TABLE JFMVSS 105 Unloaded Vehicle Weight Variable for Econoline Vehicles with a GVWR less than 3629 kg [8000 lb]

Prior to utilizing the formulas below, the completed vehicle must be weighed with all the fluids at capacity (including a full tankof fuel). Obtain the front component weight (weight between both front tires and the ground), the rear weight component (weightbetween both rear tires and the ground), and the total vehicle weight.

1. FLL (Front Lightly Loaded weight) = Front Weight Component + 259 lb 6. To determine the factor FV (Front Variable) use the following:- If FLL is greater than FP then FV = FLL

2. RLL (Rear Lightly Loaded weight) = Rear Weight Component + 141 lb - If RLL is greater than RP then FV = GVWR - RLL- If FLL is less than or equal to FP and RLL is less than or

3. TLL (Total Lightly Loaded weight) = Total Vehicle Weight + 400 lb equal to RP then FV= FP

GVWR x Front GAWR4. FP (Front Proportional weight) = Front GAWR + Rear GAWR 7. Calculate the weight percentage as follows:• %FLL = FLL x 100

5. RP (Rear Proportional weight) = GVWR - FP TLL • %FV = FV x 100

This vehicle when completed will conform to Standard 301,Fuel System Integrity if:

The following fuel components as installed by Ford MotorCompany are not removed, altered or modified in anyway except as specified in the following representations:

Fuel tank and attachment hardware, including senderunit, vapor valve, and fuel tank shield

Fuel filler cap, pipe, hoses and attaching hardware

Fuel pump

Fuel filter

Fuel water separator, fuel filter/primer, fuel line heaterand injection pump

Fuel shut-off switch (Inertia switch)

The completed vehicle when loaded to the requirementsof S7.1.6 (c) does not exceed the GVWR or GAWR’s.

The floor structure of the Second Unit Body and rearbumper are manufactured and installed to thespecifications, found in the Figures on pages 51 & 52.

The fill hoses, hose clamps, ground strap and fuel senderunit must be installed to the specification on Figure K,page 47.

No other alteration or modification made to the incompletevehicle as manufactured by Ford Motor Company and noother components or structure installed by a subsequentstage manufacturer result in penetration, separation, orother damage to the fuel system or any portion thereofwhen the vehicle is tested in any manner specified byapplicable provisions of Standard 301.†

For Cutaways equipped with a temporary fuel tank, thefuel tank sending unit must be removed from thetemporary tank and installed in the permanent fuel tank.Prior to the installation of the sending unit, the temporaryshipping cover must be removed from the permanentfuel tank sender opening. The temporary fuel lines tothe temporary tank are removed by snapping off theretention tabs on the push connect clips and sliding outthe clips. The temporary shipping lines are not to bereused. The sending unit is then installed in thepermanent tank by reusing the six special nuts whichretained the shipping cover to the permanent tank, anduse the new 0-ring seal that is shipped with the vehiclein a separate package. The six nuts must be torquedas shown in Figure K page 47. Special connecting fuellines, with female metal push connectors are used toconnect the steel fuel lines to the fuel sender on thetank. The connectors must be snapped securely intoplace and the appropriate Retainer-Fuel Tube PushConnector is installed as shown in Figure J page 44.


The preceding statements for FMVSS 301 are appropriatecompliance representations for CMVSS 301, Fuel SystemIntegrity, if this incomplete vehicle was manufactured forsale or use in Canada. In such a case, CMVSS 301paragraphs (5), (6), and (7) are substituted for thereference to FMVSS 301 Section 7.1.6.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Section 6(4) (d) of the Canadian Motor Vehicle SafetyRegulations requires a manufacturer of an incomplete motorvehicle to list the applicable Canadian Motor Vehicle SafetyStandards (CMVSS) to which the incomplete motor vehicleconforms in full at the time of manufacture. The table onpage 55 is provided for this purpose. The Statements ofConformity on pages 8 through 53 of this manual, arecompliance representations based on United States FederalMotor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) requirements.However, Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Regulations(CMVSS) representations are provided at the conclusion ofeach safety standard section where appropriate. BecauseCMVSS requirements may differ from FMVSS requirements,Canadian Subsequent Stage Manufacturers should refer tothe Canadian requirements for each safety standard to helpdetermine compliance to a regulation.

