Ford E-450 (2022 year). Manual in english — page 8

The warning system is in two stages. At
first the system issues a temporary warning
that you need to take a rest. This message
only appears for a short time. If the system
detects further reduction in driving
alertness, another warning could be issued
which remains in the information display
for a longer time. Press OK on the steering
wheel control to clear the warning. When
active the system runs in the background
and only issues a warning if required.

Resetting the System

You can reset the system by either:

Switching the ignition off and on.

Stopping the vehicle and then opening
and closing the driver door.

121

Driving Aids

Why is the feature not available (line markings are gray) when I can see the lane markings

on the road?

There is standing water on the road.

Faint lane markings, for example partial yellow lane markings on concrete roads.

Lane width is too narrow or too wide.

The camera has not been calibrated after a windshield replacement.

Driving on tight roads or on uneven roads.

Vehicle accessories are blocking the camera, for example a snow plow.

STEERING

Hydraulic Power Steering

To help prevent damage to the power
steering system:

Do not hold the steering wheel at its
furthest turning points for more than
three to five seconds when the engine
is running.

Avoid continuously steering back and
forth with elevated engine RPM as this
may overheat the system. If trying to
free a stuck vehicle, pause between
attempts to allow the power steering
system to cool or seek assistance.
Typical steering and driving maneuvers
allow the system to cool.

Do not operate the vehicle if the power
steering pump fluid level is below the
MIN mark on the reservoir.

Some noise is normal during operation.
If excessive, check for low power
steering pump fluid level before
seeking service by your dealer.

Heavy or uneven efforts may be caused
by low power steering fluid. Check for
low power steering pump fluid level
before seeking service by your dealer.

Do not fill the power steering pump
reservoir above the MAX mark on the
reservoir, as this may result in leaks
from the reservoir.

If the power steering system breaks down
or if you switch the engine off, you can
steer the vehicle manually, but it takes
more effort.

If you have any steering components
serviced or replaced, install new fasteners.
Many fasteners have coatings with thread
adhesive, or have prevailing torque
features you cannot reuse. Do not reuse a
bolt or nut. Torque fasteners to
specifications.

Steering Tips

If the steering wanders or pulls, check for:

An improperly inflated tire.

Uneven tire wear.

Loose or worn suspension
components.

Loose or worn steering components.

Improper vehicle alignment.

122

Driving Aids

Note:

A high crown in the road or high

crosswinds may also make the steering
seem to wander or pull.

PRE-COLLISION ASSIST

(IF

EQUIPPED)

WARNING:

You are responsible for

controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your vehicle,
personal injury or death.

WARNING:

The system does not

detect vehicles that are driving in a
different direction, pedestrians at night,
cyclists or animals. Apply the brakes
when necessary. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in the loss of
control of your vehicle, personal injury or
death.

WARNING:

The system does not

operate during hard acceleration or
steering. Failure to take care may lead
to a crash or personal injury.

WARNING:

The system may fail or

operate with reduced function during
cold and severe weather conditions.
Snow, ice, rain, spray and fog can
adversely affect the system. Keep the
front camera and radar free of snow and
ice. Failure to take care may result in the
loss of control of your vehicle, serious
personal injury or death.

WARNING:

Some situations and

objects prevent hazard detection. For
example low or direct sunlight, inclement
weather, unconventional vehicle types,
and pedestrians. Apply the brakes when
necessary. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in the loss of
control of your vehicle, personal injury or
death.

WARNING:

Take additional care if

your vehicle is heavily loaded or you are
towing a trailer. These conditions could
result in reduced performance of this
system. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death.

WARNING:

The system cannot

help prevent all crashes. Do not rely on
this system to replace driver judgment
and the need to maintain a safe distance
and speed.

Using the Pre-Collision Assist
System

The Pre-Collision Assist system is active
at speeds above approximately 3 mph
(5 km/h)

Note:

The system is not designed to detect

animals.

Note:

The system is not designed to detect

vehicles or cyclists that are traveling in a
different direction.

E156130

If your vehicle is rapidly approaching
another stationary vehicle or a vehicle
traveling in the same direction as yours,
the system provides three levels of
functionality:

1.

Alert

123

Driving Aids

2. Brake Support

3. Active Braking

E255268

Alert

: When active, a flashing visual

warning appears and an audible warning
tone sounds.

