    1 See the SAE viscosities grades chart for
    correct temperature usage.
    2 For severe duty service, use SAE 5W-40
    API CJ-4.
    3 For biodiesel fuel blends (B20 max), use
    SAE 5W-40 or SAE 15W-40 API CJ-4.
    If you use oil and fluids that do not meet
    the defined specification and viscosity
    grade, this may lead to:
    • Component damage which is not
    covered by the vehicle warranty.
    • Longer engine cranking periods.
    • Increased emission levels.
    • Reduced engine performance.
    • Reduced fuel economy.
    • Degraded brake performance. Note:
    An engine block heater is
    recommended at temperatures below
    – 10°F (– 23°C).
    Engine Oil Specifications
    The use of correct oil viscosities for diesel
    engines is important for satisfactory
    operation. Determine which oil viscosity
    best suits the temperature range you
    expect to encounter for the next service
    interval from the following SAE viscosity
    grade chart.

    							The American Petroleum Institute (API)
    service symbol is used to identify the
    proper engine oil for your engine. The API
    service symbol will be displayed on the oil
    container you purchase. The API symbol
    displays the oil performance category in
    the top half of the symbol and the viscosity
    grade in the center of the symbol.
    Note:
    Ford recommends using DOT 4 Low
    Viscosity (LV) High Performance Brake Fluid
    or equivalent meeting WSS-M6C65-A2. Use
    of any fluid other than the recommended
    fluid may cause degraded brake
    performance and not meet the Ford
    performance standards. Keep brake fluid
    clean and dry. Contamination with dirt,
    water, petroleum products or other
    materials may result in brake system
    damage and possible failure.

    							GENERAL INFORMATION
    Radio Frequencies and Reception
    Factors
    AM and FM frequencies are established by
    the Federal Communications Commission
    (FCC) and the Canadian Radio and
    Telecommunications Commission (CRTC).
    Those frequencies are:
    •
    AM: 530, 540-1700, 1710 kHz
    • FM: 87.9-107.7, 107.9 MHz Radio Reception Factors
    The further you travel from an AM or FM station, the
    weaker the signal and the weaker the reception.
    Distance and strength
    Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges, tunnels, freeway
    overpasses, parking garages, dense tree foliage and
    thunderstorms can interfere with the reception.
    Terrain
    When you pass a ground-based broadcast repeating
    tower, a stronger signal may overtake a weaker one and
    result in the audio system muting.
    Station overload
    CD and CD Player Information
    Note: CD units play commercially pressed
    4.7 in (12 cm) audio compact discs only. Due
    to technical incompatibility, certain
    recordable and re-recordable compact discs
    may not function correctly when used in
    Ford CD players.
    Note: Do not insert CDs with homemade
    paper (adhesive) labels into the CD player
    as the label may peel and cause the CD to
    become jammed. You should use a
    permanent felt tip marker rather than
    adhesive labels on your homemade CDs.
    Ballpoint pens may damage CDs. Please
    contact an authorized dealer for further
    information.
    Note: Do not use any irregularly shaped
    discs or discs with a scratch protection film
    attached.
    Always handle discs by their edges only.
    Clean the disc with an approved CD
    cleaner only. Wipe it from the center of the
    disc toward the edge. Do not clean in a
    circular motion. Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or
    heat sources for extended periods.
    MP3 and WMA Track and Folder
    Structure
    Audio systems capable of recognizing and
    playing MP3 and WMA individual tracks
    and folder structures work as follows:
    •
    There are two different modes for MP3
    and WMA disc playback: MP3 and
    WMA track mode (system default) and
    MP3 and WMA folder mode.
    • MP3 and WMA track mode ignores any
    folder structure on the MP3 and WMA
    disc. The player numbers each MP3
    and WMA track on the disc (noted by
    the MP3 or WMA file extension) from
    T001 to a maximum of T255. The
    maximum number of playable MP3 and
    WMA files may be less depending on
    the structure of the CD and exact
    model of radio present.
    435
    Super Duty (TFE) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, First Printing Audio System 
    						
    							•
    MP3 and WMA folder mode represents
    a folder structure consisting of one
    level of folders. The CD player numbers
    all MP3 and WMA tracks on the disc
    (noted by the MP3 or WMA file
    extension) and all folders containing
    MP3 and WMA files, from F001 (folder)
    T001 (track) to F253 T255.
    • Creating discs with only one level of
    folders helps with navigation through
    the disc files.
    If you are burning your own MP3 and WMA
    discs, it is important to understand how
    the system reads the structures you create.
    While various files may be present (files
    with extensions other than MP3 and
    WMA), only files with the MP3 and WMA
    extension are played; other files are
    ignored by the system. This enables you to
    use the same MP3 and WMA disc for a
    variety of tasks on your work computer,
    home computer and your in-vehicle
    system. In track mode, the system displays and
    plays the structure as if it were only one
    level deep (all MP3 and WMA files play,
    regardless of being in a specific folder). In
    folder mode, the system only plays the
    MP3 and WMA files in the current folder.
