2010 LINCOLN MKZ mirror

BLIS™-CTA on/off and disable operation
The BLIS™ and/or the CTA can be turned off via the message center.
Turning the BLIS™ off does not turn off the CTA and visa versa. If either
the BLIS™ or CTA is turned off, the systems will automatically turn back
on at the next ignition key cycle. When either the BLIS™ or CTA is
turned off, the message center displays BLIND SPOT SYS OFF and/or
CTA SYSTEM OFF. When the BLIS™ or CTA system is off, the driver
will not receive alerts. Refer toMessage Centerin theInstrument
Clusterchapter.
The BLIS™-CTA can be disabled permanently even after an ignition key
cycle. This must be done by your dealership service technician.
Once either of the systems are disabled, enabling must also be performed
at the dealership. When disabled, the message center will display BLIND
SPOT DISABLED and/or CTA DISABLED.
BLIS™-CTA fault operation
If the BLIS™-CTA senses a fault on either the left or right sensor, the
BLIS™ alert indicator will go ON and remain ON and the message center
will display BLIND SPOT SYSTEM FAULT or CROSS TRAFFIC SYSTEM
FAULT. For faults that may cause the associated left or right alert
indicator not to illuminate, only the message center faults will occur.
Blocked sensor
An extreme build up of materials on
the left and/or right quarter panel
fascias such as mud or snow can
cause degraded performance of the
BLIS™. Also, heavy rain can cause
the same effect. The BLIS™ can
detect this degraded performance
and issue a blocked warning to the
driver via the message center. If condition is determined by the system,
the message center displays BLIND SPOT NOT AVAILABLE or CROSS
TRAFFIC NOT AVAILABLE warning and the appropriate left and/or right
exterior mirror alert indicator will illuminate. The message center
warning may be cleared by the driver but the exterior mirror alert
indicator will remain illuminated.
WARNING:Just prior to the system recognizing a blocked
condition and alerting the driver, the number of missed objects
will increase. To help avoid injuries, NEVER use the BLIS™ as a
replacement for using the side and rear view mirrors and looking over
your shoulder before changing lanes. BLIS™ is not a replacement for
careful driving and only an assist.

WAXING
•Wash the vehicle first.
•Do not use waxes that contain abrasives; use Motorcraft Premium
Liquid Wax (ZC-53-A), which is available from your authorized dealer,
or an equivalent quality product.
•Do not allow paint sealant to come in contact with any non-body
(low-gloss black) colored trim, such as grained door handles, roof
racks, bumpers, side moldings, mirror housings or the windshield cowl
area. The paint sealant will “gray” or stain the parts over time.
PAINT CHIPS
Your authorized dealer has touch-up paint to match your vehicle’s color.
Take your color code (printed on a sticker in the driver’s door jamb) to
your authorized dealer to ensure you get the correct color.
•Remove particles such as bird droppings, tree sap, insect deposits, tar
spots, road salt and industrial fallout before repairing paint chips.
•Always read the instructions before using the products.
ALUMINUM WHEELS AND WHEEL COVERS
Aluminum wheels and wheel covers are coated with a clearcoat paint
finish. In order to maintain their shine:
•Clean weekly with Motorcraft Wheel and Tire Cleaner (ZC-37-A),
which is available from your authorized dealer. Heavy dirt and brake
dust accumulation may require agitation with a sponge. Rinse
thoroughly with a strong stream of water.
•Never apply any cleaning chemical to hot or warm wheel rims or
covers.
•Some automatic car washes may cause damage to the finish on your
wheel rims or covers. Chemical-strength cleaners, or cleaning
chemicals, in combination with brush agitation to remove brake dust
and dirt, could wear away the clearcoat finish over time.
•Do not use hydrofluoric acid-based or high caustic-based wheel
cleaners, steel wool, fuels or strong household detergent.
•To remove tar and grease, use Motorcraft Bug and Tar Remover
(ZC-42), available from your authorized dealer.
