The remaining portion is generated by standard friction braking. When the battery is almost fully charged, the amount of regenerative braking is limited to avoid overcharging, and the requested deceleration is produced by standard friction braking alone. Regenerative braking does not take the place of the standard friction brakes; it only assists them. Regenerative braking has also been designed to interact with the anti-lock brake system. Regenerative braking is disabled when the anti-lock brake system is activated or the battery is fully charged. WARNING Always set the parking brake and leave your vehicle with the transmission in park (P). Note: When you apply the electric parking brake in certain conditions, for example, on a steep hill, the electric parking brake may reapply the brakes within three to ten minutes. Note: You may notice various noises when you apply and release the electric parking brake. This is normal and no cause for concern. Applying the electric parking brake WARNING If the brake system warning lamp does not illuminate or flashes, there could be a problem with your electric parking brake. Have the system checked by an authorized dealer as soon as possible. Note: The brake system warning lamp will illuminate for ten seconds, if the ignition is turned off after the electric parking brake has been applied, or the electric parking brake has been applied after the ignition has been turned off. Note: The electric parking brake will not automatically apply. You must apply the electric parking brake using the electric parking brake switch. HINTS ON DRIVING WITH ANTI-LOCK BRAKES Note: When the system is operating, the brake pedal will pulse and may travel further. Maintain pressure on the brake pedal. You may also hear a noise from the system. This is normal. The anti-lock braking system will not eliminate the risks when: • You drive too closely to the vehicle in front of you. • Your vehicle is hydroplaning. • You take corners too fast. • The road surface is poor. ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE The electric parking brake replaces the conventional handbrake. The operating switch is located in the center console. 180 Fusion/Mondeo (CC7), enUSA

When you release the accelerator pedal or

press the brake pedal, the brake controller

automatically detects the amount of

deceleration requested and optimizes how

much of the deceleration will be produced

by regenerative braking. The remaining

portion is generated by standard friction

braking. When the battery is almost fully

charged, the amount of regenerative

braking is limited to avoid overcharging,

and the requested deceleration is

produced by standard friction braking

alone.

Regenerative braking does not take the

place of the standard friction brakes; it only

assists them. Regenerative braking has

also been designed to interact with the

anti-lock brake system. Regenerative

braking is disabled when the anti-lock

brake system is activated or the battery is

fully charged.

HINTS ON DRIVING WITH

ANTI-LOCK BRAKES

Note:

When the system is operating, the

brake pedal will pulse and may travel

further. Maintain pressure on the brake

pedal. You may also hear a noise from the

system. This is normal.

The anti-lock braking system will not

eliminate the risks when:

•

You drive too closely to the vehicle in

front of you.

•

Your vehicle is hydroplaning.

•

You take corners too fast.

•

The road surface is poor.

ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE

The electric parking brake replaces the

conventional handbrake. The operating

switch is located in the center console.

WARNING

Always set the parking brake and

leave your vehicle with the

transmission in park

(P).

Note:

When you apply the electric parking

brake in certain conditions, for example, on

a steep hill, the electric parking brake may

reapply the brakes within three to ten

minutes.

Note:

You may notice various noises when

you apply and release the electric parking

brake. This is normal and no cause for

concern.

Applying the electric parking brake

WARNING

If the brake system warning lamp

does not illuminate or flashes, there

could be a problem with your electric

parking brake. Have the system checked

by an authorized dealer as soon as

possible.

Note:

The brake system warning lamp will

illuminate for ten seconds, if the ignition is

turned off after the electric parking brake

has been applied, or the electric parking

brake has been applied after the ignition has

been turned off.

Note:

The electric parking brake will not

automatically apply. You must apply the

electric parking brake using the electric

parking brake switch.
