HYBRID OPERATION The Hybrid is a whole new kind of SUV that combines electric and gasoline propulsion without compromise, to provide breakthrough performance and efficiency. It requires no special fuels and never has to be plugged in. Familiarizing yourself with these unique characteristics will help ensure optimal performance from your new vehicle.
Normal vehicle operation Starting: Turn the ignition key to the START position while your vehicle is in Park (P). The gas engine will turn on, accompanied by the green “ready indicator” light. Your engine may shut off shortly after starting, depending on temperature and battery charge level. This is a natural part of your hybrid’s fuel-saving features. The “ready indicator” light will stay on, and you do not need to restart the vehicle. Note: You may notice higher engine speeds upon start-up. This temporary condition is normal and necessary to heat up the cabin for occupant comfort. Driving: The gas engine automatically starts and stops to provide power when it’s needed and to save fuel when it’s not. While coasting at low speeds, coming to a stop, or standing, the gas engine normally shuts down and the vehicle operates in electric-only mode. Conditions that may cause the engine to start up or remain running include: • Driving request for moderate to rapid acceleration • Vehicle speed above 40 mph (65 kph) • Ascending a hill • ECON mode not selected (while Climate Control is ON) • Selection of climate control defrost mode or defrost/floor mode • Charge level of high voltage battery is low • Very high or low outside temperature (to provide system
cooling/heating)
Stopping: The gas engine may shut off to conserve fuel as you come to a stop. Restarting the vehicle is not required. Simply step on the accelerator when you are ready to drive.

Introduction
Transmission Operation: Due to the technologically advanced, electronically controlled Continuously Variable Transaxle (eCVT) you will not feel shift changes like those of a non-hybrid vehicle. Your hybrid’s transmission is designed to do its work seamlessly. Since your engine speed is controlled by the transmission, it may seem elevated at times. This is normal hybrid operation and helps deliver fuel efficiency and performance. Neutral: It is not recommended to idle the vehicle in (N) Neutral for extended periods of time because this will discharge your high voltage battery and decrease fuel economy. Also, the engine cannot provide power to the hybrid system in (N) Neutral. Low Gear: Low gear (L) is designed to mimic the enhanced engine braking available in non-hybrid vehicles. On long downhill grades, (L) Low gear may produce high engine speeds to provide necessary engine braking. This is normal and will not damage your vehicle. Response during acceleration should be the same as in the (D) Drive position. Reverse: (R) Reverse Gear vehicle speed is limited to 22 mph (35 km/h).
Unique Hybrid operating characteristics Your Hybrid, with its new technology, behaves differently compared to a non-hybrid. Here is a description of the major differences: Battery: Your Hybrid is equipped with a high voltage battery cooling system in the rear of the vehicle. A cool battery ensures battery life and provides the best possible performance. Your hybrid high voltage battery may periodically re-condition itself to ensure maximum efficiency. You may notice slight changes in drivability during this process, but it’s an important part of your Hybrid’s high voltage battery optimization features. You may hear a series of clicks from the cargo area when you first turn the key in the ignition. This sound is the high voltage contactors closing to allow you to start your hybrid. In addition, you may hear fan noise and a slight tapping sound from the rear as the vent door operates. This fan may continue to operate for short durations after the vehicle has been turned off. These noises are a customary part of hybrid operation and do not require service. The high voltage battery is cooled by cabin air drawn from vent holes in the front of the rear seat cushions. Avoid placing objects at the vent holes which block air flow to the high voltage battery.

Introduction
If the vehicle is left inoperative for over 31 days, it may be necessary to jumpstart the vehicle. For more information, refer to Jump starting your (Low voltage [underhood] battery only) in the Roadside Emergencies chapter and also refer to Low and high voltage battery — storage in the Maintenance and Specifications chapter. Engine: The engine speed in your hybrid is not directly tied to your vehicle speed. Your vehicle’s engine and transmission are designed to deliver the power you need at the most efficient engine speed. During heavy accelerations, your hybrid may reach high engine speeds (up to 6000 RPM). This is characteristic of the Atkinson cycle engine technology helping to maximize your hybrid’s fuel economy. In prolonged mountainous driving, you may see the engine tachometer changing without your input. This is intentional and maintains the battery charge level. You may also notice during extended downhill driving that your engine continues to run instead of shutting off. During this “engine braking”, the engine stays on, but it’s not using any fuel. You may also hear a slight whine or whistle when operating your vehicle. This is the normal operation of the electric generator in the hybrid system. During certain events (such as vehicle servicing) your low voltage (underhood) battery may become disconnected or disabled. When this occurs, and after reconnecting the low voltage (underhood) battery and driving the vehicle, the engine may continue to operate for 3-5 seconds after the key is turned to the off position. This is a normal condition, as the vehicle’s computers are relearning the operating characteristics of your particular engine in order to operate it at maximum efficiency. Braking: Your hybrid is equipped with standard hydraulic braking and regenerative braking. Regenerative braking is performed by your transmission and it captures brake energy and stores it in your high voltage battery.
Driving to optimize fuel economy Your fuel economy should improve throughout your hybrid’s break-in period. As with any vehicle, fuel economy can be significantly impacted by your driving habits and accessory usage. For best results, keep in mind these tips: Tire Inflation: Keep tires properly inflated and only use recommended size. Climate Control: Your hybrid is equipped with an “ECON” button that offers a more fuel efficient operation of your automatic temperature control system.
2009 Escape Hybrid (ehv) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)
Introduction
When activated, the “ECON” feature may allow the engine to shut down at low speeds or when your vehicle is stopped. If cooler temperature is desired, the “ECON” button can be turned off, for better interior cooling but lower fuel economy. The “ECON” mode turns itself off when you select defrost or defrost/floor mode, although on cold days, you may still experience engine shut-down while in defrost or defrost/floor mode. Drive Habits: Aggressive driving increases the amount of energy required to move your vehicle. In general, better fuel economy is achieved with mild to moderate acceleration and deceleration. Moderate braking is particularly important since it allows you to maximize the energy captured by the regenerative braking system. NOTE: Having your engine running is not always an indication of inefficiency – in some cases it is actually more efficient than driving in electric mode. Additional Tips: • Do not carry extra loads • Be mindful of adding external accessories that may increase • Observe posted speed limits • Perform all scheduled maintenance • There is no need to wait for your engine to “warm up”.

Answer The high voltage battery is electrically isolated from the rest of the vehicle when the key is OFF. When the key is turned ON, high voltage contactors inside the battery are closed to make the electricity available to the motor/generator and enable the vehicle to drive. The clicks are the sound of these contactors as they close and open during start up and shut down. Your engine is started at key-on because the emission components need to be warm in order to minimize tailpipe emissions, and in cooler climates for cabin heating and windshield defrost performance. There are several reasons the engine stays on for an extended amount of time when it is first started. One common reason is to ensure that the emissions components are warm enough to minimize tailpipe emissions. As the climate gets cooler, this “engine-ON” time is extended. The engine is required to turn on above this speed to protect the transaxle hardware. In order to ensure that the climate control system can begin heating the cabin and/or defrosting the windshield as soon as a driver requests it, the engine coolant temperature has to be kept sufficiently hot. Keeping the engine on is required to maintain the correct minimum temperature.

