Adding Inverter System
Controller Coolant
1. Open the inverter system
controller coolant reservoir cap.
2. Use a funnel to add prediluted coolant to the inverter system
controller coolant reservoir. Make
sure that the level is between the
MIN and MAX marks on the
inverter system controller coolant
reservoir. Use prediluted coolant
meeting the Ford specification.
See Capacities and
Specifications (page 330).
3. Close the inverter system controller coolant reservoir cap.
Whenever you add coolant, check the
coolant level in the inverter system
controller coolant reservoir the next
few times you drive the vehicle. If
necessary, add enough prediluted
coolant to bring the inverter system
controller coolant level to the proper
level.
Recycled Engine Coolant
Ford Motor Company does not
recommend the use of recycled
engine coolant since a Ford-approved
recycling process is not yet available.
Used engine coolant should be
disposed of in an appropriate manner.
Follow your community ’s regulations
and standards for recycling and
disposing of automotive fluids. Severe Climates
If you drive in extremely cold climates:
•
It may be necessary to have an
authorized Ford dealer increase
the coolant concentration above
50%.
• A coolant concentration of 60%
will provide improved freeze point
protection. Engine coolant
concentrations above 60% will
decrease the overheat protection
characteristics of the engine
coolant and may cause engine
damage.
If you drive in extremely hot climates:
• It may be necessary to have an
authorized Ford dealer decrease
the coolant concentration to 40%.
• A coolant concentration of 40%
will provide improved overheat
protection. Engine coolant
concentrations below 40% will
decrease the corrosion/freeze
protection characteristics of the
engine coolant and may cause
engine damage.
Vehicles driven year-round in
non-extreme climates should use
prediluted coolant meeting the Ford
specification for optimum cooling
system and engine protection.

MKZ (CC9) Maintenance
Tire Quality Grades apply to new
pneumatic passenger car tires.
They do not apply to deep tread,
winter-type snow tires,
space-saver or temporary use
spare tires, light truck or LT type
tires, tires with nominal rim
diameters of 10 to 12 inches or
limited production tires as defined
in Title 49 Code of Federal
Regulations Part 575.104 (c)(2).
U.S. Department of
Transportation Tire quality
grades: The U.S. Department of
Transportation requires Ford
Motor Company to give you the
following information about tire
grades exactly as the government
has written it.
Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a
comparative rating based on the
wear rate of the tire when tested
under controlled conditions on a
specified government test course.
For example, a tire graded 150
would wear one and one-half (1
½) times as well on the
government course as a tire
graded 100. The relative
performance of tires depends
upon the actual conditions of their
use, however, and may depart
significantly from the norm due to
variations in driving habits, service
practices, and differences in road
characteristics and climate. Traction AA A B C WARNING
The traction grade assigned
to this tire is based on
straight-ahead braking traction
tests, and does not include
acceleration, cornering,
hydroplaning or peak traction
characteristics. The traction grades, from highest
to lowest are AA, A, B, and C. The
grades represent the tire
’s ability
to stop on wet pavement as
measured under controlled
conditions on specified
government test surfaces of
asphalt and concrete. A tire
marked C may have poor traction
performance.
Temperature A B C WARNING
The temperature grade for
this tire is established for a
tire that is properly inflated and
not overloaded. Excessive speed,
underinflation, or excessive
loading, either separately or in
combination, can cause heat
buildup and possible tire failure. The temperature grades are A
(the highest), B and C,
representing the tire
’s resistance
to the generation of heat and its
ability to dissipate heat when
tested under controlled conditions
on a specified indoor laboratory

Power
Motor-to-wheel flow shows the direction of power flow between
the wheels and the electric motor.
A
Electric Motor
represents the hybrid electric motor. The higher the
motor power is, the larger the circle around this node. Any time the
vehicle is ready to be driven, the motor node illuminates.
B
Battery-to-motor flow 1
shows the direction of power flow between
the high-voltage battery and the electric motor. Flow toward the motor
indicates the battery is providing power to accelerate the vehicle
(discharging the battery). Flow toward the battery indicates the electric
motor is providing power to the battery (charging the battery).
C
Other 2
includes 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.
D
Climate 2,3
includes the power usage from the high-voltage climate
control components such as the electric A/C compressor. The higher
the power usage is from these components, the larger the circle around
this node.
