2020 FORD TRANSIT display

The system may apply the brakes to slow
your vehicle to the new set speed. The set
speed continuously displays in the
information display when the system is
active.
Canceling the Set Speed
Press the button, or tap the
brake pedal.
The last set speed displays with a
strikethrough and the last gap setting
appears but does not erase.
Note: The set speed also cancels if you
press the clutch pedal for an extended
period.
Resuming the Set Speed Press the button.
The vehicle speed returns to the previously
set speed and gap setting. The set speed
continuously shows in the information
display when the system is active.
Note: Only use resume if you are aware of
the set speed and intend to return to it.
Automatic Cancellation
The system does not operate if the vehicle
speed is below 12 mph (20 km/h). A tone
sounds and adaptive braking releases if
the vehicle speed falls below
12 mph
(20 km/h).
Automatic cancellation can also occur
when:
• The tires lose traction.
• The engine speed is too low.
• You apply the parking brake.
Note: If the engine speed drops too low,
the information display advises you to shift
to a lower gear. Hilly Condition Usage
Select a lower gear when the system is
active and you are driving downhill on
steep grades, for example in mountainous
areas. The system needs additional engine
braking in these situations to reduce the
load on the brake system to prevent it from
overheating.
Note:
A tone sounds and the system turns
off if it applies brakes for an extended period
of time. This allows the brakes to cool. The
system operates after the brakes cool.
Switching Adaptive Cruise Control
Off Press the button.
Note: The set speed erases when you
switch the system off.
Detection Issues WARNING:
On rare occasions,
detection issues can occur due to the
road infrastructures, for example bridges,
tunnels and safety barriers. In these
cases, the system may brake late or
unexpectedly. At all times, you are
responsible for controlling your vehicle,
supervising the system and intervening,
if required. WARNING:
If the system
malfunctions, have your vehicle checked
as soon as possible.
The radar has a limited field of view. It does
not detect all vehicles in all situations and
could detect vehicles later that you expect.
The lead vehicle graphic does not display
if the system does not detect a vehicle in
front of you.

The radar is behind the front grille below
the license plate.
A message displays if something obstructs
the radar signals from the sensor. The
system cannot detect a vehicle ahead and
does not function when something blocks
the sensor.
Note:
You cannot see the sensor, it is
behind a fascia panel.
Note: Keep the front of your vehicle free of
dirt, metal badges or objects. Vehicle front
protectors, aftermarket lights, additional
paint or plastic coatings could also degrade
sensor performance. Action
Cause
Clean the radiator grille in front of the radar
or remove any obstruction.
The surface of the radar in the radiator grille
is dirty or obstructed.
Wait a short period of time. It may take
several minutes for the radar to detect that
it is free from obstruction.
The surface of the radar is clean but the
message remains in the display.
Do not use the system in these conditions
because it may not detect any vehicles
ahead.
Heavy rain or snow interfere with the radar
signals.
Do not use the system in these conditions
because it may not detect any vehicles
ahead.
Swirling water, snow or ice on the surface
of the road interfere with the radar signals.
Wait a short period of time or switch to
normal cruise control.
You are in a desert or remote area with no
other vehicles and no roadside objects.
Due to the nature of radar technology, a
blocked sensor message could display
when the sensor is not blocked. This can
happen, for example, when driving in
sparse rural or desert environments. A false
blocked condition self clears or clears after
you switch the ignition off and on. Switching to Normal Cruise
Control WARNING: Normal cruise control
will not brake when your vehicle is
approaching slower vehicles. Always be
aware of which mode you have selected
and apply the brakes when necessary.

LANE KEEPING SYSTEM WARNING: You are responsible for
controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your vehicle,
