This Quick Reference Guide is not intended
to replace your vehicle Owner’s Manual
which contains more detailed information
concerning the features of your vehicle, as
well as important safety warnings designed
to help reduce the risk of injury to you and your
passengers. Please read your entire Owner’s
Manual carefully as you begin learning about
your new vehicle and refer to the appropriate
chapters when questions arise. All information
contained in this Quick Reference Guide was
accurate at the time of duplication. We reserve
the right to change features, operation and/
or functionality of any vehicle specification at
any time. Your Ford dealer is the best source
for the most current information. For detailed
operating and safety information, please
consult your Owner’s Manual.
WARNINGDriving while distracted can result in loss of
vehicle control, crash and injury. We strongly
recommend that you use extreme caution
when using any device that may take your
focus off the road. Your primary responsibility
is the safe operation of your vehicle. We
recommend against the use of any hand-held
device while driving and encourage the use of
voice-operated systems when possible. Make
sure you are aware of all applicable local laws
that may affect the use of electronic devices
while driving.

THE BRAKE COACH
Appears after the vehicle has come to
a stop. It coaches you to maximize the
amount of energy returned through
the regenerative braking system. The
percentage displayed indicates the
regenerative braking efficiency.
EV+ MODE
Learns your frequent destinations after two
to four weeks of use, allowing for more EV
driving as you approach them. For example,
when nearing your home, it should be easier
to stay in electric mode.
See the Information Displays chapter of
your Owner’s Manual for more details.
ECO CRUISE CONTROL
Saves vehicle energy by slowing down
acceleration compared to standard
cruise control. Your vehicle may relax its
acceleration temporarily when going uphill.
You can switch this feature on and off in the
Driver Assist section of the Settings menu.
EFFICIENCY LEAVES
The right vehicle information display
provides a visual representation of your
driving behavior. The leaves grow as driving
habits and efficiency improve.
THE BATTERY GAUGE
During Plug-in Power Mode,
a full battery fill represents
the total amount of energy
you can get from an external
charge (plugging your
vehicle in).
It is normal for your electric range
estimate to vary from charge to
charge due to changes in average
energy usage. Driving style, drive
route, extreme temperatures and
use of heat and air conditioning
affect your energy usage.
SILENT KEY START
When starting
your vehicle, you
may not hear your
engine because
your hybrid-
electric vehicle
includes silent key
start. This fuel-saving feature allows
your vehicle to be ready to drive
without requiring your gas engine
to be running. Look for the ‘ready
to drive’ indicator light
in your
instrument display. When the light
displays, you successfully started your
vehicle and it is ready to drive.

4. The charge port light ring flashes twice, and then pulses
slowly when charging.
5. When charging is complete, the light ring turns off.
Unlock the padlock* and remove it. Then press the coupler
button and remove the coupler from the charge port.
CHOOSE YOUR C-MAX ENERGI MODE
Your vehicle contains driver-selectable Electric
Vehicle (EV) modes controlled through the EV
button on the center of the instrument panel,
below the climate controls.
Choose to drive in electric-only mode for city driving, saving
your plug-in power for later or let the system adjust your power
mode to suit the current driving conditions.
» Auto EV: automatically selects high-voltage battery power
during the drive, staying in electric mode when possible
and running the engine when needed. After the plug-in
power depletes, this mode is the only one available.
» EV Now: puts your vehicle into an all-electric power
experience, after you charge your vehicle using
plug-in power.
» EV Later: provides gasoline-hybrid driving power,
and saves most of the high-voltage battery
plug-in power for future use when the driver
is ready to switch to Auto EV or EV Now modes.
To make the most of your C-MAX Energi and the electric
vehicle lifestyle, please visit www.PlugintoFord.com.
PLUG-IN POWER

cord, located in the floor compartment behind the driver’s seat.
This cord allows you to charge the battery using a standard,
120-volt, grounded, three-pronged household outlet. See your
Owner’s Manual for more details.
» For faster charge times, the available 240-volt charging
station provides a full charge in approximately 2.5 hours.
See your Dealer for more information.

on the map or a point of interest (POI).
The easiest way, however, is by voice.

