Fuel Tank Capacity/Fuel Info: Your vehicle 
has a 18.6 gallon (70.4L) fuel tank. Use only 
UNLEADED fuel or UNLEADED fuel blended 
with a maximum of 15% ethanol. Do not  
use fuel ethanol (E85), diesel, fuel-methanol, 
leaded fuel or any other fuel because it  
could damage or impair the emission  
control system. 
Towing your MKT: Towing your vehicle 
behind an RV or any other vehicle may be 
limited. Refer to the Towing the Vehicle on 
Four Wheels section in the Towing chapter 
of your Owner's Manual for more information.
Fuel-efficient Transmission: Your vehicle 
has been designed to improve fuel economy 
by reducing fuel usage while coasting or 
decelerating. This may be perceived as a 
light to medium braking sensation when 
removing your foot from the accelerator pedal.
Lincoln Drive Control*: This suite of 
electronic vehicle systems lets you choose 
three different driving experiences through 
the information display: Comfort, Normal 
and Sport. See the Driving Aids chapter of 
your Owner's Manual for complete details.  Collision Warning System*: This system 
is designed to 
alert the driver of 
certain collision 
risks. Radar 
sensors detect if 
vehicles ahead 
of you which are 
moving in the 
same direction, may be a collision risk. The 
system will alert you with an audible tone 
and red warning light which will appear 
above the dash. If the risk of collision 
increases, the system will increase brake 
support to help reduce collision speed.
Location of Spare Tire and Tools: Your 
spare tire and tools are located beneath the 
third row seats under the floor panel (you 
will need to unstow the seats to access). 
The spare tire is designed for emergency 
use only and should be replaced as soon 
as possible. For complete details on 
changing your tire, refer to the Changing 
a Road Wheel section in the Wheels and 
Tires chapter of your Owner’s Manual. Rear Window Buffeting: When one or both 
of your rear windows are open, you may 
hear a wind throb or buffeting noise. To 
alleviate this, simply lower a front window 
approximately 2-3 inches (5-8 centimeters).
Tire Pressure Monitoring System: Your 
vehicle has a tire pressure monitoring system 
that illuminates a low tire pressure warning 
light 
 in your instrument cluster when 
one or more of your tires is significantly 
underinflated. If this happens, stop and  
check your tires as soon as possible. 
Inflate them to the proper pressure. 
Refer to the Inflating Your Tires section 
in the Wheels and Tires chapter of your 
Owner’s Manual for more information.
Roadside Assistance: Your new Lincoln 
MKT comes with the assurance and support 
of 24-hour emergency roadside assistance. 
To receive roadside assistance in the United 
States, call 1-800-521-4140. In Canada,  
call 1-800-665-2006.
Essential Information
THX II® Certified Audio System*: Fourteen strategically positioned,  high-performance speakers 
deliver a home theater sound 
right in your vehicle. The 
system will automatically make 
adjustments to volume and 
sound distribution, based on 
vehicle speed and external 
road noise. 
Tilting Head Restraints*: Your vehicle’s front-row head restraints  
can be adjusted. Pull up to raise the head restraint. To lower, press 
the head restraint down while pressing and holding the guide sleeve 
adjust/release button. Tilt the head restraint forward for additional 
comfort by gently pulling the top of the head restraint. Once it is in  
its forward-most position, tilting it forward once more will release it \
 
to the upright position.
Note: Do not attempt to force the head restraint backward after
tilting it forward. Instead, continue tilting it forward until the head
restraint releases to the upright position.
Adaptive Headlamps*: The headlamp beams move in the same 
direction as the steering wheel, providing more visibility when 
driving around curves. To use: turn the lighting control switch to  
the autolamp position. The system is only active at speeds above 
3 mph	(5	km/h).	See	the	Lighting chapter in your Owner's Manual 
for more details.

appropriate lane. 
Turn the feature on and off by

care and attention. SecuriCode™ Keyless Entry System:
Allows you to lock or unlock the 
doors, recall memory features 
and arm or disarm the anti-theft 
alarm. To get started, you will

approaching from the sides when the transmission is in R (Reverse). 
BLIS and CTA will display a yellow indicator light in your exterior 
mirrors and the CTA will also sound tones and display messages to 
warn you from which direction vehicles are approaching. Refer to the 
Driving Aids  chapter in your Owner’s Manual  for more information.
Note: Visibility aids do not replace the need to watch where 
the vehicle is moving. Refer to your Owner’s Manual for safety 
information, more details and system limitations.
Universal Garage Door Opener: Your driver’s visor has a  
built-in wireless transmitter that replaces the common hand-held
