Children must always be properly
restrained. Accident statistics suggest that
children are safer when properly restrained
in the rear seating positions than in the
front seating position. Failure to follow
these instructions may increase the risk of
injury in a crash.
KNEE AIRBAG A driver’s and passenger’s knee airbag is
located under or within the instrument
panel. During a crash, the restraints control
module may activate the driver’s and
passenger’s knee airbag (individually or
both) based on crash severity and
respective occupant conditions. Under
certain crash and occupant conditions, the
driver’s and passenger’s knee airbag may
deploy (individually or both) but the
corresponding front airbag may not
activate. As with front and side airbags, it
is important to be properly seated and
restrained to reduce the risk of death or
serious injury.
Make sure the knee airbags are
operating properly. See Crash
Sensors and Airbag Indicator
(page 42). FRONT PASSENGER SENSING
SYSTEM WARNINGS
Even with Advanced Restraints
Systems, children 12 and under
should be properly restrained in a
rear seating position. Failure to follow this
could seriously increase the risk of injury or
death.
Sitting improperly out of position or
with the seat back reclined too far
can take off weight from the seat
cushion and affect the decision of the front
passenger sensing system, resulting in
serious injury or death in a crash.
To reduce the risk of possible serious
injury: Do not stow objects in seat
back map pocket or hang objects off
seat back if a child is in the front passenger
seat. Do not place objects underneath the
front passenger seat or between the seat
and the center console. Check the
passenger airbag off or pass airbag off
indicator lamp for proper airbag status.
Failure to follow these instructions may
interfere with the front passenger seat
sensing system.
Any alteration or modification to the
front passenger seat may affect the
performance of the front passenger
sensing system.
This system works with sensors that are
part of the front passenger’s seat and
safety belt to detect the presence of a
properly-seated occupant and determine
if the front passenger’s frontal airbag
should be enabled (may inflate) or not.
37Supplementary Restraints System

E157152
The front passenger sensing system uses
a pass airbag off indicator which will
illuminate and stay lit to remind you that
the front passenger frontal airbag is
disabled.
The indicator lamp is located at the top
center of the instrument panel.
Note: When the ignition is first tuned on,
the indicator lamp will illuminate for a short
period of time to confirm it is functional.
The front passenger sensing system is
designed to disable (will not inflate) the
front passenger's frontal airbag when a
rear facing infant seat, a forward-facing
child restraint, or a booster seat is
detected. Even with this technology,
parents are STRONGLY encouraged to
always properly restrain children in the rear
seat. The sensor also turns off the
passenger front airbag and seat-mounted
side airbag when the passenger seat is
empty. • When the front passenger sensing
system disables (will not inflate) the
front passenger frontal airbag, the
indicator lamp will illuminate and stay
lit to remind you that the front
passenger frontal airbag is disabled.
• If the child restraint has been installed
and the indicator lamp is not lit, then
turn the vehicle off, remove the child
restraint from the vehicle and reinstall
the restraint following the child
restraint manufacturer's instructions.
The front passenger sensing system is
designed to enable (may inflate) the front
passenger's frontal airbag anytime the
system senses that a person of adult size
is sitting properly in the front passenger
seat.
• When the front passenger sensing
system enables the front passenger
frontal airbag (may inflate), the
indicator lamp will be unlit and stay
unlit.
If a person of adult size is sitting in the front
passenger’s seat, but the airbag off
indicator lamp is lit, it is possible that the
person isn’t sitting properly in the seat. If
this happens:
• Turn the vehicle off and ask the person
to place the seat back in the full upright
position.
• Have the person sit upright in the seat,
centered on the seat cushion, with the
person’s legs comfortably extended.
• Restart the vehicle and have the person
remain in this position for about two
minutes. This will allow the system to
detect that person and enable the
passenger’s frontal airbag.
• If the indicator lamp remains lit even
after this, the person should be advised
to ride in the rear seat.

depending on the setting. Extending the Vehicle Run Time
Repeat Steps 1 and 2 with the vehicle still
running to extend the run time for another
remote start duration. If you programmed
the duration to last 10 minutes, the second
10 minutes will begin after what is left of
the first activation time. For example, if the
vehicle had been running from the first
remote start for five minutes, the vehicle
will continue to run now for a total of 15
minutes. You can extend the remote start
up to a maximum of 35 minutes.
Wait at least five seconds before remote
starting after a vehicle shutdown.
Turning the Vehicle Off After Remote
Starting E138625
Press the button once. The
parking lamps will turn off.
You may have to be closer to the
vehicle than when starting due to ground
reflection and the added noise of the
running vehicle.
You can disable or enable the remote start
system through the information display.
See General Information (page 86).
REPLACING A LOST KEY OR
REMOTE CONTROL Replacement keys or remote controls can
be purchased from an authorized dealer.

HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLE Plug-in Power Mode and Hybrid
Mode (Fusion Energi Only) You must plug in your Fusion Energi vehicle
regularly for optimal use of the high
voltage battery's extended range
capability. When you charge your vehicle,
you add electrical energy that is then used
to propel the vehicle in plug-in power
mode. You can view your estimated
electric range in this mode from the
enhanced battery gauge on the instrument
panel display. The system maximizes the
use of electric-only operation in plug-in
power mode. System conditions may
require engine operation; however, the
system uses plug-in power whenever
possible.
When your plug-in power has been
depleted, the powertrain system will
automatically switch to hybrid mode. Your
battery gauge will show an electric range
of zero before transitioning to a simple
battery graphic upon entering hybrid mode.
Hybrid mode uses both the gasoline engine
and electric motor to power your vehicle
and maximize fuel economy as with Fusion
Hybrid.
EV Modes (Fusion Energi Only) E144814
Your vehicle contains selectable
EV modes through the EV button
on the center console.
These modes are available when the
vehicle can run under high voltage battery
power. With the vehicle in driving mode,
you can change EV modes with each press
of the EV button. The current mode
displays in the left hand instrument cluster
screen. Auto EV E155152
This mode provides an
automatic use of high voltage
battery power during the drive,
staying in electric mode when possible and
running the engine when needed. This
mode will be the only one available if the
plug-in power has been depleted.
EV Now E144814
This mode provides an electric
only driving experience using
plug-in power. The left-hand
information display will change to an
Energy Use screen that supplies EV specific
tools and functions. The vehicle may
accelerate more slowly and the top speed
may be lower than in Auto mode. Your
engine may be enabled at any time by
using one of the following methods:
1. Press the OK button on the left 5–way
steering wheel control while viewing
the EV screen. The vehicle will enable
the engine as needed, and will
automatically return to EV Now after
eight seconds or when the engine is no
longer needed.
2. Press the accelerator pedal fully. A pop
up message stating Press OK to
Enable Engine will appear. Press OK
on the left steering wheel button to
activate as needed. The message will
disappear if you release the accelerator
pedal.
3. Press the EV button. This will change
the mode to EV Later and permit
engine operation.
The vehicle may automatically enter
Engine Enabled mode if system conditions
require it. A message Engine Enabled for
System Performance will display if this
occurs. This is normal function, and your
vehicle will return to EV Now when
possible.
