Note:

When plugging into an unfamiliar

wall outlet, let the vehicle charge for several
minutes before leaving it unattended. The
red indicator will illuminate if not charging.
The unit will turn off if breaker or
infrastructure ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) is tripped. You can view vehicle
charging status remotely via the Ford Pass
App.

Mobile Charger Auto-Restart

Auto-restart helps to make sure that your
vehicle will be charged and ready for use
when needed. A charge could be
interrupted if errors are detected. Charging
resumes once the error is no longer
detected. The red indicator illuminates
during an error condition.

The exception to the immediate
auto-restart is when the interruption is due
to a charger ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) event. The charger attempts to
restart 15 minutes after a ground fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI) event. After the
fourth attempt to restart, the charger shuts
down and the red indicator stays on.

If the fault persists, do not continue to try
to charge your vehicle. Contact your
authorized dealer.

MOVING AND STORAGE
INSTRUCTIONS

Make sure you wrap the mobile charger
after charging. Store the mobile charger
in the storage bag supplied with the mobile
charger.

When charging is complete, replace the
mobile charger in the rear luggage
compartment, under the load floor.

Note:

Do not hold the mobile charger by

the power cable. Hold the complete unit
and carefully place back in the storage bag.

Note:

To remove the connector, firmly

grasp the connector by the cable or plug
and pull away from the control box.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Do not use cleaners or solvents as this
could damage your mobile charger. Do not
place stress on the charger cables. If unit
overheats, remove the mobile charger from
direct sunlight.

SAFETY FEATURES

The charger includes the following safety
features to protect against the risk of
electric shock:

•

Service Ground Check: The charger
constantly checks for the presence of
a service ground connection. If the
service ground ever fails, the charger
red indicator turns ON and shuts down
power to the vehicle.

•

Thermal Event Sensor: Charger module
senses out-of-ordinary thermal events
and decreases the charging current or
shuts the unit down if required.

•

Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
Protection: The charger has a ground
fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) reaction
system to protect against electric
shock. If the charger module detects
an output ground fault, it shuts down
power to the output cable and
illuminates the red indicator.

•

Insulation: The charger module,
connector, cable assembly, and charge
coupler are completely insulated.
There are no exposed live parts, to
protect against electric shock.

•

Unintentional Disconnection: The
charge coupler is designed to minimize
unintentional disconnection. A pilot
signal wire in the cable and charge
coupler eliminates the possibility of
electric shock when not connected to
a vehicle or if an unintended disconnect
occurs during a charge. Disconnection
during charging is safe.

LOCATING THE CHARGE PORT

The charge port is between the front
left-hand side door and front left-hand
wheel well. To open, press the center
right-hand edge of the charge port door
and then release.

E317346

Note:

Do not apply excessive force. Forcing

the door open or closed damages the charge
port.

CHARGE PORT INDICATORS

The charge status indicator is next to the
charging port behind the charge port door.
It indicates the charge status of the high
voltage battery in your vehicle.

Divided into five zones, the charge status
indicator displays the state of charge in 20
percent increments.

The charge status indicator displays how
far along the charge is:
•

When zone A is pulsing, the charge is
between 0-20 percent.

•

When zone A illuminates, and zone B
is pulsing, the charge is between 20-40
percent.

•

When zones A and B illuminate and
zone C is pulsing, the charge is between
40-60 percent.

168

Charging Your Vehicle

•

When zones A, B, and C illuminate, and
zone D is pulsing, the charge is between
60-80 percent.

•

When zones A, B, C, and D illuminate,
and zone E is pulsing, the charge is
between 80-100 percent.

•

When all zones illuminate, the charge
is 100 percent.

E317499

Note:

When charging stops, the charge

status indicator shows all the completed
zones solidly illuminated up in a blue color
for 30 seconds before turning off. For
example, if charging stops at 70 percent,
then A, B, and C light up solidly to indicate
a battery charge level of at least 60 percent
but less than 80 percent. Charging stops
when complete or when paused due to
charge settings or charge station actions.

Note:

If the charge status indicator does

not light up or pulse after plugging in, please
verify that the charge port light setting is On.
If you do not wish to have the charge status
indicator light up at all while charging, then
you can turn it Off. Locate the charge port
light under the vehicle settings on your
in-vehicle touchscreen.

There are three charge port indicator light
colors, which indicate a specific action:

White is used as a courtesy light to help
with plugging in and to acknowledge
actions such as plugging in and unplugging.

Blue is used when the vehicle is plugged in
and either charging or waiting to charge.

Amber is used to indicate charge faults.

E306677

Note:

Charging faults are identified by the

color amber on the charge status indicator.
Faults can occur within the vehicle charging
system or outside the vehicle, such as with
the mobile charger, charge station or
electrical supply.

Note:

If the system detects a fault in the

vehicle charging system at any point in a
charge cycle, the entire charge status
indicator illuminates solidly in an amber
color for 30 seconds and then turns off. If
this happens, unplug the charge coupler and
then plug it back into the charge port
receptacle. If the problem persists, have
your vehicle serviced as soon as possible.

Note:

If the system detects a fault outside

the vehicle, such as with the charge station
or mobile charger, the entire charge status
indicator flashes amber continuously for 30
seconds and then turns off. If this happens
check the mobile charger, charge station or
electrical supply.
