WHAT IS TRAIL TURN ASSIST
Trail turn assist can reduce the turningradius of your vehicle by applying thebrakes to the inside rear wheel inlow-speed, high steering-angle maneuvers.
TRAIL TURN ASSIST
PRECAUTIONS
Note:Do not use trail turn assist on dry,hard surfaced roads. Doing so can produceexcessive noise, increase tire wear and maydamage drive line, or braking components.Trail turn assist is only intended for slippery,or loose surfaces.
You may hear noise from the anti-lockbrake system while trail turn assist isactive. This is normal operation.
TRAIL TURN ASSIST
LIMITATIONS
Trail turn assist can only be used when thevehicle’s four-wheel drive system is in thefour-wheel drive high (4H), or four-wheeldrive low (4L) modes.
Trail Turn Assist cannot be used when thevehicle’s rear differential is locked. If therear differential has recently been lockedprior to Trail Turn Assist being turned on,Trail Turn Assist may not activate until itcan confirm that the rear differential isunlocked.

WHAT IS HILL DESCENT
CONTROL
Hill descent control allows the driver to setand maintain vehicle speed whiledescending steep slopes in various surfaceconditions.
HOW DOES HILL DESCENT
CONTROL WORK
Hill descent control can maintain vehiclespeeds on downhill slopes between2–20 mph (3–32 km/h). Above 20 mph(32 km/h), the system remains on but thedescent speed cannot be set ormaintained.
Note:The system does not function below2 mph (3 km/h).
The system requires a cool down intervalafter a period of sustained use. Hill descentcontrol provides a warning in the messagecenter when the system is about todisengage for cooling. At this time,manually apply the brakes as needed tomaintain descent speed.
Note:The amount of time that the systemcan remain active before cooling varies withconditions.
HILL DESCENT CONTROL

WARNING: The system may notdetect objects with surfaces that absorbreflection. Always drive with due careand attention. Failure to take care mayresult in a crash.
WARNING: Traffic control systems,fluorescent lamps, inclement weather,air brakes, external motors and fans mayaffect the correct operation of thesensing system. This may cause reducedperformance or false alerts.
WARNING: The system may notdetect small or moving objects,particularly those close to the ground.
WARNING: The parking aid systemcan only assist you to detect objectswhen your vehicle is moving at parkingspeeds. To help avoid personal injury youmust take care when using the parkingaid system.
WARNING: The system may notfunction if the sensor is blocked.
WARNING: In cold and severeweather conditions the system may notfunction. Rain, snow and spray can alllimit sensor performance.
WARNING: If damage occurs in theimmediate area surrounding the sensor,have your vehicle checked as soon aspossible.
Note:If your vehicle sustains damageleaving the sensors misaligned, this willcause inaccurate measurements or falsealerts.
When you connect a trailer to your vehicle,the rear parking aid detects the trailer andprovides an alert. Disable the parking aidwhen you connect a trailer to prevent thealert.
Note:Connected trailers might be detectedby the vehicle and parking aid turns offautomatically in those instances.
Note:Certain add-on devices installedaround the bumper or fascia may createfalse alerts, for example, large trailerhitches, bike or surfboard racks, license platebrackets, bumper covers or any other devicethat could block the normal detection zoneof the parking aid system. Aftermarket sparetires or spare tire covers mounted to the reartailgate could cause false alerts from thepark aid system. Remove the add-on deviceto prevent false alerts.
Note: Keep the sensors free from snow, iceand large accumulations of dirt. If thesensors are covered, the system's accuracycan be affected.
Do not clean the sensors with sharpobjects.

WARNING: Do not use the systemin poor visibility, for example fog, heavyrain, spray or snow.
When Following a Vehicle
WARNING: When following avehicle that is braking, your vehicle doesnot always decelerate quickly enough toavoid a crash without driver intervention.Apply the brakes when necessary. Failureto follow this instruction could result inpersonal injury or death.
Hilly Condition and Trailer TowUsage
You should select a lower gear when thesystem is active in situations such asprolonged downhill driving on steep slopes,for example in mountainous areas. Thesystem needs additional engine braking inthese situations to reduce the load on thevehicle’s regular brake system to preventit from overheating.
296
2023 Super Duty (TFH) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202211, DOMAdaptive Cruise Control (If Equipped)

Note:An audible alarm sounds and thesystem shuts down if it applies brakes foran extended period of time. This allows thebrakes to cool. The system functionsnormally again after the brakes cool.
Note:When towing with adaptive cruisecontrol, switch on Tow/Haul Mode andDiesel Engine Brake.
Note:Tow/Haul mode increases the timegaps and allows more distance for braking.
