side FORD EXPEDITION 2011 3.G Owner's Guide

Fold-away mirrors
Fold the side mirrors in carefully
before driving through a narrow
space, like an automatic car wash.
Powerfold mirrors (if equipped)
Rotate the 4–way adjustment switch
to the center position. Press the
switch down to auto fold in and
down again to auto fold back to
design position. Powerfold the side
mirrors in carefully when driving
through a narrow space, like an automatic car wash.
The mirrors may be moved inward/outward manually. If a mirror is
moved manually, it will need to be reset. To reset: with the switch in the
center position, press the switch down to fold the mirrors in and wait a
short period (eight seconds). An audible “click” will be heard indicating
re-synchronization. If the click is not heard, use the switch to fold the
mirrors out, then in, until the click is heard. After that, the mirrors will
operate to their normal positions until they are again moved manually.
Note:10 or more switch activations within one minute, or repeated
folding/unfolding of the mirrors while holding the switch rearward during
full travel, may cause the system to disable the fold/unfold function to
protect motors from overheating. Should this occur, wait approximately
three minutes with the vehicle running and up to 10 minutes with the
vehicle off, for the system to reset and for function to return to normal.
Heated outside mirrors
Both mirrors are heated automatically to remove ice, mist and fog when
the rear window defrost is activated.
Do not remove ice from the mirrors with a scraper or attempt to
readjust the mirror glass if it is frozen in place. These actions
could cause damage to the glass and mirrors.
Do not clean the housing or glass of any mirror with harsh
abrasives, fuel or other petroleum-based cleaning products.

running board motors, or the running board under body mounts to lift
the vehicle when jacking. Please utilize proper jacking points. Refer to

occur, causing the running boards not to deploy. Be sure that the
running boards have deployed, and have finished moving before
attempting to step on them. Note: The running boards will resume
normal function once the blockage is cleared.
WARNING:Turn off the running boards before jacking or
placing any object under the vehicle. Never place your hand
between the extended running board and the vehicle. A moving
running board may cause injury.

POWER LIFTGATE (IF EQUIPPED)
The liftgate can be operated by the following:
•Instrument panel control button
•Transmitter button
•Outside control button
•Control button in the rear cargo area
Note:The liftgate can be reversed with a second press on a control
button or transmitter and can be manually closed at any time.
Opening and closing the power liftgate:
WARNING:Make sure all persons are clear of the power liftgate
area before using the power liftgate control.
WARNING:Keep keys out of reach of children. Do not allow
children to play near an open or moving power liftgate.
The liftgate will only operate with the vehicle in P (Park). The chime will
beep once if conditions are not correct to start an operation. These
conditions include:
•The ignition is in on and the transmission is not in P (Park)
•The battery voltage is below the minimum operating voltage
•The vehicle speed is at or above 3 mph (5 km/h)
If the liftgate reverses and starts to close after a open request, a fast
continuous chime indicates excessive load on the gate or a possible strut
failure. If any excessive load is removed and you still have a faster
chime, have the system serviced immediately by your authorized dealer.
Do not attempt to manually force the liftgate to travel faster than the
power system will permit. This will activate the obstacle detection
feature.
Note:Cycling the ignition prior to completely latching the liftgate could
result in damage to the liftgate and/or its power components. Make sure
the liftgate is fully latched before operating the vehicle.
Care should be exercised in starting the engine before the liftgate is fully
closed (latched). If the ignition is cycled during a liftgate power close
cycle and the liftgate is 6-10 in. (15–24 cm) from being latched, the
liftgate may reverse to the full open position. Verify that the gate is

closed before operating or moving the vehicle, especially in an enclosure,
like a garage or a parking structure. The liftgate or it components could
be damaged in an enclosure, if the liftgate is open.

remote entry transmitter or power
door unlock control.
2. Press the control button located
on the inside of the liftgate handle.
Note:For the best performance
allow the power system to open the
liftgate after releasing the control button. Continued upward force after
unlatching may activate the obstacle detection feature and stop the
power operation.
Note:If weight is added to the gate (bike rack, snow, etc.) the gate may
automatically start a power close event immediately after a power open.
In this mode a unique continuous chime will sound.
