indicator light illuminates and the vehicle
image does not appear in the information
display.
The system resumes operation when you
release the accelerator pedal. The vehicle
speed decreases to the set speed, or a lower
speed if following a slower vehicle.

Action
Cause
Do not use the system in these conditions because it may not detect
any vehicles ahead.
Water, snow or ice on the surface of the road may interfere with the
radar signals.
Wait a short 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, it is possible to get a blockage warning with no actual block. A false\
blocked condition either self
clears, or clears after you restart your vehicle.
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. The cruise control indicator light
replaces the adaptive cruise
control indicator light if you select
normal cruise control. The gap setting does
not display, and the system does not respond
to lead vehicles. Automatic braking remains
active to maintain set speed. You can change from adaptive cruise control
to normal cruise control through the
information display.

System consistently shows Stop Now Max
trailer angle reached warning:
•
The system uses your measurements to
determine sticker position and establish
system limits. Accurate sticker placement
and trailer measurements will provide the
best system performance. If you are
consistently receiving this warning it is
likely there is an issue with sticker
placement or the entered measurements.
Make sure that the sticker is placed
correctly based on steps 3 and the
measurements were made correctly
according to Step 4. The troubleshooting
guide for trailer measurements can also
be reviewed for help in making
measurements.
• To change sticker location or change
trailer measurements, go into the Towing
menu, select trailer options, select
change trailer setting and then select the
change sticker option. •
If the sticker location needs to be
changed, the previous sticker must be
removed and a new sticker needs to be
placed on the trailer. ONLY ONE
STICKER SHOULD BE PLACED ON THE
TRAILER FOR PROPER SYSTEM
FUNCTION.
• Disregard the prompt to remove this
sticker and continue to the next step if
you only plan to update the
measurements for the current sticker
location.
System consistently shows Stop now take
control of steering warning:
• The system displays this warning when
it can no longer steer the vehicle and you
must take over steering. There are four
reasons why this warning displays and
additional information regarding the
reason for the warning is available on the
center display.
• The steering wheel is touched while the
system is controlling it. Avoid touching
the wheel during system operation. •
The maximum speed for feature
operation is exceeded. System
performance is optimized at slower
speeds. Backup slowly.
• The sticker was lost by the camera
system. Once your vehicle is stopped
additional warnings will indicate the
sticker was lost. Refer to sticker lost
trouble shooting tips.
• An internal condition for system
operation was not met which requires
your vehicle return to manual control of
the steering.
Note: The system is designed to be used
with the same trailer connection every time
the trailer is chosen from the selection menu.
Using a different drawbar or a different pin
hole (on drawbars with more than one) when
connecting the drawbar to your vehicle
affects the trailer measurements. Take the
measurements again and update if required.

Points to Remember
Note:
Do not attempt removal of the trailer
brake controller without consulting the
Workshop Manual. Damage to the unit may
result.
• Adjust gain setting before using the
trailer brake controller for the first time.
• Adjust gain setting, using the procedure
above, whenever road, weather and
trailer or vehicle loading conditions
change from when the gain was initially
set.
• Only use the manual control lever for
proper adjustment of the gain during
trailer setup. Misuse, such as application
during trailer sway, could cause instability
of trailer or tow vehicle.
• Avoid towing in adverse weather
conditions. The trailer brake controller
does not provide anti-lock control of the
trailer wheels. Trailer wheels can lock up
on slippery surfaces, resulting in reduced
stability of trailer and tow vehicle. •
The trailer brake controller is equipped
with a feature that reduces output at
vehicle speeds below 11 mph (18 km/h)
so trailer and vehicle braking is not jerky
or harsh. This feature is only available
when applying the brakes using your
vehicle's brake pedal, not the controller.
• The controller interacts with the brake
control system and powertrain control
system of your vehicle to provide the
best performance on different road
conditions.
• Your vehicle's brake system and the
trailer brake system work independently
of each other. Changing the gain setting
on the controller does not affect the
operation of your vehicle's brakes
whether you attach a trailer or not. •
When you switch the engine off, the
controller output is disabled and the
display and module shut down. The
controller module and display turn on
when you switch the ignition on.
• The trailer brake controller is only a
factory-installed or dealer-installed item.
Lincoln is not responsible for warranty or
performance of the controller due to
misuse or customer installation.
Trailer Lamps WARNING: Never connect any trailer
lamp wiring to the vehicle's tail lamp wiring;
this may damage the electrical system
resulting in fire. Contact your authorized
dealer as soon as possible for assistance
in proper trailer tow wiring installation.
Additional electrical equipment may be
required.
Trailer lamps are required on most towed
vehicles. Make sure all running lights, brake
lights, turn signals and hazard lights are
working.
