Principle of Operation
The system is designed to monitor certain
driving characteristics to help you drive
more efficiently. See Economical Driving
(page 219).
Note: The efficiency levels do not result in
a defined fuel consumption figure. See Fuel
Consumption (page 146).
Note: The system only indicates the
efficiency level for the current trip. The
system resets each time you switch the
ignition on.
Instantaneous Efficiency Level
The display ring increases as the
instantaneous efficiency level increases
and illuminates when it reaches maximum
efficiency. The level continuously updates
to indicate the efficiency level for the
current trip.
To view the instantaneous efficiency level, use the information display controls
on the steering wheel to select the following:

operate properly if your vehicle has a
non-Ford windshield. Do not carry out
windshield repairs in the area around the
sensor.
WARNING: You are responsible for
controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your vehicle,
personal injury or death.
WARNING: In situations where the
vehicle camera has limited detection
capability, this may reduce system
performance. These situations include
but are not limited to direct or low
sunlight, vehicles at night without tail
lights, unconventional vehicle types,
pedestrians with complex backgrounds,
running pedestrians, partly obscured
pedestrians, or pedestrians that the
system cannot distinguish from a group.
Failure to take care may result in the loss
of control of your vehicle, serious
personal injury or death.
WARNING: The system does not
operate during hard acceleration or
steering. Failure to take care may lead
to a crash or personal injury.
WARNING: The system may fail or
operate with reduced function during
cold and severe weather conditions.
Snow, ice, rain, spray and fog can
adversely affect the system. Keep the
front camera and radar free of snow and
ice. Failure to take care may result in the
loss of control of your vehicle, serious
personal injury or death.
WARNING:The Pre-Collision Assist
system with brake support cannot help
prevent all collisions. Do not rely on this
system to replace your judgment and the
need to maintain correct distance and
speed.

If your vehicle is rapidly approaching
another stationary vehicle, a vehicle or
cyclist traveling in the same direction as
yours, or a pedestrian within your driving
path, the system is designed to provide
three levels of functionality.

Description
Alert
When activated, a warning lamp flashes and an audible

Brake support
The system is designed to help reduce the impact speed by
preparing the brakes for rapid braking. The system does not
automatically apply the brakes. If you press the brake pedal,
the system could apply additional braking up to maximum
braking force, even if you lightly press the brake pedal.
Active braking - vehicles The system is designed to apply the brakes if it detects a
without adaptive cruise crash is imminent. This may help reduce impact or avoid the
control
crash.
The system is active at speeds up to 130 km/h (80 mph).
