2014 FORD C MAX HYBRID headlights

Empower
Empower adds an engine on/off threshold
to the power demand gauge from
Enlighten. The threshold is shown as a blue
double outline. The gauge is designed to
show you how close you are to the gasoline
engine on/off threshold and how much
power you are requesting based on how
far you press the accelerator pedal.
When power demand is below the
threshold the vehicle is operating on
battery power only with the engine off, EV
is displayed and the gauge fill is shown in
blue.
When power demand exceeds the
threshold both the engine and the high
voltage battery provide power and the
gauge fill is white.
When power demand surpasses the amber
indicator, this level of demand and
associated fuel economy are shown in
amber.
Note:
You can reset your average fuel
economy by pressing and holding the OK
button on the left hand steering wheel
controls.
MyView
You can choose what to display in this
view. Selecting Change MyView in the
options menu allows you to scroll through
two columns of content choices.
• Press the up or down arrow to view
content.
• Use the right and left arrows to move
between the left column content and
the middle column content.
• The right column is reserved for the
Battery Gauge and the Fuel Gauge.
Once you have your desired content
showing in each column then press
OK to
save. This becomes your new MyView
screen. Unique content available in MyView:
•
Accessory Power — Indicates electrical
power demands from your vehicle ’s
accessory systems. Accessories use
power but do not contribute to
propelling the vehicle. The gauge
separately displays power demand in
kilowatts (kW) for climate and other
accessories.
Climate includes the power being used by
high voltage climate control components
such as the electric A/C compressor and
the electric heater (Energi vehicles only)
Other includes all power being used by the
low voltage accessories (cabin fans,
headlights, heated seats, etc.).
• Coolant Temp – Indicates engine
coolant temperature. At normal
operating temperature, the level
indicator will be white and will be in the
normal range (between H and C). If the
engine coolant temperature exceeds
the normal range, the level indicator
will change to red to indicate that the
engine is overheating. Stop the vehicle
as soon as safely possible, turn off the
vehicle and let the engine cool.
The thermometer indicator next to the
gauge will illuminate in blue or white to
indicate the following (not available for
Energi vehicles):
• Blue thermometer - This indicates that
the hybrid system is not warm enough
to allow EV operation. The gasoline
engine will typically run continuously
when the indicator is blue.

C-MAX (CCG) Information Displays

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.

High voltage battery power represents your high-voltage battery. A circle
illuminates around the node when the high-voltage battery is receiving power
from regenerative braking, engine charging or external charging (when you plug
it in). The higher the power going into the high-voltage battery, the larger the
circle around this node.
G
Fuel
represents the fuel tank in the vehicle.
H
Fuel-to-engine flow
shows flow from the fuel tank to the engine when the
engine is on and using fuel (there are some cases where the engine is on, but
not using any fuel). When the engine is on, but not using fuel, the engine node
is active, but the fuel flow path is off. An example of this is when your foot is
off the accelerator pedal and the vehicle is traveling at a high speed.
I
Engine On due to
provides you with the reason(s) the gasoline engine is on.
When the gasoline engine is off, this display does not appear. Engine On due
to
reasons displayed by the system are in a chart following this list.
J
Motor-to-engine flow
shows the direction of power flow between the engine
and the electric motor. The direction indicates if the engine is providing power
to the high-voltage electrical system, or if the high-voltage electrical system is
providing power to control or start the engine.
K
Engine power
represents the gasoline engine. It illuminates only when the
gasoline engine is on. The higher the engine power is, the larger the circle around
this node.
L
Engine-to-wheels flow
shows the direction of the power flow between the
engine and the wheels.
M
Drive power
represents the power going to the wheels. The higher the wheel
power is, the larger the circle around this node. When the engine is off, drive
power is shown in blue. When the engine is on, drive power is shown in grey.
N
1 The battery-to-motor flow includes
battery power the vehicle is using for
acceleration. It does not include energy the
vehicle is using for accessories (such as air
conditioning, headlights and radio). This
screen displays accessories and climate
usage separately. 2
Accessories
indicates electrical power
demands from your vehicle ’s accessory
systems. Accessories use power but do not
contribute to making the vehicle move. The
power flow displays power usage from the
climate control system and other
accessories separately.
3 The climate control system may
determine A/C is necessary even when you
turn it off. In this case, you may see some
climate power when the A/C is off.
