The system sounds an audible warning
when obstacles are near either bumper in
the following manner:
•
Objects detected by the front sensors
are indicated by a high-pitched tone
from the front of the vehicle.
• Objects detected by the rear sensors
are indicated by a lower pitched tone
from the rear of the vehicle.
• The sensing system reports the
obstacle which is closest to the front
or rear of the vehicle. For example, if
an obstacle is 12 in (30 cm) from the
front of the vehicle and, at the same
time, an obstacle is only
6 in (15 cm)
from the rear of the vehicle, the lower
pitched tone sounds.
• An alternating warning sounds from
the front and rear if there are objects
at both bumpers that are closer than
12 in (30 cm)
.
The system provides warnings when your
vehicle is moving or when your vehicle is
stationary and the detected obstacle is
less than
12 in (30 cm) away from the
bumper.
REAR VIEW CAMERA WARNINGS
The rear view camera system is a
reverse aid supplement device that
still requires the driver to use it in
conjunction with the interior and exterior
mirrors for maximum coverage. Objects that are close to either
corner of the bumper or under the
bumper, might not be seen on the
screen due to the limited coverage of the
camera system. Back up as slow as possible since
higher speeds might limit your
reaction time to stop your vehicle. WARNINGS
Use caution when using the rear
video camera and the luggage
compartment door is ajar. If the
luggage compartment door is ajar, the
camera will be out of position and the
video image may be incorrect. All
guidelines disappear when the luggage
compartment door is ajar. Use caution when turning camera
features on or off. Make sure your
vehicle is not moving.
The rear view camera system provides a
video image of the area behind your
vehicle.
During operation, lines appear in the
display which represent your vehicle
’s path
and proximity to objects behind your
vehicle. The camera is located on the luggage
compartment door.
Using the Rear View Camera
System
The rear view camera system displays
what is behind your vehicle when you place
the transmission in reverse (R).
184
Expedition (TB7) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 03/2016, First Printing Parking AidsE142435
Page 188 of 500

The system uses two types of guides to
help you see what is behind your vehicle:
•
Fixed guidelines: Show the actual path
your vehicle is moving in while reversing
in a straight line. This can be helpful
when backing into a parking space or
aligning your vehicle with another
object behind you.
• Centerline: Helps align the center of
your vehicle with an object (for
example, a trailer).
Note: The image may remain on
momentarily when you shift the
transmission out of reverse (R). If your
vehicle speed reaches 6 mph (10 km/h) or
10 seconds elapse and the image remains
on, have your system inspected by an
authorized dealer.
Note: When towing, the camera only sees
what you are towing behind your vehicle.
This might not provide adequate coverage
as it usually provides in normal operation
and you might not see some objects. In
some vehicles, the guidelines may disappear
once you engage the trailer tow connector.
The camera may not operate correctly
under the following conditions:
• Nighttime or dark areas if one or both
reverse lamps are not operating.
• Mud, water or debris obstructs the
camera's view. Clean the lens with a
soft, lint-free cloth and non-abrasive
cleaner.
• The camera is misaligned due to
damage to the rear of your vehicle.
Camera Guidelines
Note: Fixed guidelines are only available
when the transmission is in reverse (R).
Note: The centerline is only available if
fixed guidelines are on. Rear bumper
A
Fixed guideline: Red Zone

Always use caution while reversing.
Objects in the red zone are closest to your
vehicle and objects in the green zone are
farther away. Objects are getting closer to
your vehicle as they move from the green
zone to the yellow or red zones. Use the
side view mirrors and rear view mirror to
get better coverage on both sides and rear
of the vehicle.
Camera System Settings
Rear view camera system settings can be
accessed through the multifunctional
display. See General Information (page
91).

