FUEL AND REFUELING
PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: 

Do not overfill the fuel

tank. The pressure in an overfilled tank
may cause leakage and lead to fuel spray
and fire.

WARNING: 

The fuel system may

be under pressure. If you hear a hissing
sound near the fuel filler inlet, do not
refuel until the sound stops. Otherwise,
fuel may spray out, which could cause
serious personal injury.

WARNING: 

Fuels can cause serious

injury or death if misused or mishandled.

WARNING: 

Fuel may contain

benzene, which is a cancer-causing
agent.

WARNING: 

When refueling always

shut the engine off and never allow
sparks or open flames near the fuel tank
filler valve. Never smoke or use a cell
phone while refueling. Fuel vapor is
extremely hazardous under certain
conditions. Avoid inhaling excess fumes.

WARNING: 

Read and follow all the

instructions on the pump island.

Follow these guidelines when refueling:

Extinguish all smoking materials and
any open flames before refueling your
vehicle.

Switch the engine off before refueling.

Automotive fuels can be harmful or
fatal if swallowed. Fuel is highly toxic
and if swallowed can cause death or
permanent injury. If fuel is swallowed
immediately call a physician, even if no
symptoms are immediately apparent.
The toxic effects of fuel may not be
apparent for hours.

Avoid inhaling fuel vapors.  Inhaling fuel
vapor can lead to eye and respiratory
tract irritation.  In severe cases,
excessive or prolonged breathing of
fuel vapor can cause serious illness and
permanent injury.

Avoid getting fuel in your eyes. If you
splash fuel in your eyes, immediately
remove contact lenses, if worn, flush
with water for 15 minutes and seek
medical attention.  Failure to seek
proper medical attention could lead to
permanent injury.

Fuels can be harmful if absorbed
through the skin. If you splash fuel on
your skin, clothing or both, promptly
remove contaminated clothing and
thoroughly wash your skin with soap
and water. Repeated or prolonged skin
contact causes skin irritation.

Be particularly careful if you are taking
Antabuse or other forms of Disulfiram
for the treatment of alcoholism.
Breathing fuel vapors could cause an
adverse reaction, serious personal
injury or sickness. Immediately call a
physician if you experience any adverse
reactions.

FUEL QUALITY

SELECTING THE CORRECT FUEL -
3.5L DURATEC, E85

Flex fuel vehicles have one of the following
identifiers:

Yellow fuel filler cap.

Yellow bezel around the fuel filler inlet.

Yellow fuel filler housing.

Yellow E85 label on the fuel tank filler
door.

E161513

Your vehicle is designed to operate on
regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum
pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87 or
regular unleaded gasoline blended with a
maximum of 85% ethanol (E85).

Some fuel stations, particularly those in
high altitude areas, offer fuels posted as
regular unleaded gasoline with an octane
rating below 87. The use of these fuels
could result in engine damage that will not
be covered by the vehicle warranty.

For best overall vehicle and engine
performance, premium fuel with an octane
rating of 91 or higher is recommended. The
performance gained by using premium fuel
is most noticeable in hot weather as well
as other conditions, for example when
towing a trailer.

Do not be concerned if the engine
sometimes knocks lightly.  However, if the
engine knocks heavily while using fuel with
the recommended octane rating, contact
an authorized dealer to prevent any engine
damage.

We recommend Top Tier detergent
gasolines, where available to help minimize
engine deposits and maintain optimal
vehicle and engine performance. For
additional information, refer to
www.toptiergas.com.

Note:

Use of any fuel for which the vehicle

was not designed can impair the emission
control system, cause loss of vehicle
performance, and cause damage to the
engine which may not be covered by the
vehicle Warranty.

Do not use:

Diesel fuel.

Fuels containing kerosene or paraffin.

Fuels containing more than 85%
ethanol or E100 fuel.

Fuels containing methanol.

Fuels containing metallic-based
additives, including manganese-based
compounds.

Fuels containing the octane booster
additive, methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl (MMT).

Leaded fuel, using leaded fuel is
prohibited by law.

The use of fuels with metallic compounds
such as methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl (commonly known
as MMT), which is a manganese-based

SWITCHING BETWEEN E85 AND
GASOLINE - 3.5L DURATEC

We do not recommend repeatedly
alternating between E85 and gasoline. If
you switch from using E85 to gasoline, or
from gasoline to E85, add as much fuel as
possible, at least half a tank. Drive your
vehicle immediately for a minimum of 5 mi
(8 km) to allow it to adapt to the change
in ethanol concentration. If you use E85
exclusively, we recommend that you fill
the fuel tank with regular unleaded
gasoline at each scheduled oil change.

compartment or in the front right-hand
side stepwell storage compartment.

RUNNING OUT OF FUEL

FILLING A PORTABLE FUEL
CONTAINER

WARNING: 

Flow of fuel through a

fuel pump nozzle can produce static
electricity. This can cause a fire if you are
filling an ungrounded fuel container.

Use the following guidelines to avoid
electrostatic charge build-up, which can
produce a spark, when filling an
ungrounded fuel container:

Only use an approved fuel container to
transfer fuel to your vehicle.  Place the
container on the ground when filling it.

Do not fill a fuel container when it is
inside your vehicle (including the cargo
area).

Keep the fuel pump nozzle in contact
with the fuel container when filling it.

Do not use a device that holds the fuel
pump nozzle lever in the fill position.