CMVSS STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

The incomplete vehicle identified by the Vehicle IdentificationNumber VIN) on the cover of this manual and to which thismanual was attached, conforms in full, as manufactured byFord Motor Company to each Canadian Motor Vehicle SafetyStandard designated by an “X” in the appropriate column ofthe table on page 55. The appropriate column is the columnheaded by the illustrated description of the incomplete vehicletype that represents this particular incomplete vehicle. The tablelists all safety standards in effect on the date of manufactureof this incomplete vehicle (shown on the front cover) applicableto “Chassis Cabs” which, as defined by Canadian Regulations,includes all the incomplete vehicles described. Compliancewith those standards not identified by an “X” and possibly otherstandards not listed are the responsibility of the manufacturerwho completes the vehicle, when those standards areapplicable to the final configuration of the vehicle. Note:Canadian Regulations include vehicle emission standards inthe 1100 series as shown.

VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION

Refer to the Vehicle Description section of this manual on page 4,for additional information. Incomplete vehicles produced byFord Motor Company require, for certain applications, optionalPrep Packages or trim codes which are listed on theCompleted Vehicle Types charts on page 5.

CANADIAN RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE (RFI)INFORMATION

All vehicles powered by spark ignition engines (e.g.: gasolineor propane engines) and manufactured in Canada or for saleor use in Canada are subject to the Canadian “Regulations forthe Control of Interference to Radio Reception” per Interference-Causing Equipment Standard (ICES-002) and applicable testmethod according to “CAN/CSA-C108.4-M92”. Violation ofthese regulations is punishable by fine or imprisonment. ThisFord-built incomplete vehicle (if other than a Basic (Stripped)Chassis) was designed and manufactured to be capable ofmeeting the regulatory requirements or such modificationsthereof as may have been authorized by the Department ofCommunications. However, because Ford has no control overhow this incomplete vehicle is completed by subsequent stagemanufacturers, Ford does not represent that the completedvehicle incorporating the Ford-built components will complywith applicable requirements.

The following information is supplied to subsequent stagemanufacturers to help them avoid increasing the RFI emissionsof this vehicle in the course of completing it.

For any completed vehicle, additional measures may beneeded to adequately suppress RFI emissions. Affectedcomponents could include spark plugs, ignition wires, ignitioncoil, ground straps, ignition component shields, accessory drivebelts, instrument voltage regulator suppressor assembly andignition coil suppressor assembly.

More specifically:

All components required to suppress RFI emissions, whichare removed during service, repair or completion of thevehicle, must be reinstalled in the manner in which theywere installed by Ford.

Shields on ignition coil must remain installed.

Replacement spark plugs, ignition wires, and ignition coilmust be equivalent in their RFI suppression properties tooriginal equipment.

Electrical grounds on all components must be retained.

Metallic components installed on the body or chassis mustbe grounded to the chassis.

Electrical circuits added to the vehicle must not be installednear the high voltage ignition components.

Only “static conductive” accessory drive belts should beused. Fan, water pump, power steering and other beltsshould be of the OEM type or equivalent that will not buildup a static electrical charge.

56EMISSION CERTIFICATION INFORMATION

EXHAUST EMISSIONS AND FUEL ECONOMY

Most incomplete light truck vehicle(s) or truck(s) offered bythe Ford Motor Company for 2001 model year will be in the>3855 kg [8,500 lb] classification. Generally, the medium/heavyduty engines used in these vehicles will be certified to Federal,Canadian or California exhaust and evaporative emissionsrequirements for medium/heavy duty engines.

Frontal Area and Weight Restrictions:

All 4.2L and some 5.4L heavy duty engines (engines usedin vehicles exceeding 3855 kg [8,500 lb]) are certified tolight duty <3855 kg [8,500 lb] protocol and will requirevehicle weight and frontal area restrictions. The 6.8L HD,7.3L Diesel HD and some 5.4L HD (49 states only) enginesare not certified to light duty protocol and therefore are notlimited by weight and frontal area restrictions for exhaustemissions. All 4.2L engine vehicles concerned are listed onpage 59 of this manual. The 5.4L engine vehicles concernedare the E-250, regular or extended van, 3900 kg [8600 lb]GVWR vehicles. If your vehicle is affected, the frontal areaand Unloaded Vehicle Weight information will be found on theEmissions Control Information decal which is located in theengine compartment, as well as page 59 of this manual. Thisengine label reflects the maximum curb weight as certifiedby the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) (i.e., basic curbweight plus 33% option weight for a vehicle line within anengine-system combination). The curb weight of the vehicle isallowed to increase beyond the Important Vehicle Informationdecal maximum curb weight if the increase is due to theaddition of options that have less than 33% installation rate.

