For maximum vehicle performance, keep the following information in mind when adding accessories or equipment to your vehicle:
- When adding accessories, equipment, passengers and luggage to your vehicle, do not exceed the total weight capacity of the vehicle or of the front or rear axle (GVWR or GAWR as indicated on the Safety Compliance Certification label).Ask an authorized dealer for specific weight information.
- The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Canadian Radio Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) regulate the use of mobile communications systems equipped with radio transmitters, for example, two-way radios, telephones and theft alarms. Any such equipment installed in your vehicle should comply with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Canadian Radio Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) regulations, and should be installed by an authorized dealer.
- An authorized dealer needs to install mobile communications systems. Improper installation may harm the operation of your vehicle, particularly if the manufacturer did not design the mobile communication system specifically for automotive use.
- If you or an authorized Ford dealer add any non-Ford electrical or electronic accessories or components to your vehicle, you may adversely affect battery performance and durability. In addition, you may also adversely affect the performance of other electrical systems in the vehicle.
The auxiliary switch option package provides six switches mounted in the instrument panel. These switches operate when the vehicle is running . We recommend, however, that the engine remain running to maintain battery charge when using the auxiliary switches for extended periods of time or higher current draws.
When switched on, the auxiliary switches provide electrical battery power for a variety of personal or commercial uses. Switch 1 is provided with 25 amps fuse. Switch 2 is provided with 15 amps fuse. Switch 3 is provided with 10 amps fuse. Switches 4, 5 and 6 provided with a 5 amps fuse.
The relay box for the auxiliary switches is in the left front of the engine compartment. See your authorized dealer for service.
The relays are coded as shown:
Each switch includes a blunt-cut, wire located next to the auxiliary fuse and relay box in the left front of the engine bay.
