key LINCOLN MKZ HYBRID 2013 Workshop Manual

The current assessment of your
alertness is within a typical range.
The current assessment of your
alertness indicates that you should
rest as soon as safely possible.
The status bar will travel from left to
right as the calculated alertness level
decreases. As the rest icon is
approached the color turns from
green to yellow to red.
•
Green - No rest required.
• Yellow - First warning is active.
• Red - Second warning is active.
Note: If you have recently received a
warning; you should consider resting,
even if the current assessment is with
the typical range.
Note: The alertness level will be
shown in grey for a short time if the
camera sensor cannot track the road
lane markings or if the vehicle speed
drops below approximately 40 mph
(64 km/h), after which the system
display will inform the driver that the
system is unavailable. Resetting the System
You can reset the system by either:
•
Switching the ignition off and on.
• Stopping the vehicle and then
opening and closing the driver ’s
door.
LANE KEEPING SYSTEM WARNING
The system is designed to aid the
driver. It is not intended to
replace the driver ’s attention and
judgment. The driver is still
responsible to drive with due care and
attention. Note:
The system needs to be
activated by the driver at each key
cycle.
Note: The system works above 40
mph (64 km/h).
Note: The system works as long as one
lane marking can be detected by the
camera.
Note: If the camera is blocked or if the
windshield is damaged, the system
may not function.
Note: When Aid mode is on and the
system detects no driver steering
activity for a short continuous period
of time, the system alerts the driver to
put their hands on the steering wheel.
The system may detect a light
grip/touch on the steering wheel as
hands off driving.
220
MKZ (CC9) Driving AidsE131358 E131359

The system is designed to notify you
to stay in your lane through alerts
from the steering system and
instrument cluster when the front
camera detects an unintentional drift
out of your lane. The system
automatically detects and tracks the
road lane markings using a camera
that is mounted behind the interior
rear view mirror.
Switching the System On and
Off
Note:
The system defaults to off each
time the vehicle is started, unless a
MyKey® is detected. If a MyKey® is
detected, the system is defaulted to
on and the Alert mode is automatically
selected.
Note: If a MyKey® is detected,
pressing the button will not affect the
on/off status of the system. Only the
Mode and Intensity settings can be
changed when a MyKey® is present. To turn the system on, press
the button located on the left
steering wheel stalk. The
button must be pressed each time the
vehicle is started. The system can be
turned off by pressing the button
again. System Settings
The system has two optional setting
menus available. To view or adjust
them, select Settings > Driver Assist
> Lane Keeping Sys in the information
display using the OK button on the
steering wheel. The last-known
selection for each of these settings is
stored by the system. You do not need
to readjust your settings each time
you turn on the system.
Mode: This setting allows the driver
to select which of the system features
will be enabled and turned on when
the button is pressed. Alert only – Provides a steering wheel
vibration when an unintended lane
departure is detected.

Note:
It is possible to get a blockage
warning with no blockage present; this
is rare and known as a false blockage
warning. A false blocked condition
either self-corrects or clears after a key
cycle. The system uses radar sensors which
are located behind the bumper fascia
on each side of your vehicle. Do not
allow these areas to become
obstructed by mud, snow or bumper
stickers, as this can cause degraded
system performance.
If the system detects a degraded
performance condition, a message
warning of a blocked sensor or a
message warning of low visibility will
appear in the information display and
the alert indicator illuminates in the
appropriate mirror(s). The information
display warning can be cleared but
the alert indicator remains
illuminated.
When the blockage is removed, the
system can be reset in two ways:
•
when at least two objects are
detected while driving, or
• turn the ignition from on to off,
then back on. If the blockage is still present after the
key cycle, the system senses again
that it is blocked after driving in traffic. Reasons for messages being
displayed
Clean the fascia area in front of the radar or
remove the obstruction.
The radar
surface is dirty or
obstructed
Drive normally in trafficfor a few minutes to
allow the radar to detect
passing vehicles so it can clear the blocked state.
The radar
surface is not dirty or
obstructed
No action required. Thesystem automatically
resets to an unblocked
state once the rainfall or snowfall rate decreases
or stops. Do not use BLIS or cross traffic alert in these conditions.
Heavy
rainfall/
snowfall
interferes with the radar
signals
System Limitations
The BLIS and cross traffic alert
systems do have their limitations;
situations such as severe weather
conditions or debris build-up on the
sensor area may limit vehicle
detection.
228
MKZ (CC9) Driving AidsE142443

