Note:Event data recorder data is recordedby your vehicle only if a non-trivial crashsituation occurs; no data is recorded by theevent data recorder under normal drivingconditions and no personal data orinformation (e.g., name, gender, age, andcrash location) is recorded (see limitationsregarding 911 Assist and Traffic, directionsand Information privacy below). However,parties, such as law enforcement, couldcombine the event data recorder data withthe type of personally identifying dataroutinely acquired during a crashinvestigation.
To read data recorded by an event datarecorder, special equipment is required,and access to the vehicle or the event datarecorder is needed. In addition to thevehicle manufacturer, other parties, suchas law enforcement, that have such specialequipment, can read the information if theyhave access to the vehicle or the event datarecorder. Ford Motor Company and Fordof Canada do not access event datarecorder information without obtainingconsent, unless pursuant to court order or
where required by law enforcement, othergovernment authorities or other thirdparties acting with lawful authority. Otherparties may seek to access the informationindependently of Ford Motor Company andFord of Canada.
Note:Including to the extent that any lawpertaining to Event Data Recorders appliesto SYNC or its features, please note thefollowing: Once 911 Assist (if equipped) isenabled (set ON), 911 Assist may, throughany paired and connected cell phone,disclose to emergency services that thevehicle has been in a crash involving thedeployment of an airbag or, in certainvehicles, the activation of the fuel pumpshut-off. Certain versions or updates to 911Assist may also be capable of being usedto electronically or verbally provide to 911operators the vehicle location (such aslatitude and longitude), and/or other detailsabout the vehicle or crash or personalinformation about the occupants to assist911 operators to provide the mostappropriate emergency services. If you donot want to disclose this information, donot activate the 911 Assist feature. SeeSYNC™ 3 (page 372).

Odometer
Located in the bottom of the display. Itregisters the accumulated distance yourvehicle has traveled.
Battery Gauge:
An optional small battery gauge is providedfor Hybrid vehicles. This can be enabled inthe Settings menu under Battery Display.See General Information (page 112). The filllevel, or State of Charge, indicates theamount of energy stored in the high voltagebattery as a percent of total energy capacity.The level increases or decreases as thebattery charges and discharges duringnormal operation.
Regen Display
A circular arrow symbol displays whenenergy is being recaptured through theregenerative braking system. Regen Displaycan be disabled in the Settings menu. SeeGeneral Information (page 112).
Fuel Gauge
Note:The fuel gauge may vary slightly whenyour vehicle is moving or on a gradient.
Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge willindicate approximately how much fuel is leftin the fuel tank. The arrow adjacent to thefuel pump symbol indicates on which side ofyour vehicle the fuel filler door is located.
The needle should move toward F when yourefuel your vehicle. If the needle points to Eafter adding fuel, this indicates your vehicleneeds service soon.
After refueling some variability in needleposition is normal:
•It may take a short time for the needle toreach full after leaving the gas station.This is normal and depends upon theslope of pavement at the gas station.
•The fuel amount dispensed into the tankis a little less or more than the gaugeindicated. This is normal and dependsupon the slope of pavement at the gasstation.
•If the gas station nozzle shuts off beforethe tank is full, try a different gas pumpnozzle.
•There is a small reserve left in the tankwhen the fuel gauge reaches empty.

Instrument Cluster

Your vehicle is designed to operate onregular unleaded gasoline with a minimumpump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87.
Some fuel stations, particularly those in highaltitude areas, offer fuels posted as regularunleaded gasoline with an octane ratingbelow 87. We do not recommend these fuels.
For best overall vehicle and engineperformance, premium fuel with an octanerating of 91 or higher is recommended. Theperformance gained by using premium fuelis most noticeable in hot weather.
Do not use any fuel other than thoserecommended because they could lead toengine damage that will not be covered bythe vehicle Warranty.
Note:Use of any fuel other than thoserecommended can impair the emissioncontrol system and cause a loss of vehicleperformance.
Do not use:
•Diesel fuel.
•Fuels containing kerosene or paraffin.
•Fuel containing more than 15% ethanolor E85 fuel.
•Fuels containing methanol.
•Fuels containing metallic-based additives,including manganese-based compounds.
•Fuels containing the octane boosteradditive, methylcyclopentadienylmanganese tricarbonyl (MMT).
•Leaded fuel (using leaded fuel isprohibited by law).
The use of fuels with metallic compoundssuch as methylcyclopentadienyl manganesetricarbonyl (commonly known as MMT), whichis a manganese-based fuel additive, willimpair engine performance and affect theemission control system.
Do not be concerned if the enginesometimes knocks lightly. However, if theengine knocks heavily while using fuel withthe recommended octane rating, contact anauthorized dealer to prevent any enginedamage.
Fuel Freshness Mode (If Equipped)
This helps keep the fuel system functionaland the fuel fresh.
If you mainly use your vehicle in electricpower mode without refueling, the gasolinein the fuel tank may become stale due toaging. Stale gasoline can damage theengine and fuel system.
Your vehicle automatically switches to fuelfreshness mode if you do not refuel yourvehicle with fresh fuel within an 18-monthperiod. Fuel freshness mode protects yourvehicle from potential engine and fuel systemdamage caused by using stale fuel.
Note:If you do not add new fuel during an18-month period, fuel freshness mode willuse fuel until approximately 1.2 gal (4.5 L) offuel remains in the fuel tank.
During fuel freshness mode:
•The information display will indicate fuelfreshness mode is active.
•The vehicle will only run in hybrid mode.EV Now mode will not be available.
•Most of the plug-in power will be storeduntil fuel freshness mode is completed.
Note:EV Now mode resumes when less than1.2 gal (4.5 L) of fuel remains in the fuel tank.

Fuel and Refueling

Note:When the fuel level is less thanone-quarter full, refueling your vehicle willend fuel freshness mode.
Note:We recommend you use a fuelstabilizer if you use less than a full tank offuel during an 18-month period.
FUEL FILLER FUNNEL LOCATION
The fuel filler funnel is under the luggagecompartment floor covering.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
Avoid running out of fuel because thissituation may have an adverse effect onvehicle components.
If you have run out of fuel:
•To start the vehicle with a keylessignition, just start the engine. Crank timewill be longer than usual.
•Normally, adding 1 gal (3.8 L) of fuel isenough to restart the vehicle. If thevehicle is out of fuel and on a steepgrade, more than 1 gal (3.8 L) may berequired.
•The service engine soon indicator maycome on.
Refilling With a Portable Fuel Container
WARNINGS
Flow of fuel through a fuel pump nozzlecan produce static electricity. This cancause a fire if you are filling an ungroundedfuel container.
Do not insert the nozzle of a fuelcontainer or an aftermarket funnel intothe fuel filler neck. This may damage the fuelsystem filler neck or its seal and cause fuelto run onto the ground.
WARNINGS
Do not try to pry open or push openthe capless fuel system with foreignobjects. This could damage the fuel systemand its seal and cause injury to you or others.
Note:Do not use aftermarket funnels; theywill not work with the capless fuel systemand can damage it. The included speciallydesigned funnel works safely with yourvehicle.
When filling the vehicle’s fuel tank from aportable fuel container, use the funnelincluded with the vehicle.