1. Pull the voice control
.
When prompted, say “Destination
street address”.
2. The system asks you to say the
full address and then displays an
example on-screen.
3. You can then speak the address
naturally, such as: “One two three
Main Street, Anytown”.
You can also use the touchscreen to enter a
destination and narrow your choices by city
or street as you type.
You can choose from up to three different
types of routes:
» Fastest: Uses the fastest moving
roads possible.
» Shortest: Uses the shortest
distance possible.
» Eco (EcoRoute): Uses the most
fuel-efficient route.
CLIMATE
SYNC with MyFord Touch controls the
temperature, airflow direction, fan speed,
and activates other climate features
like heated front seats for you and your
passenger. To use voice commands to
operate climate, say a voice command like
“Climate temperature 72 degrees” and
MyFord Touch makes that adjustment.
Set Your Temperature

*if equipped

NOTE If you do not add new fuel during
an 18-month period, fuel freshness mode
consumes fuel until about 1 gallon
(3.8 liters) remains in the tank.
During Fuel Freshness Mode
» The information display screen
indicates that fuel freshness mode
is active.
» The vehicle runs only in hybrid mode.
EV Now is not available.
» Most of the plug-in power stores until
fuel freshness mode is complete.
NOTE EV Now resumes if less than
1 gallon (3.8 liters) of fuel is left in the tank.
NOTE In most cases, when the fuel level
is below 1/4 tank, refueling the vehicle ends
fuel freshness mode and EV Now becomes
available. Refueling after consuming a full
tank in fuel freshness mode also ends
the mode.
NOTE We recommend that you use
a fuel stabilizer if your vehicle consumes
less than a full tank of fuel during an
18-month period.
LOW ENGINE USE MODE
The feature automatically keeps the engine
oil quality in good condition when you
drive the vehicle with limited engine use.
When you start the vehicle in Low Engine
Use mode, a message appears in the
information display.
FUEL FRESHNESS MODE
This feature helps keep the fuel system
functional and the fuel in your tank fresh.
If you operate your vehicle mainly in plug-in
power mode using electricity from plugging
in without refueling, the gasoline in your
tank eventually becomes old. Old fuel can
damage the engine and fuel system.
To prevent the fuel from becoming old, your
vehicle automatically enters fuel freshness
mode. In fuel freshness mode, your vehicle
operates in hybrid mode, causing the
gasoline engine to run in order to consume
the fuel in the fuel tank.
18 19
When the vehicle is in Low Engine Use
mode, the vehicle runs the engine as
necessary. That means if you select the EV
Now
mode when the vehicle is in the Low
Engine Use mode, EV Now mode suspends
for as long as you are in Low Engine Use
mode. You can suspend the Low Engine
Use mode by getting regular oil changes
and resetting the oil life monitoring system.
TIRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM
Your vehicle shows a low tire pressure
warning light in your information
display when one or more of your tires
are significantly under-inflated. If this
happens, stop and check your tires as soon
as possible. Inflate them to the proper
pressure. Refer to the Inflating Your Tires
section in the Wheels and Tires chapter of
your Owner’s Manual for more information.
TIRE MOBILITY KIT
C-MAX Energi includes a tire mobility kit
that is under the front passenger seat. It
consists of an air compressor to reinflate
the tire and a sealing compound in a
canister that seals most punctures caused
by nails or similar objects. Refer to the
Wheels and Tires chapter of your Owner’s
Manual for more details.
essential
information
FUEL TANK CAPACITY
AND FUEL INFO
C-MAX Energi has a 14.0 gallon (53L)
fuel tank capacity, in addition to its
high-voltage battery system.
Use only “Regular” UNLEADED fuel
with an octane rating of 87 or higher,
with no more than 15% ethanol.
Do not use ethanol
E20 - E85(E85),
diesel, fuel-methanol, leaded fuel or
any other fuel because it could
damage or impair the emission
control system.
REFUELING
Your vehicle features a locking
fuel door and an auto-sealing
feature that locks the fuel tank
refueling valve.
1. Put your vehicle into park (P) and switch
off the ignition.
2. Press the button
located on the center
console. Pressing this button unlocks the
fuel tank refueling valve, allowing the fuel
filler door to open so you can insert the
fuel filler nozzle into the fuel inlet.
3. Wait up to 15 seconds
before opening the fuel
filler door. During this
time, a Fuel Door Opening
message appears in
the Information display.
4. When the door opens, a
Fuel Door Open message appears in the
information display, indicating that the
vehicle is ready for refuelling. The vehicle
remains ready to refuel for approximately
20 minutes. If you need more than 20
minutes, you need to press the refueling
button again. You may experience the
fuel pump shutting off if the refuel button
is not pressed again.
5. Open the fuel filler door.
6. Slowly insert the fuel filler nozzle fully
into the fuel system, and leave the nozzle
fully inserted until you are done pumping.
Hold the handle higher during insertion
for easier access.
7. After you are done pumping fuel, slowly
remove the fuel filler nozzle. Allow
approximately 5–10 seconds after
pumping fuel before removing the fuel
filler nozzle. This allows residual fuel to
drain back into the fuel tank and not spill
onto the vehicle.
NOTE When refilling with a portable
container, use only the funnel that comes
with your vehicle. Do not use aftermarket
funnels as they do not work with the
Easy Fuel
® system and may cause damage.
You can purchase extra funnels from your
authorized dealer.
