Waiting To Charge - Ford 2013 C-MAX HYBRID Owner's Manual

High Voltage Battery

Waiting to Charge

Note: See Charge Settings in the MyFord Touch Chapter for more
information.
When Value Charge has been selected charging may not begin upon
plugging in. The vehicle may delay charging to take advantage of
off-peak electricity rates. The vehicle will optimize the charge schedule
to be complete by the next GO Time.
When waiting to charge (not actively charging), the light ring will
indicate the present state of charge of the high voltage battery as
follows:
• When the top right quadrant is shut off the charge is between
0–25 percent.
• When the top right quadrant is solidly lit and the bottom right
quadrant is shut off the charge is between 25–50 percent.
• When both right side quadrants are solidly lit and the bottom left
quadrant is shut off the charge is between 50–75 percent.
• When three quadrants are solidly lit and the top left quadrant is shut
off the charge is between 75–100 percent.
• When the entire ring is solidly lit, the charge is 100 percent.
Note: When the vehicle is Waiting to Charge the light ring will shut off
one minute after displaying the present state of charge. When the vehicle
automatically begins charging the light ring will turn on and display how
far along the charge is per the section above.
Note: If a vehicle charging system fault is detected at any point in a
charge cycle the entire light ring will flash continuously for one minute
and then shut off. If this happens unplug, and then re-plug the charging
coupler into the charge port receptacle. If the problem persists contact
your authorized dealer.
The light ring illumination conditions can be modified. See the Charge
Port Light Ring Settings in the MyFord Touch chapter.
