After locating the white plastic funnel:
1. Slowly insert the funnel into the capless fuel
system.
2. Fill the vehicle with fuel from the portable fuel
container.
3. When done, clean the funnel or properly dispose
of it. Extra funnels can be purchased from your
authorized dealer if you choose to dispose of the funnel.
Note: For C-MAX Energi vehicles
press the fuel button located on the
instrument panel before performing
step 2.
FUEL CONSUMPTION
Filling the Tank
The advertised capacity is the indicated capacity and the empty reserve
combined. Indicated capacity is the difference in the amount of fuel in a
full tank and a tank when the fuel gauge indicates empty. Empty reserve
is the amount of fuel in the tank after the fuel gauge indicates empty.
Note: The amount of usable fuel in the empty reserve varies and should
not be relied upon to increase driving range. When refueling your vehicle
after the fuel gauge indicates empty, you might not be able to refuel the
full amount of the advertised capacity of the fuel tank due to the empty
reserve still present in the tank.
For consistent results when filling the fuel tank:
• Turn the ignition off before fueling; an inaccurate reading results if the
engine is left running.
• Use the same fill rate (low–medium–high) each time the tank is filled.
• Allow no more than two automatic click–offs when filling.
Results are most accurate when the filling method is consistent.
