Charge (green light) — Indicates status of charging:
•No light means the cord is not connected to the vehicle.
•Blinking light means that the charging is in process.
•Solid light means that the vehicle is connected but not charging.
Fault (red triangle light) — Lights up in case of a detected failure.
No charging is possible:
•Blinking red triangle light – means that the 120 volt convenience cord
is trying to reset the failure and could restart the charging cycle.
•Solid red triangle light – means that the fault is permanent. The cord
needs to be unplugged and re-plugged to reset the fault. If the fault
persists, contact your authorized dealer.
Charge Port and Light Ring
The charge port is located between the front left side door and front left
wheel well. There is an indentation located on the charge port door.
Press with your thumb to open and to close the door.
Note:Do not force the charge port door open or closed. Forcing the
door open or closed will damage the charge port.
The light ring located around the charge port indicates the charge status
of your vehicles battery. The charge port light ring is divided into four
quadrants which display state of charge in 25 percent increments.
There is a cord acknowledgement feature that will be activated when a
charge cycle is initiated. The four light quadrants will each individually
flash clockwise starting with the top right light and ending with the top
left, two full times confirming a charging coupler has been detected.
You can use your keyfob to view the vehicles charge status at any
time by pressing the unlock button. The light ring will light up the
corresponding quadrant(s) so that the current state of charge can be
determined. If the charge is below 25 percent the light ring will not
illuminate. Don’t forget to press the lock button on your keyfob to
re-lock the vehicle.
The light ring will also display the current state of charge when opening

to be complete by the next GO Time.
When waiting to charge (not actively charging), the light ring will
indicate the present state of charge of the high voltage battery as
follows:
•When the top right quadrant is shut off the charge is between
0–25 percent.
•When the top right quadrant is solidly lit and the bottom right
quadrant is shut off the charge is between 25–50 percent.
•When both right side quadrants are solidly lit and the bottom left
quadrant is shut off the charge is between 50–75 percent.
•When three quadrants are solidly lit and the top left quadrant is shut
off the charge is between 75–100 percent.
•When the entire ring is solidly lit, the charge is 100 percent.
Note:When the vehicle is Waiting to Charge the light ring will shut off
one minute after displaying the present state of charge. When the vehicle
automatically begins charging the light ring will turn on and display how
far along the charge is per the section above.

Convenience Charging and MyFord® Mobile
The setting up of the charging convenience features is primarily done with

more complete information and to set up your MyFord Mobile account.
Your electric vehicle also has some convenience features to improve your
charging experience:
•Value Charge:The vehicle schedules charging at the lowest available
utility rates. Contact your utility company to see what rates are
available.
•Charge Now:Fully charge your vehicle at the quickest rate. The
vehicle starts charging immediately after you connect the charging
plug into the vehicle.
•My GO Time:Setting My GO times through the MyFord Mobile
application allows you to set charging schedules and cabin
preconditioning settings so your vehicle is ready to drive when you
are. By setting a My GO time the vehicles charge can be completed
before your next set drive time. A calendar view allows you to

Note:If your battery has a cover/shield, make sure it is reinstalled after
the battery has been cleaned or replaced.
For longer, trouble-free operation, keep the top of the battery clean and
dry. Also, make certain the battery cables are always tightly fastened to
the battery terminals.
If you see any corrosion on the battery or terminals, remove the cables
from the terminals and clean with a wire brush. You can neutralize the
acid with a solution of baking soda and water.
It is recommended that the negative battery cable terminal be
disconnected from the battery if you plan to store your vehicle for an
extended period of time. This will minimize the discharge of your battery
during storage.
To ensure proper operation of the battery management system, any
electrical devices that are added to the vehicle should not have their
ground connection made directly at the negative battery post. A connection
at the negative battery post can cause inaccurate measurements of the
battery condition and potential incorrect system operation.
Note:Electrical or electronic accessories or components added to
the vehicle by the dealer or the owner may adversely affect battery
performance and durability and may also affect the performance of other
electrical systems in the vehicle.
When a battery replacement is required, the battery should only be
replaced with a Ford recommended replacement battery that matches
the electrical requirements of the vehicle.
Note:The clock and the preset radio stations must be reset once the
battery is reconnected.
Note:Always dispose of automotive batteries in a responsible manner.
Follow your local authorized standards for disposal. Call your local
authorized recycling center to find out more about recycling automotive
batteries.
