Ford Fusion Hybrid / Fusion Energi (2018 year). Manual — part 48

The fixed and active guidelines fade in and
out depending on the steering wheel
position. The active guidelines do not
display when the steering wheel position
is straight.

Always use caution while reversing.
Objects in the red zone are closest to your
vehicle and objects in the green zone are
farther away. Objects are getting closer to
your vehicle as they move from the green
zone to the yellow or red zones. Use the
side view mirrors and rear view mirror to
get better coverage on both sides and rear
of the vehicle.

(If

Equipped)

E190459

The system will provide an image of your
vehicle and the sensor zones. The zones
will highlight green, yellow and red when
the parking aid sensors detect an object in
the coverage area.

Manual Zoom

WARNING

When manual zoom is on, the full
area behind your vehicle may not
show. Be aware of your surroundings

when using the manual zoom feature.

Note: Manual zoom is only available when
the transmission is in reverse (R).

Note: When you enable manual zoom, only
the centerline is shown.

Selectable settings for this feature are
Zoom in (+) and Zoom out (-). Press the
symbol in the camera screen to change the
view. The default setting is Zoom OFF.

This allows you to get a closer view of an
object behind your vehicle. The zoomed
image keeps the bumper in the image to
provide a reference. The zoom is only
active while the transmission is in reverse
(R).

Rear Camera Delay

Selectable settings for this feature are ON
and OFF. The default setting for the rear
camera delay is OFF.

When shifting the transmission out of
reverse (R) and into any gear other than
park (P), the camera image remains in the
display until:
•

Your vehicle speed sufficiently
increases.

•

You shift your vehicle into park (P)
(automatic transmission).

•

You apply the parking brake (manual
transmission).

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

Cruise control lets you maintain a set
speed without keeping your foot on the
accelerator pedal. You can use cruise
control when your vehicle speed is greater
than 20 mph (30 km/h).

USING CRUISE CONTROL

WARNINGS

Do not use cruise control on winding
roads, in heavy traffic or when the
road surface is slippery. This could

result in loss of vehicle control, serious
injury or death.

When you are going downhill, your
vehicle speed could increase above
the set speed. The system does not

apply the brakes.

Note: Cruise control disengages if the
vehicle speed decreases more than 10 mph
(16 km/h) below the set speed when driving
uphill.

Note: When you are going downhill while
using cruise control, the battery charging
system and engine work together to help
maintain the set speed. Engine noise may
increase or decrease under these conditions.

E191246

The cruise controls are on the steering
wheel.

Switching Cruise Control On

Press ON.

E71340

The indicator appears in the
information display.

Setting the Cruise Speed

1.

Drive to desired speed.

2. Press SET+ or SET-.

3. Take your foot off the accelerator

pedal.

Note: The indicator changes color.

Changing the Set Speed

Note: If you accelerate by pressing the
accelerator pedal, the set speed will not
change. When you release the accelerator
pedal, your vehicle returns to the speed that
you previously set.

•

Press SET+ or SET- to change the set
speed in small increments.

•

Press the accelerator or brake pedal
until you reach the desired speed. Press
SET+ or SET-.

•

Press and hold SET+ or SET-. Release
the control when you reach the desired
speed.

Canceling the Set Speed

Press CAN or tap the brake pedal. The set
speed does not erase.

Resuming the Set Speed

Press RES.

Switching Cruise Control Off

Note: You erase the set speed when you
switch the system off.

Press OFF when the system is in standby
mode, or switch the ignition off.

Switching to ECO Cruise

Using cruise control with ECO Cruise
switched on may change the operation of
the system. This feature saves vehicle
energy by relaxing acceleration compared
to standard cruise control. For example,
your vehicle may temporarily lose speed
when going uphill.

For Energi vehicles, you can switch on ECO
Cruise using the information display.

For Hybrid vehicles, press ECO on the
center console.

For additional information, refer to ECO
Cruise and EcoSelect.

USING ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL

(If Equipped)

WARNINGS

Always pay close attention to
changing road conditions when using
adaptive cruise control. The system

does not replace attentive driving. Failing
to pay attention to the road may result in
a crash, serious injury or death.

Do not use the adaptive cruise
control when entering or leaving a
highway, on roads with intersections

or roundabouts or non-vehicular traffic or
roads that are winding, slippery, unpaved,
or steep slopes.

Do not use the system in poor
visibility, for example fog, heavy rain,
spray or snow.

Do not use the system when towing
a trailer with aftermarket trailer
brake controls. Aftermarket trailer

brakes will not function properly when you
switch the system on because the brakes
are electronically controlled. Failing to do
so may result in loss of vehicle control,
which could result in serious injury.

WARNINGS

Do not use tire sizes other than those
recommended because this can
affect the normal operation of the

system. Failure to do so may result in a loss
of vehicle control, which could result in
serious injury.

Adaptive cruise control may not
detect stationary or slow moving
vehicles below 6 mph (10 km/h).

Adaptive cruise control does not
detect pedestrians or objects in the
road.

Adaptive cruise control does not
detect oncoming vehicles in the
same lane.

Adaptive cruise control is not a crash
warning or avoidance system.

Note: It is your responsibility to stay alert,
drive safely and be in control of the vehicle
at all times.

The system adjusts your vehicle speed to
maintain the set gap between you and the
vehicle in front of you in the same lane.
You can select four gap settings.

The system uses a radar sensor that
projects a beam directly in front of your
vehicle.

Following a Vehicle

WARNINGS

When following a vehicle, your
vehicle does not always decelerate
quickly enough to avoid a crash

without driver intervention. Always apply
the brakes when necessary. Failing to do
so may result in a crash, serious injury or
death.

Adaptive cruise control only warns
of vehicles detected by the radar
sensor. In some cases there may be

no warning or a delayed warning. You
should always apply the brakes when
necessary. Failure to do so may result in a
crash, serious injury or death.

Note: When you are following a vehicle and
you switch on a direction indicator, adaptive
cruise control may provide a small
temporary acceleration to help you pass.

Note: The brakes may emit noise when
applied by the system.

When a vehicle ahead of you enters the
same lane or a slower vehicle is ahead in
the same lane, the vehicle speed adjusts
to maintain a preset gap distance. A
vehicle graphic illuminates in the
instrument cluster.
