BLIS® (Blind Spot
Information
System)
with Cross Traffic Alert*
BLIS is designed to aid you in detecting
vehicles that may have entered into your
blind spot zone. Cross traffic alert warns
you of vehicles approaching from the sides
when the transmission is in reverse (R). BLIS
and cross traffic turn on a yellow indicator
light in the exterior mirror on the side of the
vehicle the approaching vehicle is coming
from. Refer to the Driving Aids chapter in
your Owner’s Manual for more information.
Tire Pressure
Monitoring System
Your vehicle displays a low tire pressure
warning light in your information display
when one or more of your tires are significantly
under-inflated. If this happens, stop and check
your tires as soon as possible, then inflate them
to the proper pressure. Refer to the Wheels and
Tires chapter of your Owner’s Manual for
more information.
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 fuel or
UNLEADED fuel blended with a maximum
of 15% ethanol and a minimum 87 octane
rating. Do not use E85 (ethanol), diesel,
fuel-methanol, leaded fuel or any other
fuel because it could damage or impair
the emission control system.
Easy Fuel® System
Put your vehicle into park (P) and switch
the ignition off. Open the fuel release door.
Slowly insert the fuel filler nozzle into the
fuel system, and leave the nozzle fully
inserted until you stop pumping fuel. Allow
about five to ten seconds after pumping
fuel before removing the fuel filler nozzle.
This allows residual fuel to drain back into
the fuel tank and not spill onto the vehicle.
Slowly remove the fuel filler nozzle.
NOTE When using a portable fuel
container, slowly insert the fuel funnel
(located under the luggage compartment
floor covering), and pour the fuel into
the funnel. When done, clean the funnel
or properly dispose of it. Do not use
aftermarket funnels as they do not work
with the Easy Fuel system and may cause
damage. You can purchase extra funnels
from your authorized dealer. Refer to the
Refueling section in the Fuel and Refueling
chapter of your Owner's Manual for
warnings and additional information.
