2021 FORD POLICE INTERCEPTOR fuel

Note:
The low fuel reminder can appear at
different fuel gauge positions depending on
fuel economy conditions. This variation is
normal.
Engine Coolant Temperature
Gauge
Indicates engine coolant temperature. At
normal operating temperature, the level
indicator will be in the normal range. If the
engine coolant temperature exceeds the
normal range, stop your vehicle as soon as
safely possible, switch off the engine and
let the engine cool. WARNING: Do not remove the
coolant reservoir cap when the engine is
on or the cooling system is hot. Wait 10
minutes for the cooling system to cool
down. Cover the coolant reservoir cap
with a thick cloth to prevent the
possibility of scalding and slowly remove
the cap. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in personal injury.
WARNING LAMPS AND
INDICATORS
The following warning lamps and
indicators alert you to a vehicle condition
that may become serious. Some lamps
illuminate when you start your vehicle to
make sure they work. If any lamps remain
on after starting your vehicle, refer to the
respective system warning lamp for further
information.
Note: Some warning indicators appear in
the information display and function the
same as a warning lamp, but do not display
when you start your vehicle. Anti-Lock Braking System If it illuminates when you are
driving, this indicates a system
error. You continue to have the
normal braking (without ABS) unless the
brake system warning lamp also
illuminates. Have the system checked by
an authorized dealer.
Battery If it illuminates while driving, it
indicates a system error. Switch
off all unnecessary electrical
equipment and have the system checked
by an authorized dealer immediately.
Blind Spot Monitor
(If Equipped) Illuminates when you switch this
feature off or in conjunction with
a message. See
Blind Spot
Information System (page 167).
Brake System Warning Lamp WARNING:
Driving your vehicle
with the warning lamp on is dangerous.
A significant decrease in braking
performance may occur. It may take you
longer to stop your vehicle. Have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Driving extended distances with the
parking brake engaged can cause brake
failure and the risk of personal injury.
Note: Indicators vary depending on region.
This lamp is a dual function lamp and
illuminates when:
• You apply the parking brake with the
ignition on.
• Your vehicle has a brake fault or low
brake fluid level, regardless of parking
brake position.

If there is not an occupant in the front
passenger seat, the climate control system
may default to single zone to improve fuel
economy, if you were previously in dual
zone operation. When this occurs, dual
zone turns off and the passenger set point
changes to match the driver set point.
Adjust the passenger set point normally to
use dual zone operation without a
passenger present. The system remains in
dual zone operation until you switch the
vehicle off.
You can disable or re-enable the Smart

HYBRID VEHICLE OPERATION
This hybrid vehicle combines electric and
gasoline propulsion to provide
breakthrough performance and improved
efficiency. Familiarizing yourself with these
unique characteristics provides an optimal
driving experience from your vehicle.
Starting
When you start your vehicle, a
green READY indicator light
appears in the instrument cluster
letting you know that your vehicle is ready
for driving.
The engine may not start because your
vehicle has a silent key start feature. This
fuel saving feature allows your vehicle to
be ready to drive without requiring the gas
engine to be running. The indicator remains
on when your vehicle is on, whether the
engine is running or not, to indicate your
vehicle is capable of movement using the
electric motor, gas engine or both.
Typically, the engine does not start unless
your vehicle is cold, or you request a
climate control change, or press the
accelerator pedal.
Driving
The gas engine starts and stops to provide
power when needed and to save fuel when
not needed. When coasting at low speeds,
coming to a stop, or standing, the gas
engine normally shuts down and your
vehicle operates in electric-only mode.
Conditions that could cause the engine to
start up or remain running include:
• Considerably accelerating your vehicle.
• Climbing a hill.
• Charge level of the high voltage battery
is low.
• High or low outside temperatures
causing the system to heat or cool. •
Engine not warm enough to provide a
desirable temperature for the
passenger.
• Towing a trailer.
• Selectable drive modes. Certain
selectable drive modes could cause
the engine to run. See What Is Drive
Mode Control (page 178).
Stopping
The gas engine could shut off to conserve
fuel as you come to a stop. You do not
have to restart your vehicle. Simply step
on the accelerator when you are ready to
drive.
Transmission Operation
The engine and electric motor together
propel the vehicle through the automatic
transmission. This is normal hybrid
operating and helps deliver fuel efficiency
and performance.
Battery
Your hybrid vehicle has a high voltage
battery. A cool battery maintains battery
life and provides the best possible
performance. The air conditioning system
cools the high voltage battery. When the
air conditioning system is on and cooling
the battery, there could be a slight increase
in air temperature coming from the climate
control vents.
During extended downhill driving, the
engine continues to run instead of shutting
off. During this engine braking, the engine
stays on, but it is not using any fuel. You
could also hear a slight whine or whistle
when operating your vehicle. This is the
normal operation of the electric motor in
the hybrid system.

(HEV)E293827

Braking
Your hybrid vehicle has standard hydraulic
braking and regenerative braking. The
transmission performs regenerative
braking. It captures brake energy and
stores it in the high voltage battery. The
transmission changes gears while
decelerating and captures the maximum
energy back into the high voltage battery.
Driving to Optimize Fuel Economy
Your fuel economy should improve
throughout the hybrid vehicle break-in
period. As with any vehicle, your driving
habits and accessory usage can
significantly impact your fuel economy. For
best results, keep these tips in mind:
•
Properly inflate the recommended size
tires.
• Aggressive driving increases the
amount of energy your vehicle requires
to move. 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 the
regenerative braking system captures.
Additional tips:
• Do not carry extra loads.
• Be mindful of adding external
accessories that could increase
aerodynamic drag.
• Observe posted speed limits.
• Perform all scheduled maintenance.
• There is no need to wait for the engine
to warm up. Your vehicle is
immediately ready to drive after
starting.
Note: Having the engine running is not
always an indication of inefficiency. In some
cases, it is actually more efficient than
driving in electric mode.
