Note:
Event data recorder data is recorded
by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash
situation occurs; no data is recorded by the
event data recorder under normal driving
conditions and no personal data or
information (for example name, gender,
age, and crash location) is recorded.
However, parties, such as law enforcement,
could combine the event data recorder data
with the type of personally identifying data
routinely acquired during a crash
investigation.
To read data recorded by an event data
recorder, special equipment is required,
and access to the vehicle or the event data
recorder is needed. In addition to the
vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such
as law enforcement, that have such special
equipment, can read the information if they
have access to the vehicle or the event
data recorder.
Active Drive Assist Driver Facing
Camera Data (If Equipped)
If active drive assist is active in certain
crash or near crash-like situations, such as
an airbag deployment or hitting a road
obstacle, the system may record driver
attentiveness, based on the direction of
eyes and duration, and photographs of the
driver seat area.
Note: No data is recorded under normal
driving conditions.
SETTINGS DATA
Your vehicle has electronic control units
that have the ability to store data based
on your personalized settings. The data is
stored locally in the vehicle or on devices
that you connect to it, for example, a USB
drive or digital music player. You can delete
some of this data and also choose whether
to share it through the services to which
you subscribe. Comfort and Convenience Data
Data recorded includes, for example:
•
Seat and steering wheel positions.
• Climate control settings.
• Radio presets.
Entertainment Data
Data recorded includes, for example:
• Music, videos or album art.
• Contacts and corresponding address
book entries.
• Navigation destinations.
CONNECTED VEHICLE DATA The modem has a SIM. The
modem was enabled when your
vehicle was built and periodically
sends messages to stay connected to the
cell phone network, receive automatic
software updates and send vehicle-related
information to us, for example diagnostic
information. These messages could
include information that identifies your
vehicle, the SIM and the electronic serial
number of the modem. Cell phone network
service providers could have access to
additional information, for example, cell
phone network tower identification. For
additional information about our privacy
policy, visit www.FordConnected.com or
refer to your local Ford website.
Note: The modem continues to send this
information unless you disable the modem
or stop the modem from sharing vehicle
data by changing the modem settings.
See
Connected Vehicle (page 350).
Note: The service can be unavailable or
interrupted for a number of reasons, for
example, environmental or topographical
conditions and data plan coverage.
Note: To find out if your vehicle has a
modem, visit www.FordConnected.com.

The amount of energy being used when
driving is affected by:
•
Mild or aggressive acceleration or
braking.
• Your vehicle's speed.
• Use of accessories, such as climate
control.
• Ambient temperature and weather
conditions.
• Driving in a city or on a highway.
• Driving on flat or hilly roads.
The available energy capacity in the high
voltage battery is affected by cold
temperatures and battery degradation.
See Preserving Your High Voltage
Battery (page 157).
When your navigation system has an active
route the distance to your destination or
next charging station is also displayed.
Note: It is normal for vehicle range
estimates to vary due to changes in average
energy usage and battery temperature. This
could cause different range estimates each
time you fully charge your battery. See
Maximizing Your Driving Range (page 282
).
Note: When you leave your vehicle
unplugged, it periodically uses energy from
the high voltage battery to recharge the
12-volt accessory battery, resulting in
reduction in vehicle driving range.
WHAT IS THE HIGH VOLTAGE
BATTERY GAUGE
Displays the high voltage battery state of
charge in the form of a gauge or a
percentage. A full fill or 100% charge
represents the total amount of energy you
can get from plugging your vehicle in.
The gauge is normally blue. When a low
battery condition is reached the gauge is
amber. When the battery is depleted the
gauge is red. When the full battery gauge is displayed
and your navigation system has an active
route, a symbol is added that represents
the battery charge level needed to reach
your destination or next charging station.
Charging Status
Additional charge information displays
when you power on your vehicle without
pressing the brake pedal and your vehicle
is plugged in. Charging status includes the
charge start or charge end time as
appropriate. When DC charging, the time
at 80% displays followed by the time at
100%. You can modify your vehicle charge
settings on the information and
entertainment display. See
Setting the
Charging Schedule and Preferences
(page
174).
Charge Required to Reach Destination
When the navigation system has an active
route, the instrument cluster displays the
charge level required in order to reach your
destination and the time when that charge
level is available.
WHAT ARE THE INSTRUMENT
CLUSTER WARNING LAMPS
Warning lamps alert you to a vehicle
condition that could 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.

TRIP DATA
Trip data includes distance, time and
energy economy. Better energy economy,
meaning greater efficiency or lower
consumption, results in increased driving
range.
Where Did My Energy Go
Displays a breakdown of energy
consumption for your trip. •
Climate Use – This includes energy
used by your vehicle ’s high voltage
climate control components such as
the electric A/C compressor and the
electric heater.
• Driving – This includes energy used to
propel your vehicle based on your
driving style and route. Your driving
style includes how fast you drive and
whether your acceleration and braking
is mild or aggressive. Your route
includes factors such as the amount
of city or highway driving and road
slopes.
• Accessories – This includes energy
used for low voltage accessories such
as climate system fans, heated seats
and lighting.
• Exterior Temperature – This includes
energy losses due to outside
temperature and other conditions
which reduce vehicle system efficiency.
How Is My Driving
Display ’s scores for trip driving behavior.
Higher scores result in better energy
economy.
• Acceleration – Light to moderate
acceleration improves your score.
• Braking – We recommend slow and
steady braking.
• Speed – Maintain reasonable vehicle
speeds for best scores. You can view additional trip data
by pressing the icon on your
touchscreen.

CLIMATE CONTROL HINTS
General Hints
• Use of the climate system will reduce
your vehicles driving range. Conserve
battery charge by using climate control
features when necessary.
• Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to fog up.
• You may feel a small amount of air
from the footwell air vents regardless
of the air distribution setting.
• To reduce humidity build-up inside your
vehicle, do not drive with the system
switched off or with recirculated air
always switched on.
• Remove any snow, ice or leaves from
the air intake area at the base of the
windshield.
• To improve the time to reach a
comfortable temperature in hot
weather, drive with the windows open
until you feel cold air through the air
vents. Automatic Climate Control
•
Adjusting the settings when your
vehicle interior is extremely hot or cold
is not necessary. Automatic mode is
best recommended to maintain set
temperature.
• The system adjusts to heat or cool the
interior to the temperature you select
as quickly as possible.
• For the system to function efficiently,
the instrument panel and side air vents
should be fully open.
• If you press AUTO during cold outside
temperatures, the system directs air
flow to the windshield and side window
air vents. The blower motor speed may
reduce until the air warms.
• If you press
AUTO during hot
temperatures and the inside of the
vehicle is hot, the system uses
recirculated air to maximize interior
cooling. Blower motor speed may also
reduce until the air cools.
Quickly Heating the Interior
1. Press
AUTO.
2. Adjust the temperature function to the
setting you prefer.
