INTRODUCTION
WARNING:Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle
control, accident and injury. Ford strongly recommends that
drivers use extreme caution when using any device or feature that may
take their focus off the road. Your primary responsibility is the safe
operation of the vehicle. We recommend against the use of any
handheld device while driving, encourage the use of voice-operated
systems when possible and that you become aware of applicable state
and local laws that may affect use of electronic devices while driving.
Note: Some features are not available while the vehicle is moving.
This system uses a four-corner strategy to provide quick access to
vehicle features and settings. The comprehensive touchscreen provides
easy interaction with your cellular phone, multimedia, climate control
and navigation system. The corners display any active modes within
those menus, such as your phone being connected or the climate
temperature. MENU

Note:Do not pull the wall plug

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.