Brake Support

: The system is designed

to help reduce the impact speed by
preparing the brakes for rapid braking. The
system does not automatically apply the
brakes. If you press the brake pedal, the
system could apply additional braking up
to maximum braking force, even if you
lightly press the brake pedal.

Active Braking

: Active braking may

activate if the system determines that a
collision is imminent. The system may help
the driver reduce impact damage or avoid
the crash completely.

Note:

Brake Support and Active Braking are

active up to the maximum speed of the
vehicle.

Note:

If you perceive Pre-Collision Assist

alerts as being too frequent or disturbing,
then you can reduce the alert sensitivity,
though the manufacturer recommends
using the highest sensitivity setting where
possible. Setting lower sensitivity would
lead to fewer and later system warnings.

Note:

The Pre-Collision Assist system

automatically disables when you manually
disable AdvanceTrac™.

Distance Indication and Alert

Distance Indication and Alert is a function
that provides the driver with a graphical
indication of the time gap to other
preceding vehicles traveling in the same
direction. The Distance Indication and Alert
screen in the display screen shows one of
the graphics that follow.

E254791

If the time gap to a preceding vehicle is
small, a red visual indication displays.

Note:

Distance Indication and Alert

deactivates and the graphics do not display
when Adaptive Cruise Control is active.

Contact an authorized dealer to have the

radar checked for proper coverage and

operation.

Radar is out of alignment due to a front end

impact.

Note:

Proper system operation requires a

clear view of the road by the camera. Have
any windshield damage in the area of the
camera's field of view repaired.

Note:

If something hits the front end of your

vehicle or damage occurs and your vehicle
has a radar sensor, the radar sensing zone
may change. This could cause missed or
false vehicle detections. Contact an
authorized dealer to have the radar checked
for proper coverage and operation.

Note:

If your vehicle detects excessive heat

at the camera or a potential misalignment
condition, a message may display in the
information display indicating temporary
sensor unavailability. When operational
conditions are correct, the message
deactivates. For example, when the ambient
temperature around the sensor decreases
or the sensor automatically recalibrates
successfully.

LOAD LIMIT

Vehicle Loading - with and
without a Trailer

This section guides you in the
proper loading of your vehicle,
trailer, or both. Keep your loaded
vehicle weight within its design
rating capability, with or without
a trailer. Properly loading your
vehicle provides maximum return
of vehicle design performance.
Before you load your vehicle,
become familiar with the
following terms for determining
your vehicle’s weight rating, with
or without a trailer, from the
vehicle’s Tire and Loading
Information label or Safety
Compliance Certification label.

Tire and Loading Label Information
Example:

E198719

Payload

Payload is the combined weight
of cargo and passengers that your
vehicle is carrying. The maximum
payload for your vehicle appears
on the Tire and Loading label. The
label is either on the B-pillar or the
edge of the driver door. Vehicles
exported outside the US and
Canada may not have a tire and
loading label. Look for “The
combined weight of occupants
and cargo should never exceed
XXX kg OR XXX lb” for maximum
payload. The payload listed on the
Tire and Loading Information label

127

Load Carrying

is the maximum payload for your
vehicle as built by the assembly
plant. If you install any additional
equipment on your vehicle, you
must determine the new payload.
Subtract the weight of the
equipment from the payload listed
on the Tire and Loading label.
When towing, trailer tongue
weight or king pin weight is also
part of payload.

WARNING:

The

appropriate loading capacity of
your vehicle can be limited either
by volume capacity (how much
space is available) or by payload
capacity (how much weight the
vehicle should carry). Once you
have reached the maximum
payload of your vehicle, do not
add more cargo, even if there is
space available. Overloading or
improperly loading your vehicle
can contribute to loss of vehicle
control and vehicle rollover.

GAWR (Gross Axle Weight
Rating)

GAWR is the maximum allowable
weight that a single axle (front or
rear) can carry. These numbers
are on the Safety Compliance
Certification label. The label is
located on the door hinge pillar,
door-latch post, or the door edge
that meets the door-latch post,
next to the driver seating position.

The total load on each axle must
never exceed its Gross Axle
Weight Rating.

GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating)

GVWR is the maximum allowable
weight of the fully loaded vehicle.
This includes all options,
equipment, passengers and cargo.
It appears on the Safety
Compliance Certification label.
The label is located on the door
hinge pillar, door-latch post, or the
door edge that meets the
door-latch post, next to the driver
seating position.

The gross vehicle weight must
never exceed the Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating.

