When the vehicle is in Value
Charge mode, the system
displays the estimated charge
complete time. It is normal for
the estimated complete time
to change when charging. The
vehicle keeps charging until the
high-voltage battery is fully
charged.
Scheduled Charge
Complete Time
This is an estimate of when your vehicle is charged to
80% via DC Fast Charging.
Charge to 80%
This is an estimate of when your vehicle is charged to
100% via DC Fast Charging.
Charge to
100%
This is the scheduled start time of charging.

C
When the vehicle is in Charge
Now mode, and unplugged, the
message At Plug In appears,
indicating the vehicle immedi-
ately starts charging once you
plug it in. Once you plug it in,
the system shows the actual
charge start time.
At Plug-In
When the vehicle is in Value
Charge mode, the system
displays the scheduled charge
start time (for example, 8:00
PM). Once charging starts, the
system continues to display the
actual charge start time.

The system detects a customer defined value charge
profile when the vehicle is within approximately 300 ft
(91.4 m) of the GPS location registered for the profile. If
the vehicle is close to more than one charge profile
location, it chooses the closest.
Displays if you have not set up
value charge profiles for
specific locations through
MyFord Mobile or if you are not
close enough to a defined
profile location.
Default Profile
Touch this button if you want your vehicle to immediately
charge when plugged in at this profile location. This
button illuminates when Charge Now is the charge mode
selected for the presently detected charge profile.

Estimated Charge Time Limits
Action and Description
Menu Item
Item
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 or 32A / HI 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, or a 230V charging station and a
32A service, and high-voltage battery at a moderate
temperature.

Action and Description
Menu Item
Item
Note: Some charging stations use lower voltage (208V),
which result in longer charge times.
120V / Low Power or 10A / LO 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, or a 230V convenience cord and 10A service.
Note: These charging times are only estimates. It is normal for your actual charge duration
to be longer.
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 110).
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
This turns on the GO Time schedule.
On
This turns off the GO Time schedule. This also turns off the cabin
conditioning function. Use this mode to prevent using energy for
cabin preconditioning when you leave your vehicle plugged in and
do not plan to use it for a while, such as when on vacation.
Off
Note:
If you choose to perform Value Charging with the schedule
off, the vehicle schedules charging to finish at the lowest cost
within 24 hours of plugging the vehicle in.
This displays the GO Time day-of-week and time. The blue high-
lighted GO Time is the present GO Time, which the vehicle is using
for charge scheduling and cabin conditioning. You can schedule
two GO Time events per day for each day of the week.

Cabin conditioning can perform differently depending on
if you plug into a low current convenience cord or a high current
charging station. The power available for conditioning is limited
to the charging station power available.
Note:
Your vehicle may not always reach the set cabin temper-
ature due to charging and ambient temperature conditions. This
is normal operation.
Touching this button erases the GO Time and cabin conditioning
temperature.

1 The battery-to-motor flow includes
battery power the vehicle is using for
acceleration. It does not include energy the
vehicle is using for accessories (such as air
conditioning, headlights and radio). This
screen displays accessories and climate
usage separately.
2 Accessories indicates electrical power
demands from your vehicle ’s accessory
systems. Accessories use power but do not
contribute to making the vehicle move. The
power flow displays power usage from the
climate control system and other
accessories separately.
3 The climate control system may
determine A/C is necessary even when you
turn it off. In this case, you may see some
climate power when the A/C is off. Privacy Notice for GPS Mapping with
MyFord
MyFord allows for GPS mapping when a
vehicle is registered to a MyFord Mobile
account. To remove the vehicle from the
account, thereby removing GPS mapping
ability, a Master Reset can be performed
in the vehicle. See Settings (page 290).
Before transferring ownership of a vehicle,
owners may choose to execute a Master
Reset or Factory Reset (completed via the
MyFord Mobile website). Either method
removes the vehicle from all MyFord
Mobile accounts.
