FORD 2002 F-550 v.2 - Manual (Page 7)

Using your vehicle as an ambulance
If your light truck is equipped with the Ford Ambulance Preparation
Package, it may be utilized as an ambulance. Ford urges ambulance
manufacturers to follow the recommendations of the Ford Incomplete
Vehicle Manual, Ford Truck Body Builder’s Layout Book and the QVM
guidelines as well as pertinent supplements. For additional information,
please contact the Truck Body Builders Advisory Service 1–877–840–4338.
Use of your Ford light truck as an ambulance, without the Ford Ambulance
Preparation Package voids the Ford New Vehicle Limited Warranty and
may void the Emissions Warranties. In addition, ambulance usage without
the preparation package could cause high underbody temperatures,
overpressurized fuel and a risk of spraying fuel which could lead to fires.
If your vehicle is equipped with the
Ford Ambulance Preparation
Package, it will be indicated on the
Certification label. The label is
located on the driver’s side door
pillar or on the rear edge of the
driver’s door. You can determine
whether the ambulance
manufacturer followed Ford’s
recommendations by directly
contacting that manufacturer. Ford
Ambulance Preparation Package is
only available on certain 7.3L Diesel
engine equipped vehicles.
