Starting the vehicle
•The engine will start and run when you first turn the ignition key to
the start position.
•The engine cannot be started in the N (Neutral) position.
•Depending upon temperature and the high voltage battery’s state of
charge, the engine may shut off shortly after starting the vehicle; this
is a normal condition and you do not need to restart the vehicle. The
Ready Indicator Light in the instrument cluster will illuminate to
indicate the vehicle is running. For more Ready Indicator Light
information, refer toWarning lights and chimesin theInstrument
Clusterchapter.
DRIVING THE VEHICLE
Starting Out:
Under normal operation with the vehicle at operating temperature, the
engine will start automatically as you accelerate. Sometimes the engine
will start immediately as you begin moving, while other times the vehicle
will obtain a speed of up to 25 mph (40 km/h) before the engine starts.
You may hear and feel the engine starting as you transition from
electrical to hybrid (gas engine on) operation. This is a normal condition.
These are some of the conditions that may cause engine start-up:
•High voltage battery re-charge is required.
•Driver acceleration demands exceed electric motor capability.
•Outside air temperature is overly hot or cold.
•Certain climate system modes of operation.
•If you are starting up hill or accelerating quickly, the engine will start
immediately as operating conditions require additional power.
Note:If the high voltage battery is very cold or very hot, the engine may
operate more than under normal conditions, and vehicle performance
may be temporarily reduced. This is a normal condition.
Transmission operation
•Your vehicle does not shift like a conventional vehicle. You may feel
transitions between the various operating modes of the hybrid system,
but no actual shifting occurs. For more information about transmission
operation, refer toUnderstanding the gearshift positions of the
electronically-controlled Continuously Variable Transaxle (eCVT)
in theDrivingchapter.

•The Mariner Hybrid’s hydraulic brake system used for regenerative
braking is different from other vehicles. The noise from the ABS pump
motor and the brake pedal pulsation are much less than on vehicles
with conventional ABS. Noise and pedal pulsation during ABS may not
be noticed. For more information about braking, refer toBrakingin
theDrivingchapter.
•The engine speed in an Mariner Hybrid is not directly tied to the
vehicle speed. Under certain conditions, the engine speed may appear
much higher than that of a conventional automobile. This is a normal
condition and is caused by engine speed optimization to maximize fuel
economy.
•During certain events (such as vehicle servicing) your low voltage
(underhood) battery may become disconnected or disabled. When this
occurs, and after reconnecting the low voltage (underhood) battery
and driving the vehicle, the engine may continue to operate for 3-5
seconds after the key is turned to the 1 (LOCK) position. This is a
normal condition, as the vehicle’s computers are relearning the
operating characteristics of your particular engine in order to operate
it at maximum efficiency.
•The high voltage battery may go through a self-reconditioning process
from time to time; these events optimize high voltage battery
performance. You may notice slight changes to driveability during the
reconditioning process. This is a normal condition.
•If the vehicle is left inoperative for over 31 days, it may be necessary
to jumpstart the vehicle. For more information, refer toJump
starting your vehicle (Low voltage [underhood] battery only)in
theRoadside Emergencieschapter.
DRIVING TO OPTIMIZE FUEL ECONOMY
Fuel economy can be significantly impacted by your driving habits and
accessory usage. To optimize the fuel economy in your vehicle, please be
aware of the following vehicle functions which affect fuel economy:
A/C operation
•With the climate control system set to MAX A/C, defrost, or
defrost/floor mode (the orange graphics on your climate control), the
engine will typically run continuously, reducing fuel economy. Setting
the climate control system to A/C mode or A/C
mode also
reduces fuel economy, but in this case the A/C only operates when the
engine is already running due to other demands. Because the engine
does not run continuously, A/C and A/C
mode are more fuel
efficient than MAX A/C mode.

MANUAL HEATING AND AIR
CONDITIONING SYSTEM
1.Fan speed adjustment:Controls
the volume of air circulated in the
vehicle.
2.Air flow selections:Controls
the direction of the airflow in the
vehicle. See the following for a brief description on each control.
MAX A/C:Uses recirculated air to cool the vehicle. Air flows from the
instrument panel vents only.Note:With the climate system set to MAX
A/C mode, the engine will typically run continuously, reducing fuel
economy. This also applies to the other two modes displayed with an
orange graphic:
(defrost/floor), and(defrost).
A/C
:Uses recirculated air to cool the vehicle. Air flows from the
instrument panel vents only.Note:When A/C
mode is selected,
you may notice the air temperature cycle from cooler to warmer as the
engine turns on and off.
A/C:Uses outside air to cool the vehicle. Air flows from the instrument
panel vents only.Note:When A/C mode is selected, you may notice the
air temperature cycle from cooler to warmer as the engine turns on and
off.
:Distributes outside air through the instrument panel vents.
O (OFF):Outside air is shut out and the fan will not operate.
:Distributes outside air through the instrument panel vents and the
floor vents.
:Distributes outside air through the floor vents.
:Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster vents and
floor vents. The air conditioner will automatically turn on to dehumidify
the air.
Note:With the climate system set to
(defrost/floor) mode, the
engine will typically run continuously, reducing fuel economy.
:Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster vents. The
air conditioner will automatically turn on to dehumidify the air.
Note:With the climate system set to
(defrost) mode, the engine
will typically run continuously, reducing fuel economy.
3.Temperature selection:Controls the temperature of the airflow in
the vehicle.