Introduction
Answer Your vehicle’s engine and transmission are designed to deliver the power you need at the most efficient engine speed. This may be higher than expected during heavy accelerations, and may fluctuate during steady state driving. These are characteristics of the Atkinson engine cycle and the eCVT transaxle technology that help maximize your hybrid’s fuel economy. Electricity is coming out of the battery when the gauge moves to the right. Electricity is going into the battery when the gauge moves to the left. The fan noise comes from two fans located inside the high voltage battery. These fans turn on when the battery requires cooling air. The fan speed, and associated noise level, will change according to the amount of cooling required to maintain good performance. Running out of gas is not recommended. However, you may be able to go about one mile, driving at 30 mph (48 km/h), if the battery has a normal state of charge. The engine oil should be changed every 10,000 miles (16,000 km) under normal operating conditions. See the Scheduled maintenance guide chapter. Your hybrid vehicle can use E10 (10% ethanol, 90% gasoline) fuel, but you may notice slightly reduced fuel economy because ethanol contains less energy per gallon than gasoline. Your hybrid vehicle is not designed to use E85 (85% ethanol).

Introduction
Question How long will my high voltage battery last? Does it need maintenance? Can you charge the battery with a plug into an A/C outlet?
What is the purpose of the ECON button?
Can I tow the hybrid behind my motor home with all four wheels down?
SPECIAL NOTICES
Answer The high voltage battery system is designed to last the life of the vehicle and requires no maintenance. There are no provisions for charging the high voltage battery from a power supply external to the vehicle. ECON mode may provide improved fuel economy by preventing the gasoline engine from running for the sole purpose of providing air conditioning. When the engine turns off, the A/C compressor does not operate and warm air may come out of the vents. In ECON mode, A/C operates as normal when the gasoline engine is running. Yes. Your hybrid vehicle can be “flat-towed” without modification. See the Recreational Towing section in the Tires, Wheels and Loading chapter for more information.

WARNING LIGHTS AND CHIMES
Warning lights and gauges can alert you to a vehicle condition that may become serious enough to cause extensive repairs. A warning light may illuminate when a problem exists with one of your vehicle’s functions. Many lights will illuminate when you start your vehicle to make sure the bulbs work. If any light remains on after starting the vehicle, refer to the respective system warning light for additional information. Service engine soon: The Service engine soon indicator light illuminates when the ignition is first turned to the on position to check the bulb and to indicate whether the vehicle is ready for Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) testing. Normally, the ⬙Service engine soon⬙ light will stay on until the engine is cranked, then turn itself off if no malfunctions are present. However, if after 15 seconds the ⬙Service engine soon⬙ light blinks eight times, it means that the vehicle is not ready for I/M testing. See the Readiness for Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) testing in the Maintenance and Specifications chapter. Solid illumination after the engine is started indicates the On Board Diagnostics System (OBD-II) has detected a malfunction. Refer to On board diagnostics (OBD-II) in the Maintenance and Specifications chapter. If the light is blinking, engine misfire is occurring which could damage your catalytic converter. Drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy acceleration and deceleration) and have your vehicle serviced immediately by your authorized dealer.

WARNING: Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust temperatures could damage the catalytic converter, the fuel
system, interior floor coverings or other vehicle components, possibly causing a fire.
BRAKE
Brake system warning light: To confirm the brake system warning light is functional, it will momentarily illuminate when the ignition is turned to the on position when the engine is not running, or in a position between on and start, or by applying the parking brake when the ignition is turned to the on position. If the brake system warning light does not illuminate at this time, seek service immediately from your authorized dealer. Illumination after releasing the parking brake indicates low brake fluid level or a brake system malfunction and the brake system should be inspected immediately by your authorized dealer.
WARNING: Driving a vehicle with the brake system warning light on is dangerous. A significant decrease in braking
performance may occur. It will take you longer to stop the vehicle. Have the vehicle checked by your authorized dealer. Driving extended distances with the parking brake engaged can cause brake failure and the risk of personal injury.
ABS
Anti-lock brake system: If the ABS light stays illuminated or continues to flash, a malfunction has been detected, have the system serviced immediately by your authorized dealer. Normal braking is still functional unless the brake warning light also is illuminated. Airbag readiness: If this light fails to illuminate when the ignition is turned to the on position, continues to flash or remains on, have the system serviced immediately by your authorized dealer. A chime will sound when there is a malfunction in the indicator light.
