2014 LINCOLN MKZ reset audio

Easy Entry and Exit Feature
When you switch the ignition off, the
steering column will move to the full
up position to allow extra room to exit
your vehicle. The column will return
to the previous setting when you
switch the ignition on. You can enable
or disable this feature in the
information display. See Information
Displays (page 101).
Memory Feature
You can save and recall the steering
column position with the memory
function. See Memory Function
(page 137).
Pressing the adjustment control
during memory recall cancels the
operation. The column responds to
the adjustment control.
The steering column sets a stopping
position just short of the end of the
column position to prevent damage
to the steering column. A new
stopping position sets if the steering
column encounters an object when
tilting or telescoping.
To reset the steering column to its
normal stopping position:
1. Press the steering column control again after encountering the new
stopping position.
2. Continue pressing the control until it reaches the end of the column
position.
A new stopping position is set. The
next time you tilt or telescope the
steering column, it will stop just short
of the end of the column position.AUDIO CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED)

If you see any corrosion on the battery
or terminals, remove the cables from
the terminals and clean with a wire
brush. You can neutralize the acid with
a solution of baking soda and water.
When a battery replacement is
required, the battery should only be
replaced with a Ford recommended
replacement battery that matches
the electrical requirements of the
vehicle.
Because your vehicle’s engine is
electronically-controlled by a
computer, some engine control
settings are maintained by power
from the low voltage battery. Some
engine computer settings, like the idle
trim and fuel trim strategy, optimize
the driveability and performance of
the engine. Some other computer
settings, like the clock and radio
station presets, are also maintained
in memory by power from the low
voltage battery. When a technician
disconnects and connects the low
voltage battery, these settings are
erased. Complete the following
procedure in order to restore the
settings:
1. With the vehicle at a completestop, set the parking brake.
2. Shift the transmission into P.
3. Turn off all accessories.
4. Step on the brake pedal and start the vehicle. 5. Run the engine until it reaches
normal operating temperature.
While the engine is warming up,
complete the following: Reset the
clock. See Audio System (page
124). Reset the power windows
bounce-back feature. See
Windows and Mirrors (page 88).
Reset the radio station presets.
See Audio System (page 124).
6. Allow the engine to idle for at least one minute. If the engine turns off,
step on the accelerator to start the
engine.
7. While the engine is running, step on the brake pedal and shift the
transmission to N.
8. Allow the engine to run for at least one minute by pressing on the
accelerator pedal.
9. Drive the vehicle at least 10 miles (16 kilometers) to completely
relearn the idle and fuel trim
strategy.
Note: If you do not allow the engine to
relearn the idle and fuel trim strategy,
the idle quality of your vehicle may be
adversely affected until the engine
computer eventually relearns the idle
trim and fuel trim strategy.
Note: Always dispose of automotive
batteries in a responsible manner.
Follow your local authorized standards
for disposal. Call your local authorized
recycling center to find out more about
recycling automotive batteries.

The multicast indicator appears in FM
mode (only) if the current station is
broadcasting multiple digital
broadcasts. The highlighted numbers
signify available digital channels
where new or different content is
available. HD1 signifies the main
programming status and is available
in analog and digital broadcasts.
Other multicast stations (HD2 through
HD7) are only available digitally.
TA G allows you to save a song to
download later when you are on an
acquired HD Radio station and the
feature is on. To turn the feature on
and use it:
1. Press AM or FM > Options > TA G
Button > On.
2. When you hear a song you like, touch TA G .
3. The system automatically saves the song's information and
transfers it to your portable music
player (if supported) when you
connect it to the system. The
system automatically transfers the
tag to your player (if already
connected) and a pop-up confirms
the transfer. 4. When you access iTunes with your
portable music player, the tags
appear to you as a reminder. The
system allows you to tag up to
approximately 100 songs. For a list
of devices that support tagging,
see www.SYNCMyRide.com,
www.SYNCMyRide.ca or
www.syncmaroute.ca.
When HD Radio broadcasts are active,
you can access the following
functions:
• Scan allows you to hear a brief
sampling of all available stations.
This feature still works when HD
Radio reception is on, although it
does not scan for HD2-HD7
channels. You may see the HD logo
appear if the station has a digital
broadcast.
• Memory presets allow you to
save an active channel as a
memory preset. Touch and hold a
memory preset slot until the sound
returns. There is a brief mute while
the radio saves the station. Sound
returns when finished. When
switching to an HD2 or HD3
memory preset, the sound mutes
before the digital audio plays,
because the system has to
reacquire the digital signal.
Note: As with any saved radio station,
you cannot access the saved station if
your vehicle is outside the station’s
reception area.
