Fuel and Refueling • Transmissions give their best fuel economy when operated in the top cruise gear and with steady pressure on the gas pedal. Close windows for high speed driving. If you use parts other than Ford, Motorcraft or Ford-authorized parts for maintenance replacements, or for service of components affecting emission control, such non-Ford parts should be the equivalent to genuine Ford Motor Company parts in performance and durability. Illumination of any of the following warning lamps, indicators or vehicle symptoms could indicate that the emission control system is not working correctly. • Coolant temperature warning lamp. • Charging system warning lamp. • Service engine soon indicator. • Fluid leaks. • Strange odors. • Excessive exhaust smoke. • Loss of engine power. Do not make any unauthorized changes to your vehicle or engine. By law, vehicle owners and anyone who manufactures, repairs, services, sells, leases, trades vehicles, or supervises a fleet of vehicles are not permitted to intentionally remove an emission control device or prevent it from working. Information about your vehicle's emission system is on the Vehicle Emission Control Information Decal located on or near the engine. This decal also lists engine displacement. Please see your warranty information for complete details. • EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARNINGS Do not park, idle, or drive your vehicle in dry grass or other dry ground cover. The emission system heats up the engine compartment and exhaust system, which can start a fire. An incorrectly operating or damaged exhaust system may result in entry of harmful and potentially lethal fumes into the passenger compartment. If you smell exhaust fumes inside your vehicle, have an authorized dealer inspect your vehicle immediately. Do not drive if you smell exhaust fumes. Your vehicle has various emission control components and a catalytic converter that will enable your vehicle to comply with applicable exhaust emission standards. To make sure that the catalytic converter and other emission control components continue to work correctly: • Use only the specified fuel listed. • Avoid running out of fuel. • Do not switch the ignition off when your vehicle is moving, especially at high speeds. • Have the items listed in scheduled maintenance information carried out according to the specified schedule. The scheduled maintenance items listed in scheduled maintenance information are essential to the life and performance of your vehicle and to its emissions system. On-Board Diagnostics (OBD-II) Your vehicle has an on-board diagnostics system (OBD-II) that monitors the engine's emission control system. This system protects the environment by making sure that your vehicle continues to meet government emission standards. The OBD-II system also assists an authorized dealer in correctly servicing your vehicle. 122 Transit (TTH) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 03/2014, Third Printing
