LINCOLN NAVIGATOR 2022 Owners Manual

Release the knob when the trailer is moving
in the direction you want.
Note:
The more you turn the knob, the
sharper the trailer turns.
Note: Quickly turning and releasing the knob
results in a jerky movement of the vehicle.
Note: You may have to use the knob to
correct the trailer direction when attempting
to move the trailer straight back under some
conditions. USING THE TRAILER BACKUP
ASSISTANCE VIEWS
Up to three camera views could be available
when using trailer backup assistance. Use
the view that helps you the most when
reversing your vehicle and trailer. 360° camera view. Shows a 360°
view on the right-hand side of the
touchscreen with a rear camera
view on the left-hand side of the
touchscreen. Rear view camera view. Shows
your trailer hitch or what is directly
behind your vehicle.
Trailer reverse guidance view.
Shows you a view of the sides of
your vehicle and the trailer. In auto
mode, this view moves as the trailer moves
so that you do not have to adjust the camera
as you turn. Left and right arrows let you see
other camera views. Auto. Press to return to auto view.Note:
Auto mode is the default setting.
Hitch Angle Graphic
The hitch angle graphic shows a small
representation of your vehicle and trailer with
visual feedback to help you monitor the
trailer. The graphic shows two different
colored lines for the trailer hitch angle. A
black line shows you where your trailer is in
relation to your vehicle. The white line
represents the amount the trailer can turn
based on knob input.
The graphic shows a yellow and red zone
for the hitch angle to warn you of a high
angle condition that could require you to pull
forward to reduce the hitch angle. The angle
limits for each zone vary based on the trailer
length.
The yellow zone indicates you are
approaching the maximum controllable trailer
angle for the system. When the trailer enters
this zone, it is more difficult to reduce the
trailer turn when backing up. It may be
necessary to put your vehicle back into drive
(D) and pull forward to get your vehicle and
trailer back to an in-line position.

TRAILER BACKUP ASSISTANCE –
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why does the trailer not reverse straight?
Verify the sticker is correctly applied.
Other factors such as the hitch
connection, road camber, road slope
and trailer suspension could influence
how straight the system can reverse the
trailer when the control knob is not
turned. You can compensate for the
trailer drifting to the right or left by
slowly turning the knob until the trailer
is following your desired path and then
holding the knob in that position. What does it mean if the system remains
on one message for an extended time
during calibration?
The camera could need to be cleaned,
the sticker could be blocked, the
drawbar could be outside the allowed
range of 9–18 in (23–46 cm) or you
could need to move to a different area
to change the lighting and background.
Verify the sticker is in the proper
location.
See Applying the Trailer
Reversing Aid Sticker (page 364). You
can move to a different area or change
the direction you are driving or setup
the system at a different time of day.
Some trailers are not compatible with
the sticker and camera system.
What does it mean if the system pauses
during calibration? There could be steering input or trailer
movement during the straight drive
portion of the calibration process. What does it mean if the system displays
hold steering steady during turn?
Part of the calibration process for the
sticker setup requires a steady turn. If
you are continually moving the steering
wheel during the turn, this delays the
calibration process. To enable the
calibration process, hold the steering
wheel at the same position when
turning.
What does it mean if the system displays
that it is not available? There could be a sub-system that the
system uses that is not correctly
operating or there could be a battery
voltage issue. If the system continues
to display it is not available, visit your
authorized dealer to have your vehicle
checked.

2022 Navigator (TB9) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202109, First-Printing Trailer Backup Assistance
(If Equipped)

What does it mean if the system displays
that driving is required to initialize steering?
The steering system needs to learn
internal parameters to fully turn on the
feature. Drive your vehicle straight
forward above 25 mph (40 km/h) for
approximately 5 minutes. This could also
occur when your vehicle is new, there
is a battery voltage issue or if the
steering system has been serviced.
373
2022 Navigator (TB9) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202109, First-Printing Trailer Backup Assistance
(If Equipped)

What does it mean if the trailer is at its
maximum angle or the system deactivated
by trailer angle?
You are at the maximum controllable
trailer angle for the system. Place your
vehicle in drive (D) and pull forward to
get the truck and trailer back to an
in-line position. If this message
consistently displays, this could indicate
the sticker is incorrectly applied, the
trailer needs to be recalibrated or the
drawbar or the trailer dimensions are
outside of the supported range. The
system is designed to work with
drawbars that have a license plate to
hitch ball center measurement of 9–18 in
(23–46 cm) when installed. The system
is designed to work with trailers that
have a hitch point to center of the axle
or axles measurement of
6–33 ft
(1.85–10.05 m). Do not attempt to use
drawbars or trailers that have a length
outside of this range as the system
performance degrades and could cause
improper system function. Check that
the correct trailer is selected in the touchscreen. Verify the sticker is
correctly applied and check that the
drawbar and the trailer dimensions are
within the allowed range. Then, delete
the trailer from the system and repeat
the setup process to calibrate the trailer.
What does it mean when the system tells
you to take control of the steering wheel? The system is no longer steering the
vehicle and you must take over steering.
There are four reasons the system could
display this message. The first reason
the system could display this message
is that you have touched the steering
wheel when the system is steering. The
second reason the system could display
this message is that you have exceeded
the maximum speed for the feature. The
third reason the system could display
this message is that the trailer is not
detected. The final reason the system
could display this message is that an
internal condition for system operation
is not met that requires your vehicle to
return to manual control of the steering. What does it mean if the system does not
detect a trailer?
The system requires a clear view of the
sticker placed on the trailer. You must
keep the camera lens and sticker clean
for the system to correctly operate. If
the system cannot initially detect the
trailer, it could be necessary for you to
change the lighting conditions by
moving your vehicle and trailer or
waiting until the conditions change. See
Applying the Trailer Reversing Aid
Sticker (page 364). Some trailers are not
compatible with the sticker and camera
system.
Note: The system is designed to be used
with the same trailer connection every time
you choose the trailer from the touchscreen.
When using a different drawbar or a different
pin hole on drawbars with more than one,
connecting the drawbar to your vehicle
affects the trailer position and you may need
to repeat the trailer setup and calibration
process.
