Ford Mustang Mach-E (2022 year). Manual in english — page 17

Suppose your vehicle has a
1400-pound (635-kilogram) cargo
and luggage capacity. You and
one of your friends decide to pick
up cement from the local home
improvement store to finish that
patio you have been planning for
the past two years. Measuring the
inside of the vehicle with the rear
seat folded down, you have room
for twelve 100-pound
(45-kilogram) bags of cement. Do
you have enough load capacity to
transport the cement to your
home? If you and your friend each
weigh 220 pounds (99 kilograms),
the calculation would be: 1400 -
(2 x 220) - (12 x 100) = 1400 - 440
- 1200 = - 240 pounds. No, you do
not have enough cargo capacity
to carry that much weight. In
metric units, the calculation would
be: 635 kilograms - (2 x 99
kilograms) - (12 x 45 kilograms) =
635 - 198 - 540 = -103 kilograms.
You will need to reduce the load
weight by at least 240 pounds
(104 kilograms). If you remove
three 100-pound (45-kilogram)
cement bags, then the load
calculation would be: 1400 - (2 x
220) - (9 x 100) = 1400 - 440 -
900 = 60 pounds. Now you have
the load capacity to transport the
cement and your friend home. In
metric units, the calculation would
be: 635 kilograms - (2 x 99
kilograms) - (9 x 45 kilograms) =
635 - 198 - 405 = 32 kilograms.

The above calculations also
assume that the loads are
positioned in your vehicle in a
manner that does not overload
the front or the rear gross axle
weight rating specified for your
vehicle on the Safety Compliance
Certification label.

TOWING A TRAILER
PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:

Your vehicle is

not approved for trailer towing.
Never tow a trailer with your
vehicle.

280

Towing a Trailer

COLD WEATHER
PRECAUTIONS

The functional operation of some
components and systems can be affected
at temperatures below approximately
-13°F (-25°C).

DRIVING ON SNOW AND ICE

WARNING:

If you are driving in

slippery conditions that require tire
chains or cables, then it is critical that
you drive cautiously. Keep speeds down,
allow for longer stopping distances and
avoid aggressive steering to reduce the
chances of a loss of vehicle control
which can lead to serious injury or death.
If the rear end of your vehicle slides while
cornering, steer in the direction of the
slide until you regain control of your
vehicle.

On ice and snow, you should drive more
slowly than usual. Your vehicle has a four
wheel anti-lock brake system, do not pump
the brake pedal. See

Anti-Lock Braking

System Limitations

(page 186).

BREAKING-IN

You need to break in new tires for
approximately 300 mi (480 km). During
this time, your vehicle may exhibit some
unusual driving characteristics.

PERFORMANCE VEHICLE
PRECAUTIONS

Verify correct tire pressures.

Inspect wheels and tires for wear and
damage. Replace any damaged wheels
or tires.

Do not operate your vehicle at high
speeds with more than two passengers
or while carrying cargo.

It is recommended to cross speed
bumps or driveway inclines slowly and
at a 45° angle to reduce the risk of
vehicle damage.

Do not drive through car washes with
the vehicle heavily loaded with
passengers or luggage.

Use only commercial car washes
without mechanical tracks or hand
wash to avoid potential damage.

Put your vehicle in stay in neutral mode
when entering an automatic car wash.
See

What Is Temporary Neutral

Mode

(page 183).

DRIVING IN SPECIAL
CONDITIONS

EMERGENCY MANEUVERS

In an unavoidable emergency where you
must make a sudden sharp maneuver, turn
the steering wheel only as rapidly and as
far as required to avoid the emergency.
Apply smooth pressure to the accelerator
pedal or brake pedal as needed. Avoid
abrupt steering, acceleration and braking
changes. Abrupt changes could increase
the risk of vehicle roll over, loss of vehicle
control and personal injury. If possible, use
any available road surfaces to bring your
vehicle under control.

281

Driving Hints

DRIVING THROUGH MUD AND
WATER

Mud

Be cautious of sudden changes in vehicle
speed or direction when you are driving in
mud. Even all-wheel drive and four-wheel
drive vehicles can lose traction in mud. If
your vehicle slides, steer in the direction of
the slide until you regain control of your
vehicle. After driving through mud, clean
off residue stuck to rotating driveshafts
and tires. Excess residue can cause an
imbalance that could damage drive
components.

Note:

If your vehicle gets stuck in mud, it

could be rocked out by shifting between
forward and reverse gears, stopping
between shifts in a steady pattern. Press
lightly on the accelerator in each gear.

Water

If you must drive through water approach
it cautiously. See

Driving Through

Shallow Water

(page 284).

DRIVING ON HILLY OR SLOPING
TERRAIN

Although natural obstacles could make it
necessary to travel diagonally up or down
a hill or steep incline, you should try to drive
straight up or straight down.

Note:

Avoid turning on steep slopes or hills.

A danger lies in losing traction, slipping
sideways and possible vehicle roll over.
Whenever driving on a hill, determine
beforehand the route you can use. Do not
drive over the crest of a hill without seeing
what conditions are on the other side. Do
not drive in reverse over a hill without the
aid of an observer.

