn the key to the on position without
turning the key to the start position. Do
not start the engine until the wait to
start indicator turns off.

2. When the wait to start indicator turns

off, turn the key to the start position
and release the key as soon as the
engine starts. Once the engine starts,
the glow plugs may remain on for a
period. If you attempt to start the
engine before the glow plug activation
time ends, but it fails to start, reset the
glow plugs by turning the key to the off
position.

3. Once 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.

SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE

Allow the engine to idle for three to five
minutes before shutting it down. The larger
the engine, the greater the need is for this
idling period.

Note:

Try to limit engine idle to 10 minutes.

Excessive idling reduces fuel economy.

ENGINE IDLE SHUTDOWN

(IF

EQUIPPED)

WARNING:

In the event of engine

shutdown, make sure your vehicle is
safely off the road and the problem is
resolved before returning to the road.
Failure to do so may result in a crash,
serious injury or death.

This feature automatically shuts down the
engine when it has been idling in park (P)
or neutral (N) for an extended period,
depending on the setting.

When the engine idle shutdown process
has started:
•

A chime sounds and a message
appears in the information display
showing a timer counting down from
30 seconds.

•

You can reset the timer by pressing the
brake pedal, accelerator pedal, or by
shifting into another gear.

•

If you do not intervene within 30
seconds, the engine shuts down and a
message appears in the information
display alerting you that the engine has
shut down.

•

Shortly after the engine has shut down,
the electrical system simulates a key
off and even though the ignition is still
on, the electrical system simulates a
normal accessory delay period before
shutting down.

•

You must switch the ignition off to
reset the system before restarting your
vehicle.

103

Starting and Stopping the Engine

The engine idle shutdown timer does not
start if:
•

The engine is operating in battery
charge protect or power take-off mode.

•

The exhaust emission control device is
regenerating.

ENGINE BLOCK HEATER

(IF

EQUIPPED)

WARNING:

Failure to follow engine

block heater instructions could result in
property damage or serious personal
injury.

WARNING:

Do not use your heater

with ungrounded electrical systems or
two-pronged adapters. There is a risk of
electrical shock.

Note:

The heater is most effective when

outdoor temperatures are below 0°F
(-18°C).

The heater acts as a starting aid by
warming the engine coolant. This allows
the climate control system to respond
quickly. The equipment includes a heater
element (installed in the engine block) and
a wire harness. You can connect the
system to a grounded 120-volt AC
electrical source.

We recommend that you do the following
for a safe and correct operation:
•

Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension cord
that is product certified by
Underwriter’s Laboratory (UL) or
Canadian Standards Association
(CSA). This extension cord must be
suitable for use outdoors, in cold

temperatures, and be clearly marked
Suitable for Use with Outdoor
Appliances. Do not use an indoor
extension cord outdoors. This could
result in an electric shock or become a
fire hazard.

•

Use as short an extension cord as
possible.

•

Do not use multiple extension cords.

•

Make sure that when in operation, the
extension cord plug and heater cord
plug connections are free and clear of
water. This could cause an electric
shock or fire.

•

Make sure your vehicle is parked in a
clean area, clear of combustibles.

•

Make sure the heater, heater cord and
extension cord are firmly connected.

•

Check for heat anywhere in the
electrical hookup once the system has
been operating for approximately 30
minutes.

•

Make sure the system is unplugged and
properly stowed before starting and
driving your vehicle. Make sure the
protective cover seals the prongs of the
block heater cord plug when not in use.

•

Make sure the heater system is
checked for proper operation before
winter.

Using the Engine Block Heater

Make sure the receptacle terminals are
clean and dry prior to use. Clean them with
a dry cloth if necessary.

The heater uses 0.4 to 1.0 kilowatt-hours
of energy per hour of use. The system does
not have a thermostat. It achieves
maximum temperature after
approximately three hours of operation.
Using the heater longer than three hours
does not improve system performance and
unnecessarily uses electricity.
