HAZARD WARNING FLASHERS
Note:

the battery will lose charge. There may be
insufficient power to restart your vehicle. The hazard warning button is
located on the instrument panel.

warning function, and the front and rear
direction indicators will flash.

FUEL SHUTOFF WARNING
Failure to inspect and, if necessary,
repair fuel leaks after a collision may
increase the risk of fire and serious
injury. Ford Motor Company recommends
that the fuel system be inspected by an
authorized dealer after any collision. In the event of a moderate to severe collision,
this vehicle includes a fuel pump shutoff
feature that stops the flow of fuel to the
engine. Not every impact will cause a shutoff.
Should your vehicle shut off after a collision,
you may restart your vehicle. For vehicles
equipped with a key system:
1. Switch off the ignition.
2. Switch on the ignition.
3.
Repeat Steps 1 and 2 to re-enable the fuel
pump.
For vehicles equipped with a push button
start system:
1. Press the START/STOP button to
switch off the ignition.
2. Press the brake pedal and press the START/STOP
button to start the
vehicle.
3. Remove your foot from the brake pedal and press the
START/STOP button to
switch off the ignition.
4. You can either attempt to start the engine
by pressing the brake pedal and the
START/STOP
button, or switch on the
ignition only by pressing the
START/STOP
button without pressing
the brake pedal. Both ways re-enable the
fuel system.

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.
Battery Management System (If
Equipped)
The battery management system (BMS)
monitors battery conditions and takes
actions to extend battery life. If excessive
battery drain is detected, the system may
temporarily disable certain electrical features
to protect the battery. Those electrical
accessories affected include the rear defrost,
heated/cooled seats, climate control fan,
heated steering wheel, audio and navigation
system. A message may be shown in the
information displays to alert the driver that
battery protection actions are active. These
messages are only for notification that an
action is taking place, and not intended to
indicate an electrical problem or that the
battery requires replacement.
Electrical accessory installation
To ensure proper operation of the Battery
Management System, any electrical devices
that are added to your 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
added to your vehicle by the dealer or the
owner, may adversely affect battery
performance and durability, and may affect
the performance of other electrical systems
in your 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
your vehicle. After battery replacement, or in
some cases after charging the battery with
the external charger, the Battery
Management System requires eight hours of
vehicle sleep time (key off with doors closed)
to relearn the new battery state of charge.
Prior to relearning the state of charge, the
Battery Management System may disable
electrical features (to protect the battery)
earlier than normal. CHECKING THE WIPER BLADES
Run the tip of your fingers over the edge of
the blade to check for roughness.
Clean the wiper blades with washer fluid or
water applied with a soft sponge or cloth.
CHANGING THE WIPER BLADES
The wiper arms can be manually moved
when the ignition is off. This allows for ease
of blade replacement and cleaning under the
blades.
1. Pull the wiper blade and arm away from
the glass.

Privacy Information
When you connect a cellular phone to SYNC,
the system creates a profile within your
vehicle that links to that cellular phone. This
profile helps in offering you more cellular
features and operating more efficiently.
Among other things, this profile may contain
data about your cellular phone book, text
messages (read and unread), and call history,
including history of calls when your cell phone
was not connected to the system. In addition,
if you connect a media device, the system
creates and retains an index of supported media content. The system also records a
short development log of approximately 10
minutes of all recent system activity. The
system uses a log profile and other data to
improve the system and help diagnose any
problems that may occur.
The cellular profile, media device index, and
development log remain in your vehicle
unless you delete them and are generally
accessible only in your vehicle when the
cellular phone or media player is connected.
If you no longer plan to use the system or your
vehicle, we recommend you perform a Master
Reset to erase all stored information.
System data cannot be accessed without
special equipment and access to your
vehicle's SYNC module. Ford Motor Company
and Ford of Canada do not access the system
data for any purpose other than as described
absent consent, a court order, or where
required by law enforcement, other
government authorities, or other third parties
acting with lawful authority. Other parties
may seek to access the information
independently of Ford Motor Company and
Ford of Canada. For further privacy
information, see the sections on 911 Assist,
Vehicle Health Report, and Traffic, Directions
and Information.
