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.
