FUNCTION
1617
FRONT AND REAR
PARKING AIDS*
The front sensors are active when the
transmission is in any position other than park (P). When your vehicle approaches an object, a warning tone sounds. When your vehicle moves closer to an object, the warning tone repeat rate increases.
The rear sensors are active only when the transmission is in reverse (R). As your vehicle moves closer to the obstacle, the rate of the audible warning increases.
SIDE SENSING SYSTEM* The side sensing system uses the front and rear side sensors to detect and map obstacles that are near to the sides of your vehicle. The side sensors are active when the transmission is in any position other than park (P). As the object comes closer to the side of your vehicle, the rate of the audible warning increases.

Note: Visibility aids do not replace the need to watch where the vehicle is moving. Refer to your Owner’s Manual for safety information, more
details and limitations.
LANE KEEPING SYSTEM*This system notifies you to stay in your
lane through the steering system and the
instrument cluster display when the front

Select from three notification modes within
your information display:
Alert: Provides a steering wheel vibration.
Aid: Provides an assistance steering torque
input toward the lane center.
Alert + Aid: Provides an assistance steering
torque input toward the lane center. If your
vehicle continues drifting out of the lane,
the system provides a steering
wheel vibration.
Press the
button located on the left
steering wheel lever to switch the system
ON or OFF.

ESSENTIAL INFORMATION
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM Your vehicle illuminates a low tire pressure warning light in your
instrument cluster when one or more of your tires are significantly
under-inflated. You can use the left information display to view the
Tire Pressure On-demand screen. It displays your current individual
tire pressures.
Refer to the Tire Pressure Monitoring System section in the
Wheels and Tires chapter of your Owner’s Manual for
more information.
LOCATION OF SPARE TIRE AND TOOLS Your spare tire and tools are beneath the carpeted floor panel in
the rear of your vehicle. The spare tire is designed for emergency
use only and should be replaced as soon as possible. For complete
details on changing your tire, refer to the Wheels and Tires chapter
in your Owner’s Manual.
ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE Your new Ford vehicle comes with the assurance and support of
24-hour emergency roadside assistance.
To receive roadside assistance in the United States, call
1-800-241-3673. In Canada, call 1-800-665-2006.
COLLISION WARNING SYSTEM* This system alerts you of certain collision risks. The system’s
sensor detects your vehicle’s rapid approach to other vehicles
traveling in the same direction as your vehicle.
When your vehicle rapidly approaches another vehicle, a red
warning light flashes and a tone sounds. The brake support
system assists you in reducing any collision speed by
pre-charging the brakes. If the risk of collision continues to
increase after the audio-visual warning, the brake support
prepares the brake system for rapid braking. The system does
not automatically activate the brakes, but if the brake pedal
is pressed even lightly, the brakes apply full stopping power.
TOWING YOUR VEHICLE Towing your vehicle behind an RV or any other vehicle may
be limited. Refer to Towing the Vehicle on Four Wheels
in the Towing chapter of your Owner’s Manual.

EASY FUEL® SYSTEM
When Fueling Your Vehicle
1. Put the vehicle in park (P) and switch
the ignition off. Press the center-rear
edge of the fuel filler door and release
to open.
2. Slowly insert the fuel filler nozzle fully
into the fuel system to open both doors.
Leave the nozzle fully inserted until
you have stopped pumping fuel. Allow
about 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.
3. Slowly remove the fuel filler nozzle and
close the fuel filler door.
Note: When using a portable fuel
container, slowly insert the fuel funnel
(located in the spare wheel storage tray),
and pour the fuel into the funnel. Do not
use aftermarket funnels as they do not
work with the Easy Fuel system and may
cause damage. Properly clean or dispose
of the funnel after each use.
FUEL TANK CAPACITY
AND FUEL INFO
Depending on your drive type, your vehicle’s
fuel tank capacity can vary. All-wheel drive
vehicles have an 18.5 gallon (70.0L) fuel
tank capacity. Front-wheel drive vehicles
have an 18.4 gallon (69.5L) fuel tank
capacity. Use only “Regular” unleaded
gasoline with a minimum octane rating of
87 or higher. Do not use E85 fuels because
your vehicle was not designed to run on
fuels with more than 15% ethanol.
MYKEY®

driving restrictions in order to promote
good driving habits. You can program
things like speed restrictions, limited
volume levels and seatbelt reminders. For

chapter in your Owner’s Manual.
AUTO-START-STOP* The system helps reduce fuel consumption
by automatically shutting off and restarting
the engine when your vehicle is stopped.
The engine restarts automatically when
you release the brake pedal.
In some situations, your vehicle may restart
automatically, for example to maintain
interior comfort or recharge the battery.
