•
How fast the vehicle was traveling;
and
• Where the driver was positioning
the steering wheel.
This data can help provide a better
understanding of the circumstances in
which crashes and injuries occur.
Note: Event data recorder data is
recorded by your vehicle only if a
non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data
is recorded by the event data recorder
under normal driving conditions and no
personal data or information (e.g., name,
gender, age, and crash location) is
recorded (see limitations regarding 911
Assist and Traffic, directions and
Information privacy below). However,
parties, such as law enforcement, could
combine the event data recorder data
with the type of personally identifying
data routinely acquired during a crash
investigation.
To read data recorded by an event data
recorder, special equipment is required,
and access to the vehicle or the event
data recorder is needed. In addition to
the vehicle manufacturer, other
parties, such as law enforcement, that
have such special equipment, can read
the information if they have access to
the vehicle or the event data recorder.
Ford Motor Company and Ford of
Canada do not access event data
recorder information without obtaining
consent, unless pursuant to court order
or where required by law enforcement,
other government authorities or other
third parties acting with lawful
authority. Other parties may seek to
access the information independently
of Ford Motor Company and Ford of
Canada. Note:
Including to the extent that any
law pertaining to Event Data Recorders
applies to SYNC or its features, please
note the following: Once 911 Assist (if
equipped) is enabled (set ON), 911 Assist
may, through any paired and connected
cell phone, disclose to emergency
services that the vehicle has been in a
crash involving the deployment of an
airbag or, in certain vehicles, the
activation of the fuel pump shut-off.
Certain versions or updates to 911 Assist
may also be capable of being used to
electronically or verbally provide to 911
operators the vehicle location (such as
latitude and longitude), and/or other
details about the vehicle or crash or
personal information about the
occupants to assist 911 operators to
provide the most appropriate emergency
services. If you do not want to disclose
this information, do not activate the 911
Assist feature. See SYNC™ (page 264).
Additionally, when you connect to
Traffic, Directions and Information (if
equipped, U.S. only), the service uses
GPS technology and advanced vehicle
sensors to collect the vehicle ’s current
location, travel direction, and speed
(“ vehicle travel information ”), only to
help provide you with the directions,
traffic reports, or business searches
that you request. If you do not want
Ford or its vendors to receive this
information, do not activate the
service. For more information, see
Traffic, Directions and Information,
Terms and Conditions. See
SYNC™
(page 264).

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
MyKey allows you to program keys with
restricted driving modes to promote good
driving habits. All but one of the keys
programmed to the vehicle can be
activated with these restricted modes.
Any keys that have not been programmed
are referred to as administrator keys or
admin keys. These can be used to:
•
Create a MyKey.
• Program configurable MyKey settings.
• Clear all MyKey features.
When you have created a MyKey, you can
access the following information using the
information display:
• How many admin keys and MyKeys are
programmed to your vehicle.
• The total distance your vehicle has
traveled using any MyKey.
Note: All MyKeys are programmed to the
same settings. You cannot program them
individually.
Note: For vehicles with keyless start, when
both a MyKey transmitter and an admin
transmitter are present, the admin
transmitter will be recognized by the vehicle
to start the engine.
Non-configurable Settings
The following settings cannot be changed
by an admin key user:
• Belt-minder. You cannot disable this
feature. The audio system will mute
when the safety belts are not fastened.
• Early low fuel warning. The low-fuel
warning activates earlier, giving the
MyKey user more time to refuel. •
Driver assist features, if equipped on
your vehicle, are forced on: parking aid,
blind spot information system (BLIS)
with cross traffic alert, lane departure
warning and forward collision warning
system.
• Satellite radio adult content
restrictions.
Configurable Settings
With an admin key, you can configure
certain MyKey settings when you first
create a MyKey and before you recycle the
key or restart the vehicle. You can also
change the settings afterward with an
admin key:
• Vehicle speed limits can be set.
Warnings will be shown in the display
followed by an audible tone when your
vehicle reaches the set speed. You
cannot override the set speed by fully
depressing the accelerator pedal.
• Vehicle speed minders. Once you select
a speed, it will be shown in the display
followed by a tone when the set vehicle
speed is exceeded.
• Audio system maximum volume of
45%. A message will be shown in the
display when you attempt to exceed
the limited volume. Also, the speed
sensitive compensated volume
(automatic volume control) feature
will be disabled.
• Always on setting. When this is
selected you will not be able to disable
AdvanceTrac, 911 Assist or the do not
disturb feature (if your vehicle is
equipped with these features).
CREATING A MYKEY
Use the information display to create a
MyKey.

