charging FORD FOCUS ELECTRIC 2017 3.G Owner's Manual

To improve the charging experience, your vehicle has the following convenience
features:
Description
Feature
Your vehicle schedules its charging time for when the utility rates
are lowest. Contact your utility company to see what rates are
available.
Value Charge
Your vehicle starts charging immediately after you connect the
charging plug.
Charge Now
Get the most miles out of every charge by conditioning your
plugged in vehicle. Set the cabin temperature when you set your
GO Time in order to use energy from your home, or charging
station, instead of your vehicle battery.
Cabin Conditioning
Setting GO Times allows you to control charging schedules and
cabin conditioning settings so your vehicle is ready to drive when
you are. By setting a GO Time, your vehicle can use your value
charge settings to minimize your electricity costs but still prioritize
getting a full charge before your GO Time. A calendar view allows
you to program two GO Times per day for each day of the week.
My GO Times
Note: Remember, you must plug in your vehicle for My GO Time
to work.
Note: Value Charge is not available when
using DC Fast Charge. If climate control is
left on when the vehicle is powered off
before plugging in to a DC Fast Charge
Station, the vehicle cabin will be
conditioned to
72°F (22°C) while Fast
Charging. See Charging the High Voltage
Battery
(page 109). Note:
Charging to 100% by your next GO
Time will always be the priority. When Value
Charge is selected, charging outside of
off-peak times may be necessary in order
to be fully charged by your GO Time.
Charge Settings Screen
Each of the four areas highlighted below
show a different feature of the charge
settings screen.

Conflict Notification
The system alerts you to any conflicts by
highlighting areas of the screen in colored
text.
If your battery cannot have a full charge by the scheduled drive time, the system
highlights your next GO Time and Charge Complete time and the following
message appears: Action and Description

To eliminate the conflict notification
immediately or to prevent a conflict in the
future, try the following:
•
Switch the present GO Time to occur
later. •
Plug the vehicle into a 240V high
current charging station instead of
using the 120V low current convenience
cord. Higher power charging yields
shorter charge times.
• Plug the vehicle in sooner.

This shows you the battery's current charge displayed
as a percentage. A reading of 100% means the battery
has a full charge. A reading of 0% indicates the battery
has no plug-in energy left.
Battery
A
240V / High Power is the estimated minimum charging
time from the present high-voltage battery level to full
charge (100%). This represents the shortest amount of
time you should expect the high-voltage battery to
recharge under ideal conditions. Ideal conditions include
a 240V charging station and a minimum 30A service and
high-voltage battery at a moderate temperature.

Note: Some charging stations use lower voltage (208V),
which result in longer charge times.
120V / Low Power is the estimated maximum charging
time from the present high-voltage battery level to full
charge (100%). This represents the longest amount of
time you should expect the high-voltage battery to
recharge under normal conditions. Normal conditions
include a 120V convenience cord and 12A service.
Note: Charging may take longer when the AC line voltage
is low and may indicate your electrical source is not
meeting certain requirements. See Charging the High
Voltage Battery (page 109).
Note: These charging times are only estimates. It is normal for your actual charge duration
to be longer.
GO Time Schedule
You can access the GO Time Schedule by
selecting the edit option under MY GO
Time on the Charge Setting screen. Action and Description
Menu Item