BLIND SPOT INFORMATION
SYSTEM
WARNING
Never use the Blind Spot
Information System as a
replacement for using the interior
and exterior mirrors or looking over your
shoulder before changing lanes. The Blind
Spot Information System is not a
replacement for careful driving. The Blind Spot Information System is
designed to aid you in detecting vehicles
that may have entered the blind spot zone
(A). The detection area is on both sides of
your vehicle, extending rearward from the
exterior mirrors to approximately
10 ft
(3 m) beyond the bumper. The system is
designed to alert you if certain vehicles
enter the blind spot zone while driving.
Cross Traffic Alert warns the driver of
vehicles approaching from the sides when
the transmission is in reverse (R). Note:
The Blind Spot Information System
does not prevent contact with other vehicles
or objects; nor detect parked vehicles,
people, animals or infrastructure (fences,
guardrails, trees). It’ s only designed to alert
you to vehicles in the blind spot zones.
Note: When a vehicle passes quickly
through the blind spot zone, typically fewer
than two seconds, the system does not
trigger.
Using the System
The Blind Spot Information System turns
on when you start the engine and you drive
your vehicle forward above
3 mph
(5 km/h). It remains on while the
transmission is in drive (D) or neutral (N).
If shifted out of drive (D) or neutral (N),
the system enters Cross Traffic Alert mode.
Once shifted back into drive (D), the Blind
Spot Information System turns back on
when the vehicle is driven above
3 mph
(5 km/h).
Note: The Blind Spot Information System
does not function in reverse (R) or park (P)
or provide any additional warning when a
turn signal is on.
Cross Traffic Alert detects approaching
vehicles from up to
46 ft (14 m) away
though coverage decreases when the
sensors are blocked. Reversing slowly
helps increase the coverage area and
effectiveness. WARNING
Never
use the Cross Traffic Alert
system as a replacement for using
the interior and exterior mirrors and
looking over your shoulder before backing
out of a parking space. Cross Traffic Alert
is not a replacement for careful driving. In this first example, the left sensor is only
partially obstructed; zone coverage to the
right is nearly maximized.

System Lights and Messages
The Blind Spot Information and Cross
Traffic Alert systems illuminate an amber
alert indicator in the outside mirror on the
side of your vehicle the approaching
vehicle is coming from.
The alert indicator dims when the system
detects nighttime darkness.
Cross Traffic Alert sounds also sounds an
audible alarm and a message appears in
the information display indicating a vehicle
is coming from the right or left. Cross
Traffic Alert works with the reverse sensing
system which sounds its own audible
alarm. See Rear Parking Aid (page 182).
System Sensor Blockage
WARNING
Never use the Blind Spot
Information System as a
replacement for using the interior
and exterior mirrors or looking over your
shoulder before changing lanes. The Blind
Spot Information System is not a
replacement for careful driving. Note:
It is possible to get a blockage
warning with no blockage present; this is
rare and known as a false blockage warning.
A false blocked condition either
self-corrects or clears after a key cycle. The system uses radar sensors which are
located behind the bumper fascia on each
side of your vehicle. Do not allow these
areas to become obstructed by mud, snow
or bumper stickers, as this can cause
degraded system performance.
If the system detects a degraded
performance condition, a blocked sensor
warning or low visibility warning will appear
in the information display and the alert
indicator illuminates in the appropriate
mirror(s). The information display warning
can be cleared but the alert indicator
remains illuminated.

Switching the System Off and On
One or both systems can be switched off
temporarily by using the information
display control; See Information
Displays (page 91). . When you switch off
the Blind Spot Information System, you
will not receive alerts and the information
display will display a system off message.
The yellow alert indicator in the outside
mirror will also flash twice. The system
switches back on whenever you switch the
ignition on.
You can also have the Blind Spot
Information System switched off
permanently at an authorized dealer. Once
switched off permanently, the system can
only be switched back on at an authorized
dealer.
STEERING
Electric Power Steering WARNINGS
The electric power steering system
has diagnostic checks that
continuously monitor the system. If
a fault is detected, a message displays in
the information display. Stop your vehicle
as soon as it is safe to do so. Switch the
ignition off. After at least 10 seconds,
switch the ignition on and watch the
information display for a steering system
warning message. If a steering system
warning message returns, have the system
checked by an authorized dealer. If the system detects an error, you
may not feel a difference in the
steering, however a serious condition
may exist. Obtain immediate service from
an authorized dealer, failure to do so may
result in loss of steering control. Your vehicle has an electric power steering
system. There is no fluid reservoir. No
maintenance is required.
If your vehicle loses electrical power while
you are driving, electric power steering
assistance is lost. The steering system still
operates and you can steer your vehicle
manually. Manually steering your vehicle
requires more effort.
Extreme continuous steering may increase
the effort required for you to steer your
vehicle. This increased effort prevents
overheating and permanent damage to
the steering system. You do not lose the
ability to steer your vehicle manually.
Typical steering and driving maneuvers
allow the system to cool and return to
normal operation.
Steering Tips
If the steering wanders or pulls, check for:
•
Correct tire pressures.
• Uneven tire wear.
• Loose or worn suspension
components.
• Loose or worn steering components.
• Improper vehicle alignment.
Note: A high crown in the road or high
crosswinds may also make the steering
seem to wander or pull.
Adaptive Learning
The electronic power steering system
adaptive learning helps correct road
irregularities and improves overall handling
and steering feel. It communicates with
the brake system to help operate
advanced stability control and accident
avoidance systems. Additionally, whenever
the battery is disconnected or a new
battery installed, you must drive your
vehicle a short distance before the system
relearns the strategy and reactivates all
systems.
