2010 FORD EXPLORER SPORT TRAC ECO mode

WARNING:Do not leave children unattended in the vehicle and
do not let children play with the power sliding back window.
They may seriously injure themselves.
Normal operation
When the power down back window is opened, it will stop in the vent
position. When the window is closed from full open, it will not stop in
the vent position. When the power down back window is in motion, the
control switch can be pressed to change the window direction and move
it to the closest position.
If the power down back window is moving up and the ignition is
switched to off (without accessory delay power enabled) the window will
reverse direction and move down to either the full open or vent position.
If the window is within 0.16 in. (4 mm) of the upper header, it will
completely close.
Bounce-back
When the back window is moving toward the fully closed position and an
obstacle interferes with the window’s movement, the back window will
reverse direction and move toward the fully open position. This is known
as “bounce-back”.
Security override
If, during a bounce-back condition and within two seconds after the
window stops, the control is held in the closed direction,the back
window will travel closed with no bounce-back protection.If the
control is released before the window reaches fully closed, the back
window will continue moving with bounce-back re-enabled.
The following are possible reasons for using the security override:
•Ice on the window causing a restriction.
•Window unexpectedly reverses.
Position recovery mode
If the motor loses position and stops mid travel, the motor will respond
to switch inputs by moving 0.6 in. (15 mm) each switch command in the
up direction only. Down will be a one touch down operation. If the
window is stalled in the down position and there are no other system
faults, the motor shall relearn its position and resume full functionality. If
there is a feedback signal loss, the window will remain in its 0.6 in.
(15 mm) travel mode with each switch command and will not recover
full functionality. This will allow you to “inch” the window up to the fully
closed position. If the window does not operate correctly, see your dealer
for service.

Power is supplied to all four wheels through a transfer case or power
transfer unit. 4WD vehicles allow you to select different drive modes as
necessary. Information on transfer case operation and shifting procedures
can be found in theDrivingchapter. Information on transfer case
maintenance can be found in theMaintenance and Specifications
chapter. You should become thoroughly familiar with this information
before you operate your vehicle.
On some 4WD models, the initial shift from two-wheel drive to 4WD
while the vehicle is moving can cause a momentary clunk and ratcheting
sound. These sounds are normal as the front drivetrain comes up to
speed and is not cause for concern.
WARNING:Do not become overconfident in the ability of 4WD
and AWD vehicles. Although a 4WD or AWD vehicle may
accelerate better than two-wheel drive vehicle in low traction
situations, it won’t stop any faster than two-wheel drive vehicles.
Always drive at a safe speed.
How your vehicle differs from other vehicles
SUV and trucks can differ from
some other vehicles in a few
noticeable ways. Your vehicle may
be:
•Higher – to allow higher load
carrying capacity and to allow it
to travel over rough terrain
without getting hung up or
damaging underbody components.
•Shorter – to give it the capability
to approach inclines and drive
over the crest of a hill without
getting hung up or damaging
underbody components. All other
things held equal, a shorter
wheelbase may make your vehicle
quicker to respond to steering inputs than a vehicle with a longer
wheelbase.
