2015 LINCOLN NAVIGATOR warning

Your vehicle has a collection of crash and occupant sensors which
provide information to the restraints control module. The restraints
control module deploys (activates) the front safety belt pretensioners,
driver airbag, passenger airbag, seat mounted side airbags, and the
Safety Canopy. Based on the type of accident (frontal impact, side
impact or rollover) the restraints control module will deploy the
appropriate safety devices.
The restraints control module also monitors the readiness of the above
safety devices plus the crash and occupant sensors. The readiness of the
safety system is indicated by a warning indicator light in the instrument
cluster or by a backup tone if the warning light is not working. See the
Instrument Clusterchapter. Routine maintenance of the airbag is not
required.
A difficulty with the system is indicated by one or more of the following:
•The readiness light will either flash or stay lit.
• The readiness light will not illuminate immediately after the
ignition is turned on.
• A series of five beeps will be heard. The tone pattern will repeat
periodically until the problem or light are repaired.
If any of these things happen, even intermittently, have the supplemental
restraint system serviced at an authorized dealer immediately. Unless
serviced, the system may not function properly in the event of a crash.
The safety belt pretensioners and the airbag supplemental restraint
system are designed to activate when the vehicle sustains frontal or
sideways deceleration sufficient to cause the restraints control module to
deploy a safety device or when a certain likelihood of a rollover event is
detected by the rollover sensor.
The fact that the safety belt pretensioners or airbags did not activate for
both front seat occupants in a crash does not mean that something is
wrong with the system. Rather, it means the restraints control module
determined the accident conditions (for example, crash severity, belt
usage) were not appropriate to activate these safety devices.
• The design of the front airbags is to activate only in frontal and
near-frontal crashes (not rollovers, side impacts or rear impacts)
unless the crash causes sufficient frontal deceleration.
• The design of the safety belt pretensioners is to activate in frontal,
near-frontal and side crashes, and in rollovers.

Remote Start (If Equipped)
WARNING:To avoid exhaust fumes, do not use remote start if
your vehicle is parked indoors or areas that are not well
ventilated.
Note: Do not use remote start if your vehicle is low on fuel.
The remote start button is on the transmitter.
This feature allows you to start your vehicle from outside your vehicle.
The transmitter has an extended operating range.
Vehicles with automatic climate control can be configured to operate
when the vehicle is remote started. See the Climate Controlchapter for
more information. A manual climate control system will run at the setting
it was set to when your vehicle was last turned off.
Many states and provinces have restrictions for the use of remote start.
Check your local and state or provincial laws for specific requirements
regarding remote start systems.
The remote start system will not work if:
• the ignition is on
• the alarm system is triggered
• you disable the feature
• the hood is open
• the transmission is not in P
• the vehicle battery voltage is too low
• the service engine soon light is on.
Remote Starting the Vehicle
Note: You must press each button within three seconds of each other.
Your vehicle will not remote start and the horn will not sound if you do
not follow this sequence.
Keys and Remote Control 57

PRINCIPLES 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 (push-button start), when both
a MyKey and an admin transmitter are present, the admin transmitter
will be recognized 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:
traction control, parking aid, blind spot information system (BLIS)
with cross traffic alert, lane departure warning and the 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.
• Various vehicle speed minders can be set. Once you select a speed, it
will be shown in the display, followed by an audible tone when the
preselected vehicle speed is exceeded.

WARNING:Do not set MyKey maximum speed limit to a limit
that will prevent the driver from maintaining a safe speed
considering posted speed limits and prevailing road conditions. The
driver is always responsible to drive in accordance with local laws and
prevailing conditions. Failure to do so could result in accident or injury.
• Audio system maximum volume of 45% for some audio systems. A
message will be shown in the display when you attempt to exceed the
limited volume. Also, the speed-sensitive or compensated automatic
volume control will be disabled.
• Always on setting. When this is selected, you will not be able to turn
off certain features.

LIFTGATE
WARNING: Do not allow people to travel in any area of your
vehicle that does not have seats and safety belts. Riding in a
cargo area, inside or outside of the vehicle, is extremely dangerous. In a
crash, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seriously
injured or killed. Make sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and
using a safety belt correctly. Failure to follow this warning could result
in serious personal injury or death.
Power Liftgate
WARNING: Make sure all persons are clear of the power liftgate
area before using the power liftgate control.
WARNING: Keep keys out of the reach of children. Do not allow
children to operate the power liftgate, or to play near an open or
moving power liftgate.
Note: Cycling the ignition while the liftgate is power closing and is near
the latch may cause the liftgate to reverse to full open position. Make
sure you close the liftgate before operating or moving the vehicle,
especially in an enclosure, like a garage or a parking structure. You could
damage the liftgate or its components.

Obstacle Detection
When closing:The liftgate reverses to full open when it detects an
obstacle. A chime sounds three times as the liftgate begins to reopen.
Remove the obstacle to close the liftgate.
Note: Entering your vehicle while the liftgate is closing can cause your
vehicle to bounce and activate obstacle detection. To prevent this, let the
power liftgate close completely before you enter your vehicle. Before
driving off, check the instrument cluster for a liftgate or door ajar
message or warning indicator. Failure to do this could result in
unintentionally leaving the liftgate open while driving.
When opening: The system stops when it detects an obstacle and a
tone sounds three times. Remove the obstacle to operate the liftgate.
Resetting the Power Liftgate
The liftgate may not operate properly and you may need to reset it if any
of the following conditions occur:
• A low voltage or dead battery.
• Disconnected battery.
• The liftgate is manually closed and left ajar (unlatched).
To reset the power liftgate:
1.
Disconnect the battery for 20 seconds, and then reconnect the battery.
2. Manually close and fully latch the liftgate.
3. Power open the liftgate by using the remote control or the instrument panel button.
