system still requires the driver to use it in
conjunction with looking out of the
windows, and checking the interior and
exterior mirrors for maximum coverage. WARNING:
Objects that are close to
either corner of the bumper or under the
bumper, might not be seen on the screen
due to the limited coverage of the camera
system. WARNING:
Use caution when turning
camera features on or off when the
transmission is not in park (P). Make sure
your vehicle is not moving.
Note: The 360 degree camera system turns
off when your vehicle is in motion at low
speed, except when in reverse (R).
The 360 degree camera system consists of
front, side and rear cameras. The system:
• Allows you to see what is directly in front
or behind your vehicle.
• Provides cross traffic view in front and
behind your vehicle.
• Allows you to see a top-down view of the
area outside your vehicle, including the
blind spots.
• Provides visibility around your vehicle in
parking maneuvers such as:
•Centering in a parking space.
• Obstacles near vehicle.
• Parallel parking. Camera Views The front camera enable button is
near the display screen and turns
on the front camera when your
vehicle is not in reverse (R).

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.

Before Towing a Trailer
Practice turning, stopping and backing up to
get the feel of your vehicle-trailer
combination before starting on a trip. When
turning, make wider turns so the trailer
wheels clear curbs and other obstacles.
When Towing a Trailer
•
Do not drive faster than 70 mph
(113 km/h) during the first 500 mi
(800 km).
• Do not make full-throttle starts.
• Check your hitch, electrical connections
and trailer wheel lug nuts thoroughly after
you have traveled
50 mi (80 km).
• When stopped in congested or heavy
traffic during hot weather, place the
transmission in park (P) to aid engine and
transmission cooling and to help A/C
performance.
• Turn off the speed control when carrying
heavy loads or in hilly terrain. The speed
control may turn off automatically when
you are towing on long, steep grades. •
Shift to a lower gear when driving down
a long or steep hill. Do not apply the
brakes continuously, as they may
overheat and become less effective.
• If your transmission has a Grade Assist
or Tow/Haul feature, use this feature
when towing. This provides engine
braking and helps eliminate excessive
transmission shifting for optimum fuel
economy and transmission cooling.
• If your vehicle has AdvanceTrac with
RSC, this system may turn on during
typical cornering maneuvers with a
heavily loaded trailer. This is normal.
Turning the corner at a slower speed
while towing may reduce this tendency.
• If your vehicle has Adaptive suspension,
you can select NORMAL or SPORT drive
control modes for better experience
when towing a trailer.
See Information
Displays (page 134). •
If you are towing a trailer frequently in
hot weather, hilly conditions, at the gross
combined weight rating (or any
combination of these factors), consider
refilling your rear axle with synthetic gear
lubricant (if the axle is not already filled
with it).
See Capacities and
Specifications (page 438).
• Allow more distance for stopping with a
trailer attached. Anticipate stops and
brake gradually.
• Avoid parking on a grade. However, if
you must park on a grade:
1. Turn the steering wheel to point your vehicle tires away from traffic flow.
2. Set your vehicle parking brake.
3. Place the transmission in park (P).
4. Place wheel chocks in the front and back
of the trailer wheels.
Note: Chocks are not included with your
vehicle.