ADDING FUEL FROM A PORTABLE
FUEL CONTAINER

WARNING: 

Do not insert the nozzle

of a fuel container or an aftermarket
funnel into the fuel filler neck. This may
damage the fuel system filler neck or its
seal and cause fuel to run onto the
ground.

WHAT IS THE CATALYTIC
CONVERTER

The catalytic converter is part of your
vehicle's emissions system and filters
harmful pollutants from the exhaust gas.

CATALYTIC CONVERTER
PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: 

Do not park, idle or

drive your vehicle on dry grass or other
dry ground cover. The emission system
heats up the engine compartment and
exhaust system, creating the risk of fire.

WARNING: 

The normal operating

temperature of the exhaust system is
very high. Never work around or attempt
to repair any part of the exhaust system
until it has cooled. Use special care when
working around the catalytic converter.
The catalytic converter heats up to a very
high temperature after only a short
period of engine operation and stays hot
after the engine is switched off.

WARNING: 

Exhaust leaks may

result in entry of harmful and potentially
lethal fumes into the passenger
compartment. If you smell exhaust
fumes inside your vehicle, have your
vehicle inspected immediately. Do not
drive if you smell exhaust fumes.

To avoid damaging the catalytic converter:

Do not crank the engine for more than
10 seconds at a time.

Do not run the engine with a spark plug
lead disconnected.

Do not push-start or tow-start your
vehicle. Use booster cables. See 

Jump

Starting the Vehicle

 (page 350).

Use the correct fuel. See 

Fuel and

Refueling

 (page 197).

Do not switch the ignition off when your
vehicle is moving.

Avoid running out of fuel.

Have the items listed in scheduled
maintenance information performed
according to the specified schedule.

Note:

Do not make any unauthorized

changes to your vehicle or engine. By law,
vehicle owners and anyone who
manufactures, repairs, or services a fleet of
vehicles are not permitted to intentionally
remove an emission control device or
prevent it from working.

WHAT IS THE HIGH VOLTAGE
BATTERY

The high voltage battery is a highly
sophisticated lithium ion battery system,
used to store electrified energy to power
the vehicle.

HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY
PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: 

This battery pack

should only be serviced by an authorized
electric vehicle technician. Improper
handling can result in personal injury or
death.

WARNING: 

Keep your hands and

clothing clear of the cooling fan.

Your vehicle consists of various
high-voltage components and wiring.  All
of the high-voltage power flows through
specific wiring assemblies labeled as such
or covered with a solid orange convolute,
or orange striped tape, or both.  Do not
come in contact with these components.

PRESERVING YOUR HIGH
VOLTAGE BATTERY

When using the battery at a low state of
charge, your vehicle could start disabling
accessory features to protect battery life.

If your vehicle reaches a 0% state of
charge, recharge your vehicle as soon as
possible.

In everyday use it is acceptable to use the
full state of charge window, however there
are a few best practices we recommend
in order to maintain the health and life of
your battery.

Overnight Charging

You can increase the longevity and
performance of your high voltage battery
by using the charge scheduling and
departure and comfort settings on your
touchscreen or in the FordPass app.

With Charge Scheduling you can improve
the high voltage battery's longevity by
delaying the start of charging and setting
a maximum charging limit. We recommend
to set your preferred charging times to start
at least 2-3 hours after your typical plug in
time. This allows the battery to cool before
charging begins. Additionally, setting the
maximum charge level to be less than
100% for everyday usage reduces strain
on the battery.

You can improve driving range and
performance by scheduling departure
times and cabin comfort level with the
Departure and Comfort features. This not
only warm or cool the cabin but also
condition the battery to ensure best driving
range and performance by the set
departure time.

DC Charging

Frequent use of DC charging could result
in reducing your battery's efficiency and
lifespan. See 

What is DC Charging

 (page

207).

Storage Temperature

Storing your vehicle in temperatures
between 32°F (0°C) and 113°F (45°C) is
the most beneficial for the high voltage
battery.

Plug in your vehicle at temperatures just
above the freezing point or lower to
maintain battery performance and
maximize driving range.

205

High Voltage Battery - Electric Motor

Storage State of Charge

You can increase the battery life by
maintaining your state of charge below
100%. When you park your vehicle for an
extended period of 30 days or more, we
recommend your battery be at an
approximately 50% state of charge.
Storing your vehicle's high voltage battery
at higher states of charge is less favorable
than storing at lower states of charge.

Note:

To achieve this state of charge for

storage, you can drive your vehicle down to
50% and set a charge limit for your location.
See 

Setting the Charging Schedule and

Preferences

 (page 222).

RECYCLING AND DISPOSING
OF THE HIGH VOLTAGE
BATTERY

Please recycle in accordance with local
regulations.

206

High Voltage Battery - Electric Motor

WHAT IS AC CHARGING

AC charging is the preferred method of
charging. AC charging preserves the health
of the high voltage battery for longer high
voltage battery life.

WHAT IS DC CHARGING

DC charging allows you to charge the
vehicle's high voltage battery in
significantly less time than the standard
charge method. You can charge on the go
before the battery has exhausted all of its
power, or when traveling using the trip
planner as part of your FordPass App.

For the convenience of DC charging and
time, there is a different fee structure
depending on the charging station and
network you choose.

Note:

Charge times could vary depending

on ambient air temperature, power level,
charger type, and location in which you are
charging.

Note:

The DC charging rate could be

reduced to maximize the life of the battery.
