Contact an authorized dealer to have the radar checked for propercoverage and operation.
Radar is out of alignment due to a front-end impact.
Note: Proper system operation requires a
clear view of the road by the camera. Have
any windshield damage in the camera's field
of view repaired. Note:
If something hits the front end of your
vehicle or damage occurs, the radar sensing
zone may change. This could cause missed
or false vehicle detections. Contact an
authorized dealer to have the radar checked
for proper coverage and operation.

Note:
If your vehicle detects excessive heat
at the camera or a potential misalignment
condition, a message may display in the
information display indicating temporary
sensor unavailability. When operational
conditions are correct, the message
deactivates. For example, when the ambient
temperature around the sensor decreases
or the sensor automatically recalibrates
successfully.
DRIVE MODE CONTROL
Lincoln Drive Modes
Lincoln Drive Modes deliver a driving
experience through a suite of sophisticated
electronic vehicle systems. These systems
optimize steering, handling and powertrain
response. You can control performance
settings for multiple systems from this single
location.
Changing the drive mode automatically
changes the functionality of the following
systems: •
Electronically power-assisted steering
system adjusts steering effort and feel
based on the mode you select. See
Steering (page 297).
• Electronic stability control and traction
control maintain your vehicle control in
adverse conditions or high performance
driving. See Stability Control (page 248).
• Electronic throttle control enhances the
powertrain response to your inputs.
• Transmission controls optimize with shift
schedules tuned to each mode.
• Driveline settings optimize for each
mode.
Using the System
The system automatically tailors your vehicle
configuration for each mode you select. To change the drive mode setting, use the
drive mode selector on the center console.
Note:
Mode changes are not available when
the vehicle ignition is off or when the engine
is not running.
Note: Not all settings may be available.

•
NORMAL – For everyday driving. This
mode is a perfect balance of excitement,
comfort and convenience.
• EXCITE – For aggressive on-road driving.
This mode increases throttle response,
provides a sportier steering feel, along
with quicker shifting. The suspension
stiffens, with an emphasis on handling
and control. The transmission also holds
gears longer, helping your vehicle
accelerate faster when shifting gears.
• CONSERVE
– Enables efficient and
responsible driving. It helps deliver
maximum fuel efficiency and increases
driving range.
• NORMAL 4A
– For general on-road
driving. Use this mode on normal firm
surfaces such as dry or wet pavement
and hard packed dirt or gravel roads.
Delivers power to all four wheels, as
required. •
SLIPPERY
– For less than ideal road
conditions, such as snow or ice covered
roads. Slippery mode inspires confidence
without taking away from driving
pleasure. Slippery mode lowers throttle
response and optimizes shifting for
slippery surfaces.
• DEEP CONDITIONS
– Used for crossing
terrain that has deformable deep, rutted
surfaces such as mud, deep snow or
deep sand. Do not use on dry, hard
surfaced roads.
• SLOW CLIMB
– Used when you need
extra power, such as when climbing
steep grades, going through deep sand
or pulling a boat out of a launch ramp.
Do not use on dry, hard surfaced roads.
Slow Climb mode puts you in 4x4 Low
drive line settings.
Note: Slow Climb is only available on
vehicles with 4x4 and a two-speed transfer
case. Note:
The system has diagnostic checks that
continuously monitor the system for proper
operation. Certain drive modes are not
available based on gear shifter position. If
a mode is unavailable due to a system fault
or change in gear shifter position, the mode
defaults to
NORMAL.

for the net attachment. 3.
Attach the bottom of the net to the lower
anchor point. 4. Repeat this procedure on the other side
of your vehicle. ROOF RACKS AND LOAD
CARRIERS WARNING: When loading the roof
racks, we recommend you evenly distribute
the load, as well as maintain a low center
of gravity. Loaded vehicles, with higher
centers of gravity, may handle differently
than unloaded vehicles. Take extra
precautions, such as slower speeds and
increased stopping distance, when driving
a heavily loaded vehicle.
For correct roof rack system function, you
must place loads directly on crossbars affixed
to the roof rack side rails. When using the
roof rack system, we recommend using our
genuine accessory crossbars designed
specifically for your vehicle.
Make sure that you securely fasten the load.
Check the tightness of the load before
driving and at each fuel stop.
Note: Never place loads directly on the roof
panel. The roof panel is not designed to
directly carry a load.