Incomplete vehicles using engines which are certified asheavy duty engines will not have frontal area or curb weightrestrictions based on exhaust emissions regulations. It isimportant, however, that the final stage manufacturer observevehicle restrictions from vehicle safety requirements, etc.,which are located elsewhere in this manual. Additionalemissions certification information is contained in the FordTruck Body Builders Layout Book for the model year and typeof this incomplete vehicle.

Emission Control Hardware

Any body builder, installer or subsequent stage manufacturermust also assure that all emission control hardware furnishedwith incomplete vehicles is on the vehicle and is operationaland that applicable instructions for incorporating such hardwareinto the completed vehicle’s electrical or mechanical systemsare strictly followed.

High Altitude Requirements

United States Environmental Protection Agency regulationsfor the 2001 model year do not contain unique emissioncertification requirements for light duty trucks that will be soldor delivered to customers for principal use above 1,219 m[4,000 ft.]. However, some vehicle configurations are restrictedto low altitude applications for principal use below 1,219 m[4,000 ft.].


CAUTION:2001 MODEL YEAR VEHICLES ARE EMISSIONCERTIFIED FOR REGISTRATION IN SPECIFIC AREASOF THE UNITED STATES. FOR EXAMPLE, VEHICLESCERTIFIED AND LABELED FOR SALE IN CALIFORNIACAN NOT BE SOLD IN THE STATES THAT REQUIREFEDERALLY CERTIFIED VEHICLES AND VEHICLESCERTIFIED TO FEDERAL STANDARDS CAN NOT BESOLD IN STATES THAT REQUIRE CALIFORNIACERTIFIED VEHICLES. IT IS THE SUBSEQUENT STAGEMANUFACTURER’S RESPONSIBILITY TO PURCHASEA VEHICLE CERTIFIED FOR THE STATE/AREA IN WHICHTHE VEHICLE WILL BE SOLD. EPA HAS STATED THATUNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES THEY WILL NOTENFORCE THESE REQUIREMENTS. FOR FURTHERGUIDANCE CONSULT EPA’S “POLICY ON CROSSBORDER SALES OF CALIFORNIA VEHICLES.”

IMPORTANT:It is the responsibility of the body builder, installer orsubsequent stage manufacturer to ensure that the maximumcompleted vehicle curb weight and frontal area specifiedby Ford are not exceeded. If these restrictions are exceeded,or if the vehicle is modified such that it will not comply withapplicable emission standards throughout its useful life, thebody builder, installer or subsequent stage manufacturerwill be considered a manufacturer for purposes of complyingwith U.S. Federal, California or Canadian exhaust andevaporative emission requirements, and Federal fueleconomy standards, labeling, and certain otherrequirements.

If it is necessary to convert a new non-high altitude vehicle forprincipal use at high altitude, a list of corresponding high andlow altitude engine calibrations is available free of charge fromyour local Ford dealer. Service publications indicate how tomodify vehicles to conform with appropriate high or low altitudeU.S. EPA regulations.

Further, to avoid any question of certification coverage,approval of any modification or use of an engine or vehiclewhich may render inoperative any of the emission controlcomponents must be obtained from the United StatesEnvironmental Protection Agency by the manufacturer makingsuch modification or use prior to distribution, sale, offering forsale, introduction, or delivery for introduction of the subjectvehicle into U.S. commerce. Additionally, the manufacturermaking such modification or use must obtain approval fromthe California Air Resources Board if the new vehicle will bedelivered for sale or use in the State of California.

IMPORTANT:To avoid any questions of certification coverage, ordersshould specify whether a high altitude emission system ornon-high altitude emission system is required.

IMPORTANT:For purposes of Government Regulation, a body builder,installer, or any subsequent manufacturer may beconsidered a manufacturer.

57

UNLEADED GASOLINE LABELRegulations no longer require the manufacturer to affixpermanent labels reading “Unleaded Gasoline Only” or“Unleaded Fuel Only” to vehicles destined for sale in the UnitedStates or Canada. Such labels may however be required forvehicles sold into other markets. It is the responsibility of thebody builder, installer or any subsequent manufacturer toproperly label vehicles for the market in which they are sold.

