2013 LINCOLN MKZ remote control

Both heated mirrors remove ice, mist
and fog when you switch on the
heated rear window.
CABIN AIR FILTER
Your vehicle is equipped with a cabin
air filter. It is located behind the glove
box.
The particulate filtration system
reduces the concentration of airborne
particles such as dust, spores and
pollen in the air supplied to the interior
of your vehicle.
Note:
To prevent foreign objects from
entering the system, make sure the
cabin air is in place at all times.
Running the system without a filter in
place could result in degradation or
damage to the system.
The particulate filtration system gives
you and your passengers the following
benefits:
• It improves your driving comfort by
reducing particle concentration.
• It improves the interior
compartment cleanliness.
• It protects the climate control
components from particle
deposits.
Replace the filter at regular intervals.
See Scheduled Maintenance (page
440).
For additional cabin air filter
information, or to replace the filter,
see an authorized dealer. REMOTE START
The climate control system adjusts
the cabin temperature during remote
start.
You cannot adjust the system during
remote start operation. Turn the
ignition on to return the system to its
previous settings. You can now make
adjustments. You need to turn certain
vehicle-dependent features back on,
such as:
•
heated seats
• cooled seats
• heated steering wheel
• heated mirrors
• heated rear window.
You can adjust the settings using the
information display controls.
See
Information Displays (page 100).
Automatic Settings
You can set the climate control to
operate in AUTO mode through the
information display setting: Remote
Start > Climate Control > Heater-A/C
> Auto. The climate control system
automatically sets the interior
temperature to 72°F (22°C).
In hot weather, the system is set to
72°F (22°C). Cooled seats are set to
high (if available, and selected to
AUTO in the information display).
In moderate weather, the system
either heats or cools (based on
previous settings). The rear defroster,
heated mirrors and heated/cooled
seats do not automatically turn on.

WARNINGS
Make sure that the garage door
and security device are free from
obstruction when you are
programming. Do not program the
system with the vehicle in the garage. Do not use the system with any
garage door opener that does
not have the safety stop and reverse
feature as required by U.S. Federal
Safety Standards (this includes any
garage door opener manufactured
before April 1, 1982). Note:
Make sure you keep the original
remote control transmitter for use in
other vehicles as well as for future
system programming.
Note: We recommend that upon the
sale or lease termination of your
vehicle, you erase the programmed
function buttons for security reasons.
See Erasing the function button codes
later in this section.
Note: You can program a maximum
of three devices. To change or replace
any of the three devices after it has
been initially programmed, you must
first erase the current settings. See
Erasing the function button codes later
in this section. The universal garage door opener
replaces the common hand-held
garage door opener with a
three-button transmitter that is
integrated into the driver
’s sun visor.
The system includes two primary
features, a garage door opener and a
platform for remote activation of
devices within the home. As well as
being programmed for garage doors,
the system transmitter can be
programmed to operate entry gate
operators, security systems, entry
door locks and home or office lighting.
Additional system information can be
found online at www.homelink.com
or by calling the toll-free help line on
1-800-355-3515.
Programming
Note: Put a new battery in the
hand-held transmitter. This will ensure
quicker training and accurate
transmission of the radio-frequency
signal.

Action
Cause
Clean the grille surface in front of the
radar or remove the object causing the obstruction.
The surface of the radar in the grille is
dirty or obstructed in some way.
Wait a short time. It may take several
minutes for the radar to detect that it is no longer obstructed
The surface of the radar in the grille is
clean but the message remains in the display.
Do not use the system in these condi-tion because it may not detect, warn, or respond to potential collisions.
Heavy rain or snow is interfering with
the radar signals.
Do not use the system in these condi-tion because it may not detect, warn, or respond to potential collisions.
Swirling water, or snow or ice on the
surface of the road may interfere with the radar signals.
Wait a short time or switch to normalcruise control.
You are in a desert or remote area with
no other vehicles and no roadside objects.
Due to the nature of radar technology,
it is possible to get a blockage warning
and not be blocked. This can happen,
for example, when driving in sparse
rural or desert environments. A false
blocked condition will either self clear
or clear after a key cycle.
Switching to Normal Cruise
Control WARNING
Normal cruise control will not
brake due to slower vehicles.
Always be aware of which mode is
selected and apply the brakes when
necessary. You can manually change from
adaptive cruise control to normal
cruise control through the information
display.
The cruise control indicator
light will replace the adaptive
cruise control indicator light
if normal cruise control is selected.
The gap setting will not be displayed,
the system will not automatically
respond to lead vehicles and
automatic braking will not be
activated. The system will default to
adaptive cruise control when the
engine is started.

WARNINGS
Use of any tire or wheel not
recommended by Ford can affect the
safety and performance of your
vehicle, which could result in an
increased risk of loss of vehicle
control, vehicle rollover, personal
injury and death. Additionally the use
of non-recommended tires and
wheels could cause steering,
suspension, axle, transfer case or
power transfer unit failure. If you have
questions regarding tire replacement,
contact your authorized dealer as
soon as possible. When mounting replacement
tires and wheels, you should not
exceed the maximum pressure
indicated on the sidewall of the tire to
set the beads without additional
precautions listed below. If the beads
do not seat at the maximum pressure
indicated, re-lubricate and try again
When inflating the tire for mounting
pressures up to 20 psi (1.38 bar)
greater than the maximum pressure
on the tire sidewall, the following
precautions must be taken to protect
the person mounting the tire:
1. Make sure that you have the correct
tire and wheel size.
2. Lubricate the tire bead and wheel
bead seat area again.
3. Stand at a minimum of 12 feet (3.66
meters) away from the wheel and tire
assembly.
4. Use both eye and ear protection. WARNINGS
For a mounting pressure more than
20 psi (1.38 bar) greater than the
maximum pressure, a Ford dealer or
other tire service professional should
do the mounting.
Always inflate steel carcass tires with
a remote air fill with the person
inflating standing at a minimum of 12
ft (3.66 m) away from the wheel and
tire assembly Important: Remember to replace the
wheel valve stems when the road tires
are replaced on your vehicle
It is recommended that the two front
tires or two rear tires generally be
replaced as a pair.
The tire pressure sensors mounted in
the wheels (originally installed on your
vehicle) are not designed to be used
in aftermarket wheels.
The use of wheels or tires not
recommended by Ford Motor
Company may affect the operation of
your tire pressure monitoring system.
If the TPMS indicator is flashing, your
TPMS is malfunctioning. Your
