AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL
AUTO: Press the button to switch on automatic operation. Adjust to select the
desired temperature. Fan speed, air distribution, air conditioning operation, and
outside or recirculated air are automatically adjusted to heat or cool the vehicle
to maintain the desired temperature. You can also switch off dual zone mode
by pressing and holding the button for more than two seconds.
A
Fan speed control:
Adjusts the volume of air circulated in the vehicle.
B
Air distribution control: Adjust the control to turn airflow from the windshield,
instrument panel, or footwell vents on or off. You can distribute air through any
combination of these vents.
C
Climate control display: The display shows the set temperatures and the fan
speed.
D
Heated rear window:
Press the button to switch the heated rear window on
and off. See Heated Windows and Mirrors (page 96).
E
A/C:
Press the button to switch the air conditioning on or off. Air conditioning
cools your vehicle using outside air. To improve the time to reach a comfortable
temperature in hot weather, drive with the windows open until you feel cold air
through the air vents.
F
Recirculated air:
Press the button to switch between outside air and
recirculated air. The air currently in the passenger compartment recirculates.
This can reduce the time needed to cool the interior and reduce unwanted odors
from entering your vehicle.
G

MAX A/C: Press the button for maximum cooling. Recirculated air flows through
the instrument panel vents, air conditioning automatically turns on and the fan
automatically adjusts to the highest speed.
I
MAX Defrost: Press the button to switch on defrost. Outside air flows through
the windshield vents, air conditioning automatically turns on, and fan
automatically adjusts to the highest speed. You can also use this setting to
defrost and clear the windshield of a thin covering of ice. The heated rear window
also automatically turns on when you select maximum defrost.
J
Power: Press the button to switch the system on and off. When the system is
off, it prevents outside air from entering the vehicle.
K
Temperature Control You can set a temperature between
60°F
(15.5°C) and 85°F (29.5°C). If you select
LO, the system is set to permanent cooling.
If you select HI, the system is set to
permanent heating.
Note: If you select LO or HI, the system
does not maintain a stable temperature.
Single Zone Temperature Control
In this mode, the climate control system
links the temperature settings for both the
driver ’s side and passenger ’s side. If you
adjust the setting using the rotary control
on the driver ’s side, the system adjusts the
temperature to the same setting on the
passenger ’s side. To switch back to single zone control from
dual zone, press and hold AUTO for a few
seconds. The passenger
’s side temperature
switches to the driver ’s side temperature
setting.
Dual Zone Temperature Control
Select a temperature for the passenger ’s
side using the rotary control on the
passenger ’s side. Single zone temperature
control automatically switches off. The
temperature on the driver ’s side remains
unchanged. You can now adjust the driver ’s
side and passenger ’s side temperatures
independently. The display shows the
temperature settings for each side.
HINTS ON CONTROLLING THE
INTERIOR CLIMATE
General Hints
Note: Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to fog up.
Note: To reduce humidity build-up inside
your vehicle, do not drive with the system
switched off or with recirculated air always
switched on.
Note: Do not place objects under the front
seats as this may interfere with the airflow
to the rear seats.

Note:
Remove any snow, ice, or leaves from
the air intake area at the base of the
windshield.
Note: To improve air conditioning when
starting your vehicle, drive with the windows
slightly open for two to three minutes.
Recommended Settings for
Cooling
1. Press the AUTO button.
2. Adjust the temperature control to the desired setting.
Side Window Defogging in Cold
Weather
1. Select air distribution through the floor
vent.
2. Select air distribution through the panel
vent.
3. Select
A/C.
4. Adjust the temperature control to the desired setting.
5. Adjust the outer panel vents toward the side windows.
Note: To increase airflow to the outer panel
vents, close the vents in the middle of the
instrument panel.
Improving Vehicle Drive Range
Your vehicle is equipped with a high
voltage electric compressor and a high
voltage electric heater. You can increase
your driving range by minimizing the
amount of energy expended to cool or heat
the interior during the drive.
Pre-condition the interior temperature
during vehicle charging reduces the battery
energy use on the interior comfort and
improves range.
Note: Your vehicle may not always reach
the set cabin temperature due to charging
and ambient temperature conditions. Hot and cold temperatures make your
vehicle use more energy to achieve and
maintain a comfortable interior
temperature. Park the vehicle in the shade
or in a parking structure when hot, and in
a garage when cold.
Consider partially opening a window (or
windows) to let fresh air circulate, if
weather conditions permit. You can
achieve maximum energy savings by
switching the climate system off. Do this
only if conditions exist for safe vehicle
operation.
Reduce fan speed.
Set the
AUTO temperature a couple
degrees cooler than you normally do on
cold days and a couple degrees higher on
hot days. Use the heated seats on cold
days to increase interior comfort.
Switch the air conditioning off in mild
temperatures or low humidity conditions.
Defrost mode automatically turns the air
conditioning on to dehumidify the air, and
cannot be switched off. If defogging or
defrosting is not necessary, select a
non-defrost mode and disengage air
conditioning to extend vehicle range.
Air conditioning and heating functions are
automatically switched off (unless in
defrost mode) when driving distance to
empty is zero miles (zero km). The interior
fan will continue to operate.
HEATED WINDOWS AND
MIRRORS
Heated Rear Window
Note: Make sure the vehicle is running
before operating the heated windows.
96
Focus Electric (CDH) Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV), Canada/United States of America, HM5J 19A321 DA enUSA, Edition date: 201608, First Printing Climate Control

Press the button to clear the
heated rear window of thin ice
and fog. The heated rear
window will automatically turn off after a
short period of time.
Note: Do not use razor blades or other
sharp objects to clean or remove decals
from the inside of the heated rear window.
The vehicle warranty does not cover
damage caused to the heated rear window
grid lines.
Heated Exterior Mirrors (If Equipped) When you switch the heated rear
window on, the heated exterior
mirrors will automatically turn
on.
Note: Do not remove ice from the mirrors
with a scraper or adjust the mirror glass
when it is frozen in place.
Note: Do not clean the mirror housing or
glass with harsh abrasives, fuel or other
petroleum-based cleaning products.
CABIN AIR FILTER
Your vehicle is equipped with a cabin air
filter, which gives you and your passengers
the following benefits:
• It improves your driving comfort by
reducing particle concentration.
• It improves the interior compartment
cleanliness.
• It protects the climate control
components from particle deposits.
You can locate the cabin air filter behind
the glove box.
Note: Make sure you have a cabin air filter
installed at all times. This prevents foreign
objects from entering the system. Running
the system without a filter in place could
result in degradation or damage to the
system. Replace the filter at regular intervals. See
Scheduled Maintenance
(page 316).
For additional cabin air filter information,
or to replace the filter, see an authorized
dealer.
REMOTE START
You can switch this feature on or off and
adjust the settings using the information
display.
The system adjusts the interior
temperature depending on your chosen
settings during remote start.
You cannot adjust the climate control
setting during remote start operation.
When you switch the ignition on, the
climate control system will return to the
previous settings. You can now make
adjustments.
You can switch on certain
vehicle-dependent features when needed,
such as:
• Heated rear window.
• Heated exterior mirrors.
Note: You can control the system through
SYNC using a smartphone app. See
Apps
(page 285).
