Driving Hints • Transmissions give their best fuel economy when operated in the top cruise gear and with steady pressure on the gas pedal. Four-wheel-drive operation (if equipped) is less fuel efficient than two-wheel-drive operation. Close the windows for high-speed driving Lightly press the brake pedal to dry the brakes and to check that they work. Check that the horn works. Check that the exterior lights work. Turn the steering wheel to check that the steering power assist works. • • FLOOR MATS WARNINGS Always use floor mats that are designed to fit the foot well of your vehicle. Only use floor mats that leave the pedal area unobstructed. Only use floor mats that are firmly secured to retention posts so that they cannot slip out of position and interfere with the pedals or impair safe operation of your vehicle in other ways. Pedals that cannot move freely can cause loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of serious personal injury. Always make sure that the floor mats are properly attached to the retention posts in the carpet that are supplied with your vehicle. Floor mats must be properly secured to both retention posts to make sure mats do not shift out of position. Never place floor mats or any other covering in the vehicle foot well that cannot be properly secured to prevent them from moving and interfering with the pedals or the ability to control the vehicle. DRIVING THROUGH WATER WARNING Do not drive through flowing or deep water as you may lose control of your vehicle. Note: Driving through standing water can cause vehicle damage. Note: Engine damage can occur if water enters the air filter. Before driving through standing water, check the depth. Never drive through water that is higher than the bottom of the wheel hubs. E176913 When driving through standing water, drive very slowly and do not stop your vehicle. Your brake performance and traction may be limited. After driving through water and as soon as it is safe to do so: Never place floor mats or any other covering on top of already installed floor mats. Floor mats should always rest on top of vehicle carpeting surface and not another floor mat or other covering. Additional floor mats or any other covering will reduce the pedal clearance and potentially interfere with pedal operation. 273 F-150 (), enUSA, First Printing

•

Lightly press the brake pedal to dry the

brakes and to check that they work.

•

Check that the horn works.

•

Check that the exterior lights work.

FLOOR MATS

WARNINGS

Always use floor mats that are

designed to fit the foot well of your

vehicle. Only use floor mats that

leave the pedal area unobstructed. Only

use floor mats that are firmly secured to

retention posts so that they cannot slip out

of position and interfere with the pedals

or impair safe operation of your vehicle in

other ways.

Pedals that cannot move freely can

cause loss of vehicle control and

increase the risk of serious personal

injury.

Always make sure that the floor

mats are properly attached to the

retention posts in the carpet that are

supplied with your vehicle. Floor mats must

be properly secured to both retention posts

to make sure mats do not shift out of

position.

Never place floor mats or any other

covering in the vehicle foot well that

cannot be properly secured to

prevent them from moving and interfering

with the pedals or the ability to control the

vehicle.

Never place floor mats or any other

covering on top of already installed

floor mats. Floor mats should always

rest on top of vehicle carpeting surface and

not another floor mat or other covering.

Additional floor mats or any other covering

will reduce the pedal clearance and

potentially interfere with pedal operation.
