2020 LINCOLN NAUTILUS sport mode

7.
Try to pull the belt out of the retractor to
make sure the retractor is in the
automatic locking mode. You should not
be able to pull more belt out. If the
retractor did not lock, unbuckle the belt
and repeat Steps 5 and 6. 8. Remove remaining slack from the belt.
Force the seat down with extra weight,
for example, by pressing down or
kneeling on the child restraint while
pulling up on the shoulder belt in order
to force slack from the belt. This is
necessary to remove the remaining slack
that exists once you add the extra weight of the child to the child restraint. It also
helps to achieve the proper snugness of
the child restraint to your vehicle.
Sometimes, a slight lean toward the
buckle will provide extra help to remove
remaining slack from the belt.
9. If the child restraint has a tether strap, attach it. 10. Before placing the child in the seat,
forcibly move the seat forward and back
to make sure the seat is securely held
in place. To check this, grab the seat at
the belt path and attempt to move it
side to side and forward and back.
There should be no more than 1 in
(2.5 cm) of movement for proper
installation.
We recommend checking with a NHTSA
Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician
to make certain the child restraint is properly
installed. In Canada, check with Transport
Canada for referral to a Child Car Seat Clinic.
Using Lower Anchors and Tethers for
CHildren (LATCH) WARNING:
Do not attach two child
safety restraints to the same anchor. In a
crash, one anchor may not be strong
enough to hold two child safety restraint
attachments and may break, causing
serious injury or death.

DRIVE CONTROL
LINCOLN DRIVE CONTROL
The system delivers a driving experience
through a suite of sophisticated electronic
vehicle systems. These systems continuously
monitor your driving inputs and the road
conditions to optimize ride comfort, steering,
handling, powertrain response and sound.
You can preset your preferences for these
systems within the information display. The
system responds to your preferences based
on what gear position you select. This
provides a single location to control multiple
systems performance settings.
Lincoln Drive Control consists of the
following systems:
•
Continuously controlled damping
dynamically adjusts the shock absorbers
stiffness in real time to match the road
surface and driver inputs. This system
continuously monitors your vehicle ’s
motion, suspension position, load, speed,
road conditions and steering to adjust
the suspension damping for optimal
vehicle control.
• Electronically power-assisted steering
adjusts steering effort and feel based on
your vehicle speed and your inputs.
• Adaptive steering optimizes your
vehicle's steering response based on
your steering wheel input, changes in
vehicle speed and other conditions.
• Active noise control utilizes your vehicle
electronics to enhance the acoustic
experience. •
Electronic stability control and traction
control maintain your vehicle control in
adverse conditions or high performance
driving.
• Electronic throttle control enhances the
powertrain response to your inputs.
Using Lincoln Drive Control
You can configure which of the Drive Control
modes are active when your vehicle is in
drive (D) or in sport (S). The configuration
remains active until modified from the main
menu on the information display.

These systems have a range of modes which
you can choose from to customize your ideal
driving experience:
•
Comfort – Provides a more relaxed
driving experience, maximizing comfort.
Your steering effort decreases and the
suspension movement is more fluid.
Comfort mode is ideal when you desire
enhanced traveling comfort.
• Normal
– Delivers a balanced
combination of comfortable, controlled
ride and confident handling. This mode
provides an engaging driving experience
and a direct connection to the road
without sacrificing any of the composure
demanded from a luxury vehicle.
• Sport
– Provides a sportier driving
experience. The suspension stiffens, with
an emphasis on handling and control.
The engine responds more directly to
your inputs and takes on a more powerful
tone. This mode is ideal for use during
more spirited driving.
You can change the drive control settings in
the information display.
See General
Information (page 116). Note:
Not all settings may be available.
Note: Lincoln Drive Control has diagnostic
checks that continuously monitor the system
to ensure proper operation. Certain types of
system errors gray out the mode selections
within the information display, preventing
you from changing states when the gear
position is changed. Other types of errors
produce a temporary message in the
information display. If either condition
persists for multiple key cycles, see an
authorized dealer.
EcoCoach
The system is designed to monitor certain
driving characteristics to help you drive more
efficiently.
See Economical Driving (page
285).
Note: The efficiency levels do not result in a
defined fuel consumption figure.
See Fuel
Consumption (page 187).
Note: The system only indicates the
efficiency level for the current trip. The
system resets each time you switch the
ignition on. EcoCoach System Display
You can view the instantaneous efficiency
level or the trip summary in the information
display.
Instantaneous Efficiency Level
The display ring increases as the
instantaneous efficiency level increases and
illuminates when it reaches maximum
efficiency. The level continuously updates
to indicate the efficiency level for the current
trip.
Use the information display controls to view
the instantaneous efficiency level.
See
General Information (page 116).
Trip Summary
The calculated trip summary is shown as four
colored bars. The bars travel from left to right
as the calculated efficiency levels increase.
The bars indicate the average efficiency level
for acceleration, deceleration, speed and
gear shifting during the total distance
traveled by your vehicle for the current trip.
