2013 FORD C MAX climate control

Helpful Hints
•Make sure the interior of your vehicle is as quiet as possible. Wind
noise from open windows and road vibrations may prevent the system
from correctly recognizing spoken commands.
•After pressing the voice icon, wait until after the tone sounds and
Listening appears before saying a command. Any command spoken
prior to this does not register with the system.
•Speak naturally, without long pauses between words.
•At any time, you can interrupt the system while it is speaking by
pressing the voice icon.
Accessing a List of Available Commands
•If you use the touchscreen, press the Settings icon >Help>Voice
Command List.
•If you use the steering wheel control, press the voice icon. After the
tone, speak your command clearly.

D.Plug (Energi only)appears when you plug your vehicle into the
wall. When charging the high voltage battery from the wall, you can see
flow from the plug to the battery on the screen.
•Accessoriesindicates electrical power demands from your vehicle’s
accessory systems. Accessories use power but do not contribute to
making the vehicle move. The power flow displays power usage from
the climate control system and other accessories separately.
E.Otherincludes all power usage from the low voltage accessories such
as the climate control fan, headlights and heated seats. The higher the
power usage is from these accessories, the larger the circle around the
node. This node illuminates anytime the vehicle is on since there is
always some low level power in use.
F.Climateincludes the power usage from the high-voltage climate
control components such as the electric A/C compressor and the electric
heater (Energi only). The higher the power usage is from these
components, the larger the circle around this node.
Note:The climate control system may determine A/C is necessary even
when you turn it off. In this case, you may see some climate power when
the A/C is off.
G.High voltage battery powerrepresents your high-voltage battery.
A circle illuminates around the node when the high-voltage battery is
receiving power from regenerative braking, engine charging or external
charging (when you plug it in). The higher the power usage is from the
high-voltage battery, the larger the circle around this node.
H.Fuelrepresents the fuel tank in the vehicle.
I.Fuel-to-engine flowshows flow from the fuel tank to the engine
when the engine is on and using fuel (there are some cases where the
engine is on, but not using any fuel). When the engine is on, but not
using fuel, the engine node is active, but the fuel flow path is off. An
example of this is when your foot is off the accelerator pedal and the
vehicle is traveling at a high speed.
J.Engine On due toprovides you with the reason(s) the gasoline
engine is on. When the gasoline engine is off, this display does not
appear.Engine On due toreasons displayed by the system are in a
chart following this list.
K.Motor-to-engine flowshows the direction of power flow between the
engine and the electric motor. The direction indicates if the engine is
providing power to the high-voltage electrical system, or if the high-voltage
electrical system is providing power to control or start the engine.
