•
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.

When the oil change message appears in
the information display, it is time for an oil
change. Make sure you perform the oil
change within two weeks or 500 mi
(800 km) of the message appearing. Make
sure you reset the Intelligent Oil-Life
Monitor after each oil change. See
Oil
Change Indicator Reset (page 318).
If your information display resets
prematurely or becomes inoperative, you
should perform the oil change interval at
six months or
5,000 mi (8,000 km) from
your last oil change. Never exceed one year
or
10,000 mi (16,000 km) between oil
change intervals,
Your vehicle is very sophisticated and built
with multiple, complex, performance
systems. Every manufacturer develops
these systems using different
specifications and performance features.
That is why it is important to rely upon your
dealership to properly diagnose and repair
your vehicle.
We have recommended maintenance
intervals for various parts and component
systems based upon engineering testing.
We rely upon this testing to determine the
most appropriate mileage for replacement
of oils and fluids to protect your vehicle at
the lowest overall cost to you and
recommends against maintenance
schedules that deviate from the scheduled
maintenance information.
We strongly recommend the use of only
genuine Ford, Motorcraft or
Ford-authorized re-manufactured
replacement parts engineered for your
vehicle. Additives and Chemicals
This owner's manual and the our
Workshop Manual list the recommended
additives and chemicals for your vehicle.
We do not recommend using chemicals or
additives not approved by us as part of
your vehicle
’s normal maintenance. Please
consult your warranty information.
Oils, Fluids and Flushing
In many cases, fluid discoloration is a
normal operating characteristic and, by
itself, does not necessarily indicate a
concern or that the fluid needs to be
changed. However, a qualified expert, such
as the factory-trained technicians at your
dealership, should inspect discolored fluids
that also show signs of overheating or
foreign material contamination
immediately.
Make sure to change your vehicle ’s oils and
fluids at the specified intervals or in
conjunction with a repair. Flushing is a
viable way to change fluid for many vehicle
sub-systems during scheduled
maintenance. It is critical that systems are
flushed only with new fluid that is the same
as that required to fill and operate the
system or using a Ford-approved flushing
chemical.
Owner Checks and Services
Make sure you perform the following basic
maintenance checks and inspections every
month or at six-month intervals. Check Every Month
Engine oil level.
Function of all interior and exterior lights.
Tires (including spare) for wear and proper pressure.

Be sure to ask your dealership service
advisor or technician about the multi-point
vehicle inspection. It is a comprehensive
way to perform a thorough inspection of
your vehicle. Your checklist gives you
immediate feedback on the overall
condition of your vehicle.
NORMAL SCHEDULED
MAINTENANCE
Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor™
Your vehicle has an Intelligent Oil-Life
Monitor that determines when you should
change the engine oil based on how you
use your vehicle. By using several
important factors in its calculations, the
monitor helps reduce the cost of owning
your vehicle and reduces environmental
waste at the same time. This means you do not have to remember
to change the oil on a mileage-based
schedule. Your vehicle lets you know when
an oil change is due by displaying a
message in the information display.
The following table provides examples of
vehicle use and its impact on oil change
intervals. It is a guideline only. Actual oil
change intervals depend on several factors
and generally decrease with severity of
use.
