LANE KEEPING SYSTEM WARNING: You are responsible for
controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your vehicle,
personal injury or death. WARNING: The system may not
function if the sensor is blocked. WARNING:
The sensor may
incorrectly track lane markings as other
structures or objects. This can result in
a false or missed warning. WARNING:
In cold and severe
weather conditions the system may not
function. Rain, snow and spray can all
limit sensor performance. WARNING:
Large contrasts in
outside lighting can limit sensor
performance. WARNING:
The system will not
operate if the sensor cannot track the
road lane markings. WARNING:
If damage occurs in the
immediate area surrounding the sensor,
have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible. WARNING:
The system may not
correctly operate if your vehicle is fitted
with a suspension kit not approved by
us.
The system is designed to alert you by
providing temporary steering assistance
or steering wheel vibration when it detects
an unintended lane departure. The system
detects and tracks the road lane markings
using a camera mounted behind the
interior mirror. The system only operates
when the vehicle speed is greater than
approximately
37 mph (60 km/h). You
can view the system status in the
information display.
Note: The system works when the camera
can detect at least one lane marking or the
edge of the road.
The system may not correctly operate in
any of the following conditions:
• The system does not detect at least
one lane marking or the edge of the
road.
• You switch the direction indicator on.
• You apply direct steering, accelerate
fast or brake hard.
• The vehicle speed is less than
37 mph
(60 km/h).

the vehicle speed is greater than 30 mph
(48 km/h) to alert you of faster
approaching vehicles.
Note: The system does not prevent contact
with other vehicles. It is not designed to
detect parked vehicles, pedestrians, animals
or other infrastructures.

When you switch the system off, a warning
lamp illuminates in the instrument cluster
and the alert indicators flash twice.
The system remembers the last setting
when you start your vehicle.
Note:
The system may not correctly operate
when towing a trailer. The system turns off

bar. For vehicles with an aftermarket trailer
tow module or tow bar, turn the system off
when you attach a trailer.
To permanently switch the system off,
contact an authorized dealer.
Blind Spot Information System

Blind Spot Information System
with Trailer Tow The blind spot information system with
trailer tow is designed to detect vehicles
that may have entered the blind spot zone.
The detection area is on both sides of your
vehicle and trailer, extending rearward
from the exterior mirrors to the end of your
trailer. When you attach a trailer and have
set up a trailer, the blind spot information
system with trailer tow becomes active
when driving forward above 6 mph
(10 km/h).

Blind Spot Information System
Limitations
Some trailers may cause a slight change
in system performance:
• Wide box trailers, especially those
wider than the towing vehicle, may
cause false alerts to occur when driving
next to infrastructure or near parked
cars. A false alert may also occur while
making a 90-degree turn or driving
through a roundabout.
• Wide trailers that have a total length
greater than
20 ft (6 m) may cause
delayed alerts when a vehicle is
passing at high speed.
• Box trailers that have a width greater
than
8.2 ft (2.5 m) may cause early
alerts when you pass a vehicle.
• Clam shell or V-Nose box trailers with
a width greater than 8.2 ft (2.5 m) may
cause delayed alerts when a vehicle
traveling the same speed as your
vehicle merges lanes.

CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT WARNING: Do not use the cross
traffic alert system as a replacement for
using the interior and exterior mirrors or
looking over your shoulder before
reversing out of a parking space. The
cross traffic alert system is not a
replacement for careful driving. WARNING:
The system may not
operate properly during severe weather
conditions, for example snow, ice, heavy
rain and spray. Always drive with due
care and attention. Failure to take care
may result in a crash. The system is designed to alert you of
vehicles approaching from the sides behind
your vehicle when you shift into reverse
(R).
Using Cross Traffic Alert
The system is designed to detect vehicles
that approach at a speed between
4 mph
(6 km/h) and 37 mph (60 km/h). Coverage
decreases when the sensors are partially,
mostly or fully obstructed. Slowly reversing
helps increase the coverage area and
effectiveness.
The system turns on when you start the
engine and you shift into reverse (R). The
system turns off when you shift out of
reverse (R).

2020 Transit (TTH) Canada/United States of America, LK3J 19A321 HA enUSA, Edition date: 201911, First-Printing Driving Aids

Zone coverage also decreases when
parking at narrow angles. The sensor on
the left-hand side is mostly obstructed and
zone coverage on that side is severely
reduced.
Cross Traffic Alert System Sensors
The sensors are behind the rear bumper
on both sides of your vehicle.
Note:
Keep the sensors free from snow, ice
and large accumulations of dirt.
Note: Do not cover the sensors with bumper
stickers, repair compound or other objects.
Note: Blocked sensors could affect system
performance.
If the sensors are blocked, a message may
appear in the information display when
you shift into reverse (R).
Cross Traffic Alert System
Limitations
The system may not correctly operate
when any of the following occur:
• The sensors are blocked.
• Adjacently parked vehicles or objects
are obstructing the sensors.
• Vehicles approach at speeds less than
4 mph (6 km/h) or greater than 37 mph
(60 km/h).
• The vehicle speed is greater than 7 mph
(12 km/h)
.
• You reverse out of an angled parking
space. Cross Traffic Alert behavior when
trailer is attached
Note:
The system may not correctly operate
when towing a trailer. For vehicles with an
approved trailer tow module and tow bar,
the system turns off when you attach a
trailer. For vehicles with an aftermarket
trailer tow module or tow bar, we
recommend that you switch the system off
when you attach a trailer.
Cross traffic alert remains on when you
attach a trailer in vehicles equipped with
a Blind Sport Information System with
Trailer Tow under the following conditions:
• You connect a trailer.
• The trailer is a bike rack or cargo rack
with a maximum length of
3 ft (1 m).
• You set the trailer length to
3 ft (1 m)
in the information display.
See
Blind Spot Information System
(page 220).
Switching the System On and Off
To switch cross traffic alert on or off, use
the Information display. See
General
Information (page 116).
Note: The system turns on every time you
switch the ignition on. To permanently
switch the system off, contact an authorized
dealer.
Cross Traffic Alert Indicator When the system detects an
approaching vehicle a tone
sounds, a warning lamp
illuminates in the relevant exterior mirror
and arrows appear in the information
display to show which side the
approaching vehicle is coming from.
Note: If arrows do not display, a message
appears in the information display.

If the system malfunctions, a warning lamp
illuminates in the instrument cluster and
a message appears in the information
display. Have your vehicle checked as soon
as possible.
Note:
In exceptional conditions, the system
could alert you, even when there is nothing

How Does Eco Mode Work
The system is designed to monitor certain
driving characteristics to help you drive
more efficiently. See Economical Driving
(page 254).
Note: The efficiency levels do not result in
a defined fuel consumption figure.
Note: The system only indicates the
efficiency level for the current trip. The
system resets each time you switch the
ignition on. Instantaneous Efficiency Level
The display ring increases as the
instantaneous efficiency level increases
and illuminates when it reaches maximum
efficiency. The level continuously updates
to indicate the efficiency level for the
current trip.
Viewing the Instantaneous Efficiency
Level
1. Using the information display controls
on the steering wheel, select
MyView.
2. Select
Eco Coach.
Trip Summary
The calculated trip summary is shown as
four colored bars. The bars travel from left
to right as the calculated efficiency levels
increase. The bars indicate the average
efficiency level for acceleration,
deceleration, speed and gear shifting
during the total distance traveled by your
vehicle for the current trip.