Safety Compliance Certification Label
Example:

E198828

128

Load Carrying

WARNING:

Exceeding the

Safety Compliance Certification
label vehicle weight limits can
adversely affect the
performance and handling of
your vehicle, cause vehicle
damage and can result in the
loss of control of your vehicle,
serious personal injury or death.

Maximum Loaded Trailer

Weight

Maximum loaded trailer weight is
the highest possible weight of a
fully loaded trailer the vehicle can
tow. Consult an authorized dealer
(or the RV and Trailer Towing
Guide available at an authorized
dealer) for more detailed
information.

GCWR (Gross Combined
Weight Rating)

GCWR is the maximum allowable
weight of the vehicle and the
loaded trailer, including all cargo
and passengers, that the vehicle
can handle without risking
damage. (Important: The towing
vehicle’s braking system is rated
for operation at Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating, not at Gross
Combined Weight Rating.)
Separate functional brakes should

be used for safe control of towed
vehicles and for trailers where the
Gross Combined Weight of the
towing vehicle plus the trailer
exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating of the towing vehicle.

The gross combined weight must
never exceed the Gross Combined
Weight Rating.

Note:

For trailer towing

information refer to the RV and
Trailer Towing Guide available at
an authorized dealer.

WARNING:

Do not exceed

the GVWR or the GAWR
specified on the certification
label.

WARNING:

Do not use

replacement tires with lower
load carrying capacities than the
original tires because they may
lower your vehicle's GVWR and
GAWR limitations. Replacement
tires with a higher limit than the
original tires do not increase the
GVWR and GAWR limitations.

WARNING:

Exceeding any

vehicle weight rating can
adversely affect the
performance and handling of
your vehicle, cause vehicle
damage and can result in the
loss of control of your vehicle,
serious personal injury or death.

129

Load Carrying

Steps for determining the
correct load limit:

1. Locate the statement "The

combined weight of occupants
and cargo should never exceed
XXX kg or XXX lb." on your
vehicle’s placard.

2. Determine the combined

weight of the driver and
passengers that will be riding
in your vehicle.

3. Subtract the combined weight

of the driver and passengers
from XXX kg or XXX lb.

4. The resulting figure equals the

available amount of cargo and
luggage load capacity. For
example, if the “XXX” amount
equals 1,400 lb. and there will
be five 150 lb. passengers in
your vehicle, the amount of
available cargo and luggage
load capacity is 650 lb.
(1400-750 (5 x 150) = 650 lb.)

5. Determine the combined

weight of luggage and cargo
being loaded on the vehicle.
That weight may not safely
exceed the available cargo and
luggage load capacity
calculated in Step 4.

6. If your vehicle will be towing a

trailer, load from your trailer
will be transferred to your
vehicle. Consult this manual to
determine how this reduces the
available cargo and luggage
load capacity of your vehicle.

Helpful examples for calculating
the available amount of cargo
and luggage load capacity

Suppose your vehicle has a
1400-pound (635-kilogram) cargo
and luggage capacity. You decide
to go golfing. Is there enough load
capacity to carry you, four of your
friends and all the golf bags? You
and four friends average 220
pounds (99 kilograms) each and
the golf bags weigh approximately
30 pounds (13.5 kilograms) each.
The calculation would be: 1400 -
(5 x 220) - (5 x 30) = 1400 - 1100
- 150 = 150 pounds. Yes, you have
enough load capacity in your
vehicle to transport four friends
and your golf bags. In metric units,
the calculation would be: 635
kilograms - (5 x 99 kilograms) -
(5 x 13.5 kilograms) = 635 - 495 -
67.5 = 72.5 kilograms.

Suppose your vehicle has a
1400-pound (635-kilogram) cargo
and luggage capacity. You and
one of your friends decide to pick
up cement from the local home
improvement store to finish that
patio you have been planning for
the past two years. Measuring the
inside of the vehicle with the rear
seat folded down, you have room
for twelve 100-pound
(45-kilogram) bags of cement. Do
you have enough load capacity to
transport the cement to your
home? If you and your friend each
weigh 220 pounds (99 kilograms),
the calculation would be: 1400 -
(2 x 220) - (12 x 100) = 1400 - 440

130

Load Carrying

- 1200 = - 240 pounds. No, you do
not have enough cargo capacity
to carry that much weight. In
metric units, the calculation would
be: 635 kilograms - (2 x 99
kilograms) - (12 x 45 kilograms) =
635 - 198 - 540 = -103 kilograms.
You will need to reduce the load
weight by at least 240 pounds
(104 kilograms). If you remove
three 100-pound (45-kilogram)
cement bags, then the load
calculation would be:1400 - (2 x
220) - (9 x 100) = 1400 - 440 -
900 = 60 pounds. Now you have
the load capacity to transport the
cement and your friend home. In
metric units, the calculation would
be: 635 kilograms - (2 x 99
kilograms) - (9 x 45 kilograms) =
635 - 198 - 405 = 32 kilograms.

