BREAKING-IN
You need to break in new tires for
approximately 300 miles (480
kilometers). During this time, your vehicle
may exhibit some unusual driving
characteristics. The engine also needs to
break in. Avoid hard accelerations and
driving too fast for the first 1000 miles
(1600 kilometers). If possible, avoid
carrying heavy loads up steep grades
during the break-in period.
ECONOMICAL DRIVING
Several things affect your fuel economy:
•
How you drive your vehicle
• How you maintain your vehicle
• The conditions you drive your vehicle
in
You may improve your fuel economy by
keeping these things in mind:
• Avoid constant accelerating in order to
change lanes and get around other
vehicles.
• Drive your vehicle at reasonable
speeds. Traveling at 65 miles per hour
(105 kilometers per hour) uses about
15 percent less fuel than traveling at 75
miles per hour (121 kilometers per
hour).
• Drive at steady speeds without
stopping.
• Anticipate stops. Slowing down your
vehicle may eliminate the need to stop.
• Keep the tires properly inflated and use
only the recommended size.
• Turn off the heater if you do not need
it. When you have the heater on, keep
it at the lowest blower and
temperature setting necessary to be
comfortable. •
When it is cold outside, park in a sunny
location or climate-controlled
environment. This may save fuel by
reducing the energy needed to heat the
cabin.
• Turn off the air conditioning if you do
not need it. When you have the air
conditioning on, keep it at the lowest
blower and highest temperature
setting necessary to be comfortable.
• When it is hot or sunny outside, parking
in a shaded or climate-controlled
environment will save fuel by reducing
the energy needed to cool the cabin.
• For the C-Max Energi, use
preconditioning to improve your fuel
economy. For more information on
preconditioning, See High Voltage
Battery (page 146).
• Turn off the heated seats if you are not
using them.
• Turn off the defroster when you no
longer need it for visibility, turning it off
will help you improve your fuel
economy.
• For the C-Max Energi, plug in and
recharge the high voltage battery
whenever possible.
• Use ECO Cruise Control, especially in
hilly terrain. For information on
enabling eco-cruise, See
Cruise
Control (page 171).
• Use low gear
L shift position when
enhanced engine braking is needed.
Otherwise, use drive gear
D shift
position.
• Combine errands and minimize
stop-and-go driving. A warmed up
engine works more efficiently. When
running errands, go to the furthest
destination first and then work your
way back home.
• Close the windows for high-speed
driving.

C-MAX (CCG) Driving Hints
2.
Check all battery terminals and remove
any excessive corrosion before you
attach the battery cables. Ensure that
vent caps are tight and level.
3. Turn the heater fan on in both vehicles
to protect from any electrical surges.
Turn all other accessories off. Connecting the Jumper Cables
Your vehicle has a 12-volt battery that has
two prongs accessible from under the
hood. Your vehicle can be jumped the
same way conventional vehicles can by
using these prongs. The illustration below
shows the two connector prongs used for
jump-starting your vehicle.A. Positive prong (+)
B. Negative prong (-)
Note:
In the illustration, the vehicle on the
bottom is used to designate the assisting
(boosting) battery.
Note: Remove the red cap from the positive
prong (A) on your vehicle before connecting
the cables.

CHANGING A FUSE
Fuses WARNING
Always replace a fuse with one that
has the specified amperage rating.
Using a fuse with a higher amperage
rating can cause severe wire damage and
could start a fire. If electrical components in the vehicle are
not working, a fuse may have blown. Blown
fuses are identified by a broken wire within
the fuse. Check the appropriate fuses
before replacing any electrical
components.

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
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.
D
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.
E
Climate 2,3
includes 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.

Engine On due to
The engine is on to warm-up. The vehicle
returns to electric mode when the engine
is warm. This reason may reappear during
a drive or after shutting the vehicle down
for a short period. This is normal operation.
Engine Cold (Hybrid only)
The engine is on because of the heater
setting. Reduce or turn off the heater
setting to return to electric mode.
Heater Setting
The engine is on because the vehicle speed
exceeds the level for electric mode opera-
tion. Reduce the speed to return to electric
mode.
High Speed
The engine is on when you apply pressure
to the accelerator pedal or when you turn
the speed control on. Reduce pressure on
the accelerator pedal or turn off the speed
control to return to full electric mode.
Acceleration
The engine is on because the vehicle is in
neutral gear. Shift out of neutral gear to
return to electric mode.
Neutral Gear
The engine is on because the vehicle is in
low gear. Shift out of low gear to return to
electric mode.
Low Gear
The engine is on to charge the high-voltage
battery. The vehicle returns to electric mode
once the battery is charged.
Battery Charging
The engine is on to provide increased
powertrain braking when you turn on the
grade assist feature. Turn off the grade
assist feature to return to electric mode.
