REMOTE START CLIMATE OPERATION (C-MAX ENERGI ONLY)
The climate control system adjusts the cabin temperature during remote
start.
You cannot adjust the system during remote start operation. Turn the
ignition on to return the system to its previous settings. You can now
make adjustments. You will need to turn certain vehicle-dependent
features back on, such as:
•heated seats

You can adjust the settings using the information display controls.
See theInformation Displayschapter.
Automatic Climate Systems

In hot weather, the system is set to 72°F (22°C).
In moderate weather, the system either heats or cools (based on
previous settings). The rear defroster, heated mirrors and heated
seats do not automatically turn on.

heated mirrors automatically turn on.
Last Settings

settings through the information display setting: Remote Start > Climate
Control > Heater – A/C > Last Settings. The climate control system
automatically uses the settings last selected before you turned off the
engine.

Tire Replacement Requirements
WARNING:Only use replacement tires and wheels that are the
same size, load index, speed rating and type (such as P-metric
versus LT-metric or all-season versus all-terrain) as those originally
provided by Ford. The recommended tire and wheel size may be found on
either the Safety Compliance Certification Label (affixed to either the door
hinge pillar, door-latch post, or the door edge that meets the door-latch
post, next to the driver’s seating position), or the Tire Label which is
located on the B-Pillar or edge of the driver’s door. If this information is not
found on these labels, then you should contact your authorized dealer as
soon as possible. Use of any tire or wheel not recommended by Ford can
affect the safety and performance of your vehicle, which could result in an
increased risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and
death. Additionally the use of non-recommended tires and wheels could
cause steering, suspension, axle, transfer case or power transfer unit
failure. If you have questions regarding tire replacement, contact your
authorized dealer as soon as possible.
WARNING:To reduce the risk of serious injury, when mounting
replacement tires and wheels, you should not exceed the maximum
pressure indicated on the sidewall of the tire to set the beads without
additional precautions listed below. If the beads do not seat at the
maximum pressure indicated, re-lubricate and try again.
When inflating the tire for mounting pressures up to 20 psi (1.38 bar)
greater than the maximum pressure on the tire sidewall, the following
precautions must be taken to protect the person mounting the tire:
1. Make sure that you have the correct tire and wheel size.
2. Lubricate the tire bead and wheel bead seat area again.
3. Stand at a minimum of 12 feet (3.66 meters) away from the tire
wheel assembly.
4. Use both eye and ear protection.
For a mounting pressure more than 20 psi (1.38 bar) greater than the
maximum pressure, a Ford dealer or other tire service professional
should do the mounting.
Always inflate steel carcass tires with a remote air fill with the person
inflating standing at a minimum of 12 feet (3.66 meters) away from the
tire wheel assembly.
Your vehicle is equipped with tires designed to provide a safe ride and
handling capability.