The above calculations also
assume that the loads are
positioned in your vehicle in a
manner that does not overload
the front or the rear gross axle
weight rating specified for your
vehicle on the Safety Compliance
Certification label.

Special Loading Instructions
for Owners of Pick-up Trucks
and Utility-type Vehicles

WARNING:

When loading

the roof racks, we recommend
you evenly distribute the load,
as well as maintain a low center
of gravity. Loaded vehicles, with
higher centers of gravity, may

handle differently than unloaded
vehicles. Take extra precautions,
such as slower speeds and
increased stopping distance,
when driving a heavily loaded
vehicle.

Load Carrying

TOWING A TRAILER

WARNING:

Do not exceed

the GVWR or the GAWR
specified on the certification
label.

WARNING:

Towing trailers

beyond the maximum
recommended gross trailer
weight exceeds the limit of your
vehicle and could result in engine
damage, transmission damage,
structural damage, loss of
vehicle control, vehicle rollover
and personal injury.

Your vehicle may have electrical
items, for example fuses or relays,
related to towing. See

Fuses

(page 155).

Your vehicle's load capacity
designation is by weight, not by
volume, so you cannot necessarily
use all available space when
loading your vehicle.
Towing a trailer places an extra
load on your vehicle's engine,
transmission, axle, brakes, tires
and suspension. Inspect these
components periodically during,
and after, any towing operation.

Load Placement

To help minimize how trailer
movement affects your vehicle
when driving:

Load the heaviest items closest
to the trailer floor.

Load the heaviest items
centered between the left and
right side trailer tires.

Load the heaviest items above
the trailer axles or just slightly
forward toward the trailer
tongue. Do not allow the final
trailer tongue weight to go
above or below 10-15% of the
loaded trailer weight.

Select a draw bar with the
correct rise or drop. When both
the loaded vehicle and trailer
are connected, the trailer frame
should be level, or slightly
angled down toward your
vehicle, when viewed from the
side.

When driving with a trailer or

payload, a slight takeoff vibration
or shudder may be present due to
the increased payload weight.
Additional information regarding
correct trailer loading and setting
your vehicle up for towing is
located in another chapter of this
Owner's Manual. See

Load Limit

(page 127). You can also find the
information in the RV & Trailer
Towing Guide. See an authorized
dealer.

ESSENTIAL TOWING CHECKS

Follow these guidelines for safe towing:

Do not tow a trailer until you drive your
vehicle at least 1,000 mi (1,600 km).

Consult your local motor vehicle laws
for towing a trailer.

See the instructions included with
towing accessories for the proper
installation and adjustment
specifications.

Service your vehicle more frequently if
you tow a trailer. See your scheduled
maintenance information. See

Scheduled Maintenance

(page 251).

If you use a rental trailer, follow the
instructions the rental agency gives
you.

See

Load limits

in the Load Carrying

chapter for load specification terms found
on the tire label and Safety Compliance
label and instructions on calculating your
vehicle's load.

Remember to account for the trailer
tongue weight as part of your vehicle load
when calculating the total vehicle weight.

Trailer Towing Connector

E163167

When attaching the trailer wiring connector
to your vehicle, only use a proper fitting
connector that works with the vehicle and
trailer functions. Some seven-position
connectors may have the SAE J2863 logo,
which confirms that it is the proper wiring
connector and works correctly with your
vehicle.

Hitches

Do not use a hitch that either clamps onto
the bumper or attaches to the axle. You
must distribute the load in your trailer so
that 10-15% of the total weight of the
trailer is on the tongue.

Weight-distributing Hitches

WARNING:

Do not adjust the spring

bars so that your vehicle's rear bumper
is higher than before attaching the trailer.
Doing so will defeat the function of the
weight-distributing hitch, which may
cause unpredictable handling, and could
result in serious personal injury.

When hooking-up a trailer using a
weight-distributing hitch, always use the
following procedure:
