When Extended Range Mode is activated, it is crucial
that you recharge the FUV immediately after arriving at
your destination.
Letting the FUV sit while fully discharged in Extended
Range Mode can permanently damage the HV Batteries.
Battery damage due to improper use of Extended Range
Mode is not covered by the Warranty.
Cold Weather - Best Practices
As is the case for all EV vehicles, the FUV is affected by
cold temperatures. Generally, voltage and power output
tend to decline as temperatures approach freezing, which
may affect performance.
The FUV features several safeguards to protect the
battery
system in harsh cold weather conditions.
We recommend you follow these best practices when
driving in cold weather.
l
When you return home, keep your FUV plugged in.
The FUV is safe to be plugged in for any length of
time.
l
If the battery is cold when you begin driving, the
typical slowing effect that occurs when the KERS
Trigger Control is squeezed may be limited. In this
case, we recommend using the hydraulic foot
brake. Wait until you have less than 60 percent
state of charge to use the KERS Trigger Control for
slowing down the FUV.
l
Once you start driving and the battery begins to
warm up, your charge percentage may increase as
more energy in the pack is made available.
l
To prevent battery damage, the FUV automatically
prevents the charger from charging when the
battery temperature is below 32°F (0°C).
NOTE
The environmental temperature does not directly determine the
speed of charging. For example, a warm battery in freezing
outdoor temperatures will charge fine. However, if the battery is
allowed to cool off in freezing temperatures, charging will be
inhibited.
