When refueling:
1. Put your vehicle in park (P) and switch off your ignition.
2. Press the center-rear edge of the fuel filler door and
release to open.

Wait five to ten seconds after pumping fuel before
removing the fuel filler nozzle.
4. Slowly remove the fuel filler nozzle.
5. Close the fuel filler door by pressing on its center-rear edge. The fuel door latches closed.
When using a portable fuel container, slowly insert the fuel funnel (located in the right spare rear
storage tray and pour the fuel into the funnel.
Note: Do not use aftermarket funnels as they do not work with the Easy Fuel system and may
cause damage. Properly clean the funnel or dispose of it properly after each use.
FUEL TANK CAPACITY/FUEL INFO
Your vehicle has an 18.6 gallon (70.4L) fuel tank capacity. We recommend regular unleaded gasoline
with a pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87. We do not recommend fuels with an octane rating below
87. For vehicles with EcoBoost engines or to provide improved performance, we recommend premium
fuel for severe duty usage such as trailer tow. Do not use E85 fuels because your vehicle was not
designed to run on fuels with more than 15% ethanol.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM
Your vehicle displays a low tire pressure warning light in your instrument cluster if 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 Wheels and Tires chapter of your Owner’s
Manual for more information.
ESSENTIAL INFORMATIONFLEXESSENTIAL INFORMATION
LOCATION OF SPARE TIRE AND TOOLS
Your spare tire and tools are beneath the third-row seats
under the floor panel. You must unstow the seats to access.
We designed the spare tire for emergency use only and
strongly advise you to replace it as soon as possible.
For complete details on changing your tire, refer to the
Wheels and Tires chapter of your Owner’s Manual.
TRAILER TOW *
Before you tow, refer to your Owner’s Manual for complete
information on weight, details and limitations, as well
as safety information and the proper equipment to use
while towing.
Note: Do not tow with the mini spare tire installed
or exceed the GVWR or the GAWR specified on the
Safety Compliance Certification Label.
TRAILER SWAY CONTROL *
This system helps to reduce trailer sway while towing by
applying brake force to individual wheels and, if necessary,
reducing engine power. If the trailer does begin to sway,
Trailer Sway Reduce Speed appears in the information
display. Safely pull to the side of the road and check that
your equipment is properly secured.
TOWING YOUR FLEX
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.
REAR WINDOW BUFFETING
You may hear a pulsing noise when just one of the windows
is open. Lower the opposite window slightly to reduce
this noise.
Press the control to open the window. Lift the control to
close the window.
POST-CRASH ALERT SYSTEM ™
The system flashes the direction indicator lamps and sounds
the horn (intermittently) in the event of a serious impact that
deploys an airbag equipped on your vehicle.
The horn and lamps turn off when:
- You press the hazard control button.
- You press the panic button on the remote entry transmitter.
- Your vehicle runs out of power.
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.
