Fuel and Refueling Note: EV Now can resume if less than 1 gal (3.8 L) of fuel is left in the tank. Note: In most cases, when the fuel level is below one-quarter tank, refueling the vehicle will end fuel freshness mode and then EV Now will become available. Refueling after consuming a full tank in fuel freshness mode will end the mode. Note: The recommendation is that you use a fuel stabilizer if you consume less than a full tank of fuel during an 18-month period. Refilling With a Portable Fuel Container (Except Energi Vehicles) WARNINGS Do not insert the nozzle of portable fuel containers or aftermarket funnels into the capless fuel system. This could damage the fuel system and its seal, and may cause fuel to run onto the ground instead of filling the tank, which could result in serious personal injury. Do not try to pry open or push open the capless fuel system with foreign objects. This could damage the fuel system and its seal and cause injury to you or others. Note: Do not use aftermarket funnels. They will not work with the capless fuel system and can damage it. We have specially designed the included funnel to work safely with your vehicle. When filling your vehicle's fuel tank from a portable fuel container, use the funnel included with your vehicle. RUNNING OUT OF FUEL Avoid running out of fuel because this situation may have an adverse effect on vehicle components. If you have run out of fuel: • To start your vehicle with a keyless ignition, just start the engine. Crank time will be longer than usual. Normally, adding 1 gal (3.8 L) of fuel is enough to restart the vehicle. If the vehicle is out of fuel and on a steep grade, more than 1 gal (3.8 L) may be required. The service engine soon indicator may come on. • • 158 Fusion/Mondeo (CC7), enUSA
