Charging
Note:The vehicle must be in (P)
Park to charge.
To charge your high-voltage battery:
1. Put the vehicle in (P) park and
power down the vehicle.
2. Press the indentation located on
the charge port door and the door
will rotate open.
3. Plug the charging coupler into the vehicles charge port receptacle and
make sure the button “clicks” confirming that it is completely engaged.
4. Verify that the cord acknowledgement feature activates. This indicates
the beginning of a normal charge cycle.
5. If using a 240 volt charging station, follow the instructions on the
charge station to begin the charging process.
When charging, the light ring will display how far along the charge is:
• When the top right quadrant is pulsing the charge is between
0–25 percent.
• When the top right quadrant is solidly lit and the bottom right
quadrant is pulsing the charge is between 25–50 percent.
• When both right side quadrants are solidly lit and the bottom left
quadrant is pulsing the charge is between 50–75 percent.
• When three quadrants are solidly lit and the top left quadrant is
pulsing the charge is between 75–100 percent.
• When the entire ring is solidly lit, the charge is complete.
Note: The illuminated ring will shut off one minute after reaching a full
charge.
Note: If a vehicle charging system fault is detected at any point in a
charge cycle the entire light ring will flash continuously for one minute
and then shut off. If this happens unplug, and then re-plug the charging
coupler into the charge port receptacle. If the problem persists contact
your authorized dealer.

Convenience Charging and MyFord Mobile
The setting up of the charging convenience features is primarily done
with the MyFord Mobile smart phone application. Visit myfordmobile.com
for more complete information and to set up your MyFord Mobile
account.
Your electric vehicle also has some convenience features to improve your
charging experience:
• Value Charge: The vehicle schedules charging at the lowest available
utility rates. Contact your utility company to see what rates are
available.
• Charge Now: Fully charge your vehicle at the quickest rate. The
vehicle starts charging immediately after you connect the charging
coupler into the vehicle.
• My GO Time: Setting My GO times through the MyFord Mobile
application allows you to set charging schedules and cabin
preconditioning settings so your vehicle is ready to drive when you
are. By setting a My GO time the vehicles charge can be completed
before your next set drive time. A calendar view allows you to
program two My GO Times per day for each of the seven days of the
week. Remember, your vehicle must be plugged in for My GO time to
work.
• Cabin Preconditioning: Get the most miles out of every charge by
preconditioning your vehicle while it’s still plugged in and charging.
Use your smart phone to set the cabin temperature and departure
time before you leave so you use energy from your home wall outlet
instead of your battery to heat or cool your vehicle.
