WELCOME LIGHTING
The Lincoln welcome mat projection lights
are on the bottom of the exterior mirror

the ground a short distance from your vehicle
when welcome lighting or lighted entry turns
on.
For auto-fold mirrors, the Lincoln welcome
mat will turn on when welcome lighting or
lighted entry turns on and the mirrors have
been automatically folded in upon locking
or using the switch on the door. Note:
Moisture, frost and ice build-up or
other types of contamination on the surface
of the light lens can cause non-permanent
distortion or reduced brightness of the
image. Do not use abrasive materials to
clean the lens.
Note: If you enable auto-fold and then you
fold the mirrors in manually to the door
window glass, then the welcome mats will
not turn on.
INTERIOR LAMPS
The lamps will switch on when you have met
one of the following conditions:
• You open any door.
• You press a remote control button.
• You press the outer edge of the clear

The image of the approaching vehicle is
small and near the inboard edge of the main
mirror when it is at a distance. The image
becomes larger and begins to move
outboard across the main mirror as the
vehicle approaches (A). The image transitions
from the main mirror and begins to appear
in the blind spot mirror as the vehicle
approaches (B). The vehicle transitions to
your peripheral field of view as it leaves the
blind spot mirror (C).
Blind Spot Information System (If Equipped)
See Blind Spot Information System (page
224).
INTERIOR MIRROR WARNING
Do not adjust the mirror when your
vehicle is moving.
Note:
Do not clean the housing or glass of
any mirror with harsh abrasives, fuel or other
petroleum or ammonia-based cleaning
products. You can adjust the interior mirror to your
preference. Some mirrors also have a second
pivot point. This lets you move the mirror
head up or down and from side to side.
Auto-Dimming Mirror
Note:
Do not block the sensors on the front
and back of the mirror. Mirror performance
may be affected. A rear center passenger
or raised rear center head restraint may also
block light from reaching the sensor.
The mirror will dim automatically to reduce
glare when bright lights are detected from
behind your vehicle. It will automatically
return to normal reflection when you select
reverse gear to make sure you have a clear
view when backing up. Second Row Illuminated Vanity Mirror
(If Equipped) Pull the cover down to turn on the lamp.

to fill and operate the system or using a
Ford-approved flushing chemical.