Apply just enough power to the wheels to
climb the hill. Too much power causes the
tires to slip, spin or lose traction, and you
could lose control of your vehicle. When
descending a steep hill, do not descend
the hill in neutral. Avoid sudden hard
braking to keep the front wheels rolling and
to maintain your vehicle's steering.

Note:

Your vehicle has anti-lock brakes,

apply the brakes steadily. Do not pump the
brakes.

Note:

If your vehicle gets stuck driving on

hilly or sloping terrain, it could be rocked out
by shifting between forward and reverse
gears, stopping between shifts in a steady
pattern. Press lightly on the accelerator in
each gear.

DRIVING IN SAND

When driving over sand, try to keep all four
wheels on the most solid area of the trail.
Shift to a lower gear and drive steadily
through the terrain. Apply the accelerator
slowly and avoid excessive wheel slip. Do
not drive your vehicle in deep sand for an
extended period of time. This could
overheat the system. A message appears
in the information display. See

All-Wheel

Drive – Information Messages

(page

185).

Note:

If your vehicle gets stuck driving on

hilly or sloping terrain, it could be rocked out
by shifting between forward and reverse
gears, stopping between shifts in a steady
pattern. Press lightly on the accelerator in
each gear.

ELECTRIC VEHICLE

MAXIMIZING YOUR DRIVING
RANGE

Driving in Cold Weather

Keep your vehicle charged before heading
out into cold weather.

Use the heated seats and steering wheel
for comfort along with moderate cabin
temperature and fan settings to reduce
energy needed for climate control.

Preconditioning Your Vehicle

You can precondition your vehicle by using
departure and comfort settings to warm
or cool your cabin and the high voltage
battery when your vehicle is plugged in. By
using energy from your charging source
prior to your departure, battery
temperature can be managed for best
driving performance and less energy will
be needed for heating or cooling of the
cabin at the start of your drive. This helps
maximize your driving range. See

Setting

the Charging Schedule and Preferences

(page 174).

Note:

You can also access departure and

comfort settings using the FordPass App.

Note:

Lower cabin temperature settings on

the climate control system results in better
trip range.

Parking Your Vehicle

At temperatures just above the freezing
point and lower, plug your vehicle in when
not in use to maintain high voltage battery
performance.

When possible park your vehicle under a
covered area or in a garage. This will help
to moderate temperatures which affect
performance of the high voltage battery
and require energy to heat or cool the
cabin.

Driving Style

Range is reduced when driving aggressively
or at consistently high speeds. Aggressive
driving for extended periods could also
result in reducing your battery’s efficiency
and lifespan. Use the trip application on
your touchscreen to see your driving scores.
See

Trip Data

(page 125).

DRIVING IN COLD WEATHER

Pack a small supply kit with a 12 V jump
box, blanket, snow scraper and gloves
during winter.

We recommend winter tires with sufficient
tread depth for traction.

Clear snow and ice from the roof, hood, all
windows and mirrors. Remove piled up
snow or ice from the wipers and washer
nozzles. Allow time for windows to defrost
and interior controls to warm up before
driving.

Preconditioning Your Vehicle

You can precondition your vehicle to warm
or cool your cabin and the high voltage
battery when your vehicle is plugged in.
You can charge your vehicle to the targeted
level and also make sure your vehicle is at
a comfortable temperature for the
occupants.

Note:

You can precondition your vehicle

prior to your departure using the FordPass
App.

Keep your vehicle fully charged before
heading out into cold weather.

Note:

In extreme climates you could

experience reduced drive ranges or
performance due to heating of the battery
and cabin to the preferred temperature.

Note:

Using seat heaters is more efficient

for warming occupants than using the heat
from the climate control.

283

Driving Hints

Note:

Lower cabin temperature settings on

the climate control system results in better
trip range.

DRIVING THROUGH SHALLOW
WATER

WARNING:

Do not attempt to

cross a deep or flowing body of water.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death.

Note:

Driving through standing water can

cause vehicle damage.

Before driving through standing water,
check the depth. Never drive through water
that is higher than the bottom of the front
rocker area of your vehicle.

E266447

When driving through standing water, drive
very slowly and do not stop your vehicle.
Your brake performance and traction could
be limited. After driving through water and
as soon as it is safe to do so:

Lightly press the brake pedal to dry the
brakes and to check that they work.

Turn the steering wheel to check that
the steering power assist works.

Check the function of the following:

Horn

Exterior lights

FLOOR MATS

WARNING:

Use a floor mat

designed to fit the footwell of your
vehicle that does not obstruct the pedal
area. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death.

WARNING:

Pedals that cannot

move freely can cause loss of vehicle
control and increase the risk of serious
personal injury.

WARNING:

Secure the floor mat

to both retention devices so that it
cannot slip out of position and interfere
with the pedals. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in the loss of
control of your vehicle, personal injury or
death.

WARNING:

Do not place additional

floor mats or any other covering on top
of the original floor mats. This could
result in the floor mat interfering with the
operation of the pedals. Failure to follow
this instruction could result in the loss of
control of your vehicle, personal injury or
death.

WARNING:

Always make sure that

objects cannot fall into the driver foot
well while your vehicle is moving. Objects
that are loose can become trapped
under the pedals causing a loss of
vehicle control.

284

Driving Hints

E142666

To install the floor mats, position the floor
mat eyelet over the retention post and
press down to lock in position.
