2020 LINCOLN MKZ warning

When Inflating Your Tires
WARNING: Do not use the tire
pressure displayed in the information
display as a tire pressure gauge. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in
personal injury or death.
When putting air into your tires (such as at a
gas station or in your garage), the tire
pressure monitoring system will not respond
immediately to the air added to your tires.
It could take up to two minutes of driving
over
20 mph (32 km/h) for the light to turn
off after you have filled your tires to the
recommended inflation pressure.
How Temperature Affects Your Tire
Pressure
The tire pressure monitoring system monitors
tire pressure in each pneumatic tire. While
driving in a normal manner, a typical
passenger tire inflation pressure could
increase about
2–4 psi (14–28 kPa) from a
cold start situation. If the vehicle is stationary
overnight with the outside temperature significantly lower than the daytime
temperature, the tire pressure could
decrease about
3 psi (21 kPa) for a drop of
30°F (17°C) in ambient temperature. This
lower pressure value could be detected by
the tire pressure monitoring system as being
significantly lower than the recommended
inflation pressure and activate the system
warning light for low tire pressure. If the low
tire pressure warning light is on, visually
check each tire to verify that no tire is flat. If
one or more tires are flat, repair as
necessary. Check the air pressure in the road
tires. If any tire is under-inflated, carefully
drive the vehicle to the nearest location
where air can be added to the tires. Inflate
all the tires to the recommended inflation
pressure.
CHANGING A ROAD WHEEL
(IF
EQUIPPED) WARNING:
If the tire pressure
monitor sensor becomes damaged it may
not function. Note:
The tire pressure monitoring system
indicator light illuminates when the spare
tire is in use. To restore the full function of
the monitoring system, mount all road
wheels equipped with tire pressure
monitoring sensors on the vehicle.
Note: You should only use tire sealants in
roadside emergencies as they may cause
damage to the tire pressure monitoring
system sensor.
If you get a flat tire when driving, do not
apply the brake heavily. Instead, gradually
decrease your speed. Hold the steering
wheel firmly and slowly move to a safe place
on the side of the road.
Have a flat serviced by an authorized dealer
to prevent damage to the tire pressure
monitoring system sensors.
See Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (page 350).
Replace the spare tire with a road tire as
soon as possible. During repairing or
replacing of the flat tire, have an authorized
dealer inspect the tire pressure monitoring
system sensor for damage.

Dissimilar Spare Wheel and Tire
Assembly Information
WARNING: Failure to follow these
guidelines could result in an increased risk
of loss of vehicle control, injury or death. If you have a dissimilar spare wheel and tire,
use it for temporary use only. This means
that if you need to use it, you should replace
it as soon as possible with a road wheel and
tire assembly that is the same size and type
as the road tires and wheels that originally
came with your vehicle. If the dissimilar spare
tire or wheel is damaged, replace it instead
of repairing it.
Important Use of Spare Wheel
A dissimilar spare wheel and tire assembly is a spare wheel and tire ass\
embly that is different in brand, size or appearance from the road
tires and wheels and can be one of three types: Types of Spare Wheels
T-type mini-spare. 1
Full-size dissimilar spare with label on wheel. 2
Full-size dissimilar spare without label on wheel.
1 This spare tire begins with the letter T for tire size and may have Temporary Use Only molded in the sidewall.
2 This spare tire has a label on the wheel that states: THIS WHEEL AND TIR\
E ASSEMBLY FOR TEMPORARY USE ONLY.

