2016 LINCOLN MKZ wheel

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 againafter 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.
Memory Feature
You can save and recall the steering column
position with the memory function. See

Note: Pressing the adjustment control during
memory recall cancels the operation. The
column responds to the adjustment control. Easy Entry and Exit Feature

column will move to the full up position to
allow extra room to exit your vehicle. The
