The system saves vehicle energy by
relaxing acceleration, compared to
standard cruise control which only
maintains speed. For example your vehicle
may temporarily lose speed when going
uphill. When set on, ECO will appear in the
information display when cruise control is
switched on. You can switch this on or off
in the settings menu.
Low Engine Use
The low engine use mode is equipped on
Fusion Energi models only. The low engine
use mode will activate automatically when
you drive your vehicle with limited engine
use. The mode will maintain proper engine
lubrication at sufficient temperature. If your
vehicle is in low engine use mode when you
start the vehicle, a message will appear in
the information display. When your vehicle
is in low engine use mode, your vehicle will
automatically run the engine as necessary.
If you select the EV Now mode while the
vehicle is in the low engine use mode, EV
Now mode will be suspended for as long
as you are in low engine use mode. The low
engine use mode will resume the next time
you start your vehicle and will
automatically stop when no longer needed.
Note:
Cold temperatures will affect the
engine warm up time and the low engine
use mode may operate more frequently.
Note:
An oil change is not required but gives
you the option of not running a low engine
use cycle. Resetting the oil life monitoring
system will suspend the low engine use
mode.
