GARAGE DOOR OPENER
INTRODUCTION
HomeLink Wireless Control System
The universal garage door opener replaces
the common handheld garage door opener
with a three-button transmitter integrated
into the driver-side sun visor.
E18821E1882111
How Does The Garage Door Opener
Work
The system includes two primary features, a
garage door opener and a platform for
remote activation of devices within the home.
You can program garage doors as well as
entry gate operators, security systems, entry
door locks and home or office lighting.
Additional assistance can be found online at
www
.homelink.com/Ford or by calling the
toll-free help line at 1-800-355-3515.
Garage Door Opener Limitations
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to time out, or quit, after
several seconds – which may not be long
enough for HomeLink to pick up the signal.
U.S. gate operators time-out in the same
manner.

PRECAUTIONS AND
FREQUENCIES
Garage Door Opener Precautions
WARNING: Do not use the system
with any garage door opener that does not
have the safety stop and reverse feature
as required by U.S. Federal Safety
Standards (this includes any garage door
opener manufactured before April 1, 1982).
A garage door opener which cannot detect
an object, signaling the door to stop and
reverse, does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a garage door
opener without these features increases
the risk of serious injury or death.

Stopping the Engine When Your
Vehicle is Moving
WARNING: Switching off the engine
when your vehicle is still moving results in
a significant decrease in braking
assistance. Higher effort is required to
apply the brakes and to stop your vehicle.
A significant decrease in steering
assistance could also occur. The steering
does not lock, but higher effort could be
required to steer your vehicle. When you
switch the ignition off, some electrical
circuits, for example airbags, also turn off.
If you unintentionally switch the ignition
off, shift into neutral (N) and restart the
engine.

Guarding Against Exhaust Fumes
WARNING: Exhaust leaks may result
in entry of harmful and potentially lethal
fumes into the passenger compartment. If
you smell exhaust fumes inside your
vehicle, have your vehicle inspected
immediately. Do not drive if you smell
exhaust fumes.
Important Ventilating Information
If you stop your vehicle and then leave the
engine idling for long periods, we
recommend that you do one of the following:
• Open the windows at least 1 in (3 cm).
• Set your climate control to outside air.

battery power. Before your vehicle shuts
down, a message appears in the information
display showing a timer counting down from
211

30 seconds. If you do not intervene within
30 seconds, your vehicle shuts down.
Another message appears in the information
display to inform you that your vehicle has
shut down to save fuel. Start your vehicle as
you normally do.
Note:Automatic Engine Shutdown may be
more frequent for hybrid vehicles.
Automatic Engine Shutdown Override
Note: You cannot permanently switch off
the automatic shutdown feature. When you
switch it off temporarily, it turns on at the
next ignition cycle.You can stop the shutdown, or reset the
timer, at any point before the 30-second
countdown has expired by doing any of the
following:
• You can reset the timer by interacting
with your vehicle, for example pressing
the brake or accelerator pedal.
• You can temporarily switch off the
shutdown feature any time the ignition is
on using the information display. See
Information Displays (page 136). The
feature only remains off for the current

ENGINE BLOCK HEATER (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING: Failure to follow engine
block heater instructions could result in
property damage or serious personal
injury.
WARNING: Do not use your heater
with ungrounded electrical systems or
two-pronged adapters. There is a risk of
electrical shock.
WARNING: Do not fully close the
hood, or allow it to drop under its own
weight when using the engine block
heater. This could damage the power cable
and may cause an electrical short resulting
in fire, injury and property damage.
Note:The heater is most effective when
outdoor temperatures are below 0°F (-18°C).
213
Starting and Stopping the Engine

The heater acts as a starting aid by warming
the engine coolant. This allows the climate
control system to respond quickly. The
equipment includes a heater element
(installed in the engine block) and a wire
harness. You can connect the system to a
grounded 120-volt AC electrical source.
We recommend that you do the following for
a safe and correct operation:
• Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension cord
that is product certified by Underwriter’s
Laboratory (UL) or Canadian Standards
Association (CSA). This extension cord
must be suitable for use outdoors, in cold
temperatures, and be clearly marked
Suitable for Use with Outdoor
Appliances. Do not use an indoor
extension cord outdoors. This could
result in an electric shock or become a
fire hazard.
• Use as short an extension cord as
possible.
• Do not use multiple extension cords.• Make sure that when in operation, the
extension cord plug and heater cord plug
connections are free and clear of water.
This could cause an electric shock or fire.
• Make sure your vehicle is parked in a
clean area, clear of combustibles.
• Make sure the heater, heater cord and
extension cord are firmly connected.
• Check for heat anywhere in the electrical
hookup once the system has been
operating for approximately 30 minutes.
• Make sure the system is unplugged and
properly stowed before starting and
driving your vehicle. Make sure the
protective cover seals the prongs of the
block heater cord plug when not in use.
• Make sure the heater system is checked
for proper operation before winter.
Using the Engine Block Heater
The engine block heater receptacle terminals
are located on the left side of the engine
compartment.Make sure the receptacle terminals are clean
and dry prior to use. Clean them with a dry
cloth if necessary.
The heater uses 0.4 to 1.0 kilowatt-hours of
energy per hour of use. The system does not
have a thermostat. It achieves maximum
temperature after approximately three hours
of operation. Using the heater longer than
three hours does not improve system
performance and unnecessarily uses
electricity.

Starting and Stopping the Engine

Locking the Charging Coupler
E295451E295451E295451
Note:You need a padlock or a combination
lock with a shackle diameter of 0.2 in (5 mm)
or less, and the straight portion of the
shackle of 1.0 in (25.4 mm) of length or more.
1. Insert the lock through the hole in the
charging coupler button.
2. Lock the padlock or combination lock.
Waiting to Charge
E306678
Note:Select charge settings on the home
page of the touchscreen or under the vehicle
settings menu to access charge preferences.
See SYNC™ 3 (page 507).
Charging may not begin upon plugging in if
you have set up preferred charge times for
this vehicle location. Your vehicle could delay
charging to take advantage of off-peak
electricity rates. Your vehicle optimizes the
charge schedule to be complete by your next
departure time.
When waiting to charge, plugged in and not
currently charging, the charge status
indicator shows the present state of charge
of the high voltage battery by lighting up all
completed zones for 30 seconds before
turning off. For example, if the battery is at
70 percent charge then the bottom three
zones solidly light up to indicate a battery
charge level of at least 60 percent but less
than 80 percent. When the current state of
charge is less than 20 percent, none of the
zones light up.Note:When your vehicle is waiting to
charge, the charge status indicator turns off
30 seconds after displaying the present state
of charge. When your vehicle begins
charging, the charge status indicator turns
on and displays the status of the charge, as
described above.
Disconnecting the Charging Coupler
1. If you have installed a padlock or
combination lock, then remove it.
2. Press the button on the charging coupler.
3. While holding the button, remove the
charging coupler from the charge port
receptacle.
