FUEL CONSUMPTION
Advertised Capacity
The advertised capacity is the maximum
amount of fuel that you can add to the fuel
tank when the fuel gauge indicates empty.
See
Capacities and Specifications
(page 279).
135
Explorer (CTW) Police, Canada/United States of America, Police, enUSA, Edition date: 202007, Second-Printing Fuel and RefuelingE297793

In addition, the fuel tank contains an empty
reserve. The empty reserve is an
unspecified amount of fuel that remains
in the fuel tank when the fuel gauge
indicates empty.
Note:
The amount of fuel in the empty
reserve varies and should not be relied upon
to increase driving range.
Calculating Fuel Economy
Your vehicle calculates fuel economy
figures through the trip computer average
fuel function. See Information Displays
(page 84).
The first
1,000 mi (1,600 km) of driving is
the break-in period of the vehicle. A more
accurate measurement is obtained after
2,000– 3,000 mi (3,200–4,800 km)
.
1. Completely fill the fuel tank and record
the initial odometer reading.
See
Refueling (page 133).
2. Each time you fill the fuel tank, record the amount of fuel added.
3. After at least three fill ups, fill the fuel tank and record the current odometer
reading.
4. Subtract your initial odometer reading from the current odometer reading.
To calculate L/100 km (liters per 100
kilometers) fuel consumption, multiply the
liters used by 100, then divide by kilometers
traveled. To calculate MPG (miles per
gallon) fuel consumption, divide miles
traveled by gallons used.
Keep a record for at least one month and
record the type of driving, for example city
or highway. This provides an accurate
estimate of your vehicle ’s fuel economy
under current driving conditions. Keeping
records during summer and winter shows
how temperature impacts fuel economy. Conditions Influencing Fuel Efficiency
•
Carrying unnecessary weight in your
vehicle will reduce fuel efficiency.
• Avoid adding accessories that increase
aerodynamic drag to your vehicle such
as bug deflectors, car top carriers and
ski or bike racks.
• Remove empty roof racks and keep
windows shut at high speeds to reduce
wind resistance and fuel use.
• Check and adjust tire pressure
regularly. Under inflated tires will
increase fuel consumption.
• Sudden acceleration and braking
degrade fuel efficiency. Drive smoothly
looking as far ahead as possible and
avoid short trips when possible.
• Fuel efficiency degrades with lower
temperatures.
• Comfort Features use additional energy
and consume more fuel. Use AC and
other comfort features only when
necessary.
• Using fuel blended with alcohol may
increase fuel consumption.

out of reverse (R).
Neutral (N)
With the gearshift lever in neutral (N), you
can start your vehicle and it is free to roll.
Hold the brake pedal down while in this
position.
Drive (D)
Drive (D) is the normal driving position for
the best fuel economy. The overdrive
function allows automatic upshifts and
downshifts through gears 1 through 10.
Low (L)
The low (L) button is at the end of the
column shifter. Activating low (L) gear:
•
Provides maximum engine braking.
• Downshifts to the lowest available gear
for the current vehicle speed. Allows
for first gear when the vehicle reaches
lower speeds.
• Is not for use under extended or normal
driving conditions and results in lower
fuel economy.
The instrument cluster displays the current
gear.
If Your Vehicle Gets Stuck in Mud
or Snow
Note: Do not rock the vehicle if the engine
is not at normal operating temperature or
damage to the transmission could occur.
