2013 LINCOLN MKZ HYBRID Display Mode

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
MyKey allows you to program keys
with restricted driving modes to
promote good driving habits. All but
one of the keys programmed to the
vehicle can be activated with these
restricted modes.
Any keys that have not been
programmed are referred to as
administrator keys or admin keys.
These can be used to:
•
create a MyKey
• program configurable MyKey
settings
• clear all MyKey features.
When you have programmed a MyKey,
you can access the following
information using the information
display:
• How many admin keys and MyKeys
are programmed to your vehicle.
• The total distance your vehicle has
traveled using a MyKey.
Note: All MyKeys are programmed to
the same settings. You cannot program
them individually.
Note: For vehicles with intelligent
access with push-button start, when
both a MyKey and an admin intelligent
access key fob are present, the admin
fob will be recognized by the vehicle
while switching the ignition on to start
the vehicle.
Non-configurable Settings
The following settings cannot be
changed by an admin key user: •
Belt-Minder. You cannot disable
this feature. The audio system will
mute when the front seat
occupants’ safety belts are not
fastened.
• Early low fuel. The low-fuel
warning activates earlier, giving the
MyKey user more time to refuel.
• Driver assist features, if equipped
on your vehicle, are forced on:
parking aid, blind spot information
system (BLIS) with cross traffic
alert, lane departure warning and
forward collision warning system.
Configurable Settings
With an admin key, you can configure
certain MyKey settings when you first
create a MyKey and before you recycle
the key or restart the vehicle. You can
also change the settings afterward
with an admin key.
• A vehicle speed limit can be set.
Warnings will be shown in the
display followed by an audible
tone when your vehicle reaches the
set speed. You cannot override the
set speed by fully depressing the
accelerator pedal or by setting
cruise control.
• Vehicle speed minders of 45, 55 or
65 mph (75, 90 or 105 km/h).
Once you select a speed, it will be
shown in the display, followed by
an audible tone when the
preselected vehicle speed is
exceeded.

AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM
CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED)
The system will automatically turn on
your high beams if it is dark enough
and no other traffic is present. When
it detects the headlights of an
approaching vehicle, the tail lamps of
the preceding vehicle or street lighting,
the system will turn off the high
beams before they distract other
drivers. The low beams remain on.
Note: If it appears that automatic
control of the high beams is not
functioning properly, check the
windshield in front of the camera for a
blockage. A clear view of the road is
required for proper system operation.
Have any windshield damage in the
area of the camera ’s field-of-view
repaired.
Note: If the system detects a blockage
such as bird droppings, bug splatter,
snow or ice, and you do not observe
changes, the system will go into low
beam mode until you clear the
blockage. A message may also appear
in the instrument cluster display noting
the front camera is blocked. Note:
Typical road dust, dirt and water
spots will not affect the performance
of the automatic high beam system .
However, in cold or inclement weather
conditions, you will notice a decrease
in the availability of the high beam
system, especially at start up. If you
want to change the beam state
independently of the system, you may
switch the high beams on or off using
the multifunction switch. Automatic
control will resume when conditions
are correct.
Note: Modification of the vehicle ride
height such as using much larger tires,
may degrade feature performance.
A camera sensor, centrally mounted
behind the windshield of your vehicle,
continuously monitors conditions to
decide when to switch the high beams
off and on.
Once the system is active, the high
beams will switch on if:
• the ambient light level is low
enough
• there is no traffic in front of the
vehicle
• the vehicle speed is greater than
25 mph (40 km/h)
The high beams will switch off if:
• the system detects the headlamps
of an approaching vehicle or the
tail lamps of a preceding vehicle.
• vehicle speed falls below
16 mph
(25 km/h)
• the ambient light level is high
enough that high beams are not
required

Right Information Display
Efficiency Leaves
Efficiency leaves indicate short term
driving efficiency. The more leaves
and vines that are displayed, the
better your fuel economy. Leaves and
vines will occasionally appear and
disappear to indicate a change in
driving efficiency.
Note:
The efficiency leaves display can
be impacted by your use of brakes,
accelerator and accessories, as well as
environmental conditions such as hills
and weather.
Flowers
Flowers appear on the efficiency
leaves screen in addition to the leaves
and vines. The flowers indicate long
term driving efficiency. The more
flowers that are displayed, the more
efficiently you have driven. Once
earned, the flowers will remain unless
reset. The flowers, along with the
vehicle's lifetime fuel economy, can
be reset through the information
display. See General Information
(page 103).
Common Displays
Note: Battery gauge information can
be individually selected on or off
through Battery Display in the Options
sub-menu. From any main display a
right arrow press on the steering wheel
controls will take you to the options
sub-menu. Battery Gauge:
The high-voltage battery gauge
appears on the right side of the left
information display screen. This
provides Charge Fill (State of Charge),
Charge Assist and Regen Display.
Charge Fill (Hybrid Mode)
The fill level, or State of Charge
indicates the amount of energy stored
in the high-voltage battery as a
percent of total energy capacity. The
level will increase or decrease as the
battery charges and discharges during
normal operation, but the hybrid
system will attempt to control the
level to approximately the middle of
the gauge under most driving
conditions.
Charge Assist
The up and down arrows provide
information about the energy going
into and out of the high-voltage
battery. The up arrow above the
battery indicates battery charging
such as from regenerative braking.
The down arrow below the battery
indicates battery discharging to
provide power for propulsion or
vehicle accessories.
Regen Display
A circular arrow symbol appears in the
center of the Battery Gauge when
energy is being recaptured through
the regenerative braking system.

Service Engine Soon
If the service engine soon
indicator light stays
illuminated after the engine
is started, it indicates that the On
Board Diagnostics system (OBD) has
detected a malfunction of the vehicle
emissions control system. Refer to On
board diagnostics (OBD) in the Fuel
and Refueling chapter for more
information about having your vehicle
serviced. See Emission Control
System (page 179).
If the light is blinking, engine misfire is
occurring which could damage your
catalytic converter. Drive in a
moderate fashion (avoid heavy
acceleration and deceleration) and
have your vehicle serviced
immediately.
Note: Under engine misfire conditions,
excessive exhaust temperatures could
damage the catalytic converter or other
vehicle components.
The service engine soon indicator light
illuminates when the ignition is first
turned on prior to engine start to
check the bulb and to indicate
whether the vehicle is ready for
Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) testing.
Normally, the service engine soon light
will stay on until the engine is cranked,
then turn itself off if no malfunctions
are present. However, if after 15
seconds the service engine soon light
blinks eight times, it means that the
vehicle is not ready for I/M testing.
See
Emission Control System
(page 179). Stability Control It will flash when the system
is active. If it remains
illuminated or does not
illuminate when you switch the
ignition on, this indicates a
