ENGINE BLOCK HEATER (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING:Failure to follow engine block heater instructions
could result in property damage or physical injury.
WARNING:Do not use your heater with ungrounded electrical
systems or two-pronged (cheater) adapters. There is a risk of
electrical shock.
Note:The heater is most effective when outdoor temperatures are below
0°F (-18°C).
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 A/C
electrical source.
We recommend that you do the following for safe and correct operation:
•
Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension cord that is product certified by
Underwriter’s Laboratory or Canadian Standards Association. This
extension cord must be able to be used outdoors, in cold temperatures,
and be clearly markedSuitable for Use with Outdoor Appliances.
Never use an indoor extension cord outdoors; it 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 the
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.

If the fuel fill inlet was not properly closed, a Check Fuel Fill Inlet
message may appear on the information display screen. At the next
opportunity, do the following:
1. Safely pull off the road.
2. Put the vehicle inP(Park) and turn the ignition off.
3. Open the fuel filler door and remove any visible debris from the fuel
fill opening.
4. Insert either the fuel fill nozzle or the fuel fill funnel provided with the
vehicle several times to dislodge any debris and/or allow the inlet to
close properly.
If this action corrects the problem, the message may not reset
immediately. It may take several driving cycles for the message to turn
off. A driving cycle consists of an engine start-up (after four or more
hours with the engine off) followed by city/highway driving. Continuing
to drive with the message on may cause the service engine soon lamp to
turn on as well.
Using the Easy Fuel™ Capless Fuel System (C-MAX Energi Only)
WARNING:The fuel system may be under pressure. Insert the
fuel nozzle slowly. If you hear a hissing sound near the fuel filler
door, do not refuel until the sound stops. Otherwise, fuel may spray
out, which could cause serious personal injury.
Note:Your vehicle features a locking fuel door and an Easy Fuel™
system which has a auto-sealing feature that locks the fuel tank refueling
valve. Before you can refuel your vehicle you must first press the button
located on your instrument panel. Pressing this button will unlock the
fuel tank refueling valve allowing the fuel filler door to open so that the
fuel filler nozzle can be inserted into the fuel tank. This could take up to
15 seconds before the fuel filler door pops open allowing the insertion of
the fuel filler nozzle. In the event that the fuel valve does not unlock
automatically you can pull the manual override lever located in the
trunk. This will open the refueling door and allow access to fill your
vehicle.

charging experience:
•Value Charge:The vehicle schedules charging at the lowest available
utility rates. Contact your utility company to see what rates are
available.
•Charge Now:Fully charge your vehicle at the quickest rate.
The vehicle starts charging immediately after you connect the
charging plug into the vehicle.
•
My GO Time:Setting My GO times through the MyFord Mobile
application allows you to set charging schedules and cabin preconditioning
settings so your vehicle is ready to drive when you are. By setting a My
GO time the vehicles charge can be completed before your next set drive
time. A calendar view allows you to program two My GO Times per day
for each of the seven days of the week. Remember, your vehicle must be
plugged in for My GO time to work.
•Cabin Preconditioning:Get the most miles out of every charge by
preconditioning your vehicle while it’s still plugged in and charging.
Use your smart phone to set the cabin temperature and departure
time before you leave so you use energy from your home wall outlet
instead of your battery to heat or cool your vehicle.

REPAIRING MINOR PAINT DAMAGE
Your authorized dealer has touch-up paint to match your vehicle’s color.
Take your color code (printed on a sticker in the driver’s door jamb) to
your authorized dealer to make sure you get the correct color.
•Remove particles, such as bird droppings, tree sap, insect deposits, tar
spots, road salt and industrial fallout, before repairing paint chips.
•Always read the instructions before using the products.
CLEANING THE ENGINE
WARNING:Exposure to high voltage may result in severe
personal injury or death. High voltage components must be
serviced by a trained service technician.
Engines are more efficient when they are clean because grease and dirt
buildup keep the engine warmer than normal.
When washing, always power-down the vehicle and wait five minutes
before touching any electrical components. Observe the following:
•Use a dry cloth to remove excess dirt that collects on the electrical
components or in the charge port.
•Cover the inverter system controller, power distribution box, and air
filter assembly to prevent water damage when cleaning the engine.
•Never use a power washer to clean the engine or in the charge port.
The high-pressure fluid could penetrate the sealed parts and cause
damage and risk of personal injury.
•Never spray water on any of the orange colored components because
these components use high voltage. Never wash or rinse any ignition
coil, spark plug wire or spark plug well, or the area in and around
these locations. Water ingress can damage electrical components and
connections.
•Do not spray a hot engine with cold water to avoid cracking the
engine block or other engine components.
•Never wash or rinse the engine while it is hot or running; water in the
running engine may cause internal damage.
•Spray Motorcraft® Engine Shampoo and Degreaser on all parts that
require cleaning and rinse clean. In Canada, use Motorcraft® Engine
Shampoo.

4. Plug the power cable into the
12-volt power point in the vehicle.
5. Remove the warning sticker found on the canister and place it on the
top of the instrument panel or the center of the dash.
6.Note:Start the engine only if the vehicle is outdoors or in a
well-ventilated area.
7. Push and turn dial (A)
counterclockwise to the sealant
position. Turn on the kit by pressing
the on button (B).
8. Inflate the tire to the pressure
listed on the Tire Label located on
the driver’s door or the door jamb
area.
Note:When the sealing compound is first added into the tire, the air
pressure gauge reading on the compressor unit may indicate a higher
value; this is normal and should be no reason for concern. The pressure
will drop after about 30 seconds of operation. The tire pressure has to be
checked with the compressor in the OFF position to get the correct tire
pressure reading.
