Vehicle Range— Indicates the estimated distance the vehicle will
travel with the energy currently available. For Hybrid, the vehicle range
estimate is based on the fuel remaining in the gasoline tank. For Energi,
the total estimated distance equals the distance available in Hybrid Mode
fueled by gasoline, plus the EV distance available in Plug-in Power
Mode. Changes in driving pattern may cause the values to vary.
Instantaneous Fuel— This gauge is available on all Display mode
screens and shows the instantaneous fuel economy. It can be selected on
or off through the Options sub-menu. From any main display a right arrow
press on the steering wheel controls will take you to the Options
sub-menu.
Instantaneous fuel economy is displayed in miles per gallon, kilometers
per liter, or liters per 100 kilometers. Your vehicle must be moving to
calculate average fuel economy. If your instantaneous fuel economy is
greater than the maximum value the graph can display,a+signwillbe
shown next to maximum scale number. When the vehicle is operating on
battery power only, EV is displayed and the gauge fill is shown in blue.
For Energi vehicles, in the Display section of the Settings menu you
can choose your fuel economy units as Fuel only or fuel + electric.
When fuel + electric is chosen your electrical energy use during
Plug-in Power Mode is included in your instantaneous fuel economy.
This is based on its equivalent energy in terms of gallons or liters of
gasoline. The units will be displayed as MPGe, which reads miles per
gallon equivalent, and similarly, km/Le and Le/100km.

•Inform— Inform shows the fuel level, battery display and average
fuel economy, with options available for the Battery Display and an
Instantaneous Fuel Economy gauge. When the vehicle is operating on
battery power only, EV is displayed. Hold OK to reset average fuel
economy.
•
Enlighten— Enlighten displays power demand in addition to the typical
information and options from Inform. The Instantaneous Fuel Economy
gauge will be displayed by default. When the vehicle is operating on
battery power only, EV is displayed and the gauge fill is shown in blue.
When both the engine and the electric motor are providing power the
gauge fill is white. Hold OK to reset average fuel economy.
•Engage— Engage replaces the power demand gauge from Enlighten
with separate gauges for engine power and electric motor power. The
engine power gauge fill is white and the high voltage battery power
gauge fill is blue. When the vehicle is operating on battery power only,
EV is displayed. Hold OK to reset average fuel economy.
•Empower— Empower adds an engine on/off threshold to the power
demand gauge from Enlighten. The threshold is shown as a blue
double outline. The gauge is designed to show you how close you are
to the gasoline engine on/off threshold and how much power you are
requesting by how much you press on the accelerator pedal.
When power demand is below the threshold the vehicle is operating on
battery power only, EV is displayed and the gauge fill is shown in blue.
When power demand exceeds the threshold both the engine and the
high voltage battery provide power and the gauge fill is white.
When power demand surpasses the amber indicator, this level of
demand and associated fuel economy are shown in amber.
Hold OK to reset average fuel economy.
MyView— You can choose what to display in this view. Selecting
Change MyView in the Options menu allows you to scroll through two
columns of content choices. The content you select is saved to the
current driver’s key as MyView.
•Avg Fuel — Indicates the average fuel consumption since the function
was last reset.
•Power — When the transmission is in a drive gear only, this gauge
shows you vehicle power.

After locating the white plastic funnel:
1. Slowly insert the funnel into the capless fuel
system.
2. Fill the vehicle with fuel from the portable fuel
container.
3. When done, clean the funnel or properly dispose
of it. Extra funnels can be purchased from your
authorized dealer if you choose to dispose of the funnel.
Note:For C-MAX Energi vehicles
press the fuel button located on the
instrument panel before performing
step 2.
FUEL CONSUMPTION
Filling the Tank
The advertised capacity is the indicated capacity and the empty reserve
combined. Indicated capacity is the difference in the amount of fuel in a
full tank and a tank when the fuel gauge indicates empty. Empty reserve
is the amount of fuel in the tank after the fuel gauge indicates empty.
Note:The amount of usable fuel in the empty reserve varies and should
not be relied upon to increase driving range. When refueling your vehicle
after the fuel gauge indicates empty, you might not be able to refuel the
full amount of the advertised capacity of the fuel tank due to the empty
reserve still present in the tank.
For consistent results when filling the fuel tank:
•Turn the ignition off before fueling; an inaccurate reading results if the
engine is left running.
•Use the same fill rate (low–medium–high) each time the tank is filled.
•Allow no more than two automatic click–offs when filling.
Results are most accurate when the filling method is consistent.
