WHAT IS ONE PEDAL DRIVE
One pedal drive allows you to accelerate
and brake using only the accelerator pedal.
Pressing the accelerator down accelerates
your vehicle, releasing pressure on the
accelerator with your foot still on the pedal
slows down your vehicle and releasing the
pedal completely allows your vehicle to
come to a complete stop.

WHAT IS PRE-COLLISION
ASSIST
Pre-collision assist detects and warns of
approaching hazards in the roadway. If
your vehicle is rapidly approaching another
stationary vehicle, a vehicle traveling in the
same direction as yours, or a pedestrian
within your driving path, the system
provides multiple levels of assistance to
help avoid a collision.
HOW DOES PRE-COLLISION
ASSIST WORK
The system warns the driver of potential
hazards by providing three levels of
assistance.
If your vehicle is rapidly approaching
potential hazards the system provides the
following levels of functionality:
1. Alert.
2. Brake Support.
3. Automatic Emergency Braking.
Alert: When active, a flashing
visual warning appears and an
audible warning tone sounds.
Brake Support
: The system is designed
to help reduce the impact speed by
preparing the brakes for rapid braking. The
system does not automatically apply the
brakes. If you press the brake pedal, the
system could apply additional braking up
to maximum braking force, even if you
lightly press the brake pedal.
Automatic Emergency Braking
:
Automatic emergency braking may
activate if the system determines that a
collision is imminent. Note:
If you perceive pre-collision assist
alerts as being too frequent or disturbing,
then you can reduce the alert sensitivity,
although the manufacturer recommends
using the highest sensitivity setting where
possible. Setting lower sensitivity would
lead to fewer and later system warnings.
Each system has various levels of
detection capabilities. See Pre-Collision
Assist Limitations
(page 258).
PRE-COLLISION ASSIST
PRECAUTIONS WARNING: You are responsible for
controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your vehicle,
personal injury or death. WARNING:
The system does not
detect vehicles moving in a different
direction or animals. Apply the brakes
when necessary. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in the loss of
control of your vehicle, personal injury or
death. WARNING:
The system does not
operate during hard acceleration or
steering. Failure to take care may lead
to a crash or personal injury. WARNING: The system may fail or
operate with reduced function during
cold and severe weather conditions.
Snow, ice, rain, spray and fog can
adversely affect the system. Keep the
front camera and radar free of snow and
ice. Failure to take care may result in the
loss of control of your vehicle, serious
personal injury or death.

EVASIVE STEERING ASSIST
WHAT IS EVASIVE STEERING
ASSIST
If your vehicle is rapidly approaching a road
user, evasive steering assist helps you steer
around the road user.
After you turn the steering wheel in an
attempt to avoid a crash with the road
user, the system applies additional steering
torque to help you steer around the road
user. After you pass the road user, the
system applies steering torque when you
turn the steering wheel to steer back into
the lane. The system deactivates after you
fully pass the road user.
Note: Road users are defined as
pedestrians in your vehicle's path or another
stationary vehicle in the same lane or a
vehicle traveling in the same lane in the
same direction as you. See
Pre-Collision
Assist Precautions (page 257). EVASIVE STEERING ASSIST
LIMITATIONS
Evasive steering assist only activates when
all the following occur:
•
Automatic emergency braking and
evasive steering assist are on.
• The system detects a road user ahead
and starts to apply the brakes.
• You significantly turn the steering
wheel to steer around a road user.
Note: Evasive steering assist does not
automatically steer around a road user. If
you do not turn the steering wheel, evasive
steering assist does not activate.
Note: Evasive steering assist does not
activate if the distance to the road user
ahead is too small and the system cannot
avoid a crash.
Note: Evasive steering does not activate
with cyclists.

COLD WEATHER
PRECAUTIONS
The functional operation of some
components and systems can be affected
at temperatures below approximately
-13°F (-25°C).
DRIVING ON SNOW AND ICE WARNING:
If you are driving in
slippery conditions that require tire
chains or cables, then it is critical that
you drive cautiously. Keep speeds down,
allow for longer stopping distances and
avoid aggressive steering to reduce the
chances of a loss of vehicle control
which can lead to serious injury or death.
If the rear end of your vehicle slides while
cornering, steer in the direction of the
slide until you regain control of your
vehicle.
On ice and snow, you should drive more
slowly than usual. Your vehicle has a four
wheel anti-lock brake system, do not pump
the brake pedal.
See Anti-Lock Braking
System Limitations (page 187).
BREAKING-IN
You need to break in new tires for
approximately
300 mi (480 km). During
this time, your vehicle may exhibit some
unusual driving characteristics.
PERFORMANCE VEHICLE
PRECAUTIONS
• Verify correct tire pressures.
• Inspect wheels and tires for wear and
damage. Replace any damaged wheels
or tires. •
Do not operate your vehicle at high
speeds with more than two passengers
or while carrying cargo.
• It is recommended to cross speed
bumps or driveway inclines slowly and
at a
45° angle to reduce the risk of
vehicle damage.
• Do not drive through car washes with
the vehicle heavily loaded with
passengers or luggage.
• Use only commercial car washes
without mechanical tracks or hand
wash to avoid potential damage.
• Put your vehicle in stay in neutral mode
when entering an automatic car wash.
See
What Is Temporary Neutral
Mode (page 184).
DRIVING IN SPECIAL
CONDITIONS
EMERGENCY MANEUVERS
In an unavoidable emergency where you
must make a sudden sharp maneuver, turn
the steering wheel only as rapidly and as
far as required to avoid the emergency.
Apply smooth pressure to the accelerator
pedal or brake pedal as needed. Avoid
abrupt steering, acceleration and braking
changes. Abrupt changes could increase
the risk of vehicle roll over, loss of vehicle
control and personal injury. If possible, use
any available road surfaces to bring your
vehicle under control.