The following are other situations that
may limit the BLIS:
•
Certain maneuvering of vehicles
entering and exiting the blind zone.
• Vehicles passing through the blind
zone at very fast rates.
• When several vehicles forming a
convoy pass through the blind
zone.
The following are other situations that
may limit the cross traffic alert
system:
• Adjacently parked vehicles or
objects obstructing the sensors.
• Approaching vehicles passing at
speeds greater than 15 mph (24
km/h).
• Driving in reverse faster than 5
mph (8 km/h).
• Backing out of an angled parking
spot.
False Alerts
Note: If a trailer is connected to the
vehicle the BLIS system may detect the
trailer causing a false alert. You may
want to turn the BLIS off manually.
There may be certain instances when
either the BLIS or cross traffic alert
systems illuminate the alert indicator
with no vehicle in the coverage zone;
this is known as a false alert. Some
amount of false alerts are normal;
they are temporary and self-correct. System Errors
If either system senses a problem with
the left or right sensor, the BLIS
telltale will illuminate and a message
will appear in the information display.
All other system faults will only be
displayed by a message in the
information display.
Switching the Systems Off and On
One or both systems can be switched
off temporarily by using the
information display control. See
General Information (page 103).
When the BLIS is switched off, you will
not receive alerts and a telltale
illuminates in the information display.
Note: The CTA system always
switches on whenever the ignition is
switched on. However, the BLIS system
will remember the last selected on or
off setting.
One or both systems cannot be
switched off when MyKey is used. See
General Information
(page 343).
One or both systems can also be
switched off permanently at your
authorized dealer. Once switched off,
switching it back on must also be
done at your authorized dealer.

MKZ (CC9) Driving Aids

The warning system sensitivity can be
adjusted to one of three possible
settings by using the information
display control. See General
Information (page 103).
Note: If the system cannot be turned
off in a vehicle equipped with MyKey®,
See
Principle of Operation (page 57).
Note: If collision warnings are
perceived as being too frequent or
disturbing then the warning sensitivity
can be reduced, though the
manufacturer recommends using the
highest sensitivity setting where
possible. Setting lower sensitivity
would lead to fewer and later system
warnings. See
General Information
(page 103). Blocked Sensors If a message regarding a blocked
sensor appears in the information
display, the radar signals from the
sensor have been obstructed. The
sensors are located behind a fascia
cover near the driver side of the lower
grille. When the sensors are
obstructed, a vehicle ahead cannot
be detected and the collision warning
system does not function. The
following table lists possible causes
and actions for this message being
displayed.

•
Comfort – Provides a more relaxed
driving experience, maximizing
comfort. Steering effort is
decreased and suspension
movement is more fluid. Comfort
mode is ideal when enhanced
traveling comfort is desired.
• Normal – Delivers a balanced
combination of comfortable,
controlled ride and confident
handling. This mode provides an
engaging drive experience and a
direct connection to the road
without sacrificing any of the
composure demanded from a
luxury vehicle.
• Sport – Provides a sportier driving
experience. Suspension stiffens,
with an emphasis on handling and
control. The engine responds more
directly to your inputs and takes
on a more powerful tone. Sport
mode is intended to be used during
more spirited driving.
Using Lincoln Drive Control
You can configure which of the Drive
Control modes are active when the

Note: Lincoln Drive Control has
diagnostic checks that continuously
monitor the system to ensure proper
operation. Certain types of system
errors will gray out the mode selections
within the information display,
preventing you from changing states
when the gear position is changed.
Other types of errors will produce a
temporary message that states Drive
Control Malfunction. If either condition
persists for multiple key cycles, take
your vehicle to an authorized dealer to
have it checked.