EXTERIOR NOISENew vehicles which have a gross vehicle weight rating in excessof 4536 kg [10,000 lb], include a partially or wholly enclosedoperator’s compartment, and are manufactured for use in theUnited States, must comply with U.S. Environmental ProtectionAgency’s exterior noise emission regulations for medium andheavy trucks (40 CFR Part 205, Subpart B) which establish anoise emission limit of 80 dB (A).

However, the Basic (Stripped) Chassis as built by Ford is tooincomplete to constitute a regulated vehicle, and Ford doesnot represent that it complies with those regulations. Withrespect to the Basic (Stripped) Chassis, it is the responsibilityof the subsequent stage manufacturer of that vehicle at thetime it first conforms to the regulatory definition of “vehicle” tocomply with the requirements imposed upon manufacturersby these regulations.

TAMPERING WITH NOISE CONTROLSFederal law prohibits the removal or rendering inoperative byany person, other than for purposes of maintenance, repair orreplacement, of any device or element of design incorporatedinto such vehicle for the purpose of noise control, prior to itssale or delivery to the ultimate purchaser or while it is in use,or the use of such vehicle after such device or element of designhas been removed or rendered inoperative by any person.

Among those acts presumed to constitute tampering are theacts listed below:

Removal of fender apron absorbers, fender apronbarriers, underbody noise shields or acousticalabsorptive material.

Removal of or rendering inoperative the engine speedgovernor, so as to allow engine speed to exceedmanufacturer’s specifications.

Removal or modification of air duct, air intake choke orsilencer, air cleaner or air cleaner element.

Removal of, or rendering inoperative, exhaust systemcomponents including the catalyst inlet pipe, muffler,outlet pipe, resonator or diffuser.

Removal of the fan shroud. Removal of or renderinginoperative the fan clutch.

New vehicles manufactured for sale in Canada must complywith applicable provisions of Canada Motor Vehicle SafetyStandard 1106, Noise.

Additional noise emissions information is contained in the FordTruck Body Builders Layout Book.

WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCEA copy of the appropriate Ford Truck Owners Guide andWarranty Facts Booklet must be installed in every vehicle priorto sale to the ultimate purchaser in order to provide emissionsystems warranty information and maintenance schedules. Italso provides, where required by EPA noise control regulationsfor vehicles having GVWR over 4536 kg [10,000 lb], noiseemissions warranty information, instructions for maintenance,use and repair of vehicle noise emission control systems, amaintenance record format, and list of prohibited tamperingacts.

EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONSAll 2001 Federal light and heavy duty trucks and all Californiavehicles with gasoline engines are required to comply withevaporative emissions requirements established by theEnvironmental Protection Agency or the California AirResources Board. Production fuel systems supplied onincomplete 2001 model year trucks manufactured by FordMotor Company comply with these requirements. If thesubsequent stage manufacturer adds to or modifies thefuel system in any manner, it becomes the responsibilityof the modifier to assure compliance with the applicableregulations. Refer to the Design Recommendation section ofthe Ford Truck Body Builders Book, for additional Fuel SystemEvaporative Emissions information.

SERVICE ENGINE SOON WARNING LIGHTThe “Service Engine Soon” warning light is used to indicatemalfunctions of the Electronic Engine Control System andcertain emissions-related components. For all incompletevehicles, except Basic (Stripped) Chassis (which is notequipped with an instrument panel), it is Ford installed andoperational.

The Econoline Basic (Stripped) Chassis vehicles, has thewarning light installed in the instrument cluster, which isshipped in the dunnage box, or temporarily installed on theExplorer. If an alternate instrument cluster is utilized, the finalstage manufacturer must install an operational light in theinstrument cluster. This light must glow amber and display themessage “Service Engine Soon”. It should be recognized thatthis light is a requirement of emission certification.

POWER TAKE-OFF CIRCUIT

A wire located under the instrument panel labeled “PowerTake-Off Circuit” is provided to minimize the inadvertentillumination of the “Service Engine Soon” while the PTO isengaged. Refer to the Design Recommendation section ofthe Body Builder Layout Book, for Power Take-off Installationsinformation that will locate the Ford provided circuit. Connectthe wire to the Power Take-Off Circuit as instructed and isolatethe wire labeled “Power Take-Off Circuit” from the solenoid toprevent damage to the Power Control Module (PCM).

