2021 LINCOLN AVIATOR parking sensors

Object Distance Indicator (If Equipped)
The system provides object distance
indication through the information display.
•
As the distance to the object decreases,
the indicator blocks illuminate and move
toward the vehicle icon.
• If there is no object detected, the
distance indicator blocks are gray. When you shift into reverse (R), the system
provides audible warnings and a visual
indication when detected objects are within
24 in (60 cm)
and are inside the driving path
of your vehicle. When you stop your vehicle,
the audible warnings turn off after two
seconds.
When you shift into any forward gear, the
system provides audible warnings and a
visual indication when your vehicle is moving
at a speed of approximately
5 mph (8 km/h)
or below and the system detects an object
within the detection zone. When you stop
your vehicle, the audible warnings turn off
after two seconds and the visual indication
turns off after four seconds.
When you shift into neutral (N), the system
only provides a visual indication if your
vehicle is moving at a speed of
approximately
5 mph (8 km/h) or below. For
example, your vehicle is moving on a slope,
and the system detects an object moving
toward your vehicle. When you stop your
vehicle, the visual indication turns off after
four seconds. If the system is not available, the side
distance indicator blocks do not display.

Active Park Assist Troubleshooting
Possible Cause
Symptom
The system is unable to detect a vehicle, curb or object to park next to or in-between.
The system does not correctly operate.
You may have switched 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 large accumulations of dirt.
Blocked sensors can affect how the system functions.
The system does not offer a parking space.
The sensors in the front or rear bumper could be damaged.
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.
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.
An irregular curb along the parking space prevents the system from corre\
ctly aligning
your vehicle.
The system does not correctly position your vehicle
in a parking space.

Switching the System On and Off
You can switch the blind spot information
system with trailer tow off by not selecting a
trailer the information display. See General
Information (page 134). In this case, the
system turns off as long as a trailer is
attached to your vehicle. As soon as you
disconnect the trailer, the blind spot
information system becomes active.
When you switch the system off, a warning
lamp illuminates and the alert indicators flash
twice.
Note: The system remembers the last trailer
setting when you start your vehicle.
You cannot switch off the blind spot
information system with trailer tow when
using MyKey, but you can still change the
trailer settings.

contact an authorized dealer.
CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT WARNING:
Do not use the cross
traffic alert system as a replacement for
using the interior and exterior mirrors or
looking over your shoulder before
reversing out of a parking space. The cross
traffic alert system is not a replacement for
careful driving. WARNING:
The system may not
operate properly during severe weather
conditions, for example snow, ice, heavy
rain and spray. Always drive with due care
and attention. Failure to take care may
result in a crash. The system alerts you of vehicles
approaching from the sides behind your
vehicle when you shift into reverse (R).
Using Cross Traffic Alert
The system detects vehicles that approach
at a speed between
4 mph (6 km/h) and
37 mph (60 km/h). Coverage decreases when
the sensors are partially, mostly or fully
obstructed. Slowly reversing helps increase
the coverage area and effectiveness.
The system turns on when you start the
engine and you shift into reverse (R). The
system turns off when you shift out of reverse
(R).
