The light ring located around the charge
port indicates the charge status of your
vehicle's high-voltage battery. The charge
port light ring is divided into four quadrants
which display state of charge in 25 percent
increments.
There is a cord acknowledgment 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 the doors.
Charging
Note: The vehicle must be in P (Park) to
charge.
To charge your high-voltage battery:
1. Put the vehicle in P (Park) and power
down the vehicle.
2. With your thumb, press the indentation
located on the charge port door and
the door will rotate open.
3. Plug the charging coupler into the
vehicles charge port receptacle and
make sure the button clicks confirming
that it is completely engaged. E144780
4. Verify that the cord acknowledgment
feature activates. This indicates the
beginning of a normal charge cycle.
5. If using a 240–volt charging station,
follow the instructions on the charge
station to begin the charging process.
When charging, the light ring will display
how far along the charge is:
• When the top right quadrant is pulsing
the charge is between 0-25 percent.
• When the top right quadrant is solidly
lit and the bottom right quadrant is
pulsing the charge is between 25-50
percent.
• When both right side quadrants are
solidly lit and the bottom left quadrant
is pulsing the charge is between 50-75
percent.
• When three quadrants are solidly lit
and the top left quadrant is pulsing the
charge is between 75-100 percent.
• When the entire ring is solidly lit, the
charge is complete.
Note: The light ring will shut off one minute
after reaching a full charge.
Waiting to Charge
Note: See Charge Settings in the MyFord
Touch section. See MyFord Touch™ (page
356).
163High Voltage Battery
When Value Charge has been selected
charging may not begin upon plugging in.
The vehicle may delay charging to take
advantage of off-peak electricity rates. The
vehicle will optimize the charge schedule
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.
Note: If a vehicle charging system fault is
detected at any point in a charge cycle the
entire light ring will flash continuously for
one minute and then shut off. If this
happens unplug, and then re-plug the
charging coupler into the charge port
receptacle. If the problem persists contact
your authorized dealer.
The light ring illumination conditions can
be modified. See Charge Port Light Ring
Settings in the MyFord Touch section. See
MyFord Touch™ (page 356). Disconnecting the Charging Coupler
Note: Do not pull the wall plug from the
wall while the vehicle is charging. Doing so
may damage the outlet and the cord.
1. Press the button on the charging
coupler.
2. While holding the button, remove the
charging coupler from the vehicle’s
charge port receptacle. E144781
3. Close the charge port door by pressing
the indentation on the charge port
door. Continue pressing the indentation
while the door rotates counter
clockwise and closes.
HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY CUT-
OFF SWITCH The high-voltage shut off operation shuts
off power from the high-voltage battery
after a collision, or if your vehicle receives
a substantial physical jolt.
To reactivate the vehicle after either event
perform the following steps:
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Turn the ignition on.
3. If the vehicle is not powered after this
sequence, repeat steps 1 and 2.
For vehicles equipped with a push button
start system:
164High Voltage Battery
Because your vehicle’s engine is
electronically-controlled by a computer,
some engine control settings are
maintained by power from the low-voltage
battery. Some engine computer settings,
like the idle trim and fuel trim strategy,
optimize the driveability and performance
of the engine. The clock and radio station
presets are also maintained in memory by
power from the low-voltage battery. These
settings are erased when a technician
disconnects and connects the low-voltage
battery.
Complete the following procedure in order
to restore the settings:
1. With the vehicle at a complete stop,
set the parking brake.
2. Shift the transmission into P (Park)
3. Turn off all accessories.
4. Step on the brake pedal and start the
vehicle.
5. Run the engine until it reaches normal
operating temperature. While the
engine is warming up, complete the
following: Reset the clock. See Audio
System (page 299). Reset the power
windows bounce-back feature. See
Windows and Mirrors (page 74).
Reset the radio station presets. See
Audio System (page 299).
6. Allow the engine to idle for at least one
minute. If the engine turns off, step on
the accelerator to start the engine.
7. While the engine is running, step on the
brake pedal and shift the transmission
to N.
8. Allow the engine to run for at least one
minute by pressing on the accelerator
pedal.
9. Drive the vehicle at least 10 miles (16
kilometers) to completely relearn the
idle and fuel trim strategy. Note: If you do not allow the engine to
relearn the idle and fuel trim strategy, the
idle quality of your vehicle may be adversely
affected until the engine computer
eventually relearns the idle trim and fuel
trim strategy.
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.
Note: 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.

DIGITAL AUDIO Note: HD Radio broadcasts are not
available in all markets.
HD Radio technology is the digital
evolution of analog AM/FM radio. Your
system has a special receiver that allows
it to receive digital broadcasts (where
available) in addition to the analog
broadcasts, it already receives. Digital
broadcasts provide a better sound quality than analog broadcasts with free,
crystal-clear audio and no static or
distortion. For more information, and a
guide to available stations and
programming, please visit
www.hdradio.com.
When HD Radio is on and you tune to a
station broadcasting HD Radio technology,
you may notice the HD Radio logo on your
screen. When this logo is available, you
may also see Title and Artist fields
on-screen.
