Ford Explorer: Auxiliary Power Points / Wireless Accessory Charging (If Equipped)

WARNING: Wireless charging devices can affect the operation of implanted medical devices, including cardiac pacemakers. If you have any implanted medical devices, we recommend that you consult with your physician.

Note: Devices without built-in Qi wireless charging receivers require an additional Qi receiver or sleeve.

The system supports one Qi wireless charging compatible device on the charging area.

Keep the charging area clean and remove foreign objects prior to charging a device.

Do not place items with a magnetic strip, for example passports, parking tickets or credit cards, near the charging area when charging a device. Damage may occur to the magnetic strip.

Do not place metal objects, for example remote controls, coins and candy wrappers, on or near the charging area when charging a device. Metal objects may heat up and degrade the charging performance.

Note: The rate of charge, or charging power, is controlled by the device. During charging, the device and the charger may heat up, this is normal. If the battery gets hotter than usual, the charger may stop charging.

The charging area is on the center console or lower instrument panel. See Center Console.

You can charge a device if the vehicle is on, when in accessory, mode or when SYNC is on.

To begin charging, place the device on the center of the charging surface with the charging side down. The charging stops after your device reaches a full charge.

Note: If the system detects a foreign object or if the device is misaligned on the charging area, a message appears in the display.

Note: Software and firmware updates may affect device compatibility, including the use of unofficial software or firmware. Customers should verify charging functionality with their specific devices in-vehicle.
