You can also set up the charging
convenience features using MyFord Mobile
over the internet or smartphone

www.myfordmobile.com.
Privacy Notice and GPS Mapping with
MyFord Mobile in the US and Canada
MyFord Mobile allows for GPS mapping
when you register your vehicle to a MyFord
Mobile account. To remove your vehicle
from the account, thereby removing GPS
mapping ability, you can perform a Master
Reset in your vehicle. See Settings (page
330).
Prior to transferring ownership of your
vehicle, owners may choose to execute a
Master Reset or Factory Reset (completed
via the MyFord Mobile website). Either
method will remove your vehicle from all
MyFord Mobile accounts.
We recommend you perform a Master
Reset upon taking possession of your
vehicle to remove it from any existing
MyFord Mobile accounts. The new owner
can activate a MyFord Mobile account by
going to www.myfordmobile.com and
following the registration process. Convenience Features
To improve the charging experience, your
vehicle has the following convenience
features:
•
Value Charge:
Your vehicle schedules
its charging time for when the utility
rates are lowest. Contact your utility
company to see what rates are
available.
• Charge Now:
Your vehicle starts
charging immediately after you
connect the charging plug.
• GO Time: Setting GO Times allows you
to control charging schedules and
cabin conditioning settings so your
vehicle is ready to drive when you are.
By setting a GO Time, your vehicle can
use your value charge settings to
minimize your electricity costs but still
prioritize getting a full charge before
your GO Time. A calendar view allows
you to program two GO Times per day
for each day of the week.
Note: Remember, you must plug in your
vehicle for My GO Time to work.
• Cabin Conditioning:
Get the most
miles out of every charge by
conditioning your vehicle while it is
plugged in. Set the cabin temperature
when you set your GO Time in order to
use energy from your home (or
charging station) instead of from your
vehicle ’s battery.
