DATA RECORDING
Service Data Recording
Service data recorders in your vehicle are
capable of collecting and storing
diagnostic information about your vehicle.
This potentially includes information about
the performance or status of various
systems and modules in the vehicle, such
as engine, throttle, steering or brake systems. In order to properly diagnose and
service your vehicle, Ford Motor Company,
Ford of Canada, and service and repair
facilities may access or share among them
vehicle diagnostic information received
through a direct connection to your vehicle
when diagnosing or servicing your vehicle.
Additionally, when your vehicle is in for
service or repair, Ford Motor Company,
Ford of Canada, and service and repair
facilities may access or share among them
data for vehicle improvement purposes.
For U.S. only (if equipped), if you choose
to use the SYNC Vehicle Health Report,
you consent that certain diagnostic
information may also be accessed
electronically by Ford Motor Company and
Ford authorized service facilities, and that
the diagnostic information may be used
for any purpose. See SYNC™ (page 305).
Event Data Recording
This vehicle is equipped with an event
data recorder. The main purpose of an
event data recorder is to record, in
certain crash or near crash-like
situations, such as an airbag
deployment or hitting a road obstacle;
this data will assist in understanding
how a vehicle
’s systems performed.
The event data recorder is designed to
record data related to vehicle dynamics
and safety systems for a short period
of time, typically 30 seconds or less.
The event data recorder in this vehicle
is designed to record such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle
were operating;
• Whether or not the driver and
passenger safety belts were
buckled/fastened;
• How far (if at all) the driver was
depressing the accelerator and/or
the brake pedal; and

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
MyKey allows you to program keys with
restricted driving modes to promote good
driving habits. Program all but one of the
keys to activate the restricted modes.
Any keys that remain unprogrammed are
referred to as administrator keys or admin
keys. They can be used to:
•
create a MyKey
• program optional MyKey settings
• clear all MyKey features.
Once you program a MyKey, you can
access the following information through
the information display to learn:
• The number of admin keys and MyKeys
programmed to your vehicle.
• The total distance your vehicle traveled
with a MyKey.
Note: Switch the ignition on to use the
system.
Note: All MyKeys are programmed to the
same settings. You cannot program them
individually.
Note: In vehicles equipped with the
intelligent access key (push-button start):
When both a MyKey and an admin fob are
present, your vehicle will recognize the
admin fob to start the engine.
Standard Settings
The following settings cannot be changed:
• Belt-Minder. You cannot disable this
feature. With a MyKey, the five-minute
timer does not expire and the audio
system mutes.
• Early low fuel. The low-fuel warning
activates earlier, giving MyKey users
more time to refuel. •
Driver assist features, if equipped, are
forced on: Rear parking aid, blind spot
information system (BLIS) with cross
traffic alert, lane keeping system and
collision warning system.
• Satellite radio adult content
restrictions activate.
Optional Settings
You can configure MyKey settings while
programming a MyKey or change them
while using an admin key.
• Vehicle speed limit: You can set various
vehicle speed limits of 65, 70, 75 and
80 mph (105, 113, 121 and 130 km/h) so
that drivers receive visual warnings and
an audible tone when they reach the
selected top speed.
• Vehicle speed minders: You can set
various vehicle speed minders of 45,
55 or 65 mph (75, 90, or 105 km/h) so
that drivers receive visual warnings and
an audible tone when they exceed the
preselected vehicle speed limit.
• Audio system maximum volume limit:
You can limit the audio system's
maximum output to 45% and disable
the speed-sensitive compensated
volume feature. The audio system
displays a message when drivers
attempt to exceed the volume limit.
• Always on setting: Certain driving aids
cannot be disabled or turned off when
drivers use a MyKey, such as
AdvanceTrac, 911 Assist or the Do not
disturb feature (if your vehicle is
equipped with these features).
Vehicles with Keyless Entry
If a MyKey and an admin key are present
within the vehicle at the same time, your
vehicle will recognize the admin key only.

You can stop the engine shutdown, or reset
the timer, at any point before the
30-second countdown has expired by
doing any of the following:
•
You can reset the timer by interacting
with your vehicle (such as pressing the
brake pedal or accelerator pedal).
• You can temporarily switch off the
shutdown feature any time the ignition
is on (for the current ignition cycle
only). Use the information display to
do so. See Information Displays
(page 83).
• During the countdown before engine
shutdown, you are prompted to press
OK or RESET (depending on your type
of information display) to temporarily
switch the feature off (for the current
ignition cycle only).
Stopping the Engine When Your
Vehicle is Stationary
Vehicles with an Ignition Key
1. Move the transmission selector lever to position P (automatic transmission)
or

electrical circuits, warning lamps and
indicators.
Note: If the engine is idling for 30 minutes,
the ignition and engine automatically shut
down. Stopping the Engine When Your
Vehicle is Moving WARNING
Switching off the engine when the
vehicle is still moving will result in a
loss of brake and steering assistance.
The steering will not lock, but higher effort
will be required. When the ignition is
switched off, some electrical circuits,
warning lamps and indicators may also be
off. Vehicles with an Ignition Key
1. Move the transmission selector lever
to position N (automatic transmission)
or neutral (manual transmission) and
use the brakes to bring your vehicle to
a safe stop.
2. When your vehicle has stopped, move the transmission selector lever to
position
P (automatic transmission)
or 1 (manual transmission) and turn
the key to position 0.
3. Apply the parking brake.
Vehicles with Keyless Start
1. Move the transmission selector lever to position
N and use the brakes to
bring your vehicle to a safe stop.

Fusion/Mondeo (CC7) Starting and Stopping the Engine

3. Insert the screwdriver (or similar tool)
into the access hole and press the lever

Automatic Transmission Adaptive
Learning
This feature is designed to increase
durability and provide consistent shift feel
over the life of the vehicle. A new vehicle
or transmission may have firm and/or soft
shifts. This operation is considered normal
and will not affect function or durability of
the transmission. Over time, the adaptive
learning process will fully update
transmission operation. Additionally,
whenever the battery is disconnected or a
new battery installed, the strategy must
be relearned.
If Your Vehicle Gets Stuck In Mud
or Snow
Note: Do not rock the vehicle if the engine
is not at normal operating temperature or
damage to the transmission may occur.
Note: Do not rock the vehicle for more than
a minute or damage to the transmission and
tires may occur, or the engine may overheat. If your vehicle gets stuck in mud or snow,
it may be rocked out by shifting between
forward and reverse gears, stopping
between shifts in a steady pattern. Press
lightly on the accelerator in each gear.
HILL START ASSIST
(IF EQUIPPED)
WARNINGS
The system does not replace the
parking brake. When you leave your
vehicle, always apply the parking
brake and put the vehicle in
P (Park). You must remain in your vehicle once
you have activated the system.
During all times, you are responsible
for controlling your vehicle,
supervising the system and
intervening, if required. If the engine is revved excessively, or
if a malfunction is detected, the
system will be deactivated.
The system makes it easier to pull away
when your vehicle is on a slope without the
need to use the parking brake.
When the system is active, your vehicle will
remain stationary on the slope for two to
three seconds after you release the brake
pedal. This allows you time to move your
foot from the brake to the accelerator
pedal. The brakes are released
automatically once the engine has
developed sufficient drive to prevent your
vehicle from rolling down the slope. This
is an advantage when pulling away on a
slope, (for example from a car park ramp,
traffic lights or when reversing uphill into
a parking space).
The system will activate automatically on
any slope which can result in significant
vehicle rollback.