DRIVING THROUGH MUD AND
WATER
Mud
Be cautious of sudden changes in vehicle
speed or direction when you are driving in
mud. Even all-wheel drive and four-wheel
drive vehicles can lose traction in mud. If
your vehicle slides, steer in the direction of
the slide until you regain control of your
vehicle. After driving through mud, clean
off residue stuck to rotating driveshafts
and tires. Excess residue can cause an
imbalance that could damage drive
components.
Note:
If your vehicle gets stuck in mud, it
could be rocked out by shifting between
forward and reverse gears, stopping
between shifts in a steady pattern. Press
lightly on the accelerator in each gear.
Water
If you must drive through water approach
it cautiously. See Driving Through
Shallow Water (page 282).
DRIVING ON HILLY OR SLOPING
TERRAIN
Although natural obstacles could make it
necessary to travel diagonally up or down
a hill or steep incline, you should try to drive
straight up or straight down.
Note: Avoid turning on steep slopes or hills.
A danger lies in losing traction, slipping
sideways and possible vehicle roll over.
Whenever driving on a hill, determine
beforehand the route you can use. Do not
drive over the crest of a hill without seeing
what conditions are on the other side. Do
not drive in reverse over a hill without the
aid of an observer. Apply just enough power to the wheels to
climb the hill. Too much power causes the
tires to slip, spin or lose traction, and you
could lose control of your vehicle. When
descending a steep hill, do not descend
the hill in neutral. Avoid sudden hard
braking to keep the front wheels rolling and
to maintain your vehicle's steering.
Note:
Your vehicle has anti-lock brakes,
apply the brakes steadily. Do not pump the
brakes.
Note: If your vehicle gets stuck driving on
hilly or sloping terrain, it could be rocked out
by shifting between forward and reverse
gears, stopping between shifts in a steady
pattern. Press lightly on the accelerator in
each gear.
DRIVING IN SAND
When driving over sand, try to keep all four
wheels on the most solid area of the trail.
Shift to a lower gear and drive steadily
through the terrain. Apply the accelerator
slowly and avoid excessive wheel slip. Do
not drive your vehicle in deep sand for an
extended period of time. This could
overheat the system. A message appears
in the information display. See All-Wheel
Drive – Information Messages
(page
186).
Note: If your vehicle gets stuck driving on
hilly or sloping terrain, it could be rocked out
by shifting between forward and reverse
gears, stopping between shifts in a steady
pattern. Press lightly on the accelerator in
each gear.

ELECTRIC VEHICLE
MAXIMIZING YOUR DRIVING
RANGE
Driving in Cold Weather
Keep your vehicle charged before heading
out into cold weather.
Use the heated seats and steering wheel
for comfort along with moderate cabin
temperature and fan settings to reduce
energy needed for climate control.
Preconditioning Your Vehicle
You can precondition your vehicle by using
departure and comfort settings to warm
or cool your cabin and the high voltage
battery when your vehicle is plugged in. By
using energy from your charging source
prior to your departure, battery
temperature can be managed for best
driving performance and less energy will
be needed for heating or cooling of the
cabin at the start of your drive. This helps
maximize your driving range. See Setting
the Charging Schedule and Preferences
(page 174).
Note: You can also access departure and
comfort settings using the FordPass App.
Note: Lower cabin temperature settings on
the climate control system results in better
trip range.
Parking Your Vehicle
At temperatures just above the freezing
point and lower, plug your vehicle in when
not in use to maintain high voltage battery
performance.
When possible park your vehicle under a
covered area or in a garage. This will help
to moderate temperatures which affect
performance of the high voltage battery
and require energy to heat or cool the
cabin. Driving Style
Range is reduced when driving aggressively
or at consistently high speeds. Aggressive
driving for extended periods could also
result in reducing your battery
’s efficiency
and lifespan. Use the trip application on
your touchscreen to see your driving scores.
See
Trip Data (page 124).
DRIVING THROUGH SHALLOW
WATER WARNING:
Do not attempt to
cross a deep or flowing body of water.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death.
Note: Driving through standing water can
cause vehicle damage.
Before driving through standing water,
check the depth. Never drive through water
that is higher than the bottom of the front
rocker area of your vehicle. When driving through standing water, drive
very slowly and do not stop your vehicle.
Your brake performance and traction could
be limited. After driving through water and
as soon as it is safe to do so:
