back up camera LINCOLN MKT 2013 Owners Manual

WARNING:Back up as slow as possible since higher speeds
might limit your reaction time to stop the vehicle.
WARNING:Use caution when using the rear video camera and
the trunk is ajar. If the trunk is ajar, the camera will be out of
position and the video image may be incorrect. All guidelines (if
enabled) have been removed when the trunk is ajar.
WARNING:Use caution when turning camera features on or off
while in R (Reverse). Make sure the vehicle is not moving.
The rear view camera system provides a video image of the area behind
the vehicle.
During operation, lines appear in the display which represent your
vehicle’s path and proximity to objects behind the vehicle.
The camera is located on the
liftgate.
Using the Rear View Camera System
The rear view camera system displays what is behind your vehicle when
you place the transmission in R (Reverse). The system uses three types
of guides to help you see what is behind your vehicle:
1. Active guidelines: Show the intended path of the vehicle when
reversing.
2. Fixed guidelines: Show the actual path the vehicle is moving in while
reversing in a straight line, which can be helpful when backing into a
parking space or aligning the vehicle with another object behind the
vehicle.
3. Centerline: Helps align the center of the vehicle with an object (i.e. a
trailer).

System Display
When active the system will run automatically in the background and
only issue warning if required. You can view the status at any time using
the information display.
Select Information then Driver Alert to show the status screen in the
information display.
The alertness level is shown by six steps in a colored bar.
The current assessment of your
alertness is within a typical range.
The current assessment of your
alertness indicates that you should
rest as soon as safely possible.
The status bar will travel from left to right as the calculated alertness
level decreases. As the rest icon is approached the color turns from
green to yellow to red. The yellow position represents the first warning is
active and the red position represents the second warning is active.
Note:If you have recently received a warning; you should consider
resting, even if the current assessment is with the typical range.
Note:The alertness level will be show in grey if the camera sensor
cannot track the road lane markings or if the vehicle speed drops below
approximately 40 mph (65 km/h).
Resetting the System
You can reset the system by either:
•Switching the ignition off and on.
•Stopping the vehicle and then opening and closing the driver’s door.

can see the lane markings on the road?
Vehicle speed is outside the operational range of the feature
Sun is shining directly into the camera lens
Quick intentional lane change
Staying too close to the lane marking
Driving at high speeds in curves
Previous feature activation happened within the last one second
Ambiguous lane markings (mainly in construction zones)

Standing water on the road
Faint lane markings (partial yellow lane markings on concrete roads)

Why does the vehicle not come back into the middle of the lane
always, as expected, in the Aid or Aid + Alert mode?
