•Avoid towing in adverse weatherconditions. The trailer brake controllerdoes not provide anti-lock control ofthe trailer wheels. Trailer wheels canlock up on slippery surfaces, resultingin reduced stability of trailer and towvehicle.
•The trailer brake controller is only afactory-installed or dealer-installeditem. Ford is not responsible forwarranty or performance of thecontroller due to misuse or customerinstallation.
Note:Do not attempt removal of the trailerbrake controller without consulting theWorkshop Manual. Damage to the unit mayresult.
Note:Make sure to set the integrated trailerbrake controller gain to 0 if you are using anaftermarket trailer brake controller.
USING THE INTEGRATED
TRAILER BRAKE CONTROLLER
1.Make sure the trailer brakes are in goodworking condition, functioning normallyand properly adjusted. See your trailerdealer if necessary.
Note:An authorized dealer can diagnosethe trailer brake controller to determineexactly which trailer fault has occurred. Yourvehicle warranty does not cover issues withyour trailer.
2.Hook up the trailer and make theelectrical connections according to thetrailer manufacturer's instructions.
Note:Select default mode if the trailer hassurge brakes, or no brakes at all. The systemhas no effect on the braking performanceof the trailer in either of these cases.
Note:If a trailer is connected by a four-pinconnector, the trailer braking function willnot be supported.
3.When you plug in a trailer with electricor electric-over-hydraulic brakes, amessage confirming connectionappears in the information display.
4.Use the gain adjustment to find thedesired starting point. A gain setting of6.0 is a good starting point for heavierloads.
Note:Use the following steps to adjust thegain setting whenever road, weather andtrailer, or vehicle loading conditions, changefrom when you initially set the gain.
5.In a traffic-free environment, tow thetrailer on a dry, level surface andsqueeze the manual control levercompletely.

TRAILER BACKUP ASSISTANCE– FREQUENTLY ASKEDQUESTIONS
Why does the trailer not reversestraight?
Verify the sensor is correctly installed.Other factors such as the hitchconnection, road camber, road slopeand trailer suspension could influencehow straight the system can reversethe trailer when the control knob is notturned. You can compensate for thetrailer drifting to the right or left byslowly turning the knob until the traileris following your desired path and thenholding the knob in that position.
Why does the system not detect asensor?
There could be an issue with theconnection, the wiring harness couldbe damaged, you could have multiplesensors connected or the sensor couldbe incorrectly installed. Check that the12-way connector is fully inserted intothe 12-way socket. The red rubber sealis not visible when the connector isfully inserted. Also check that thewiring harness sensor connection isfully inserted at the trailer sensor, andcheck for damaged wiring betweenthe 12-way connector and the trailersensor. Also, check that the sensor isinstalled on a vertical surface with thearrows pointing straight up.
What does it mean if the systemremains on one message for anextended time during calibration whensetting up the system with the sticker?
The camera could need to be cleaned,the sticker could be blocked, thedrawbar could be outside the allowedrange of 4–19 in (10–48 cm) or youcould need to move to a different areato change the lighting and background.Verify the sticker is in the properlocation. See Applying the TrailerReversing Aid Sticker (page 388).You can move to a different area orchange the direction you are driving orsetup the system at a different timeof day. Some trailers are notcompatible with the sticker andcamera system. If the issue persistswith the sticker setup, you may chooseto setup the trailer with a sensor.
What does it mean if the system pausesduring calibration?
There could be steering input or trailermovement during the straight driveportion of the calibration process.
What does it mean if the systemremains on one message for anextended time during calibration whensetting up the system with the sensor?
The sensor could be incorrectlyinstalled, the trailer length could beoutside the allowed range or the roadsurface could be too rough or bumpy.
What does it mean if the systemdisplays hold steering steady duringturn?
Part of the calibration process for thesticker setup requires a steady turn. Ifyou are continually moving thesteering wheel during the turn, thisdelays the calibration process. Toenable the calibration process, holdthe steering wheel at the sameposition when turning.

