Special Operating Conditions - Ford Diesel 2011 Supplement Manual

Scheduled Maintenance Guide

SPECIAL OPERATING CONDITIONS

If you operate your vehicle primarily in one of the conditions listed
below, you will need to have some items serviced more frequently. If you
only occasionally operate your vehicle under any of these conditions,
you don't need to perform the additional maintenance. For specific
recommendations, see your dealership service advisor or technician.
Frequent/extended idling (over 10 minutes per hour of normal driving) or
frequent low speed operation if vehicle is used for stationary operation
Every 15,000 miles (24,000 km),
6 months, 600 engine hours or as
indicated by message center
Every 15,000 miles (24,000 km) or
Every 60,000 miles (96,000 km) or
2,400 engine hours
Perform the services noted in the preceding table at the specified
time/mileage (km) period either within 3,000 miles (4,800 km) of the
OIL CHANGE REQUIRED message appearing in the message center or
when the time/mileage (km) reading indicates service is due.
Example #1: The OIL CHANGE REQUIRED message comes on at
19,751 miles (31,786 km); perform the 22,500 mile (36,000 km) fuel
filter replacement.
Example #2: The OIL CHANGE REQUIRED message has not come on
but the odometer reads 22,500 miles (36,000 km); perform the fuel filter
replacement. (i.e., Intelligent Oil Life Monitor™ was reset at 15,000 miles
[24,000 km].)
Note: Vehicles operating under these severe service conditions need to
have their maintenance requirements adjusted. This needs to be
considered when determining vehicle service intervals.
Note: When adding coolant additive, do not exceed the specified
maximum of 48 fl. oz. (1.4L). Operating the engine with excessive
coolant additive may cause overheating which could lead to severe
permanent engine damage.
