battery FORD FOCUS ELECTRIC 2012 3.G User Guide

•Budget Text View: contains basic information to help you reach your
next charging destination or to achieve your vehicle range estimate.
Charge pt: is the distance remaining to the next charge point you
identified using the Navigation system.
Surplus: is the available range beyond your identified charge point
(current Range Estimate shown on Battery Gauge minus Charge pt
distance).
If you don’t enter a charge point, you will see:
Budget: is set to the Range Estimate at the point of departure. This
will count down with the odometer.
Status: is your performance against your Budget (current Range
Estimate shown on Battery Gauge minus Budget distance). A positive
Status indicates you are using less energy than typical and have
extended your Range Estimate by the distance shown.
• Budget view: helps you manage your energy use.
Your current Energy Use is the white line that moves up and down in
the Budget Gauge. A higher line means you are using more energy
(lower is better). Your energy use includes input from the accelerator
pedal as well as the accessories, such as Climate Control.
The Budget is shown by the blue cup shape around the Budget Gauge.
As long as your current Energy Use is within the cup, you are staying
within your budget. Your Budget represents the maximum energy
usage you can maintain in order to achieve your vehicle range
estimate, or reach your intended charge point. Driving for extended
periods outside of the Budget Cup reduces your budget and could put
you at risk of not reaching your intended charge point.
• Range view: shows your range relative to your charge point as well as
performance to your budget.
A blue charge point icon means you have a Surplus. If an E appears to
the left of an amber charge point icon, then you are projected to run
out of charge prior to reaching your charge point.
Current performance to your budget is represented by the glow of the car
icon: more Blue = better performance to budget, more Amber = worse.
The optional Surplus Graphic displays available range beyond your
charge point.
If you didn’t enter your charge point through the Navigation system,
your budget will be set to the range estimate at the start of your trip.
The gauge will show your estimated distance to E (empty) along with
your current performance to budget. The optional Surplus Graphic is
not available in this case.

Required Equipment
1. Any portable music player designed to be used with headphones
2. An audio extension cable with stereo male 1/8 in. (3.5 mm)
connectors at each end
Using the Auxiliary Input Jack
WARNING:For safety reasons, do not connect or adjust the
settings on your portable music player while the vehicle is
moving.
WARNING: Store the portable music player in a secure location,
such as the center console or the glove box, when the vehicle is
in motion. Hard objects may become projectiles in a collision or sudden
stop, which may increase the risk of serious injury. The audio extension
cable must be long enough to allow the portable music player to be
safely stored while the vehicle is in motion.
1. Begin with the vehicle parked and the radio turned off.
2. Ensure that the battery in your portable music player is new or fully charged and that the device is turned off.
3. Attach one end of the audio extension cable to the headphone output of your player and the other end of the audio extension cable to the
AIJ in your vehicle.
4. Turn the radio on, using either a tuned FM station or a CD loaded into the system. Adjust the volume to a comfortable listening level.
5. Turn the portable music player on and adjust the volume to 1/2 the volume.
6. Press AUX on the vehicle radio repeatedly until LINE, LINE IN or SYNC LINE IN appears in the display. You should hear audio from
your portable music player although it may be low.

ACCESSING AND ADJUSTING MODES THROUGH YOUR
INFOTAINMENT DISPLAY
The infotainment display (A) is located on the right side of your
instrument cluster. It allows you to view and make minor adjustments to
active modes without taking your hands off the wheel. For example:
•In entertainment mode, you can view what is now playing, change the
audio source, select presets and make some adjustments.
• In phone mode, you can accept or reject an incoming call.
• In navigation mode (if equipped), you can view the current route or
activate a route.
• In surplus mode, surplus (or status) is represented by either
butterflies or a gauge. The number of butterflies matches the current
surplus or status distance up to a maximum of sixteen butterflies. The
more efficiently you drive, the more butterflies (or higher status)
display, and vice versa. See Message centerin theInstrument Cluster
chapter for more information.
When you enter or turn off the vehicle, you have the opportunity to view
charging status, charge start and end times as well as the charging mode.
You can also switch your charging mode between Value Charge and
Charge Now. See Convenience charging with MyFord mobile in the
High Voltage Battery chapter.

Setting 911 Assist OnPress the information button > Apps > 911 Assist, then select
ON.
You can also access 911 Assist by:
• Pressing the Menu icon > Settings > Phone > 911 Assist, or
• Pressing the Menu icon > Help > 911 Assist.
To Ensure that 911 Assist Works Properly
• SYNC must be powered and working properly at the time of the
incident and throughout feature activation and use.
• SYNC 911 Assist feature must be set on prior to the incident.
• A Bluetooth-enabled and compatible phone has to be paired and
connected to SYNC.
• A connected Bluetooth-enabled phone must have the ability to make
and maintain an outgoing call at the time of the incident.
• A connected Bluetooth-enabled phone must have adequate network
coverage, battery power and signal strength.
• The vehicle must have battery power and be located in the U.S.,
Canada or in a territory in which 911 is the emergency number.
In the Event of a Crash
Not all crashes deploy an airbag or activate the fuel pump shut-off
(which would activate 911 Assist); however, if 911 Assist is triggered,
SYNC tries to contact emergency services. If a connected phone is
damaged or loses connection to SYNC, SYNC searches for, and tries to
connect to, any available previously paired phone and tries to make the
call to 911.
Before making the call:
• SYNC provides a short window of time (about 10 seconds) to cancel
the call. Failure to cancel the call results in SYNC attempting to dial
911.
• SYNC says the following, or a similar message: “SYNC will attempt to
call 911, to cancel the call, press Cancel on your screen or press and
hold the phone button on your steering wheel.”
If the call is not cancelled and a successful call is made, a prerecorded
message is played for the 911 operator, then the occupant(s) in the
vehicle is able to talk with the operator. Be prepared to provide your
name, phone number and location immediately, because not all 911
systems are capable of receiving this information electronically.

911 Assist Privacy Notice
Once 911 Assist is set on, it may disclose to emergency services that the
vehicle has been in a crash involving the deployment of an airbag or
activation of the fuel pump shut-off. Certain versions or updates to 911
Assist may also be capable of electronically or verbally disclosing to 911
operators the vehicle location, and/or other details about the vehicle or
crash to assist 911 operators to provide the most appropriate emergency
services. If you do not want to disclose this information, do not turn the
feature on.

airflow to the back seats.
• Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of
the windshield.
• To improve the A/C cool down, drive with the windows open for
approximately 2–3 minutes after starting the vehicle or until the
vehicle has “aired out.”
• The A/C system is used to cool both the interior of the vehicle and the
high voltage battery. In hot outside temperatures, interior cooling may
be temporarily reduced if the high voltage battery requires cooling.
Keep the vehicle plugged in (when possible) to allow automatic
battery cooling in high temperature conditions.
• Interior heating is done by an electrical heater. Set the fan at a lower
speed to get a warmer outlet temperature on cold days.
• A small amount of air may be felt from the floor vent regardless of the
air distribution setting that is selected.
Maximum Cooling Performance
1. Press MAX A/C. The system defaults to single zone operation and the
coldest temperature setting. LO appears in the display.
