arming the system in different ways. See
Information Displays
(page 108).

sounds if the system triggers while the
alarm is armed.
Take all remote controls to an authorized
dealer if there is any potential alarm
problem with your vehicle.

Full Guard (If Equipped)
To monitor the following:
• Doors.
• Hood.
• Tailgate.
• Movement inside your vehicle.
• Change in vehicle inclination, for
example, unwanted towing.
Lock your vehicle using the remote control
or the power door lock control with the
accompanying door open and then close
all doors.
Note: Do not choose full monitor mode if
movement within the vehicle is likely to
occur or when the vehicle is in transport.
Note: For correct operation of the interior
motion detection system, make sure all
windows are closed prior to arming the
system. This helps prevent accidental alarm
activation due to external influences and
make sure of correct interior motion
detection. Additionally, the interior motion
sensing system will not arm if any door is
ajar.
Arming the Alarm
The alarm is ready to arm when there is
not a key in the ignition. Lock your vehicle
to arm the alarm.
The direction indicators flash once after
you lock your vehicle. This indicates the
alarm is in the pre-armed mode. It fully
arms after 20 seconds.
Disarming the Alarm
Disarm the alarm by any of the following
actions:
• Press the power door unlock button
within the 20-second pre-armed mode.
• Unlock the doors with the remote
control or keyless entry keypad. •
Switch the ignition on or start your
vehicle.
• Use a key in the driver door lock
cylinder to unlock your vehicle, then
switch the ignition on within 12
seconds.
Note: Pressing the panic button on the
remote control stops the horn and direction
indicators, but will not disarm the system.

The system does not position the vehicle where I want in the space
You pulled your vehicle too far past the parking space. The system performs best when
you drive the same distance past the parking space.
The tires may not be installed or maintained correctly (not inflated correctly, improper
size, or of different sizes).
A repair or alteration has changed detection capabilities.
A parked vehicle has a high attachment (salt sprayer, snowplow or moving truck bed).
The parking space length or position of parked objects changed after your vehicle passed.
The temperature around your vehicle changes quickly (driving from a heated garage
into the cold, or after leaving a car wash).
You didn't wait for the steering wheel to complete its rotation after a gear change. The
system performs best when the steering wheel is allowed to finish rotating before
accelerating.
REAR VIEW CAMERA (If Equipped) WARNINGS
The rear view camera system is a
reverse aid supplement device that
still requires the driver to use it in
conjunction with the interior and exterior
mirrors for maximum coverage. Objects that are close to either
corner of the bumper or under the
bumper, might not be seen on the
screen due to the limited coverage of the
camera system. Back up as slow as possible since
higher speeds might limit your
reaction time to stop your vehicle.
Use caution when using the rear
video camera when the tailgate is
ajar. If the tailgate is ajar, the camera
will be out of position and the video image
may be incorrect. All guidelines have been
removed when the tailgate is ajar. WARNINGS
Use caution when turning camera
features on or off while in reverse
(R). Make sure your vehicle is not
moving. The rear view camera system provides a
video image of the area behind your
vehicle.
During operation, lines appear in the
display which represent your vehicle
’s path
and proximity to objects behind your
vehicle. 214
F-150 (TFC) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 08/2015, First Printing Parking AidsE184050

The camera is located on the tailgate
handle.
Using the Rear View Camera
System
The rear view camera system displays
what is behind your vehicle when you place
the transmission in reverse (R).
Note:
The reverse sensing system is not
effective at speeds above 3 mph (5 km/h)
and may not detect certain angular or
moving objects.
The system uses three types of guides to
help you see what is behind your vehicle:
• Active guidelines: Show the intended
path of your vehicle while reversing.
• Fixed guidelines: Show the actual path
your vehicle is moving in while reversing
in a straight line. This can be helpful
when backing into a parking space or
aligning your vehicle with another
object behind you.
• Centerline: Helps align the center of
your vehicle with an object (for
example, a trailer).
Note: If the image comes on while the
transmission is not in reverse (R), have the
system inspected by your authorized dealer.
Note: When towing, the camera only sees
what you are towing behind your vehicle.
This might not provide adequate coverage
as it usually provides in normal operation
and you might not see some objects. In
some vehicles, the guidelines may disappear
once you engage the trailer tow connector.
Note: If your vehicle is equipped with Pro
Trailer Backup Assist you can set-up the
trailer to work with the Rear View Camera
system. See
Pro Trailer Backup Assist™
(page 253). The camera may not operate correctly
under the following conditions:
•
Nighttime or dark areas if the reverse
lamps are not operating.
• Mud, water or debris obstructs the
camera's view. Clean the lens with a
soft, lint-free cloth and non-abrasive
cleaner.
• The rear of your vehicle is hit or
damaged, causing the camera to
become misaligned.
Guidelines and the Centerline
Note: Active guidelines and fixed guidelines
are only available when the transmission is
in reverse (R).
Note: The centerline is only available if
active or fixed guidelines are on.
