PLAYING A CD
Note: CD units are designed to play commercially pressed 4.75 in
(12 cm) audio compact discs in the ISO 9660 format only. (UDF
format is not supported.) Due to technical incompatibility,
certain recordable and re-recordable compact discs may not
function correctly when used in CD players. Irregular shaped
CDs, CDs with a scratch protection film attached, and CDs with
homemade paper (adhesive) labels should not be inserted into
the CD player. The label may peel and cause the CD to become
jammed. It is recommended that homemade CDs be identified
with permanent felt tip marker rather than adhesive labels.
Ballpoint pens may damage CDs. Please contact your authorized
dealer for further information.
If you press CD/DVD and there is not a disc loaded into the system, NO
DISC will appear in the status bar and you will not be able to access the

FUEL ECONOMY SCREEN
If you have a Fusion Hybrid or MKZ Hybrid, the fuel economy screen
displays instantaneous fuel consumption, overall average fuel economy
and also a graph of fuel economy achieved in the last 10, 20 or
60 minutes of driving. (Refer to Average Fuel Economy in the
Instrument Cluster chapter in your Owner’s Guide.) To view this screen,
select ‘Show Fuel Economy’ on the ‘HEV’ tab screen.
If you have an Escape Hybrid, the
fuel economy screen will display fuel
economy achieved in the last
10 minutes of driving. (Refer to
Average Fuel Economy in the
Instrument Cluster chapter in your
Owner’s Guide.) To view this screen,
select ’Fuel Economy’ on the ‘HEV’
tab screen.
•Instantaneous Fuel Economy (Inst Econ):This is displayed on
the vertical bar on the left of the screen ranging from 0–60 mpg.
When the vehicle is not moving, the Ins Econ function will display no
bar on the Inst Cons graph indicating 0 mpg. Conversely, if you are
driving in electric mode (engine off), this function will display 60+
mpg. Instantaneous Economy cannot be reset.
•Overall Average Fuel Economy (AVG MPG):The AVG MPG is
displayed on the upper left hand corner of the screen. The AVG MPG
will be retained when the key is turned off and will continue averaging
when driving resumes. Pressing RESET will reset the AVG MPG to
zero. This will also reset the Average Fuel Economy on the Instrument
Cluster.
Note:If you have an Escape Hybrid, the average fuel economy
information will not appear in the instrument cluster.
•Fuel Economy History graph:Depending on your vehicle, this
graph will indicate average fuel economy in 10, 20 or 60 minute
intervals. If you have a Fusion Hybrid or MKZ Hybrid, you can choose
the interval using the message center. If you have an Escape Hybrid,
the display will appear in 10 minute intervals. The graph is updated
each minute with the fuel economy that was achieved during the prior
10, 20 or 60 minutes of driving. Each new average will be added to the
left side of the graph, shifting the past data to the right. When the
graph area is full, the right most point will be deleted, keeping a

running scroll with the bar on the left being the most recent.
For the Fusion Hybrid and MKZ Hybrid, the previous values will
remain when the vehicle is shut off and restarted, but values from a
previous drive cycle will be grayed out.
For the Escape Hybrid, you will start with an empty fuel economy
history with every ignition cycle.
If the navigation system has been set to units of Kilometer, the Fuel
Economy screen will display the equivalent Consumption Graph in units
of L/100 KM. In Consumption (L/100 KM) mode, the IFE function will
display MAX until the vehicle is moving. For more information on
Average Fuel Economy, refer toMessage centerin theInstrument
Clusterchapter in yourOwner’s Guide.
Power and efficiency (if equipped)
If you have an Escape Hybrid, your
vehicle is equipped with a Power &
Efficiency screen which provides
additional information about brake
efficiency, vehicle power, air
conditioning power and efficiency
information.
Brake (brake gauge):The narrow band indicates brake power demand.
(The more you press on the brake pedal, the more braking power you
demand of the vehicle). The wide band remains stationary to show the
area in which braking is more efficient (beneath the line) and the
approximate point where the limit of regenerative braking is reached (at
the top of the line) and where conventional friction braking is applied
(over the line).
•When possible, anticipate braking. Moderate braking will help you stay
within the efficient braking zone (keeping the narrow band below the
wide band) thereby improving the regenerative braking energy
recovery.
•Brake demand may be present when coasting (without your foot on
the brake pedal), particularly in low gear as the powertrain is
contributing to slowing the vehicle.
Note:At zero vehicle speed, the narrow band indicator will show zero.

Eff (efficiency gauge):The efficiency gauge indicates short term
driving efficiency, measured over the last few minutes. Higher efficiency
is indicated by an increase in the level indication.
•This display can be impacted by your use of brakes, accelerator and
accessories as well as environmental conditions such as terrain and
weather.
•The efficiency display does not reset with the ’Reset’ economy button.
Engine on:This gauge provides you with the reason why the engine is
running. When the gasoline engine is on, the buttons will show the
reason why. When the gasoline engine is off, ’EV’ will appear in the
display. When the gasoline engine is on, one or two of the following
reasons will appear. For a more complete description of the reason,
simply press the desired button on the touchscreen.
•Engine cold: The engine is on to warm-up. The vehicle will return to
electric mode when the engine is warm. This reason may re-appear
during a drive or after shutting the vehicle down for a short period.
This is normal operation.
•Heater setting: The engine is on because of the heater setting. Reduce
or turn off the heater setting to return to electric mode.
•High speed: The engine is on because the vehicle speed exceeds the
level for electric mode operation. Reduce the speed to return to
electric mode.
•Acceleration: The engine is on because of pressure applied to the
accelerator pedal. Reduce the pressure on the accelerator pedal to
return to full electric mode.
•Neutral Gear: The engine is on because the vehicle is in neutral gear.
Shift out of neutral gear to return to electric mode.
•Low Gear: The engine is on because the vehicle is in low gear. Shift
out of low gear to return to electric mode.
•Batt charging (battery charging): The engine is on to charge the
hybrid battery. The vehicle will return to electric mode once the
battery is charged.
•Normal operation: The engine is on to optimize vehicle operation. The
vehicle will return to electric mode when possible.
