activates and releases the brakes, and
slows your vehicle down to low speeds
while maintaining steering control. If your
vehicle slows down and you resume
control, a message appears to prompt you
to press the accelerator pedal to allow the
system to resume.
Note: The system disables until the next
key cycle if repeated inactivity is detected.

COLD WEATHER
PRECAUTIONS
The functional operation of some
components and systems can be affected
at temperatures below approximately
-13°F (-25°C).
DRIVING ON SNOW AND ICE WARNING:
If you are driving in
slippery conditions that require tire
chains or cables, then it is critical that
you drive cautiously. Keep speeds down,
allow for longer stopping distances and
avoid aggressive steering to reduce the
chances of a loss of vehicle control
which can lead to serious injury or death.
If the rear end of your vehicle slides while
cornering, steer in the direction of the
slide until you regain control of your
vehicle.
On ice and snow, you should drive more
slowly than usual. Your vehicle has a four
wheel anti-lock brake system, do not pump
the brake pedal.
See Anti-Lock Braking
System Limitations (page 187).
BREAKING-IN
You need to break in new tires for
approximately
300 mi (480 km). During
this time, your vehicle may exhibit some
unusual driving characteristics.
PERFORMANCE VEHICLE
PRECAUTIONS
• Verify correct tire pressures.
• Inspect wheels and tires for wear and
damage. Replace any damaged wheels
or tires. •
Do not operate your vehicle at high
speeds with more than two passengers
or while carrying cargo.
• It is recommended to cross speed
bumps or driveway inclines slowly and
at a
45° angle to reduce the risk of
vehicle damage.
• Do not drive through car washes with
the vehicle heavily loaded with
passengers or luggage.
• Use only commercial car washes
without mechanical tracks or hand
wash to avoid potential damage.
• Put your vehicle in stay in neutral mode
when entering an automatic car wash.
See
What Is Temporary Neutral
Mode (page 184).
DRIVING IN SPECIAL
CONDITIONS
EMERGENCY MANEUVERS
In an unavoidable emergency where you
must make a sudden sharp maneuver, turn
the steering wheel only as rapidly and as
far as required to avoid the emergency.
Apply smooth pressure to the accelerator
pedal or brake pedal as needed. Avoid
abrupt steering, acceleration and braking
changes. Abrupt changes could increase
the risk of vehicle roll over, loss of vehicle
control and personal injury. If possible, use
any available road surfaces to bring your
vehicle under control.

ELECTRIC VEHICLE
MAXIMIZING YOUR DRIVING
RANGE
Driving in Cold Weather
Keep your vehicle charged before heading
out into cold weather.
Use the heated seats and steering wheel
for comfort along with moderate cabin
temperature and fan settings to reduce
energy needed for climate control.
Preconditioning Your Vehicle
You can precondition your vehicle by using
departure and comfort settings to warm
or cool your cabin and the high voltage
battery when your vehicle is plugged in. By
using energy from your charging source
prior to your departure, battery
temperature can be managed for best
driving performance and less energy will
be needed for heating or cooling of the
cabin at the start of your drive. This helps
maximize your driving range. See Setting
the Charging Schedule and Preferences
(page 174).
Note: You can also access departure and
comfort settings using the FordPass App.
Note: Lower cabin temperature settings on
the climate control system results in better
trip range.
Parking Your Vehicle
At temperatures just above the freezing
point and lower, plug your vehicle in when
not in use to maintain high voltage battery
performance.
When possible park your vehicle under a
covered area or in a garage. This will help
to moderate temperatures which affect
performance of the high voltage battery
and require energy to heat or cool the
cabin. Driving Style
Range is reduced when driving aggressively
or at consistently high speeds. Aggressive
driving for extended periods could also
result in reducing your battery
’s efficiency
and lifespan. Use the trip application on
your touchscreen to see your driving scores.
See
Trip Data (page 124).
DRIVING THROUGH SHALLOW
WATER WARNING:
Do not attempt to
cross a deep or flowing body of water.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death.
Note: Driving through standing water can
cause vehicle damage.
Before driving through standing water,
check the depth. Never drive through water
that is higher than the bottom of the front
rocker area of your vehicle. When driving through standing water, drive
very slowly and do not stop your vehicle.
Your brake performance and traction could
be limited. After driving through water and
as soon as it is safe to do so:

Note:
If prediluted coolant is not available,
use the approved concentrated coolant
diluting it to 50/50 with distilled water. See
Cooling System Capacity and
Specification (page 344). Using water that
has not been deionized could contribute to
deposit formation, corrosion and plugging
of the small cooling system passageways.
Note: Coolants marketed for all makes and
models might not meet our specifications
and could cause damage to the cooling
system. Resulting component damage
could void the vehicle warranty.
If the coolant level is at or below the
minimum mark, add prediluted coolant
immediately.
To top up the coolant level do the
following:
1. Unscrew the cap slowly. Any pressure escapes as you unscrew the cap.
2. Add prediluted coolant approved to the correct specification. See Cooling
System Capacity and Specification
(page 344).
3. Add enough prediluted coolant to reach the correct level.
4. Replace the coolant reservoir cap. Turn
the cap clockwise until it contacts the
hard stop.
5. Check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir the next few times you drive
your vehicle. If necessary, add enough
prediluted coolant to bring the coolant
level to the correct level.
If you have to add more than
1.1 qt (1 L) of
coolant per month, have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible. Operating
your vehicle with a low level of coolant can
result in overheating and possible electric
motor damage. In case of emergency, you can add a large
amount of water without coolant in order
to reach a vehicle service location. In this
instance, have qualified personnel do the
following as soon as possible:
1. Drain the cooling system.
2. Chemically clean the coolant system.
3. Refill with coolant.
Water alone, without coolant, can cause
damage from corrosion, overheating or
freezing.
Do not use the following as a coolant
substitute:
•
Alcohol.
• Methanol.
• Brine.
• Any coolant mixed with alcohol or
methanol antifreeze.
Alcohol and other liquids can cause
damage from overheating or freezing.
Do not add extra inhibitors or additives to
the coolant. These can be harmful and
compromise the corrosion protection of
the coolant.
Recycled Coolant
We do not recommend the use of recycled
coolant, as an approved recycling process
is not yet available.
Dispose of used coolant in an appropriate
manner. Follow your community's
regulations and standards for recycling and
disposing of automotive fluids.
