Cleaning the liquid crystal display (LCD) flip-down screen
Clean the display screen by applying a small amount of water or any
ammonia-based household glass cleaner directly to a soft cloth. Rub the
screen gently until the dust, dirt or fingerprints are removed. Do not
spray the screen directly with water or glass cleaning solvents. Overspray
from these fluids could drip down into the internal electronics of the
screen and cause damage. Do not apply excessive pressure while
cleaning the screen.
Foreign substances
Exercise care to prevent dirt and foreign objects from entering the DVD
player compartment. If liquid is accidentally spilled onto the system,
immediately turn the system OFF and consult a qualified service
technician.
Cleaning CDs and DVDs
Inspect all discs for contamination before playing. If necessary, clean
discs only with an approved CD cleaner and wipe from the center out to
the edge. Do not use circular motion.
Cleaning the DVD player exterior
Clean the exterior of the DVD player with a damp cloth. Do not use CD
cleaning kits or CDs intended to clean the interior of your DVD player.
Use of these products may damage your system.
VEHICLE NAVIGATION RADIO (VNR IF EQUIPPED)
Your vehicle may be equipped with a Vehicle Navigation Radio (VNR)
which allows you to listen to the radio, play CDs and also navigate the
vehicle using navigation CDs.
Your Vehicle Navigation Radio is equipped with many different features
and controls. The labeled controls on the front face of the system (which
are called out below) are known as hard keys. The five blank controls
located under the MENU control are called soft keys. These controls are
labeled on the screen and can change functionality depending on which
screen is activated in the display. The hard keys will be explained further
below and the soft keys will be described as needed.
Safety information
Please read and follow all stated safety precautions. Failure to do
so may increase your risk of collision and personal injury.

Ford Motor Company shall not be liable for any damages of any
type arising from failure to follow these guidelines.
Do not attempt to service, repair or modify the system. See your Ford or
Lincoln Mercury dealer.
The driver must not attempt to operate any detailed operation of
the navigation system while the vehicle is in motion. Give full
attention to driving and to the road. Pull off the road and park in a
safe place before performing detailed operations.
A safety screen will be displayed
each time the navigation system is
turned on as a reminder. Ensure
that you are familiar with the
system’s features and functionality,
including the following:
•Do not turn the ignition key or start the engine while the software is
updating.
•Do not apply pressure to the display screen.
•The navigation system is not a substitute for your personal judgement.
•Route suggestions should not supersede local traffic regulations or
safe driving practices.
•Do not follow route suggestions if they direct you to perform an
unsafe or illegal maneuver, would place you in an unsafe situation, or
would route you into an area that you consider unsafe.
•Drivers should not rely on screen displays while their vehicle is in
motion. Let the voice guide you. If viewing is necessary, pull off the
road to a safe location.
•Do not use the navigation system to locate emergency services.
•For road safety reasons, the driver should program the system only
when the vehicle is stationary. Certain functions will therefore not
operate while the vehicle is in motion.
•The navigation CD does not reflect road detours, closures or
construction, road characteristics such as rough road surface, slope or
grade, weight or height restrictions, traffic congestion, weather or
similar conditions.

•To use the system as effectively and safely as possible, obtain
up-to-date navigation CD’s whenever they become available.
•Set the volume level so that you can hear directions clearly.
•Do not disassemble or modify the system as this may lead to damage
and void your warranty. If a problem occurs, stop using the system
immediately and contact your Ford or Lincoln Mercury dealer.
