Driving ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) DEACTIVATION IN 4WD (IF EQUIPPED) Refer to the label on the back of the sun visor mirror regarding Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) operation. Your vehicle's Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) may be designed to deactivate when 4WD Low is engaged. The ABS indicator ( ABS ) illuminates and stays on, to indicate that ABS is deactivated, as long as 4WD Low is engaged. When 4WD Low is disengaged, the ABS light turns off and the system is active again. SUSPENSION UPGRADE PACKAGE Your vehicle is equipped with a special suspension package that will enhance the vehicle's off-road performance. The vehicle will handle differently, both on and off-road, from a factory-equipped passenger car or truck. Vehicles with a higher center of gravity such as utility and four-wheel drive vehicles handle differently than vehicles with a lower center of gravity. Utility and four-wheel drive vehicles are not designed for cornering at speeds as high as passenger cars any more than low-slung sports cars are designed to perform satisfactorily under off-road conditions. Avoid sharp turns, excessive speed and abrupt maneuvers in these vehicles. Failure to drive cautiously could result in an increased risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and death. If the vehicle is not equipped with in-cab suspension controls, the shock settings are preset and not adjustable inside the vehicle. Contact your authorized technician to make any necessary adjustments. Maximum pressure is 15 psi for off-road operation with maximum load. 18 2008 F-250/350/450/550 (f23) Supplement USA (fus)