What does it mean when the systemtells you to take control of the steeringwheel?
The system is no longer steering thevehicle and you must take oversteering. There are four reasons thesystem could display this message.The first reason the system coulddisplay this message is that you havetouched the steering wheel when thesystem is steering. The second reasonthe system could display this messageis that you have exceeded themaximum speed for the feature. Thethird reason the system could displaythis message is that the trailer is notdetected. The final reason the systemcould display this message is that aninternal condition for system operationis not met that requires your vehicle toreturn to manual control of thesteering.
How do I use a sticker if I havepreviously setup a trailer with thesensor?
Disconnect the sensor wiring and adda new trailer to the system and followthe instructions for setup with asticker. See Applying the TrailerReversing Aid Sticker (page 388). Ifyour vehicle does not support thesticker option, the touchscreeninstructs you to install the sensoragain.
What if I want to use a sensor for thetrailer instead of a sticker?
Install the sensor and connect thesensor wiring before adding the newtrailer to the system. You mustconnect the sensor before you add thetrailer. If your vehicle did not come witha sensor, you can purchase one fromyour authorized dealer.
What does it mean if the system doesnot detect a trailer that is setup with asticker?
The system requires a clear view of thesticker placed on the trailer. You mustkeep the camera lens and sticker cleanfor the system to correctly operate. Ifthe system cannot initially detect thetrailer, it could be necessary for you tochange the lighting conditions bymoving your vehicle and trailer orwaiting until the conditions change.See Applying the Trailer ReversingAid Sticker (page 388). Some trailersare not compatible with the stickerand camera system. If the systemconsistently does not detect the trailerwith the sticker setup, you may chooseto setup the trailer with a sensor.
Note:The system is designed to be usedwith the same trailer connection every timeyou choose the trailer from the touchscreen.When using a different drawbar or adifferent pin hole on drawbars with morethan one, connecting the drawbar to yourvehicle affects the trailer position and youmay need to repeat the trailer setup andcalibration process.

Note:If your vehicle came with a trailersensor kit, the vehicle will receive an updatethat allows the system to operate with asensor or sticker. If your vehicle did not comewith a trailer sensor kit, your vehicle can besetup using either method, but you need toseparately purchase the trailer sensor kitfrom your authorized dealer. Once yourvehicle is enabled for sticker setup, thedefault setup for new trailers requiresplacement of the sticker. To setup a trailerwith a sensor, install the sensor on the trailerand plug the connector into the connectorin your bumper prior to configuring thetrailer. Trailers that were set up with asensor still require the sensor to function.To change a trailer to use the sticker, deletethe trailer in the system and repeat thetrailer setup with the sticker.
CALIBRATING THE SYSTEM
Calibrating the system requires drivingforward and turning left or right. Follow theinstructions on the touchscreen tocomplete the calibration process.
Note:To calibrate the system, you need anarea where you can safely drive forward andturn left or right. An open parking lot is anideal place to perform the calibration.
Note:Keep the steering wheel straightwhen instructed to by the touchscreen. Ifthe steering wheel is in a turned positionduring this instruction, the calibrationpauses.
Note:During calibration, the systemdetermines the trailer length. The systemsupports trailer lengths of 6–33 ft(1.85–10.05 m) distance from the hitchpoint to the center of the axle or axles. Thesystem is designed to work with drawbarsthat have a license plate to hitch ball centermeasurement of 9–18 in (23–46 cm) wheninstalled. Do not attempt to use drawbarsor trailers that have a length outside of thisrange as the system performance degradesand could cause improper system function.
Note:The touchscreen shows if you aregoing too slow or fast. Calibration pauses ifthe speed is outside the required range of2–9 mph (4–15 km/h).
Note:You need to complete at least a 90°turn, and longer trailers could require a 180°turn. Camera trailer tracking requires thesystem to locate the hitch ball as well asdetermine the trailer length. Some trailerscould require you to drive straight then turnmultiple times before calibration completes.The touchscreen provides instructions andnotifies you when calibration completes.
Note:For best results, do not calibrate thesystem at night when calibrating the systemwith the sticker.