Note:
Do not clean the housing or glass of
any mirror with harsh abrasives, fuel or other
petroleum or ammonia-based cleaning
products.
You can adjust the interior mirror to your
preference. Some mirrors also have a
second pivot point. This lets you move the
mirror head up or down and from side to
side.
Pull the tab below the mirror toward you
to reduce glare at night.
Auto-Dimming Mirror (If Equipped)
Note: Do not block the sensors on the front
and back of the mirror. Mirror performance
may be affected. A rear center passenger or
raised rear center head restraint may also
block light from reaching the sensor.
The mirror will dim automatically to reduce
glare when bright lights are detected from
behind your vehicle. It will automatically
return to normal reflection when you select
reverse gear to make sure you have a clear
view when backing up.
MOONROOF
(If Equipped) WARNINGS
Do not let children play with the
moonroof or leave them unattended
in the vehicle. They may seriously
hurt themselves. When closing the moonroof, you
should verify that it is free of
obstructions and make sure that
children and pets are not in the proximity
of the roof opening. The moonroof controls are located on the
overhead console. Opening and Closing the Moonroof
Press and release the rear of the
SLIDE
control to open the moonroof. The sliding
shade will automatically open, if closed,
while the moonroof opens.
Press and hold the front of the
SLIDE
control to close the moonroof.
Note: The sliding shade will not
automatically close.
Moonroof Sliding Shade
You can manually open or close the sliding
shade when the moonroof is closed. Slide
the shade backward or forward to open or
close it.
Venting the Moonroof
Press and hold the rear of the TILT control
to vent the moonroof.
Press and hold the front of the
TILT
control to close the moonroof.

Engine Coolant Temperature
Gauge
Displays the temperature of the engine
coolant. At normal operating temperature
the indicator will remain in the center
section.
Fuel Gauge
Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge will
indicate approximately how much fuel is
left in the fuel tank. The fuel gauge may
vary slightly when your vehicle is moving
or on a gradient. The arrow adjacent to the
fuel pump symbol indicates on which side
of your vehicle the fuel filler door is located.
WARNING LAMPS AND
INDICATORS - 1.6L DURATEC-
16V TI-VCT (SIGMA)/1.0L
ECOBOOST™
The following warning lamps and
indicators alert you to a vehicle condition
that may become serious. Some lamps will
illuminate when you start your vehicle to
make sure they work. If any lamps remain
on after starting your vehicle, refer to the
respective system warning lamp for further
information.
Note:
Some warning indicators appear in
the information display and function the
same as a warning lamp but do not
illuminate when you start your vehicle. Anti-lock Braking System Warning
Lamp If it illuminates when you are
driving, this indicates a
malfunction.
You will continue to have the normal
braking system (without anti-lock braking
system) unless the brake system warning
lamp is also illuminated.
Have your vehicle checked by an
authorized dealer.
Brake System Warning Lamp It illuminates when you engage
the parking brake and the
ignition is on. If it illuminates
when your vehicle is moving, make sure the
parking brake is disengaged. If the parking
brake is disengaged, this indicates low
brake fluid level or a brake system fault.
Have your vehicle checked immediately by
an authorized dealer. WARNING
Driving your vehicle with the warning
lamp on is dangerous. A significant
decrease in braking performance
may occur. It will take you longer to stop
your vehicle. Have your vehicle checked by
your authorized dealer immediately. Driving
extended distances with the parking brake
engaged can cause brake failure and the
risk of personal injury. Cruise Control Indicator
It will illuminate when you switch
this feature on. See Using
Cruise Control (page 139).

Page 81 of 423

Information Indicator
It will illuminate when a new
message is stored in the
information and entertainment
display. See Information Messages
(page 87).
Low Fuel Level Warning Lamp If it illuminates, refuel as soon as
possible.
Low Tire Pressure Warning It will illuminate when your tire
pressure is low. If the lamp
remains on with the engine
running or when driving, check
your tire pressure as soon as possible.
It will also illuminate momentarily when
you switch the ignition on to confirm the
lamp is functional. If it does not illuminate
when you switch the ignition on, or begins
to flash at any time, have your vehicle
checked by an authorized dealer.
Safety Belt Minder Warning Lamp It will illuminate and a chime will
sound to remind you to fasten
your safety belt. See
Safety
Belt Minder (page 30).
Service Engine Soon If the service engine soon
indicator light stays illuminated
after the engine is started, it
indicates that the On-Board Diagnostics
(OBD-II) system has detected a
malfunction of the vehicle emissions
control system. Refer to On-Board
Diagnostics (OBD-II) in the Fuel and
Refueling chapter for more information
about having your vehicle serviced. See
Emission Control System
(page 119). If the light is blinking, engine misfire is
occurring which could damage your
catalytic converter. Drive in a moderate
fashion (avoid heavy acceleration and
deceleration) and have your vehicle
serviced immediately.
WARNING
Under engine misfire conditions,
excessive exhaust temperatures
could damage the catalytic
converter, the fuel system, interior floor
coverings or other vehicle components,
possibly causing a fire. Have an authorized
dealer service your vehicle immediately. The service engine soon indicator light
illuminates when the ignition is first turned
on prior to engine start to check the bulb
and to indicate whether the vehicle is ready
for Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) testing.
Normally, the service engine soon light will
stay on until the engine is cranked, then
turn itself off if no malfunctions are
present. However, if after 15 seconds the
service engine soon light blinks eight times,
it means that the vehicle is not ready for
I/M testing. See
Emission Control
System (page 119).
Shift Indicator It will illuminate to inform you
that shifting to a higher gear may
give better fuel economy and
lower CO2 emissions. It will not illuminate
during periods of high acceleration, braking
or when the clutch pedal is pressed.
