•
Drive Power: The engine is on due to
accelerator pedal pressure or speed
control activation. Reduce pressure on
the accelerator pedal or switch off the
speed control to return to full electric
mode.
• High Speed: The engine is on because
the vehicle speed exceeds the level for
full electric operation. Reduce the
speed to return to electric operation.
• Heater Setting: The engine is on
because of the heater setting. Reduce
or turn off the heater setting to return
to electric operation.
• Neutral Gear: The engine is on because
the vehicle is in Neutral (N). Shift out
of neutral gear to return to electric
operation.
• Engine Cold: The engine is on because
it is cold. The vehicle returns to electric
operation once the engine is sufficiently
warm.
• Battery Charging: The engine is on to
charge the high-voltage battery. The
vehicle returns to electric operation
once the battery is charged.
• Low Gear: The engine is on because
the vehicle is in low gear. Shift out of
low gear to return to electric operation.
• Normal Operation: The engine is on to
optimize vehicle operation. The vehicle
returns to electric operation when
possible.
• Low Use: The engine is on to maintain
engine oil quality. The vehicle returns
to electric operation when low engine
use mode is complete. See Plug-In
Hybrid Vehicle Operation (page 178). •
Engine Braking Active: The engine is on
to provide increased powertrain
braking. This can occur when you turn
on the grade assist feature, when
speed control is on or when driving with
your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Turning off grade assist or speed
control may allow the vehicle to return
to electric operation.
• Battery Temperature: The engine is on
due to high or low high-voltage battery
temperature. This is a normal operating
condition. The vehicle returns to
electric operation when possible.
• Drive Mode: The engine is on due to the
drive mode selection. Select an
appropriate drive mode for electric only
operation.
Charge Settings The Charge Settings information
for your plug-in hybrid vehicle is
available through the Home
screen or under Vehicle Settings. To
Improve your charging experience, your
vehicle has the following convenience
features.
Charge Times
Once you set up Charge Times for a
specific charging location, your vehicle
prioritizes charging based on your preferred
time settings. You can set two preferred
charging time windows for weekdays and
two for weekends. This feature allows you
to take advantage of electric utility rate
plans that offer lower pricing during certain
times of day. Contact your utility company
to see what plans are available.
Note: You can also set up and use these
features using the FordPass app.

per day for each day of the week.