EXPLORER BASIC (STRIPPED) CHASSIS

The US Postal Explorer Basic (Stripped) Chassis is certifiedas a complete vehicle for emissions. This vehicle is certifiedfor sale in all 50 states when completed in accordance withthe planned design (including frontal area and weights) asagreed to by Ford Motor Company and the US Postal Service.No portion of the emission control system may be modifiedin any way, and all vehicle labels provided by Ford MotorCompany must be installed on the vehicle prior to distributionto the US Postal Service. Vehicle modifications that affectemissions may result in the subsequent stage manufacturerbeing considered the manufacturer of the vehicle for emissioncompliance purposes, including responsibility for in-useemissions, warranty and recall.

58EMISSION CERTIFICATION INFORMATION

OZONE DEPLETING SUBSTANCE (ODS)

The Clean Air Act of 1990, Section 611 requires any product(i.e., completed vehicle) containing or manufactured with anyClass I Ozone Depleting Substance on, or after May 15,1993must be identified with a “clearly and conspicuously attachedlabel.”

Ford Motor Company has eliminated Class I ODS from itsmanufacturing processes. All 2001 Ford Truck incompletevehicles will not have Class I ODS content.

Manufacturers, including subsequent stage manufacturers,are required to label their products if the product, includingany component (whether manufactured by that manufactureror not), contains a Class I ODS or if the manufacturer used aClass I ODS in the manufacturing of the product. In the casewhere Ford provides a label saying the incomplete vehiclecontains a Class I ODS that information must be placed on theproduct warning label. (See EPA regulation on wording,placement, size and combining labels.) In Canada consult theappropriate Provincial or Territorial Ministry of Environment.

EMISSION CONTROL INFORMATION LABEL

To meet United States Environmental Protection Agencyregulations, the Important Vehicle Information (tune-up andfuel tank capacity) labels must be affixed in a location that isreadily visible after installation and in such a manner that itcannot be removed without destroying or defacing the label.The label shall not be affixed to any equipment that is easilydetached from the vehicle.

When emission control labels are supplied but not attachedto the vehicle (i.e., tune-up label or fuel tank label), they mustbe permanently mounted in a readily visible location to meetthe preceding requirements. In addition, whether the label isalready affixed or to be affixed, no components shall be installedwhich visibly obscure the label in any way that fails to satisfythe visibility requirements described in the California EmissionControl Label Specifications. For Canadian requirementsconsult Section 1100 8 (1) (d) (i), (ii), & (iii), as applicable.

CALIFORNIA FUEL VAPOR RECOVERY

California regulations require that the vehicle fuel systems bedesigned to accommodate a vapor recovery fueling nozzleincluding unobstructed access to the fill pipe. Fuel filler pipesinstalled per the figures on pages 47, 48, 49 and 50 will complywith the “Specifications For Fill Pipes and Openings of MotorVehicle Fuel Tanks” referenced in Title 13 CaliforniaAdministrative Code provided no part of the aftermarket body,as installed, intrudes within a 254mm [10 in] radius cylinderwhich has its axis parallel to the ground at point “Z”. Thecylindrical zone uses the axis described above, starts at theouter most surface of the Ford supplied fuel filler housing, andprojects outward (away from the frame). The fuel pipe housingcomponent is shown on the referenced figures and is attachedto the aftermarket body via 3/16 inch diameter rivets.

CALIFORNIA MOTOR VEHICLE EMISSION CONTROLLABEL

To meet California emission certification regulations, theEmission Control Information (tune-up) label must be welded,riveted or otherwise permanently attached to an area withinthe engine compartment or to the engine in such a way that itwill be readily visible to the average person after installation ofthe engine in a vehicle. In selecting an acceptable location,the manufacturer shall consider the possibility of accidentaldamage (e.g., possibility of tools or sharp instruments comingin contact with the label). The label shall be affixed in such amanner that it cannot be removed without being destroyed ordefaced, and shall not be affixed to any part which is likely tobe replaced during the vehicle’s useful life. For motor vehiclesrated at 3855 kg [8500 lb] GVWR or less, the label shall not beaffixed to any equipment which is easily detached from thevehicle. As used in these specifications, readily visible to theaverage person shall mean that the label shall be readablefrom a distance of 460 mm [18 in] without any obstructionsfrom vehicle or engine parts (including all manufactureravailable optional equipment), except for flexible parts,(e.g., vacuum hoses, ignition wires). Alternately, informationrequired by these specifications to be printed on the label shallbe no smaller than 8 point type size provided that no vehicleor engine parts, (including all manufacturer available optionalequipment), except for flexible parts that can be moved out ofthe way without disconnection obstruct the label.

