WHAT IS 911 ASSIST
911 Assist is a SYNC system feature that can
call for help if you are in an accident. If a
crash deploys an airbag, excluding knee
airbags and rear inflatable seatbelts [if
equipped], or activates the fuel pump
shut-off, your SYNC-equipped vehicle may
be able to contact emergency services by
dialing 911 through a paired and connected
Bluetooth enabled phone. You can learn
more about the 911 Assist feature, by visiting:
Website
www.owner.lincoln.com
www.syncmyride.ca
www.syncmaroute.ca
Not all crashes will deploy an airbag or
activate the fuel pump shut-off, the triggers
for 911 Assist. If a connected cell phone
sustains damage or loses its connection to
SYNC during a crash, SYNC will search for
and try to connect to a previously paired cell
phone. SYNC will then attempt to call the
emergency services. Before making the call:
•
SYNC provides a short window of time,
about 10 seconds, to cancel the call. If
you fail to cancel the call, SYNC attempts
to dial 911.
• SYNC says the following, or a similar
message: SYNC will attempt to call 911,
to cancel the call, press Cancel on your
screen or press and hold the phone
button on your steering wheel.
If you do not cancel the call, and SYNC
makes a successful call, a pre-recorded
message plays for the 911 operator, and then
the occupant(s) in your vehicle is able to talk
with the operator. Be prepared to
immediately provide your name, phone
number and location, because not all 911
systems are capable of receiving this
information electronically.
During an emergency call, the system
transmits vehicle data to the emergency
service. See Data Privacy (page 16). EMERGENCY CALL
REQUIREMENTS WARNING: Do not wait for 911 Assist
to make an emergency call if you can do
it yourself. Dial emergency services
immediately to avoid delayed response
time which could increase the risk of
serious injury or death after a crash. If you
do not hear 911 Assist within five seconds
of the crash, the system or phone may be
damaged or non-functional. WARNING: Always place your phone
in a secure location in your vehicle so it
does not become a projectile or get
damaged in a crash. Failure to do so may
cause serious injury to someone or
damage the phone which could prevent
911 Assist from working properly. WARNING: Unless the 911 Assist
setting is set on before a crash, the system
will not dial for help which could delay
response time, potentially increasing the
risk of serious injury or death after a crash.

Low Tire Pressure Warning
Illuminates when your tire pressure
is low. If the lamp remains on with
the engine running or when
driving, check your tire pressure as soon as
possible.
It also illuminates momentarily when you
switch the ignition on to confirm the lamp is
functional. If it does not illuminate when you
switch the ignition on, or begins to flash at
any time, have the system checked by an
authorized dealer.
Low Washer Fluid Illuminates when the windshield
washer fluid is low.
Powertrain Fault Illuminates when the system
detects a powertrain or an 4WD
fault. Contact an authorized dealer
as soon as possible. Ready to Drive (If Equipped) Illuminates when you have
switched on your vehicle and it is
ready to drive. A corresponding
message may appear stating ready to drive.
Service Engine Soon It illuminates when you switch the
ignition on prior to engine start to
check the bulb and to indicate
whether your vehicle is ready for Inspection
and Maintenance (I/M) testing.
Normally, it illuminates until the engine is
cranked and automatically turns off if no
system errors are present. However, if after
15 seconds it flashes eight times, this
indicates that your vehicle is not ready for
Inspection and Maintenance (I/M) testing.
See
Catalytic Converter (page 235).
If it illuminates when the engine is running
this indicates a system error. The On Board
Diagnostics system has detected an error in
the vehicle emission control system. If it flashes, engine misfire may be occurring.
Continuing to drive your vehicle may cause
reduced power or the engine to stop. Failure
to respond to the warning lamp may cause
component damage not covered by the
vehicle Warranty. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
Stability Control
It flashes when the system is
active. If it remains illuminated or
does not illuminate when you
switch the ignition on, this indicates a system
error. During a system error the system
switches off. Have the system checked by
an authorized dealer immediately.
See
Using Stability Control (page 269).
Stability Control Off Illuminates when you switch the
system off. It goes out when you
switch the system back on or when
you switch the ignition off.
See Using
Stability Control (page 269).

When you are decelerating with either your
foot off the accelerator pedal or on the brake
pedal you will see a green or white solid bar
indicating the power being used to slow
down the vehicle. You may also see a green
rectangular box which shows the amount of
power that can be recaptured by the
regenerative braking system and returned
to the high voltage battery.
•
When your power level is completely
within the box the color of the bar will be
all green. This means that the
regenerative braking system is being
used to efficiently slow the vehicle down
and return the maximum percentage of
energy to the high voltage battery.
• When your power level is outside of the
green box then the bar will be white. This
means that both the regenerative braking
system and conventional braking system
are being used. Electric Efficiency
This screen shows your average driving
distance per kWh of electricity used on your
hybrid vehicle. The value is calculated only
when your available electric range is being
used and the gasoline engine is off.
Distance per full charge is also shown. This
is an estimate of the electric range you would
have if you plugged in and fully charged your
vehicle right now. The higher your electric
efficiency, the higher your distance per full
charge.
Your electric efficiency is affected by your
driving style and route, climate control use,
outside temperature and other factors. Best
efficiency is achieved in mild ambient
temperatures with mild to moderate
acceleration and braking, moderate speeds
and low climate control usage.
