Courtesy Wipe Feature
One extra wipe will happen a few seconds after washing the front
window to clear any water that is dripping down from the top of the
windshield caused by the washing.
Note:Do not operate the washer when the washer reservoir is empty.
This may cause the washer pump to overheat. Check the washer fluid
level frequently. Do not operate the wipers when the windshield is dry.
This may scratch the glass, damage the wiper blades and cause the wiper
motor to burn out. Before operating the wiper on a dry windshield,
always use the windshield washer. In freezing weather, be sure the wiper
blades are not frozen to the windshield before operating the wipers.

The parking lamps will remain on and the vehicle will run for 5, 10, or
15 minutes, depending on the setting. Refer to theMessage centerin the
Instrument Clusterchapter to select the duration of the remote start
system.
Extending the Vehicle Run Time
Repeat Steps 1 and 2 with the vehicle still running to extend the run
time for another remote start duration. If you programmed the duration
to last 10 minutes, the second 10 minutes will be added. For example, if
the vehicle had been running from the first remote start for five minutes,
the vehicle will continue to run now for a total of 20 minutes. You can
only extend the remote start once.
Wait at least five seconds before remote starting after a vehicle
shutdown. Only two remote starts are allowed.
The vehicle must be started without remote start then switched back off
or allow one hour to pass before using remote start again if additional
remote starts are desired.
Turning the Vehicle Off After Remote Starting
Press the button once. The parking lamps will turn off.
You may have to be closer to the vehicle than when starting due to
ground reflection and the added noise of the running vehicle.
You can disable or enable the remote start system through the message
center. Refer to theInstrument Clusterchapter.
SECURILOCKPASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
SecuriLockpassive anti-theft system is an vehicle immobilization
system. This system is designed to help prevent the vehicle from being
started unless anintelligent access keys programmed to your
vehicleis used. The use of the wrong type of coded key may lead to a
“no-start” condition. The message center will display that no key is
detected.
If you are unable to start the vehicle with a correctly coded key, this
indicates a malfunction.
Your vehicle comes with two intelligent access keys; additional ones may
be purchased from your authorized dealer. The authorized dealer can
program your spare transmitters.
Note:The SecuriLockpassive anti-theft system is not compatible with
non-Ford aftermarket remote start systems. Use of these systems may
result in vehicle starting problems and a loss of security protection.

Push Button Start System
The power button is located on the
instrument panel to the right of the
steering wheel.
Starting the Vehicle
Note:To start your vehicle, your intelligent access key (IA key) must be
present inside the vehicle.
1. Press the power button (for any length of time) while applying the
brake pedal.
2. Release the parking brake, apply the brake, shift into gear and drive.
There may be areas inside your vehicle where the IA key is not detected.
If the message KEY NOT DETECTED appears on your multifunction
display when you press the power button, it may be necessary to move
your IA key to another area within the vehicle. The IA key may not be
detected near the roof (between the driver or passenger sun visor and
the roof, or in the overhead console area) or in the extreme corners of
the rear package tray, near your audio speakers. It is not recommended
that you stow the IA key in these locations. If you move the IA key to a
location where it has been detected before and you still see the KEY
NOT DETECTED message, your IA key’s battery may be low or you may
be in an area with excessive radio frequency interference. If this occurs,
you can use the backup method to start your vehicle.

Switching the Vehicle Off When Not in P (Park)
It is recommended that you shift into the P (Park) position before
switching your vehicle off. If you switch your vehicle off with the shifter
in any position other than P (Park), the message SHIFT TO PARK is
displayed in the multifunction display. If the vehicle is left in this state,
your key in ignition chime activates when the driver door is opened, and
you may drain your vehicle’s battery. In order to avoid draining your
battery, it is recommended that you always shift to P (Park) before or
immediately after switching your vehicle off.
Absence of the Intelligent Access Key
Once the vehicle has started, the vehicle remains running until being
turned off by the power button, even if the IA key is no longer found in
the vehicle. Whenever a door is opened and then closed while the
vehicle is running, the system searches for an IA key inside the vehicle
and the multifunction display reads KEY OUTSIDE CAR if the IA key is
no longer present. This message is a reminder that someone else in the
vehicle may have taken the IA key when exiting the vehicle. If the IA key
is no longer present in the vehicle, you cannot start your vehicle outside
of the Fast Restart time (seeFast restartabove). It is important to be
aware of where your IA key is located in the vehicle, to avoid becoming
stranded without an IA key.
BRAKES
Occasional brake noise is normal. If a metal-to-metal, continuous grinding
or continuous squeal sound is present, the brake linings may be worn-out
and should be inspected by an authorized dealer. If the vehicle has
continuous vibration or shudder in the steering wheel while braking, the
vehicle should be inspected by an authorized dealer.
Refer toWarning lights and indicatorsin theInstrument
Clusterchapter for information on the brake system warning
light.
Under normal operating conditions, brake dust may accumulate on the
wheels. Some brake dust is inevitable as brakes wear and does not
contribute to brake noise. The use of modern friction materials with
emphasis on improved performance and environmental considerations
can lead to more dust than in the past. Brake dust can be cleaned by
weekly washing with soapy water and a soft sponge. Heavier deposits can
be removed with MotorcraftWheel and Tire Cleaner. See theCleaning
chapter for more information.

During ESC events, the stability control light in the instrument cluster
will flash.
Certain adverse driving maneuvers may activate the ESC system, which
include but are not limited to:
•Taking a turn too fast
•Maneuvering quickly to avoid an accident, pedestrian or obstacle
•Driving over a patch of ice or other slippery surfaces
•Changing lanes on a snow-rutted road
•Entering a snow-free road from a snow-covered side street, or vice
versa
•Entering a paved road from a gravel road, or vice versa
Switching off traction control
If the vehicle is stuck in snow, mud or sand, and seems to lose power,
switching off the traction control feature of the AdvanceTracsystem
may be beneficial because the wheels are allowed to spin. This will
restore full power and will enhance momentum through the obstacle.
The traction control system can be turned off through the message
center. SeeMessage centerin theInstrument Clusterchapter for more
information. If you switch off the traction control, the stability control off
light will illuminate steadily. Selecting traction control on will turn off the
stability control off light.
Steering
Your vehicle is equipped with an Electric Power Steering (EPS) system.
There is no fluid reservoir to check or fill.
If your vehicle loses electrical power while you are driving (or if the
ignition is turned off), you can steer the vehicle manually, but it takes
more effort. Under extreme usage conditions, the steering effort may
increase. This occurs to prevent overheating and permanent damage to
your steering system. If this should occur, you will neither lose the ability
to steer the vehicle manually nor will it cause permanent damage.
Typical steering and driving maneuvers will allow the system to cool and
steering assist will return to normal.
The EPS system has diagnostic checks that continuously monitor the
EPS system to ensure proper operation. When a system error is
detected, the following message STEERING ASSIST FAULT SERVICE
REQUIRED, STEERING FAULT SERVICE NOW, STEERING LOSS STOP
SAFELY may display in the multifunction display. Refer to theMessage
centerin theInstrument Clusterchapter for more information.
