2020 LINCOLN NAUTILUS Owners Manual

To toggle through the modes, use the
buttons on the information display to select
the following:
•
Parallel parking.
• Perpendicular parking.
• Parallel park out assist.
• Switch the system off.
Note: There is no time limit for toggling
through the modes.
Parallel Parking
The system detects available parallel parking
spaces and steers your vehicle into the
space. You control the accelerator, gearshift
and brakes. The system visually and audibly
guides you into a parallel parking space. Press the button once to search
for a parking space.
Note: You can also switch the system on
after you have already driven partially or
completely past a parking space. Press the
active park assist button and the system
informs you if you have recently passed a
suitable parking space. When the vehicle speed is less than 22 mph
(35 km/h), the system scans both sides of
your vehicle for an available parking space.
A message and a graphic appear in the
information display to indicate the system is
searching for a parking space. Use the
direction indicator lever to search for a
parking space on the driver or passenger
side of your vehicle.
Note: The system scans both sides of your
vehicle and offers parking spaces one side
at a time if you do not use the direction
indicator.
Note: The system defaults to the passenger
side if you do not use the direction indicator. Drive your vehicle approximately
3 ft (1 m)
and parallel to the other parked vehicles
when searching for a parking space. Note:
If you drive your vehicle less than 2 ft
(0.5 m)
or greater than 5 ft (1.5 m) away from
other parked vehicles, the system may not
be able to detect an available parking
space.
When the system detects a suitable space,
a message displays and a tone sounds. Stop
your vehicle and follow the onscreen
instructions. If your vehicle is moving very
slowly, you may have to move forward a
short distance before the system is ready to
park.
Note: You must observe that the space the
system selects remains clear of obstructions
at all times during the maneuver.
Note: The system always offers the last
parking space it detects. For example, if your
vehicle detects multiple spaces when you
are driving, it offers the last one.
Note: If the vehicle speed is greater than
approximately 22 mph (35 km/h), the system
shows a message to instruct you to reduce
the vehicle speed.

Automatically Steering into a Parallel
Parking Space
When you shift into reverse (R), with your
hands off the steering wheel and nothing
obstructing its movement, your vehicle steers
itself into the space. The system displays
instructions to move your vehicle backward
and forward in the space.
Note:
If the vehicle speed exceeds
approximately 6 mph (9 km/h), you interrupt
the maneuver, or the system switches off,
you must take full control of your vehicle.
Note: If the system detects an object is very
close to your vehicle and it may be unsafe
to continue the maneuver, it may instruct you
to stop your vehicle. The system may not
provide any further instruction. Steering
assistance continues to operate but you
must decide if it is safe to continue the
maneuver. When you believe your vehicle is correctly
parked, or a solid tone sounds and an
information message appears, bring your
vehicle to a complete stop.
When the Active Park Assist maneuver is
complete, a tone sounds and an information
message appears.
Note:
You are responsible for checking how
your vehicle is parked and making any
necessary corrections before leaving your
vehicle.

available when the clearance to the front or
the rear of your vehicle is too small.
Note: If the vehicle speed exceeds
approximately 6 mph (9 km/h), you interrupt
the maneuver, or the system switches off,
you must take full control of your vehicle.
Note: You are responsible for controlling
your vehicle and making sure the path is
clear prior to pulling into traffic.
Troubleshooting Possible Cause
Symptom
You may have switched the traction control off.
The system does not search for a parking space.
The transmission is in reverse (R). Your vehicle must be moving forward to be able to
detect a parking space.
The sensors may be blocked. For example, snow, ice or dirt buildup. Blocked sensors
can affect how the system functions.
The system does not offer a parking space.
There is not enough room in the parking space for your vehicle to safely\
park.
There is not enough space for the parking maneuver on the opposite side \
of the parking
space.
226
Nautilus (CD9) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 201907, First-Printing Parking AidsE188012

Possible Cause
Symptom
The parking space is more than 5 ft (1.5 m) or less than 2 ft (0.5 m) away.
The vehicle speed is greater than 22 mph (35 km/h) for parallel parkin\
g or greater than
19 mph (30 km/h)
for perpendicular parking.
You recently disconnected or replaced the battery. After you reconnect the battery you
must drive your vehicle on a straight road for a short period of time.
Your vehicle is rolling in the opposite direction of the current transmis\
sion position. For
example, rolling forward when in reverse (R).
The system does not correctly position your vehicle
in a parking space.
An irregular curb along the parking space prevents the system from corre\
ctly aligning
your vehicle.
Vehicles or objects bordering the space may not be correctly parked.
Your vehicle stopped too far past the parking space.
The tires may not be correctly installed or maintained. For example, not inflated correctly,
improper size, or of different sizes.
A repair or alteration changes the detection capabilities.
227
Nautilus (CD9) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 201907, First-Printing Parking Aids

Possible Cause
Symptom
A parked vehicle has a high attachment. For example, a salt sprayer, snowplow or moving
truck bed.
The parking space length or position of parked objects changes after your vehicle passes
the space.
The temperature around your vehicle quickly changes. For example, driving from a
heated garage into the cold, or after leaving a car wash.
REAR VIEW CAMERA WARNING: 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. WARNING:
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. WARNING:
Reverse your vehicle
slowly. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death. WARNING:
Use caution when the
rear cargo door is ajar. If the rear cargo
door is ajar, the camera will be out of
position and the video image may be
incorrect. All guidelines disappear when
the rear cargo door is ajar. Failure to follow
this instruction could result in personal
injury. WARNING: Use caution when turning
camera features on or off when the
transmission is not in park (P). 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.
228

The camera is on the rear cargo door.
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).
The system uses three types of guidelines
to help you see what is behind your vehicle:
•
Active guidelines: Show the intended
path of your vehicle when 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 transmission is in reverse (R) and
the rear cargo door is open, no rear view
camera features will display.
Note: When towing, the camera only sees
what you are towing. This might not provide
adequate coverage as it usually provides in
normal operation and some objects might
not be seen. In some vehicles, the
guidelines may disappear when you connect
the trailer tow connector. The camera may not operate correctly under
the following conditions:
•
Nighttime or dark areas if one or both
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.
Camera System Settings
You can access the rear view camera system
settings through the display screen. See
General Information (page 116).
Camera Guidelines
Note: Active guidelines are only available
when the transmission is in reverse (R).
