Fast Restart
The fast restart feature allows you to
restart the engine within 20 seconds of
switching it off, even if a valid key is not
present.
Within 20 seconds of switching the engine
off, press the brake pedal and press the
button. After 20 seconds have expired,
you can no longer restart the vehicle
without the key present inside your
vehicle.
Once the vehicle has started, it remains
running until you press the button, even if
the system does not detect a valid key. If
you open and close a door while the
vehicle is running, the system searches
for a valid key. You cannot restart the
engine if the system does not detect a
valid key within 20 seconds.
Automatic Shutdown
This feature automatically shuts down the
vehicle if it has been idling for an extended
period. The ignition also turns off in order
to save battery power. Before the vehicle
shuts down, a message appears in the
information display showing a timer
counting down from 30 seconds. If you do
not intervene within 30 seconds, the
vehicle shuts down. Another message
appears in the information display to
inform you that the vehicle has shut down
in order to save fuel. Start your vehicle as
you normally do.
Automatic Shutdown Override
Note:
You cannot permanently switch off
the automatic shutdown feature. When
you switch it off temporarily, it turns on at
the next ignition cycle. You can stop the shutdown, or reset the
timer, at any point before the 30-second
countdown has expired by doing any of
the following:
•
You can reset the timer by interacting
with your vehicle (such as pressing the
brake pedal or accelerator pedal).
• You can temporarily switch off the
shutdown feature any time the ignition
is on (for the current ignition cycle
only). Use the information display to
do so. See Information Displays
(page 97).
• During the countdown before
shutdown, you are prompted to press
OK or RESET (depending on your type
of information display) to temporarily
switch the feature off (for the current
ignition cycle only).
Switching Off the Vehicle When It Is
Stationary
1. Put the transmission in position
P.
2. Press the button once.
3. Apply the parking brake.
Note: This switches off the ignition, all
electrical circuits, warning lamps and
indicators.
Note: If the engine is idling for 30 minutes,
the ignition and engine automatically shut
down.

MKZ (CC9) Starting and Stopping the Engine

•
Keep the tires properly inflated and
only use the recommended size.
• Aggressive driving increases the
amount of energy required to move
your vehicle. In general, you can
achieve better fuel economy with mild
to moderate acceleration and
deceleration. Moderate braking is
particularly important since it allows
you to maximize the energy captured
by the regenerative braking system.
Additional Tips:
• Do not carry extra loads.
• Be mindful of adding external
accessories that may increase
aerodynamic drag.
• Observe posted speed limits.
• Perform all scheduled maintenance.
• There is no need to wait for your
engine to warm up. The vehicle is
ready to drive immediately after
starting. EV+ Mode
Your vehicle will recognize your frequent
destinations and allow for more EV driving
as you approach them. For example, when
nearing your home it should be easier to
stay in electric mode. The EV indicator will
display EV+ when this mode is active. You
should see this about 1/8 mile (200 meters)
from a frequent destination. See
Information Displays (page 97).
Note: Frequent destinations are learned
by your vehicle after two to four weeks of
use. You can clear these destinations with
a Driving History reset through the
Settings menu.
Note: The EV+ feature can be turned on
or off through the Driver Assist section of
the Settings menu.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
WARNINGS
Always set the parking brake fully
and make sure the vehicle is in P
(Park). Turn the ignition off whenever you
leave your vehicle. Do not apply the brake pedal and
accelerator pedal simultaneously.
Applying both pedals simultaneously for
more than three seconds will limit engine
rpm, which may result in difficulty
maintaining speed in traffic and could lead
to serious injury. Push Button Shift Transmission
Your vehicle is equipped with an electronic
transmission. The shift buttons are located
on the instrument panel, next to the
MyLincoln Touch
™ system. The gears are
selected by pressing and releasing the
PRNDL
buttons. Every time a gear is selected, the selected
button will light up. You will also see the
gear selected appear in the instrument
cluster. Understanding the Positions of your
Electronic Transmission
Note:
Always come to a complete stop
before putting your vehicle into and out
of
P (Park).
Putting your vehicle in gear:
1. Fully press down the brake pedal.

will show the selected gear.
4. Release the brake pedal and your transmission will remain in the selected
gear.
Note: If the driver attempts to leave the
vehicle while it is in gear, the vehicle will
automatically shift into
P (Park). Seatbelt
and door monitors determine the driver's
intent and makes the shift for you. During
this time a
Transmission not in Park
message will appear in the display screen,
prompting the driver to make the shift. To
put the vehicle in gear with the door open
perform steps 1-4. See the
Automatic

• Turn the ignition off
• Open the driver's door with your seat
belt unlatched
• Unlatching your seatbelt while the
driver's door is open
If you turn the ignition off while your
vehicle is moving, your vehicle will first
shift into N (Neutral) until it slows down
enough to shift into P (Park) automatically. Note:
If you have waited an extended
period of time, (2-15 minutes) before
starting your vehicle, unlatching your
safety belt will cause this feature to
activate, even with the driver's door
closed.
Note: This feature may not work properly
if the door ajar switch is malfunctioning. If
your door ajar indicator does not
illuminate when you open the driver’ s door
or the indicator illuminates with the driver’ s
door closed. See your authorized dealer.
