Brake-Shift Interlock
WARNING:Do not drive your vehicle until you verify that the
brake lamps are working.
WARNING:When doing this procedure, you will be taking the
vehicle out of park which means the vehicle can roll freely.
To avoid unwanted vehicle movement, always fully set the parking
brake prior to doing this procedure. Use wheel chocks if appropriate.
WARNING:If the parking brake is fully released, but the brake
warning lamp remains illuminated, the brakes may not be
working properly. See your authorized dealer.
This vehicle is equipped with a brake-shift interlock feature that prevents
the gearshift lever from being moved from P (Park) when the ignition is
in the on position unless the brake pedal is pressed.
If you cannot move the gearshift lever out of P (Park) with ignition in
the on position and the brake pedal pressed, it is possible that a fuse has
blown or the vehicle’s brake lamps are not operating properly. Refer to
Fuses and relaysin theRoadside Emergencieschapter.

SENSING SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING:To help avoid personal injury, please read and
understand the limitations of the system as contained in this
section. Sensing is only an aid for some (generally large and fixed)
objects when moving in reverse on a flat surface at parking speeds.
Traffic control systems, inclement weather, air brakes, and external
motors and fans may also affect the function of the sensing system; this
may include reduced performance or a false activation.
WARNING:To help avoid personal injury, always use caution
when in R (Reverse) and when using the sensing system.
WARNING:This system is not designed to prevent contact with
small or moving objects. The system is designed to provide a
warning to assist the driver in detecting large stationary objects to
avoid damaging the vehicle. The system may not detect smaller objects,
particularly those close to the ground.
WARNING:Certain add-on devices such as large trailer hitches,
bike or surfboard racks and any device that may block the normal
detection zone of the system, may create false beeps.
Note:Keep the sensors (located on the bumper/fascia) free from snow,
ice and large accumulations of dirt. If the sensors are covered, the
system’s accuracy can be affected. Do not clean the sensors with sharp
objects.
Note:If your vehicle sustains damage to the bumper/fascia, leaving it
misaligned or bent, the sensing zone may be altered causing inaccurate
measurement of obstacles or false alarms.
Note:If your vehicle is equipped with MyKey®, it is possible to prevent
turning the sensing system off. Refer to theMyKey®chapter.
The sensing system warns the driver of obstacles within a certain range
of the bumper area. The system turns on automatically whenever the
ignition is switched on.
When receiving a detection warning, the radio volume is reduced to a
predetermined level. After the warning goes away, the radio volume
returns to the previous level.

In the event of damage or fire involving an electric vehicle (EV) or
hybrid-electric vehicle (HEV):
•Always assume the high-voltage battery and associated components
are energized and fully charged.
•Exposed electrical components, wires, and high-voltage batteries
present potential high-voltage shock hazards.
•Venting/off-gassing high-voltage battery vapors are potentially toxic
and flammable.
•Physical damage to the vehicle or high-voltage battery may result in
immediate or delayed release of toxic and/or flammable gases and fire.
Vehicle information and general safety practices:
•Know the make and model of your vehicle.
•Review the Owner’s Manual and become familiar with your vehicle’s
safety information and recommended safety practices.
•Do not attempt to repair damaged electric and hybrid-electric vehicles
yourself. Contact an authorized Ford Dealer or vehicle manufacturer
representative for service.
Crashes
A crash or impact significant enough to require an emergency response
for conventional vehicles would also require the same response for an
electric or hybrid-electric vehicle.
If possible
•Move your car to a safe, nearby location and remain on the scene.
•Roll down windows before shutting vehicle off.
•Place vehicle in Park, set parking brake, turn off the vehicle, activate
hazard lights, and move key(s) at least 16 feet (5 meters) away from
the vehicle.
