Stopping:The vehicle is equipped with a regenerative braking system.
Slowing the vehicle adds charge to the high voltage battery which
improves vehicle range.
Transmission Operation: This electric vehicle is equipped with a single
speed transmission. Torque is delivered to the wheels seamlessly without
shifting associated with a normal automatic transmission.
Neutral: N (Neutral gear)
Low: L (Low gear) is designed to mimic the enhanced engine braking
available in conventional vehicles. L (Low gear) will produce a higher
level of regenerative braking when your foot is off the accelerator pedal.
This is normal and will not damage your vehicle.
Reverse: R (Reverse gear)
Unique electric operating characteristics
Your electric vehicle, with its new technology, behaves differently
compared to a conventional vehicle or hybrid. Here is a description of
the major differences:
Battery: The best battery performance and life comes when the high
voltage battery is at a moderate temperature. The high voltage battery is
heated and cooled by a liquid cooling loop. The high voltage battery
consists of two packs one located under the rear seat and the second
located behind the rear seat in the trunk of the vehicle.
Plugging In: The electric vehicle must be plugged in to recharge the high
voltage battery. The vehicle is equipped with a high voltage charge port on
the front left hand fender for charging. The vehicle comes standard with a
120V convenience cord set which is located in the trunk. This can be
plugged into any standard electric outlet and will fully charge the high
voltage battery in about 18-20 hours. Ford has partnered with Best Buy to
offer a 240V Leviton charger that is capable of fully charging the battery in
3 to 4 hours. The charge port door is designed for convenient “push-push”
opening and closing. Press on the door in the location of the indentation to
open the door. To close the door, press in the same location until the door
has rotated back into position and clicked into place. To charge the vehicle,
open the charge port door and plug the charging coupler into the charge
port receptacle. You will know the connection has been made when the
charge port light ring illuminates the quadrants individually. The light ring
will then display battery state of charge in 25% increments.
Braking: Your electric vehicle is equipped with standard hydraulic
braking and regenerative braking. Regenerative braking is performed by
your transmission and it captures brake energy and stores it in your high
voltage battery. This system greatly improves driving range especially in
stop and go city traffic.

rules and with RSS-210 of Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
