•Hybrid driving: The vehicle is runningand in drive (D) or neutral (N). Theengine and the high voltage batteryprovide power to the wheels.
•Regenerative braking: The vehicle isrunning in drive (D) and is slowingdown. Power captured by theregenerative braking system is sentback to the high voltage battery.
Engine On Due To
The following conditions help explain whythe engine is on, and what you can do toallow all electric operation.
•Drive power: The engine is on due toaccelerator pedal pressure or speedcontrol activation. Reduce pressure onthe accelerator pedal or switch off thespeed control to return to full electricmode.
•High speed: The engine is on becausethe vehicle speed exceeds the level forfull electric operation. Reduce thespeed to return to electric operation.
•Heater setting: The engine is onbecause of the heater setting. Reduceor turn off the heater setting to returnto electric operation.
•Neutral gear: The engine is on becausethe vehicle is in neutral (N). Shift outof neutral gear to return to electricoperation.
•Engine cold: The engine is on becauseit is cold. The vehicle returns to electricoperation once the engine is sufficientlywarm.
•Battery charging: The engine is on tocharge the high voltage battery. Thevehicle returns to electric operationonce the battery is charged.
•Low gear: The engine is on because thevehicle is in low gear. Shift out of lowgear to return to electric operation.
•Normal operation: The engine is on tooptimize vehicle operation. The vehiclereturns to electric operation whenpossible.
•Engine braking active: The engine is onto provide increased powertrainbraking. This can occur when you turnon grade assist, when speed control ison or when driving with your foot offthe accelerator pedal. Turning offgrade assist or speed control mayallow the vehicle to return to electricoperation.
•Battery temperature: The engine is ondue to a high or low high voltagebattery temperature. This is a normaloperating condition. The vehicle returnsto electric operation when possible.
•Drive mode: The engine is on due to thedrive mode selection. Select anappropriate drive mode for electric onlyoperation.
ECO IDLE
WHAT IS ECO IDLE
Eco idle reduces fuel consumption whenyour vehicle is in park (P) and idling for longperiods of time. Eco idle more efficientlyextends the use of features that arepowered by the high voltage battery whenyour vehicle is stationary.
HOW DOES ECO IDLE WORK
Eco idle increases the engine idle speedabove normal for a short period of time toefficiently charge the high voltage battery.
Note:Engine sound and vibration could bemore noticeable.

FUEL AND REFUELING
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Do not overfill the fueltank. The pressure in an overfilled tankmay cause leakage and lead to fuel sprayand fire.
WARNING: The fuel system maybe under pressure. If you hear a hissingsound near the fuel filler inlet, do notrefuel until the sound stops. Otherwise,fuel may spray out, which could causeserious personal injury.
WARNING: Fuels can cause seriousinjury or death if misused or mishandled.
WARNING: Fuel may containbenzene, which is a cancer-causingagent.
WARNING: When refueling alwaysshut the engine off and never allowsparks or open flames near the fuel tankfiller valve. Never smoke or use a cellphone while refueling. Fuel vapor isextremely hazardous under certainconditions. Avoid inhaling excess fumes.
WARNING: Read and follow all theinstructions on the pump island.
Follow these guidelines when refueling:
•Extinguish all smoking materials andany open flames before refueling yourvehicle.
•Switch the engine off before refueling.
•Automotive fuels can be harmful orfatal if swallowed. Fuel is highly toxicand if swallowed can cause death orpermanent injury. If fuel is swallowedimmediately call a physician, even if nosymptoms are immediately apparent.The toxic effects of fuel may not beapparent for hours.
•Avoid inhaling fuel vapors. Inhaling fuelvapor can lead to eye and respiratorytract irritation. In severe cases,excessive or prolonged breathing offuel vapor can cause serious illness andpermanent injury.
•Avoid getting fuel in your eyes. If yousplash fuel in your eyes, immediatelyremove contact lenses, if worn, flushwith water for 15 minutes and seekmedical attention. Failure to seekproper medical attention could lead topermanent injury.
•Fuels can be harmful if absorbedthrough the skin. If you splash fuel onyour skin, clothing or both, promptlyremove contaminated clothing andthoroughly wash your skin with soapand water. Repeated or prolonged skincontact causes skin irritation.
•Be particularly careful if you are takingAntabuse or other forms of Disulfiramfor the treatment of alcoholism.Breathing fuel vapors could cause anadverse reaction, serious personalinjury or sickness. Immediately call aphysician if you experience any adversereactions.

