Why does my Ford vehicle enter Deep Sleep mode?
Deep Sleep mode is designed to conserve your vehicle's battery power. This setting is activated when your vehicle falls under the following conditions:
- Vehicle inactivity for 14 consecutive days
- The battery voltage drops below 9.5 volts
- Extremely cold/hot weather conditions
For more information on deep sleep mode, refer to your Owner's Manual.
Turning Off Deep Sleep Mode
To turn off Deep Sleep Mode and restore your battery's health, manually start your vehicle using the push-button start or your key and drive the vehicle.
Notes:
- It may take 20–30 seconds for your modem to reconnect with the Ford app*.
- You may see an alert in the Ford app advising the vehicle is going into "Deep Sleep Mode" or "Battery Saver Mode." If you see either of these messages, you can restore the battery by restarting the engine and driving the vehicle.
If you need additional assistance, contact your Ford Dealer to schedule a service appointment.
If you are unable to start your vehicle, contact Roadside Assistance**.
