Warning Chime

We currently have just over 6,000 miles on our '08 F450 and I have started hearing some type of warning (?) chime. I looked in the owners manaul but found no help. Has any one else come across this?

Does your instrument pannel show anything? I don't know of any WARNING chimes that don't show A warning light. Should call your dealer!

Thanks guys for your input. I think we have it figured out. And boy do I feel dumb. Turns out the "chime" was not coming from the truck at all. It was coming from the wife's brand new cell phone. Color me red.
