2013 LINCOLN MKZ climate control

The heated seats only operate when
the ignition is on.
•
Press the heated seat
symbol/button to cycle through
the various heat settings and off.
Warmer settings are indicated by
more indicator lights.
• Press again to deactivate.
The heated seat module resets at
every ignition run cycle. While the
ignition is on, activating the high or low
heated seat switch enables heating
mode. When activated, they will turn
off automatically when the engine is
turned off.
VENTILATED SEATS (IF
EQUIPPED)
The cooled seats will only function
when the engine is running.
To operate the cooled seats: Press the cooled seat symbol to cycle
through the various cooling settings
and off. Cooler settings are indicated
by more indicator lights.
If the engine falls below 350 rpms
while the cooled seats are on, the
feature will turn itself off and will need
to be reactivated.
Heated and cooled seat air
filter replacement (if
equipped)
The climate controlled seat system
includes air filters that must be
replaced periodically.
The filters are located under each
front seat and can be accessed from
the second row foot-well area. Move
the front seats all the way forward
and to the full up positions to ease
access.

2. Put the transmission in position P
or N.
3. Press the START button. The engine may continue cranking for
up to 15 seconds or until it starts.
Note: If you cannot start the engine on
the first try, wait for a short period and
try again.
If you have difficulty starting the
engine when the temperature is below
-13°F (-25°C), press the accelerator
pedal slightly and try again.
If you cannot start the engine after
three attempts, wait 10 seconds and
follow this procedure:
1. Fully press the brake pedal.
2. Fully press the accelerator pedal and hold it there.
3. Put the transmission in position P.
4. Press the START button.
Guarding Against Exhaust
Fumes WARNING
If you smell exhaust fumes inside
your vehicle, have your vehicle
checked by your authorized dealer
immediately. Do not drive your vehicle
if you smell exhaust fumes. Carbon
monoxide is present in exhaust fumes.
Take precautions to avoid its
dangerous effects. Important Ventilating
Information
If you stop your vehicle and the leave
the engine idling for long periods, we
recommend that you do one of the
following:
•
Open the windows at least 1 inch
(2.5 centimeters)
• Set your climate control to outside
air.
ENGINE BLOCK HEATER
(IF
EQUIPPED) WARNINGS
Failure to follow engine block
heater instructions could result
in property damage or serious
personal injury. Do not use your heater with
ungrounded electrical systems
or two-pronged adapters. There is a
risk of electrical shock. Note:
The heater is most effective
when outdoor temperatures are below
0°F (-18°C).
The heater acts as a starting aid by
warming the engine coolant. This
allows the climate control system to
respond quickly. The equipment
includes a heater element (installed
in the engine block) and a wire
harness. You can connect the system
to a grounded 120 volt AC electrical
source.

Starting and Stopping the Engine

We recommend using a wheel lift and
dollies or flatbed equipment. Do not
tow with a slingbelt. Ford Motor
Company has not approved a
slingbelt towing procedure. If towed
incorrectly, or by any other means,
vehicle damage may occur.
Ford Motor Company produces a
towing manual for all authorized tow
truck operators. Have your tow truck
operator refer to this manual for
proper hook-up and towing
procedures for your vehicle.
It is acceptable to tow a front-wheel
drive (FWD) vehicle from the front if
using proper wheel lift equipment to
raise the front wheels off the ground.
The rear wheels can remain on the
ground when towed in this fashion.
FWD vehicles can also be towed from
the rear using wheel lift equipment;
however, the front wheels must be
placed on a dolly to prevent damage
to the transmission.
It is required to tow an all-wheel drive
(AWD) vehicle with a wheel lift and
dollies or flatbed equipment, with all
the wheels off the ground, to prevent
damage to the transmission, AWD
system or vehicle.
TOWING THE VEHICLE ON
FOUR WHEELS
Emergency Towing
You can flat-tow (all wheels on the
ground, regardless of the
powertrain/transmission
configuration) your disabled vehicle
(without access to wheel dollies,
car-hauling trailer, or flatbed transport
vehicle) under the following
conditions:
•
Your vehicle is facing forward so
you tow it in a forward direction.
• You place the transmission in
position N. If you cannot place the
transmission in position N, you
may need to override it. See
Transmission
(page 165).
• Maximum speed is 35 mph (56
km/h).
• Maximum distance is 50 miles (80
kilometers).
Recreational Towing
Note: Put your climate control system
in recirculated air mode to prevent
exhaust fumes from entering the
vehicle. See
Climate Control (page
126).
Follow these guidelines if you have a
need for recreational (RV) towing. An
example of recreational towing would
be towing your vehicle behind a
motorhome. These guidelines are to
make sure you do not damage the
transmission during towing.

Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a comparative
rating based on the wear rate of the
tire when tested under controlled
conditions on a specified government
test course. For example, a tire graded
150 would wear one and one-half (1
½) times as well on the government
course as a tire graded 100. The
relative performance of tires depends
upon the actual conditions of their
use, however, and may depart
significantly from the norm due to
variations in driving habits, service
practices, and differences in road
characteristics and climate.
Traction AA A B C
WARNING
The traction grade assigned to
this tire is based on
straight-ahead braking traction tests,
and does not include acceleration,
cornering, hydroplaning or peak
traction characteristics. The traction grades, from highest to
lowest are AA, A, B, and C. The grades
represent the tire
’s ability to stop on
wet pavement as measured under
controlled conditions on specified
government test surfaces of asphalt
and concrete. A tire marked C may
have poor traction performance. Temperature A B C WARNING
The temperature grade for this
tire is established for a tire that
is properly inflated and not
overloaded. Excessive speed,
underinflation, or excessive loading,
either separately or in combination,
can cause heat buildup and possible
tire failure. The temperature grades are A (the
highest), B and C, representing the
tire
’s resistance to the generation of
heat and its ability to dissipate heat
when tested under controlled
conditions on a specified indoor
laboratory test wheel. Sustained high
temperature can cause the material
of the tire to degenerate and reduce
tire life, and excessive temperature
can lead to sudden tire failure. The
grade C corresponds to a level of
performance which all passenger car
tires must meet under the Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No.
139. Grades B and A represent higher
levels of performance on the
laboratory test wheel than the
minimum required by law.

GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING
Driving while distracted can
result in loss of vehicle control,
accident and injury. Ford strongly
recommends that drivers use extreme
caution when using any device or
feature that may take their focus off
the road. Your primary responsibility
is the safe operation of the vehicle.
We recommend against the use of any
handheld device while driving,
encourage the use of voice-operated
systems when possible and that you
become aware of applicable state
and local laws that may affect use of
electronic devices while driving. Note:
Some features are not available
while the vehicle is moving.
Note: Your system is equipped with a
feature that allows you to access and
control audio features for 30 minutes
after the ignition has been turned off
(as long as no doors are opened).
This system uses a four-corner
strategy to provide quick access to
vehicle features and settings. The
comprehensive touchscreen provides
easy interaction with your cellular
phone, multimedia, climate control
and navigation system. The corners
display any active modes within those
menus, such as your phone being
connected or the climate
temperature. SETTINGS Press to select any of the following:
