FORD FOCUS ELECTRIC 2012 3.G Owners Manual

Rear camera delay
After shifting out of R (Reverse) and into any gear other than P (Park),
the image will remain until the vehicle speed reaches five mph (8 km/h).
This will only occur if the rear camera delay feature is on, or until any
radio button is selected.
The default setting for the rear camera delay is OFF. To turn this feature
on or off when the vehicle is not in R (Reverse), do the following:
1. Select Menu
2. Select Vehicle
3. Select Rear View Camera
The rear camera delay options are ON and OFF.
The camera lens for the reverse camera system is located on the liftgate.
Keep the lens clean so the video image remains clear and undistorted.
Clean the lens with a soft, lint-free cloth and non-abrasive cleaner.
When towing, the reverse camera system will only see what is being
towed behind the vehicle. This might not provide adequate coverage as it
usually provides in normal operation and some objects might not be
seen.
Active guidelines, fixed guidelines, visual park aid alert and manual zoom
features are only available when the vehicle is in R (Reverse).
If the vehicle is in R (Reverse) and the liftgate is ajar, no rear video
camera features will be displayed. A message will be displayed on the
touchscreen if the liftgate is ajar.
After activating or deactivating a rear video camera feature, the
touchscreen will show a preview of the feature(s) selected.
Note:If the camera system image is not clear or seems distorted, it may
be covered with water droplets, snow, mud or any other substance. If
this occurs, clean the camera lens before using the camera system.
WARNING: The rearview camera system is a reverse aid
supplement device that still requires the driver to use it in
conjunction with the rearview mirror and the side mirrors for maximum
coverage.

WARNING:Objects that are close to either corner of the
bumper or under the bumper, might not be seen on the screen
due to the limited coverage of the camera system.
WARNING: Backup as slow as possible since higher speeds
might limit your reaction time to stop the vehicle.
WARNING: When manual zoom is enabled (Level 1, Level 2 or
Level 3), the full area behind the vehicle will not be shown. Be
aware of your surroundings when using the manual zoom feature.
WARNING: Use caution when using the rear video camera and
the liftgate is ajar. If the liftgate is ajar, the camera will be out of
position and the video image may be incorrect. All guidelines (if
enabled) have been removed when the liftgate is ajar.
WARNING: Use caution when turning ON or OFF camera
features while in R (Reverse). Make sure the vehicle is not
moving.
If the back end of the vehicle is hit or damaged, then check with your
authorized dealer to have your rear video system checked for proper
coverage and operation.
Night time and dark area use
At night time or in dark areas, the camera system relies on the reverse
lamp lighting to produce an image. Therefore, it is necessary that both
reverse lamps are operating in order to get a clear image in the dark. If
either of the lamps are not operating, stop using the camera system, at
least in the dark, until the lamp(s) are replaced and functioning.
Servicing
• If the image comes on while the vehicle is not in R (Reverse), have
the system inspected by your authorized dealer.
• If the image is not clear, check if anything is covering the lens such as
dirt, mud, ice, snow, etc. If the image is still not clear after cleaning,
have your system inspected by your authorized dealer.

BLIND SPOT MIRRORS
Blind spot mirrors have an integrated convex spotter mirror built into
the upper outboard corner of the outside mirrors. They are designed to
assist the driver by increasing visibility along the side of the vehicle. For
more information on your side view mirrors, refer toExterior mirrorsin
the Driver Controls chapter.
Driving with blind spot mirrors
Before a lane change, check the
main mirror first, then check the
blind spot mirror. If no vehicles are
present in the blind spot mirror and
the traffic in the adjacent lane is at
a safe distance, signal that you are
going to change lanes. Glance over
your shoulder to verify traffic is
clear, and carefully change lanes.
When the approaching vehicle is at
a distance, its image is small and
near the inboard edge of the main
mirror. As the vehicle approaches,
the image becomes larger and
begins to move outboard across the
main mirror (1). As the vehicle
approaches its image will transition
from the main mirror and begin to
appear in the blind spot mirror (2).
As the vehicle leaves the blind spot
mirror it will transition to the driver’s peripheral field of view (3).
WARNING: Objects in the blind spot mirror are closer than they
appear.

DRIVING THROUGH WATER
Note:Driving through deep water may allow water into the transmission
and motor causing internal damage. Have the fluid checked and, if water
is found, replace the fluid.
Do not drive quickly through standing water, especially if the depth is
unknown. Traction or brake capability may be limited and if enough
water is present, the vehicle may stall.
If driving through deep or standing
water is unavoidable , proceed very
slowly. Never drive through water
that is higher than the bottom of
the wheel rims.
Once through the water, always try the brakes. Wet brakes do not stop
the vehicle as effectively as dry brakes. Drying can be improved by
moving your vehicle slowly while applying light pressure on the brake
pedal.

HIGH-VOLTAGE SHUTOFF
In the event of a crash:
•Take the same actions as you would take in a crash involving a
gasoline-powered vehicle — exit the vehicle safely or await the
assistance of an emergency responder if they are unable to get out on
their own, move a safe distance away from the vehicle, and notify the
authorities of the crash.
• If possible, inform emergency responders that the vehicle is electric
powered.
• Vehicle owners should not store a severely damaged vehicle in a
garage or near other vehicles.
The high-voltage shutoff operation shuts off power from the high voltage
battery after a collision, or if your vehicle receives a substantial physical
jolt.
To reactivate the vehicle after either event perform the following steps:
1. Press the POWER START/STOP button to power the vehicle on.
2. Press the POWER START/STOP button to power the vehicle off.
3. Press the POWER START/STOP button to power the vehicle on again.
Note: After completing this procedure the vehicle will detect if the
electrical system is safe and reactivate automatically. Once your vehicle
determines the electrical system safe you can start your vehicle as you
would normally by pressing the brake pedal in combination with the
POWER START/STOP button.
