Remote Start*
Remote start allows you to start the engine from outside your
vehicle using your remote transmitter. To start, press and then
press twice within three seconds. Once inside, apply the brake
while pressing the ENGINE START/STOP button. Shift into drive
(D) and go. If you have the integrated keyhead transmitter, insert
the key into the ignition and switch on the ignition as you normally
would before driving. To switch the engine off from outside the
vehicle after using your remote start, press
once.
Intelligent Access*
NOTE Your intelligent access transmitter must be within 3 feet
(1 meter) of the vehicle for intelligent access to function properly.
This system operates the power locks. To unlock the driver’s door,
pull the front exterior door handle. To lock the doors, press the
sensor on top of the door handles. To unlock and open the trunk,
press the exterior trunk release button near the license plate. The
intelligent access transmitter also contains a mechanical key
blade, which can be used to unlock the driver’s door, if necessary.
You must have a valid transmitter inside the vehicle to switch on
the ignition and start the engine. If you are unable to start your
vehicle using the push-button start, do the following:
1. Place the transmitter in the backup slot in the center console.
2. With the transmitter in this position, press the brake pedal, then
the ENGINE START/STOP button to switch the ignition on and
start your vehicle.
Auto Start-Stop*
The system helps reduce fuel consumption. When you stop at a
light or experience prolonged stops in heavy traffic, the engine will
stop automatically. When you take your foot from the brake pedal
and press on the accelerator, the engine will restart automatically.
A green Auto Start-Stop indicator light within the instrument
cluster will display to indicate when the engine stop occurs.
The system turns on automatically with every ignition cycle.
To switch this feature off, press the AUTO START-STOP button,
located on the center console, near the gearshift lever. The button
will light. Press the button again to restart.
Active Park Assist*
The active park assist system can detect an available parallel
parking space and automatically steer the vehicle into that space
(hands-free). The system instructs you with visual and audible
instructions on when you need to apply the brake, accelerate and
shift gears in order to safely park the vehicle. To initiate active
park assist, press the
button located on the center console,
near the gear shifter lever. To stop the parking procedure, grab the
steering wheel or press the control again. For complete information,
refer to the Parking Aids chapter of your Owner’s Manual.
NOTE The driver is always responsible for controlling the vehicle,
supervising the system and intervening, if required.

Fuel Tank
Capacity/Fuel Info
Fuel tank capacity varies on your Fusion,
depending on your drive type: 16.5 gallons
(62.5 liters) for front-wheel drive models
and 17.5 gallons (66.2 liters) for all-wheel
drive models. Use only UNLEADED
gasoline with an 87 octane rating. Do not
use ethanol (E85), diesel, fuel-methanol,
leaded fuel or any other fuel because
it could damage or impair the emission
control system.
Fuel-efficient
Automatic Transmission
*
Your vehicle has been designed to improve
fuel economy by reducing fuel usage
while coasting or decelerating. This may
be perceived as a light to medium braking
sensation when removing your foot from
the accelerator pedal.
Easy Fuel® System
With this system, open the fuel door, insert
the nozzle and begin fueling. It is self-
sealing and therefore protected against
dust, dirt, water, snow and ice. Wait 10
seconds from the time the refueling nozzle
is shut-off until you remove the nozzle from
the vehicle to allow residual fuel in the
nozzle to drain into the tank.
NOTE When using a portable fuel
container, use the removable fuel funnel,
located behind the left rear seat, under
the carpet. To access, fold the seatback
down and pull back the piece of carpet.
Slowly insert the fuel funnel and pour the
fuel into the funnel. When done, clean the
funnel or properly dispose of it. Do not use
aftermarket funnels as they will not work
with the Easy Fuel system and may cause
damage. Refer to the Refueling section
in the Fuel and Refueling chapter of your
Owner's Manual for additional information.

spot zone. Cross traffic alert will alert you
if a car is coming toward you when you

pressure. Refer to the Inflating Your Tires