Changing a Road Wheel Procedure WARNING:
When one of the front
wheels is off the ground, the transmission
alone will not prevent the vehicle from
moving or slipping off the jack, even if the
transmission is in park (P).
357
MKZ (CC9) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 201905, Second-Printing Wheels and Tires

WARNING: To help prevent your
vehicle from moving when changing a
wheel, shift the transmission into park (P),
set the parking brake and use an
appropriate block or wheel chock to
secure the wheel diagonally opposite to
the wheel being changed. For example,
when changing the front left wheel, place
an appropriate block or wheel chock on
the right rear wheel. WARNING:
Do not work on your
vehicle when the jack is the only support.
If the vehicle slips off the jack, you or
someone else could be seriously injured. WARNING:
Check that the vehicle
jack is not damaged or deformed and the
thread is lubricated and clean. WARNING:
Never place anything
between the vehicle jack and your vehicle. WARNING:
Never place anything
between the vehicle jack and the ground. WARNING: Do not attempt to change
a tire on the side of the vehicle close to
moving traffic. Pull far enough off the road
to avoid the danger of being hit when
operating the jack or changing the wheel. WARNING:
Park your vehicle so that
you do not obstruct the flow of traffic or
place yourself in any danger and set up a
warning triangle. WARNING:
The jack supplied with
this vehicle is only intended for changing
wheels. Do not use the vehicle jack other
than when you are changing a wheel in an
emergency. WARNING:
Always use the jack
provided as original equipment with your
vehicle. If using a jack other than the one
provided, make sure the jack capacity is
adequate for the vehicle weight, including
any vehicle cargo or modifications. If you
are unsure if the jack capacity is adequate,
contact the authorized dealer. WARNING:
Use only the specified
jacking points. If you use other positions,
you may damage the body, steering,
suspension, engine, braking system or the
fuel lines. WARNING:
Failure to follow these
guidelines could result in an increased risk
of loss of vehicle control, injury or death. Note:
Do not allow passengers to remain in
your vehicle when using the jack on the
vehicle.
1. Park on a level surface, set the parking brake and activate the hazard flashers.

10.
If jacking on the roadside shoulder, set
the warning triangle upright on the
shoulder in the direction of oncoming
traffic if the vehicle has a warning
triangle.
11. Loosen each wheel lug nut one-half turn counterclockwise, but do not
remove them until you raise the wheel
off the ground. 12. You can identify the vehicle jacking
points by the triangle markings on the
molding as shown. The triangle marking
may be on the side or the underside of
the molding. On vehicles without
moldings, a pair of arrows on the metal
flange pointing to the jacking point
between them identifies the jacking
points. The warning label on the jack
depicts the details. 13.
Place the jack at the jacking point next
to the tire you are changing. Turn the
jack handle clockwise until the wheel
is completely off the ground. 14. Remove the lug nuts with the lug
wrench.
15. Replace the flat tire with the spare tire,
making sure the valve stem is facing
outward. Reinstall the lug nuts until the
wheel is snug against the hub. Do not
fully tighten the lug nuts until you lower
the wheel. If you are using the
temporary tire, the lug nut washers do
not appear to be flush with the rim. This
is normal only when using the
temporary spare tire.
16. Lower the wheel by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.
17. Remove the jack and fully tighten the lug nuts in the order shown. See
Technical Specifications (page 363).

18.
To store the folded wrench on the jack,
engage the bracket of the jack base on
the wrench feature as shown. Swing
the wrench upward and adjust the
height of the jack until the pin engages
the hole. Tighten the hex nut clockwise
by hand until secure. 19. Put the flat tire, jack and lug wrench
away. Make sure the jack is fastened
securely before you drive.
20. Unblock the wheel and retrieve the warning triangle. Stowing the Flat Tire Without the
Retainer Strap
You can temporarily stow the full-size road
wheel in the spare tire compartment.
1.
Lift the carpeted wheel cover at an angle
to access the spare tire compartment.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Wheel Lug Nut Torque Specifications
WARNING: When you install a wheel, always remove any corrosion, dirt or foreign m\
aterials present on the mounting surfaces of the
wheel or the surface of the wheel hub, brake drum or brake disc that contacts the wheel. Make sure to secure any fasteners that attach
the rotor to the hub so they do not interfere with the mounting surfaces\
of the wheel. Installing wheels without correct metal-to-metal contact
at the wheel mounting surfaces can cause the wheel nuts to loosen and th\
e wheel to come off while your vehicle is in motion, resulting in
loss of vehicle control, personal injury or death. lb.ft (Nm)
