To preserve your warranty,the following conditions should be
observed (See Owner’s Manual for further detail):
• Refer to the Owner’s Manual for the proper ways your vehicle’s battery must be maintained in the event the vehicle is not
driven or is stored for an extended period.
• Follow all instructions for use and charging of the high voltage battery assembly
• Use the vehicle, charging equipment, and high voltage battery assembly as intended and as described in the Owner Manual,
and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Have all high voltage battery assembly service and repairs performed by properly qualified and equipped personnel at an
EV Certified Ford dealership.
PROPER MAINTENANCE PRESERVES YOUR WARRANTY
The high voltage battery assembly in the vehicle is designed to
operate within a sealed system. Removing the high voltage
battery assembly from the vehicle, or opening the high voltage
battery assembly, creates a risk of damage to the high voltage
battery assembly, as well as a risk of personal injury, including
electrocution. EV Certified Ford dealerships are specially trained
and equipped to repair the high voltage battery assembly and
high voltage systems on the vehicle, and are the only repair
facilities authorized to repair the high voltage battery assembly.
In order to maintain optimal battery life and functionality of your
vehicle, it is imperative that all high voltage battery software
updates are installed. You are responsible for ensuring all software
updates are installed within 30 days of software availability. You
can most easily accomplish this by keeping Automatic Updates set
to "ON". If you are unable or choose not to use your vehicle’s
connectivity features to update software, your Ford Dealer can
determine if software updates are available for your vehicle and
perform these updates. Software updates will be installed at no
cost to you during the warranty period. Damage resulting from
failure to install battery system updates will not be covered under
your New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
