Switching off traction control
If the vehicle is stuck in snow, mud or sand, and seems to lose power,
switching off the traction control feature of the AdvanceTracsystem
may be beneficial because the wheels are allowed to spin. This will
restore full power and will enhance momentum through the obstacle.
The traction control system can be turned off through the message
center. See Message center in theInstrument Cluster chapter for more
information. If you switch off the traction control, the stability control off
light will illuminate steadily. Selecting traction control on will turn off the
stability control off light.
Steering
Your vehicle is equipped with an Electric Power Steering (EPS) system.
There is no fluid reservoir to check or fill.
If your vehicle loses electrical power while you are driving (or if the
ignition is turned off), you can steer the vehicle manually, but it takes
more effort. Under extreme usage conditions, the steering effort may
increase. This occurs to prevent overheating and permanent damage to
your steering system. If this should occur, you will neither lose the ability
to steer the vehicle manually nor will it cause permanent damage.
Typical steering and driving maneuvers will allow the system to cool and
steering assist will return to normal.
The EPS system has diagnostic checks that continuously monitor the
EPS system to ensure proper operation. When a system error is
detected, the following message STEERING ASSIST FAULT SERVICE
REQUIRED, STEERING FAULT SERVICE NOW, STEERING LOSS STOP
SAFELY may display in the multifunction display. Refer to the Message
center in theInstrument Cluster chapter for more information.
WARNING:The EPS has diagnostics checks that continuously
monitor the EPS to ensure proper operation of the electronic
system. When an electronic error is detected, the message STEERING
ASSIST FAULT SERVICE REQUIRED will be displayed in the message
center. If this happens, stop the vehicle in a safe place and turn off the
engine. After at least 10 seconds, reset the system by restarting the engine,
and watch the message center for STEERING ASSIST FAULT SERVICE
REQUIRED. If the message returns, or returns while driving, take the
vehicle to your dealer to have it checked. With the message displayed, the
steering assist is turned off, making the vehicle harder to steer.

Note:Electrical or electronic accessories or components added to the
vehicle by the dealer or the owner may adversely affect battery
performance and durability and may also affect the performance of other
electrical systems in the vehicle.
When a battery replacement is required, the battery should only be
replaced with a Ford recommended replacement battery that matches
the electrical requirements of the vehicle.
Note: The clock and the preset radio stations must be reset once the
battery is reconnected.
•Always dispose of automotive
batteries in a responsible manner.
Follow your local authorized
standards for disposal. Call your
local authorized recycling center
to find out more about recycling
automotive batteries.
HIGH-VOLTAGE BATTERY
WARNING: This battery pack should only be serviced by an
authorized electric vehicle technician. Improper handling can
result in personal injury or death.
Your vehicle consists of various high-voltage components and wiring. All
of the high-voltage power flows through specific wiring assemblies which
are labeled as such and/or are covered with a solid orange convolute or
orange striped tape. Do not come in contact with these components.
No regular maintenance, other than regular charging is required.
The high-voltage battery system is a high-voltage, lightweight lithium-ion
battery system comprised of two individual packs. One pack is located in
the rear cargo area behind the second row seats, and the other is located
underneath the vehicle. The high-voltage battery system uses an advanced,
active liquid heating and cooling system to regulate high-voltage battery
temperature and help maximize high-voltage battery life.
