F.Recirculated air:Press to turn air recirculation in cabin on or off.
Recirculated air may reduce the amount of time to cool down the interior
of the vehicle and may help reduce undesired odors from reaching the
interior of the vehicle. Recirculated air engages automatically when you
select MAX A/C, or manually in any airflow mode except defrost.
Recirculated air may turn off automatically in all airflow modes except
MAX A/C to reduce fog potential.
G.Defrost:Distributes air through the windshield defroster vents and
demister vents. The system automatically provides outside air to reduce
window fogging Press again to turn off defrost mode.
H.Instrument panel:Press to distribute air through the instrument
panel vents. Press again to turn off panel mode.
I.Floor:Distributes air through the demister vents and front and rear
seat floor vents. Press again to turn off floor mode.
J.A/C:Press to turn air conditioning on or off. Use with recirculated air
to improve cooling performance and efficiency. Air conditioning also
engages automatically in some modes.
Temperature Control
You can set the temperature between 60°F (15.5°C) and 85°F (29.5°F)
in steps of 1°F (0.5°C). In positionLO,59°F (15°C), the system switches
to permanent cooling. In positionHI,86°F (30°C), the system switches
to permanent heating.
Single Zone Temperature Control
In this mode, the climate control system links the temperature settings
for both the driver’s side and passenger’s side. If you adjust the setting
using the rotary control on the driver’s side, the system adjusts the
temperature to the same setting on the passenger’s side.

To increase airflow to the outer instrument panel vents, close the vents
located in the middle of the instrument panel.
Improving Vehicle Drive Range
Your vehicle is equipped with a high voltage electric compressor and a
high voltage electric heater. You can increase your driving range by
minimizing the amount of energy expended to cool or heat the interior
during the drive.
•Pre-condition the interior temperature during vehicle charging
reduces the battery energy use on the interior comfort and improves
range. SeeConvenience charging with MyFord mobilein the
Charging Your High Voltage Batterychapter.Note:Your vehicle
may not always reach the set cabin temperature due to charging and
ambient temperature conditions.
•Hot and cold temperatures make your vehicle use more energy to
achieve and maintain a comfortable interior temperature. Park the
vehicle in the shade or in a parking structure when hot, and in a
garage when cold.
•Consider partially opening a window (or windows) to let fresh air
circulate, if weather conditions permit. You can achieve maximum
energy savings by switching the climate system off. Do this only if
conditions exist for safe vehicle operation.
•Reduce fan speed.
•Set the AUTO temperature a couple degrees cooler than you normally
do on cold days and a couple degrees higher on hot days. Use the
heated seats on cold days to increase interior comfort.
•Switch the air conditioning off in mild temperatures or low humidity
conditions.

CABIN AIR FILTER
Note:Make sure you have a cabin air filter installed at all times. This
prevents foreign objects from entering the system. Running the system
without a filter in place could result in degradation or damage to the
system.
Your cabin air filter is located under the instrument panel in the
passenger footwell area. The particulate filtration system reduces the
concentration of airborne particles such as dust, spores and pollen in
the air supplied to the interior of your vehicle. The particulate filtration
system gives you and your passengers the following benefits:
•It improves your driving comfort by reducing particle concentration.
•It improves the interior compartment cleanliness.
•It protects the climate control components from particle deposits.
Replace the filter at regular intervals. See theScheduled Maintenance
chapter.
For more information about your filter, see an authorized dealer.
REMOTE START CLIMATE OPERATION
The climate control system adjusts the cabin temperature during remote
start.
You cannot adjust the system during remote start operation. Turn the
ignition on to return the system to its previous settings. You can now
make adjustments. You will need to turn certain vehicle-dependent
features back on, such as:
•heated seats
•heated mirrors
•heated rear window.
You can adjust the settings using the information display controls.
See theInformation Displayschapter.

Brake-shift interlock
This vehicle is equipped with a brake-shift interlock feature that prevents
the gearshift lever from being moved from P (Park) when the ignition is in
the on position unless the brake pedal is pressed, your charge cord may be
plugged into the vehicle, or there may be a fault with the associated
electrical system. If this is the case, you must follow the instructions in
your instrument cluster display before your vehicle will start.
If you cannot move the gearshift lever out of P (Park) with ignition on
and the brake pedal pressed, it is also possible that a fuse has blown or
the vehicle’s brake lamps are not operating properly. Refer toFuses and
relaysin theRoadside Emergencieschapter.
If your charge cord is not connected and there is not a fault with the
associated electrical system, the fuse is not blown and the brake lamps
are working properly, the following procedure will allow you to move the
gearshift lever from P (Park):
1. Apply the parking brake, turn the ignition key to the off position and
remove the key.
2. Using a screwdriver (or similar
tool), carefully pry off and remove
the passenger side access cover.
Remove the fastener, then remove
the console side panel to expose the
inside of the shifter assembly.
3. Locate the brake shift interlock lever on the passenger side of the