OFF-ROAD DRIVING
WHAT IS OFF-ROAD DRIVING
Off-road driving is driving your vehicle onunsurfaced roads or trails, made from dirt,rocks, sand and mud.
BASIC OFF-ROAD DRIVINGTECHNIQUES
Off-road Driving Hints
Before taking your vehicle off-roading, abasic vehicle inspection should be done tomake sure that the vehicle is in top workingcondition. It is always recommended thatat least two vehicles are used whileoff-roading. The buddy system helps makesure that help is close at hand should avehicle become stuck or damaged. It is alsowise to take supplies such as a first aid kit,supply of water, tow strap, cell or satellitephone with you any time an off-roadexcursion is planned.
1.Grip the steering wheel with thumbson the outside of the rim. This willreduce the risk of injury due to abruptsteering wheel motions that occurwhen negotiating rough terrain.
2.Throttle, brake and steering inputsshould be made in a smooth andcontrolled manner. Sudden inputs tothe controls can cause loss of tractionor upset the vehicle, especially whileon loose terrain or while crossingobstacles such as rocks or logs.
3.Look ahead on your route notingupcoming obstacles, or any otherfactors which may indicate a changein available traction, and adjust thevehicle speed and route accordingly.
4.When driving off-road, if the front orrear suspension is bottoming outand/or excessive contact with theskid-plates is encountered, reducevehicle speed to avoid potentialdamage to the vehicle.
5.When with other vehicles, it isrecommended that communication isused, and the lead vehicle notify othervehicles of obstacles that could causepotential vehicle damage.
6.Always keep available groundclearance in mind and pick a route thatminimizes the risk of catching theunderside of the vehicle on an obstacle.
7.When negotiating low speed obstacles,applying light brake pressure inconjunction with the throttle will helpprevent the vehicle from jerking andwill allow you to negotiate the obstaclein a more controlled manner. Using 4Lwill also help with this.
8.Off-roading requires a high degree ofconcentration. Even if your local lawdoes not prohibit alcohol use whiledriving off-road, Ford stronglyrecommends against drinking if youplan to off-road.
Crossing Obstacles
•Review the path ahead beforeattempting to cross any obstacle. It isbest if the obstacle is reviewed fromoutside the vehicle so that there is agood understanding of terrain conditionboth in front of and behind theobstacle.
•Approach obstacles slowly.

Mud
Be cautious of sudden changes in vehiclespeed or direction when you are driving inmud. Even all-wheel drive and four-wheeldrive vehicles can lose traction in mud. Ifyour vehicle slides, steer in the direction ofthe slide until you regain control of yourvehicle. After driving through mud, cleanoff residue stuck to rotating driveshaftsand tires. Excess residue can cause animbalance that could damage drivecomponents.
Water
If you must drive though deep water, driveslowly. The water could limit traction orbrake capability. See Driving ThroughWater Limitations (page 413).
FLOOR MATS
WARNING: Use a floor matdesigned to fit the footwell of yourvehicle that does not obstruct the pedalarea. Failure to follow this instructioncould result in the loss of control of yourvehicle, personal injury or death.
WARNING: Pedals that cannotmove freely can cause loss of vehiclecontrol and increase the risk of seriouspersonal injury.
WARNING: Secure the floor matto both retention devices so that itcannot slip out of position and interferewith the pedals. Failure to follow thisinstruction could result in the loss ofcontrol of your vehicle, personal injury ordeath.
WARNING: Do not place additionalfloor mats or any other covering on topof the original floor mats. This couldresult in the floor mat interfering with theoperation of the pedals. Failure to followthis instruction could result in the loss ofcontrol of your vehicle, personal injury ordeath.
WARNING: Always make sure thatobjects cannot fall into the driver footwell while your vehicle is moving. Objectsthat are loose can become trappedunder the pedals causing a loss ofvehicle control.
To install floor mats that have eyelets,position the floor mat eyelet over theretention post and press down to lock inposition. Repeat for all eyelets on the floormat.
To remove the floor mats, reverse theinstallation procedure.
