FORD EXPEDITION 2020 Owners Manual

WARNING: The system cannot
help prevent all crashes. Do not rely on
this system to replace driver judgment
and the need to maintain a safe distance
and speed.
Using the Pre-Collision Assist
System
The pre-collision assist system is active at
speeds above approximately
3 mph
(5 km/h) and pedestrian detection is active
at speeds up to
50 mph (80 km/h). If your vehicle is rapidly approaching
another stationary vehicle, a vehicle
traveling in the same direction as yours, or
a pedestrian within your driving path, the
system is designed to provide three levels
of functionality:
1. Alert
2. Brake Support
3. Active Braking
Alert
: When active, a flashing visual
warning appears and an audible warning
tone sounds.
Brake Support
: The system is designed
to help reduce the impact speed by
preparing the brakes for rapid braking.
Brake support does not automatically
apply the brakes. If you press the brake
pedal, the system could apply additional
braking up to maximum braking force, even
if you lightly press the brake pedal.
Active Braking
: Active braking may
activate if the system determines that a
collision is imminent. The system may help
the driver reduce impact damage or avoid
the crash completely. Note:
Brake support and active braking are
active at speeds up to
75 mph (120 km/h).
If the vehicle has a radar sensor or adaptive
cruise control, then brake support and active
braking are active up to the maximum speed
of the vehicle.
Note: If you perceive pre-collision assist
alerts as being too frequent or disturbing,
then you can reduce the alert sensitivity,
though the manufacturer recommends
using the highest sensitivity setting where
possible. Setting lower sensitivity leads to
fewer and later system warnings.
Note: The system disables when you select
4x4 low, sand mode, mud/ruts mode or
when you manually disable AdvanceTrac ™.
Distance Indication and Alert
(If
Equipped)
This is a function that provides you with a
graphical indication of the time gap to
other preceding vehicles traveling in the
same direction. The distance indication
and alert screen in the information display
shows one of the following graphics.

If the time gap to a preceding vehicle is
small, a red visual indication appears.
Note:
Distance indication and alert
deactivates and the graphics do not display
when adaptive cruise control is active. Time Gap

Note:
If your vehicle has a radar sensor, we
recommend that you switch the system off
if you install a snowplow or similar object
in such a way that it could block the radar
sensor. Your vehicle remembers the selected
setting across key cycles.
Blocked Sensors If a message regarding a blocked sensor
or camera appears in the information
display, the radar signals or camera images
are obstructed. If your vehicle has a radar
sensor, it is located behind a fascia cover
near the driver side of the lower grille. With
an obstructed radar, the Pre-Collision
Assist system does not function and
cannot detect a vehicle ahead. With a
blocked sensor or camera, the
Pre-Collision Assist system may not
function, or performance may reduce. The
following table lists possible causes and
actions for when this message displays.
Camera Troubleshooting Action
Cause
Clean the outside of the windshield in frontof the camera.
The windshield in front of the camera is
dirty or obstructed in some way.
Wait a short time. It may take several
minutes for the camera to detect that there is no obstruction.
The windshield in front of the camera is
clean but the message remains in the display screen.

Radar Troubleshooting (If Equipped)
Action
Cause
Clean the grille surface in front of the radaror remove the object causing the obstruc- tion.
The surface of the radar in the grille is dirty
or obstructed in some way.
Wait a short time. It may take several
minutes for the radar to detect that there is no obstruction.
The surface of the radar in the grille is clean
but the message remains in the display screen.
The pre-collision assist system is tempor-
arily disabled. Pre-collision assist automat- ically reactivates a short time after the weather conditions improve.
Heavy rain, spray, snow or fog is interfering
with the radar signals.
The pre-collision assist system is tempor-
arily disabled. Pre-collision assist automat- ically reactivates a short time after the weather conditions improve.
Swirling water or snow or ice on the surface
of the road may interfere with the radar signals.
Contact an authorized dealer to have theradar checked for proper coverage and operation.
Radar is out of alignment due to a front-
end impact.
Note: Proper system operation requires a
clear view of the road by the camera. Have
any windshield damage in the area of the
camera's field of view repaired.
Note: If something hits the front end of your
vehicle or damage occurs, the radar sensing
zone may change. This could cause missed
or false vehicle detections. Contact an
authorized dealer to have the radar checked
for proper coverage and operation.
Note: If your vehicle detects excessive heat
at the camera or a potential misalignment
condition, a message could display in the
information display indicating temporary
sensor unavailability. This message
deactivates automatically when operational
conditions are correct. For example, when
the ambient temperature around the sensor
decreases or the sensor automatically
recalibrates successfully. DRIVE CONTROL
Selectable Drive Modes
The system delivers a driving experience
through a suite of sophisticated electronic
vehicle systems. These systems optimize
steering, handling and powertrain
response. This provides a single location
to control multiple systems performance
settings.
Changing the drive mode automatically
changes the functionality of the following
systems:
261
Expedition (TB8) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 201907, Third-Printing- Driving Aids

•
Electronically power-assisted steering
system adjusts steering effort and feel
based on the mode you select. See
Steering (page 256).
• Electronic stability control and traction
control maintain your vehicle control
in adverse conditions or high
performance driving. See
Stability
Control (page 214).
• Electronic throttle control enhances
the powertrain response to your inputs.
• Driveline settings optimize with shift
schedules tuned to each drive mode.
Using the System
The system automatically tailors your
vehicle configuration for each mode you
select.
The drive mode switch is in one of three
places, depending on your vehicle
configuration:
On the column shifter On the center console
On the
DRIVE MODE rotary switch.
Note:
Mode changes are not available when
the vehicle ignition is off or when the engine
is not running.
On-Road Modes Normal
- For everyday driving.
This mode is a perfect balance
of excitement, comfort and
convenience.

Sport - For aggressive on-road
driving. This mode increases
throttle response, provides a
sportier steering feel, along with quicker
shifting. The suspension stiffens, with an
emphasis on handling and control. The
transmission also holds gears longer,
helping your vehicle accelerate faster when
shifting gears. Tow/Haul
- For improved
transmission operation when
towing a trailer or a heavy load.
This mode moves upshifts to higher engine
speeds to reduce the frequency of
transmission shifting. This mode also
provides engine braking in all forward
gears, which slows your vehicle and assists
you in controlling your vehicle when
descending a grade. The amount of
downshift braking provided varies based
on the amount you press the brake pedal.
Note: All transmission gear ranges are
available when using
Tow/Haul. ECO
- For efficient and
responsible driving. This mode
helps deliver maximum fuel
efficiency and increases driving range.
Off-Road Modes Snow/Wet
(4X2) or Grass/
Gravel/Snow (4WD) - For firm
surfaces covered with loose or
slippery material such as packed
snow, ice, water, grass or a thin
layer of gravel or sand. Sand
- For soft dry sand or deep
gravel. Mud/Ruts
- For muddy, rutted,
soft or uneven terrain.
Note: The system has diagnostic checks
that continuously monitor the system for
proper operation. Certain drive modes are
not available based on gear shifter position.
If a mode is unavailable due to a system
fault, the mode defaults to
Normal.
