• Fuel History: This view from left to right starts with the instantaneous fuel economy\
gauge and adds historical fuel economy data. The data is represented as \
an average
for time intervals of either 1, 2 or 6 minutes, with the left most inter\
val being the most
recent. Total time for the 5 intervals is shown at the bottom of the view. Intervals
shown in grey color are from the previous drive.
Note: You can reset your average fuel economy by pressing and holding the OK button
on the left hand steering wheel controls.
• Coach:
This view provides a comparison of your recent Acceleration, Braking an\
d
Cruising behavior to what is recommended for most efficient use of energ\
y under
present conditions. The horizontal bars fill from left to right with bes\
t behavior (and
Blue color) shown as at least half full. When the bars are less than ha\
lf full, the color
is Amber, suggesting that a change in behavior is needed to achieve better energ\
y
efficiency.
Note: Fuel economy is not always a measure of appropriate driving behavior. For
example, when driving uphill and maintaining an appropriate speed, your instant\
fuel
economy may not be good (losing leaves) but the Coach may show a blue \
bar for
Acceleration or Cruising.
Info In this mode, you can view
different vehicle system
information and perform a
system check.

•
Press the heated seat symbol to cycle
through the various heat settings and
off. Warmer settings are indicated by
more indicator lights.
• Press again to deactivate.
The heated seat module resets at every
ignition run cycle. While the ignition is on,
press the high or low heated seat switch
to enable heating mode. When activated,
they will turn off automatically when you
turn the engine off.
VENTILATED SEATS (IF EQUIPPED)
The ventilated seats will only function
when the engine is running. To operate the ventilated seats:
Press the ventilated seat symbol to cycle
through the various cooling settings and
off. Cooler settings are indicated by more
indicator lights.
If the engine falls below 350 RPM while
the ventilated seats are on, the feature will
turn itself off and you will need to
reactivate it. Heated and ventilated seat air filter
replacement (if equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with lifetime air
filters that are integrated with the seats.
Regular maintenance or replacement is
not needed.
REAR SEAT ARMREST
Fold the armrest down to use the armrest
and cupholder. To open the storage lid,
pull up on the latch located between the
cupholders.
Armrest pass-through
Note:
Do not exceed 80 pounds (36
kilograms) of weight on the pass-through
door.

Fast Restart
The fast restart feature allows you to
restart the engine within 20 seconds of
switching it off, even if a valid key is not
present.
Within 20 seconds of switching the engine
off, press the brake pedal and press the
button. After 20 seconds have expired,
you can no longer restart the vehicle
without the key present inside your
vehicle.
Once the vehicle has started, it remains
running until you press the button, even if
the system does not detect a valid key. If
you open and close a door while the
vehicle is running, the system searches
for a valid key. You cannot restart the
engine if the system does not detect a
valid key within 20 seconds.
Automatic Shutdown
This feature automatically shuts down the
vehicle if it has been idling for an extended
period. The ignition also turns off in order
to save battery power. Before the vehicle
shuts down, a message appears in the
information display showing a timer
counting down from 30 seconds. If you do
not intervene within 30 seconds, the
vehicle shuts down. Another message
appears in the information display to
inform you that the vehicle has shut down
in order to save fuel. Start your vehicle as
you normally do.
Automatic Shutdown Override
Note:
You cannot permanently switch off
the automatic shutdown feature. When
you switch it off temporarily, it turns on at
the next ignition cycle. You can stop the shutdown, or reset the
timer, at any point before the 30-second
countdown has expired by doing any of
the following:
•
You can reset the timer by interacting
with your vehicle (such as pressing the
brake pedal or accelerator pedal).
• You can temporarily switch off the
shutdown feature any time the ignition
is on (for the current ignition cycle
only). Use the information display to
do so. See Information Displays
(page 97).
• During the countdown before
shutdown, you are prompted to press
OK or RESET (depending on your type
of information display) to temporarily
switch the feature off (for the current
ignition cycle only).
Switching Off the Vehicle When It Is
Stationary
1. Put the transmission in position
P.
2. Press the button once.
3. Apply the parking brake.
Note: This switches off the ignition, all
electrical circuits, warning lamps and
indicators.
Note: If the engine is idling for 30 minutes,
the ignition and engine automatically shut
down.

MKZ (CC9) Starting and Stopping the Engine

•
Keep the tires properly inflated and
only use the recommended size.
• Aggressive driving increases the
amount of energy required to move
your vehicle. In general, you can
achieve better fuel economy with mild
to moderate acceleration and
deceleration. Moderate braking is
particularly important since it allows
you to maximize the energy captured
by the regenerative braking system.
Additional Tips:
• Do not carry extra loads.
• Be mindful of adding external
accessories that may increase
aerodynamic drag.
• Observe posted speed limits.
• Perform all scheduled maintenance.
• There is no need to wait for your
engine to warm up. The vehicle is
ready to drive immediately after
starting. EV+ Mode
Your vehicle will recognize your frequent
destinations and allow for more EV driving
as you approach them. For example, when
nearing your home it should be easier to
stay in electric mode. The EV indicator will
display EV+ when this mode is active. You
should see this about 1/8 mile (200 meters)
from a frequent destination. See
Information Displays (page 97).
Note: Frequent destinations are learned
by your vehicle after two to four weeks of
use. You can clear these destinations with
a Driving History reset through the
Settings menu.
Note: The EV+ feature can be turned on
or off through the Driver Assist section of
the Settings menu.

4.
Insert the fuel fill nozzle, or the fuel fill
funnel provided with the vehicle,
several times to allow the inlet to close
properly. This will dislodge any debris
preventing the inlet from sealing.
If this action corrects the problem, the
message may not reset immediately. It
may take several driving cycles for the
message to turn off. A driving cycle
consists of an engine start-up (after four
or more hours with the engine off ) followed
by city or highway driving. Continuing to
drive with the message on may cause the
service engine soon lamp to turn on as
well.
FUEL CONSUMPTION
Note: The amount of usable fuel in the
empty reserve varies and should not be
relied upon to increase driving range.
When refueling your vehicle after the fuel
gauge indicates empty, you might not be
able to refuel the full amount of the
advertised capacity of the fuel tank due
to the empty reserve still present in the
tank.
Empty reserve is the amount of fuel
remaining in the tank after the fuel gauge
indicates empty. Do not rely on this fuel
for driving. The usable capacity of the fuel
tank is the amount of fuel that can be put
into the tank after the gauge indicates
empty. The advertised capacity is the total
fuel tank size – it is the combined usable
capacity plus the empty reserve.
Filling the Tank
For consistent results when filling the fuel
tank: •
Turn the ignition off before fueling; an
inaccurate reading results if the engine
is left running.
• Use the same fill rate
(low-medium-high) each time the tank
is filled.
• Allow no more than two automatic
click-offs when filling.
Results are most accurate when the filling
method is consistent.
Calculating Fuel Economy
Do not measure fuel economy during the
first 1000 miles (1600 kilometers) of driving
(this is your engine ’s break-in period); a
more accurate measurement is obtained
after 2000 miles - 3000 miles (3200
kilometers - 4800 kilometers). Also, fuel
expense, frequency of fill ups or fuel
gauge readings are not accurate ways to
measure fuel economy.
1. Fill the fuel tank completely and record
the initial odometer reading.
2. Each time you fill the tank, record the amount of fuel added.
3. After at least three to five tank fill ups,
fill the fuel tank and record the current
odometer reading.
4. Subtract your initial odometer reading
from the current odometer reading.
5. Calculate fuel economy by dividing miles traveled by gallons used (For
Metric: Multiply liters used by 100, then
divide by kilometers traveled).
