PARKING AID (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNINGS
To help avoid personal injury,
please read and understand the
limitations of the system as contained
in this section. Sensing is only an aid
for some (generally large and fixed)
objects when moving in reverse on a
flat surface at parking speeds. Traffic
control systems, inclement weather,
air brakes, and external motors and
fans may also affect the function of
the sensing system; this may include
reduced performance or a false
activation. To help avoid personal injury,
always use caution when in R
(Reverse) and when using the sensing
system. This system is not designed to
prevent contact with small or
moving objects. The system is
designed to provide a warning to
assist the driver in detecting large
stationary objects to avoid damaging
the vehicle. The system may not
detect smaller objects, particularly
those close to the ground. Certain add-on devices such as
large trailer hitches, bike or
surfboard racks and any device that
may block the normal detection zone
of the system, may create false beeps. Note:
Keep the sensors, located on the
bumper or fascia, free from snow, ice
and large accumulations of dirt. If the
sensors are covered, the system ’s
accuracy can be affected. Do not clean
the sensors with sharp objects.
Note: If your vehicle sustains damage
to the bumper or fascia, leaving it
misaligned or bent, the sensing zone
may be altered causing inaccurate
measurement of obstacles or false
alarms.
Note: If your vehicle is equipped with
MyKey®, it is possible to prevent
turning the sensing system off. See
MyKey®
(page 58).
The sensing system warns the driver
of obstacles within a certain range of
the bumper area. The system turns on
automatically whenever the ignition
is switched on.
When receiving a detection warning,
the radio volume is reduced to a
predetermined level. After the warning
goes away, the radio volume returns
to the previous level.
The system can be switched off
through the information display menu
or from the pop-up message that
appears once the transmission is
shifted into
R. See General
Information (page 100).
If a fault is present in the system, a
warning message appears in the
information display and does not
allow the driver to switch the faulted
system on. See
Information
Messages (page 105).

Resuming the Set Speed
Note:
Resume should only be used if
you are aware of the set speed and
intend to return to it.
Press and release RES. The vehicle
will return to the previously set speed.
The set speed will display
continuously in the information
display while the system is active.
Low Speed Automatic
Cancellation
The system is not functional at vehicle
speeds below 12 mph (20 km/h). An
audible alarm will sound and the
automatic braking will be released if
the vehicle drops below this speed.
Hilly Condition Usage
Note: An audible alarm will sound and
the system will shut down if it is
applying brakes for an extended period
of time. This allows the brakes to cool
down. The system will function
normally again when the brakes have
cooled down.
You should select a lower gear
position when the system is active in
situations such as prolonged downhill
driving on steep grades (i.e., driving in
mountainous areas). Additional
engine braking is needed in these
situations to reduce the load on the
vehicle ’s regular brake system to
prevent them from overheating.
Switching the System Off
Note: The set speed memory is erased
when you switch off the system. Press and release
OFF or turn off the
ignition.
Detection Issues
The radar sensor has a limited field of
vision. It may not detect vehicles at all
or detect a vehicle later than expected
in some situations. The lead vehicle
graphic will not illuminate if a vehicle
is not detected in front of you. 200

•
When adding accessories,
equipment, passengers and
luggage to your vehicle, do not
exceed the total weight capacity
of the vehicle or of the front or rear
axle (GVWR or GAWR as indicated
on the Safety Compliance
Certification label). Consult your
authorized dealer for specific
weight information.
• The Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) and Canadian
Radio Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC) regulate the
use of mobile communications
systems — such as two-way
radios, telephones and theft
alarms - that are equipped with
radio transmitters. Any such
equipment installed in your vehicle
should comply with FCC or CRTC
regulations and should be installed
only by a qualified service
technician.
• Mobile communications systems
may harm the operation of your
vehicle, particularly if they are not
properly designed for automotive
use. •
To avoid interference with other
vehicle functions, such as anti-lock
braking systems, amateur radio
users who install radios and
antennas onto their vehicle should
not locate the amateur radio
antennas in the area of the driver's
side hood.
• Any non-Lincoln custom electrical
or electronic accessories or
components that are added to the
vehicle by the authorized dealer or
the owner, may adversely affect
battery performance and
durability, and may also adversely
affect the performance of other
electrical systems in the vehicle.