WARNING: Always re-inflate tiresto recommended tire pressures beforethe vehicle is operated on-road. Therecommended pressure is located on thetire label or safety certification label,located on the B-pillar, inside the driver'sdoor.
Driving off-road places more stress on yourvehicle than most on-road driving. Afterdriving off-road check for damage to yourvehicle and, if necessary, have your vehiclefixed as soon as possible.
Inspect the underbody of your vehicle bychecking tires, body structure, steering,suspension, and exhaust system fordamage.
Check the radiator for mud and debris andclean as needed.
Remove accumulations of plants or brush.These things could be a fire hazard or hidedamage to the fuel lines, brake hoses, andpropeller shafts.
After extended operation in mud, sand,water, or similar dirty conditions, inspectthe underbody and clean your vehicle assoon as possible.
If you experience unusual vibration afterdriving in mud, slush or similar conditions,check the wheels for impacted material.Impacted material can cause vibrationswhile driving and wheel imbalance.Remove the material to resolve theproblem.
AFTER DRIVING YOUR VEHICLEOFF-ROAD - RAPTOR
WARNING: After off-road use,before returning to the road, check thewheels and tires for damage. Off-roaduse may cause damage to your wheelsand tires that can lead to tire failure, lossof vehicle control, serious injury or death.

DRIVING ON SNOW AND ICE
WARNING: If you are driving inslippery conditions that require tirechains or cables, then it is critical thatyou drive cautiously. Keep speeds down,allow for longer stopping distances andavoid aggressive steering to reduce thechances of a loss of vehicle controlwhich can lead to serious injury or death.If the rear end of your vehicle slides whilecornering, steer in the direction of theslide until you regain control of yourvehicle.
On ice and snow, you should drive moreslowly than usual. Your vehicle has a fourwheel anti-lock brake system, do not pumpthe brake pedal. See Anti-Lock BrakingSystem Limitations (page 291).
BREAKING-IN
Your vehicle requires a break-in period. Forthe first 1,000 mi (1,600 km), avoid drivingat high speeds, heavy braking, aggressiveshifting or using your vehicle to tow. Duringthis time, your vehicle may exhibit someunusual driving characteristics.
DRIVING ECONOMICALLY
The following helps to improve fuelconsumption:
•Drive smoothly, accelerate gently andanticipate the road ahead to avoidheavy braking.
•Regularly check your tire pressures andmake sure that they are inflated to thecorrect pressure.
•Follow the recommended maintenanceschedule and carry out therecommended checks.
•Plan your journey and check the trafficbefore you set off. It is more efficientto combine errands into a single tripwhenever possible.
•Avoid idling the engine in cold weatheror for extended periods. Start theengine only when you are ready to setoff.
•Do not carry unnecessary weight in yourvehicle as extra weight wastes fuel.
•Do not add unnecessary accessoriesto the exterior of your vehicle, forexample running boards. If you use aroof rack, remember to fold it down orremove it when not in use.
•Do not shift into neutral when you arebraking or when your vehicle is slowingdown.
•Shut all windows when driving at highspeeds.
•Switch off all electric systems whennot in use, for example air conditioning.Make sure that you unplug anyaccessories from the auxiliary powerpoints when not in use.
FLOOR MATS
WARNING: Use a floor matdesigned to fit the footwell of yourvehicle that does not obstruct the pedalarea. Failure to follow this instructioncould result in the loss of control of yourvehicle, personal injury or death.
