hybrid-electric vehicle (HEV):
•Always assume the high-voltage battery and associated components
are energized and fully charged.
•Exposed electrical components, wires, and high-voltage batteries
present potential high-voltage shock hazards.
•Venting/off-gassing high-voltage battery vapors are potentially toxic
and flammable.
•Physical damage to the vehicle or high-voltage battery may result in
immediate or delayed release of toxic and/or flammable gases and fire.
Vehicle information and general safety practices:

WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID
Add fluid to fill the reservoir if the
level is low. In very cold weather, do
not fill the reservoir completely.
Only use a washer fluid that meets
Ford specifications. Do not use any
special washer fluid such as
windshield water repellent type fluid
or bug wash. They may cause
squeaking, chatter noise, streaking and smearing. Refer toMaintenance
product specifications and capacitiesin this chapter.
State or local regulations on volatile organic compounds may restrict the
use of methanol, a common windshield washer antifreeze additive.
Washer fluids containing non-methanol antifreeze agents should be used
only if they provide cold weather protection without damaging the
vehicle’s paint finish, wiper blades or washer system.
WARNING:If you operate your vehicle in temperatures below
40°F (5°C), use washer fluid with antifreeze protection. Failure
to use washer fluid with antifreeze protection in cold weather could
result in impaired windshield vision and increase the risk of injury or
accident.

To ensure proper operation of the battery management system (BMS),
any electrical devices that are added to the vehicle should not have their
ground connection made directly at the negative battery post. A
connection at the negative battery post can cause inaccurate
measurements of the battery condition and potential incorrect system
operation.
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.

Charge Port and Light Ring
Note:Do not force the charge port door open or closed. Forcing the
door open or closed will damage the charge port.
The light ring located around the charge port indicates the charge status
of your battery while connected to a charge station or convenience cord.
The charge port light ring is divided into four quadrants that inform you
of the charge status.
There is a cord acknowledgement feature that will be activated when a
charge cycle is initiated. The four light quadrants will each individually
flash clockwise starting with the top right light and ending with the top
left, two full times confirming a charging coupler has been detected.
You can use your keyfob to view the vehicles charge status at any time
by pressing the unlock button. The light ring will light up the
corresponding quadrant(s) so that the current state of the vehicles
charge can be determined. If the charge is below 25 percent the light
ring will not illuminate. Don’t forget to press the lock button on your
keyfob to re-lock the vehicle.
Different sequences of the light ring will represent the status of the
charge.

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.