Operating tips
•To reduce fog build up on the windshield during humid weather, place
the air flow selector in the
position.
•To reduce humidity build up inside the vehicle in cold weather: do not
drive with the air flow selector in the O (OFF), A/C
or MAX
A/C position.
•Under normal weather conditions, do not leave the air flow selector in
MAX A/C, A/C
or O (OFF) when the vehicle is parked. This
allows the vehicle to “breathe” using the outside air inlet vents.
•Do not put objects under the front seats that will interfere with the
airflow to the back seats.
•Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of
the windshield.
To aid in side window defogging/demisting in cold weather:
1. Select A/C.
2. Adjust the temperature control to maintain comfort.
3. Set the fan speed to 4.
4. Direct the outer instrument panel vents towards the side windows.
To increase airflow to the outer instrument panel vents, close the vents
located in the middle of the instrument panel.
Do not place objects on top of the instrument panel as these
objects may become projectiles in a collision or sudden stop.
REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER
The rear defroster control is located
on the instrument panel. Press to
clear the rear window of thin ice
and fog. The small LED will
illuminate when activated.
Ensure that the ignition is in the 3 (RUN) position in order to operate
the rear window defroster.
The defroster turns off automatically after 15 minutes or when the
ignition is turned to the 1 (LOCK) position. To manually turn off the
defroster before 15 minutes have passed, push the control a second time.

government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one
and one-half (1 1/2) times as well on the government course as a tire
graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual
conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the
norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices, and
differences in road characteristics and climate.
Traction AA A B C
The traction grades, from highest to lowest are AA, A, B, and C. The
grades represent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement as measured
under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces of
asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction
performance.
The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on
straight-ahead braking traction tests, and does not include
acceleration, cornering, hydroplaning or peak traction characteristics.
Temperature A B C
The temperature grades are A (the highest), B and C, representing the
tire’s resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat
when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory
test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire
to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to
sudden tire failure. The grade C corresponds to a level of performance
which all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of
performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by
law.
The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that
is properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed,
underinflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in
combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.
TIRES
Tires are designed to give many thousands of miles of service, but they
must be maintained in order to get the maximum benefit from them.
Glossary of tire terminology
•Tire label:A label showing the OE (Original Equipment) tire sizes,
recommended inflation pressure and the maximum weight the vehicle
can carry.

any tire is under-inflated, carefully drive the vehicle to the nearest
location where air can be added to the tires. Inflate all the tires to the
recommended inflation pressure.
USING SNOW TIRES AND TRACTION DEVICES
Snow tires must be the same size and grade as the tires you
currently have on your vehicle.
The tires on your vehicle have all-weather treads to provide traction in
rain and snow. However, in some climates, using snow tires or traction
devices may be necessary.
Follow these guidelines when using snow tires and traction devices:
•SAE class “S” cables should ONLY be used on the front axle for
P235/70R16 tires.
•Install cables or chains securely, verifying that the cables or chains do
not touch any wiring, brake lines or fuel lines.
•Drive cautiously. If you hear the cables or chains rub or bang against
the vehicle, stop and retighten them. If this does not work, remove the
cables or chains to prevent vehicle damage.
•Avoid overloading your vehicle.
•Remove the cables or chains when they are no longer needed.
•Do not use cables or chains on dry roads.
•Do not exceed 30 mph (48 km/h) with tire cables or chains on your
vehicle.
Consult your authorized dealer for information on other Ford Motor
Company approved methods of traction control.
VEHICLE LOADING – WITH AND WITHOUT A TRAILER
This section will guide you in the proper loading of your vehicle and/or
trailer, to keep your loaded vehicle weight within its design rating
capability, with or without a trailer. Properly loading your vehicle will
provide maximum return of vehicle design performance. Before loading
your vehicle, familiarize yourself with the following terms for determining
your vehicle’s weight ratings, with or without a trailer, from the vehicle’s
Tire Label or Safety Compliance Certification Label:
Base Curb Weight– is the weight of the vehicle including a full tank of
fuel and all standard equipment. It does not include passengers, cargo, or
optional equipment.
