AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION
WARNINGS
Always set the parking brake
fully and make sure the vehicle
is in P (Park). Turn the ignition off
whenever you leave your vehicle. Do not apply the brake pedal and
accelerator pedal
simultaneously. Applying both pedals
simultaneously for more than three
seconds will limit engine rpm, which
may result in difficulty maintaining
speed in traffic and could lead to
serious injury. Push Button Shift
Transmission
Your vehicle is equipped with an
electronic transmission. The shift
buttons are located on the center
stack next the MyLincoln Touch
™
system. The gears are selected by
pressing and releasing the
PRNDS
buttons. Every time a gear is selected,
the selected button will light up. You
will also see the gear selected appear
in the instrument cluster. Understanding the Positions of
your Electronic Transmission

Always come to a complete stop
before putting your vehicle into and out
of
P (Park).
Putting your vehicle in gear:
1. Fully press down the brake pedal.
2. Press and release the button on the center stack of the gear you
want to select.
3. The gear shift button you select will illuminate and the instrument
cluster will show the selected gear.
4. Release the brake pedal and your transmission will remain in the
selected gear.
Note: If the driver attempts to leave
the vehicle while it is in gear, the vehicle
will automatically shift into
P (Park).
Seatbelt and door monitors determine
the driver's intent and make the shift
for you. During this time a
Transmission not in Park
will appear
in the display screen prompting the
driver to make the shift. To put the
vehicle in gear with the door open
perform steps 1-4. See the Automatic
Return to Park

will sound when P (Park) is manually
selected.
The vehicle will automatically shift
into P (Park) when the ignition is
turned off. If the ignition is turned off
while the vehicle is moving, it will first
shift into

We recommend using a wheel lift and
dollies or flatbed equipment. Do not
tow with a slingbelt. Ford Motor
Company has not approved a
slingbelt towing procedure. If towed
incorrectly, or by any other means,
vehicle damage may occur.
Ford Motor Company produces a
towing manual for all authorized tow
truck operators. Have your tow truck
operator refer to this manual for
proper hook-up and towing
procedures for your vehicle.
It is acceptable to tow a front-wheel
drive (FWD) vehicle from the front if
using proper wheel lift equipment to
raise the front wheels off the ground.
The rear wheels can remain on the
ground when towed in this fashion.
FWD vehicles can also be towed from
the rear using wheel lift equipment;
however, the front wheels must be
placed on a dolly to prevent damage
to the transmission.
It is required to tow an all-wheel drive
(AWD) vehicle with a wheel lift and
dollies or flatbed equipment, with all
the wheels off the ground, to prevent
damage to the transmission, AWD
system or vehicle.
TOWING THE VEHICLE ON
FOUR WHEELS
Emergency Towing
You can flat-tow (all wheels on the
ground, regardless of the
powertrain/transmission
configuration) your disabled vehicle
(without access to wheel dollies,
car-hauling trailer, or flatbed transport
vehicle) under the following
conditions:
•
Your vehicle is facing forward so
you tow it in a forward direction.
• You place the transmission in
position N. If you cannot place the
transmission in position N, you
may need to override it. See
Transmission
(page 165).
• Maximum speed is 35 mph (56
km/h).
• Maximum distance is 50 miles (80
kilometers).
Recreational Towing
Note: Put your climate control system
in recirculated air mode to prevent
exhaust fumes from entering the
vehicle. See
Climate Control (page
126).
Follow these guidelines if you have a
need for recreational (RV) towing. An
example of recreational towing would
be towing your vehicle behind a
motorhome. These guidelines are to
make sure you do not damage the
transmission during towing.

If you cannot remove those streaks
after cleaning with the glass cleaner
or if the wipers chatter and move in a
jerky motion, clean the outer surface
of the windshield and the wiper
blades using a sponge or soft cloth
with a neutral detergent or
mild-abrasive cleaning solution. After
cleaning, rinse the windshield and
wiper blades with clean water. The
windshield is clean if beads do not
form when you rinse the windshield
with water.
Note:
Do not use sharp objects, such
as a razor blade, to clean the inside of
the rear window or to remove decals,
as it may cause damage to the rear
window defroster ’s heated grid lines.
CLEANING THE INTERIOR WARNINGS
Do not use cleaning solvents,
bleach or dye on the vehicle
’s
safety belts, as these actions may
weaken the belt webbing. On vehicles equipped with
seat-mounted airbags, do not
use chemical solvents or strong
detergents. Such products could
contaminate the side airbag system
and affect performance of the side
airbag in a collision. For fabric, carpets, cloth seats, safety
belts and seats equipped with side
airbags:
•
Remove dust and loose dirt with a
vacuum cleaner.
• Remove light stains and soil with
Motorcraft® Professional Strength
Carpet & Upholstery Cleaner.
• If grease or tar is present on the
material, spot-clean the area first
with Motorcraft® Spot and Stain
Remover. In Canada, use
Motorcraftt Multi-Purpose Cleaner.
• If a ring forms on the fabric after
spot cleaning, clean the entire area
immediately (but do not
oversaturate) or the ring will set.
• Do not use household cleaning
products or glass cleaners, which
can stain and discolor the fabric
and affect the flame retardant
abilities of the seat materials.
CLEANING THE
INSTRUMENT PANEL AND
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
LENS WARNING
Do not use chemical solvents or
strong detergents when cleaning
the steering wheel or instrument panel
to avoid contamination of the airbag
system. 287