Completed vehicles for retail sale in California require amachine-readable vehicle identification number (VIN) bar-codelabel made of paper, plastic, metal or other permanent materialwhich shall be affixed in a readily visible location to either thedoor-latch post next to the driver’s seating position, the dooredge that meets this door-latch post, or above the instrumentpanel in a location clearly visible through the lower left cornerof the windshield.

All incomplete vehicles except Basic (Stripped) Chassistype vehicles will conform to this standard.

Basic (Stripped) Chassis type vehicles:

Conformity with CARB Motor Vehicle Emission ControlLabel specifications for VIN label is not substantially affectedby the design of this incomplete vehicle. Accordingly, FordMotor Company makes no representation as to conformitywith this requirement.

For the VEC† and VIN labels, sufficient clearance shall beprovided to use a non-contact bar-code Reading Wand. Forthe tune-up label and vacuum hose routing diagram label, thelabel and any adhesives used shall be designed to withstandfor the vehicle’s total expected life, typical vehicle environmentconditions in the area where the label is attached. Typicalvehicle environmental conditions shall include, but are notlimited to, exposure to engine lubricants and coolants (e.g.,gasoline, motor oil, brake fluids, water, ethylene glycol),under hood temperatures, steam cleaning, and paints or paintsolvents.

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE (RFI)

The ignition system on your vehicle (if other than a Basic(Stripped) Chassis) has been designed to be capable ofcompliance with RFI requirements established by the Canadiangovernment. However, because Ford has no control over howan incomplete vehicle is completed by subsequent stagemanufacturers, Ford does not represent that the completedvehicle incorporating the Ford-built components will complywith those requirements. Any ignition system component(i.e.: spark plugs, ignition wiring, coil suppressor assembly,etc.) that is replaced should be replaced by the same FordMotor company part number or equivalent, to maintain RFIsuppression.

While there are currently no RFI regulations in the United Statesspecifically applicable to automotive ignition systems, all FordLight Trucks are built with ignition system components the sameor equivalent to those supplied on Canadian vehicles.

Ford Motor Company recommends that all ignition systemservice be performed at a Ford authorized service facility tohelp hold RFI emissions levels to a minimum.

Additional RFI information is contained on page 54 of thismanual.

EMISSION CERTIFICATION LIMITATIONS FOR VEHICLESEQUIPPED WITH 4.2 L [256 C.I.D.] ENGINE

Devices that emit radio frequency (RF) energy such as AM/FM radios, mobile telecommunications systems (two-wayradios, telephones) and radio controlled security systems aresubject to the rules and regulations of the FederalCommunications Communication (FCC), including 47 CFRParts 2 and 15. Any such system installed in a vehicle shouldcomply with those rules and should be installed only by aqualified technician. In addition, to ensure continuedcompliance with the FCC’s regulations, RF devices must notbe modified or changed in a manner not expressly approvedby Ford Motor Company Mobile Communication Systems. RFdevices particularly, if not properly installed, may adverselyaffect the operation of the vehicle. For example, such systemswhen operated may cause the engine to stumble or stall. Inaddition, such systems themselves may be damaged, or theiroperation affected by the operation of the vehicle. (CitizensBand [CB] transceivers, garage door openers, and othertransmitters whose power output is 5 watts or less, ordinarilywill NOT affect vehicle operation.)

Because Ford has no control over the operation or manufactureof such systems, or their installation, Ford cannot assumeresponsibility for any adverse effects or damage if thisequipment is used.

TO RELY ON THE EMISSION CERTIFICATION APPROVAL RECEIVED BY FORD, NEITHER THEMAXIMUM UNLOADED VEHICLE WEIGHT NOR ITS ACCOMPANYING MAXIMUM COMPLETEDVEHICLE FRONTAL AREA MAY BE EXCEEDED. IF EITHER FACTOR IS EXCEEDED, THE FINALSTAGE MANUFACTURER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR OBTAINING EMISSION CERTIFICATION FROMTHE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY.
