NORMAL
For everyday driving. This mode
is a perfect balance of
excitement, comfort and
convenience. This is the default mode after
each ignition cycle.
SAND (If Equipped) For off-road driving. Sand mode
is for off-road driving on soft, dry
sand or deep conditions. Lower
gears hold longer in sand mode to maintain
momentum in soft conditions. Sand mode
optimizes braking for off-road conditions,
allowing quick path corrections and
minimized stopping distance when on
deformable surfaces.
Note: Using sand mode on dry, hard
surfaces could produce some vibration,
driveline bind up, potential excessive tire
wear and vehicle wear.
Note: Do not use on firm, slippery surfaces,
such as paved roads covered with snow or
ice or driving on packed snow. For slippery,
firm surfaces use slippery mode.
SLIPPERY For less than ideal road
conditions such as snow or ice
covered roads. You can use this
mode for crossing terrain where loose, wet
or slippery materials covers a firm surface.
Slippery mode lowers throttle response
and optimizes shifting for slippery surfaces. SPORT
(If Equipped) For sporty driving with improved
performance handling and
response. This mode increases
throttle response and provides a sportier
steering feel. The powertrain system
provides improved gear holding, helping
your vehicle accelerate faster.
TOW/HAUL For improved transmission
operation when towing a trailer
or a heavy load. This mode
moves upshifts to higher engine speeds to
reduce the frequency of transmission
shifting. This mode also provides engine
braking in all forward gears, which slows
your vehicle and assists you in controlling
your vehicle when descending a slope. The
amount of downshift braking provided
varies based on the amount you press the
brake pedal.
The system tunes the steering and
suspension to enhance driving comfort
when towing or carrying heavy loads.

WHAT IS PRE-COLLISION
ASSIST
Pre-collision assist detects and warns of
approaching hazards in the roadway. If
your vehicle is rapidly approaching another
stationary vehicle, a vehicle traveling in the
same direction as yours, or a pedestrian
within your driving path, the system
provides multiple levels of assistance to
help avoid a collision.
HOW DOES PRE-COLLISION
ASSIST WORK
The system warns the driver of potential
hazards by providing three levels of
assistance.
If your vehicle is rapidly approaching
potential hazards, the system provides the
following levels of functionality:
1. Alert.
2. Brake Support.
3. Automatic Emergency Braking.
Alert: When active, a flashing
visual warning appears and an
audible warning tone sounds.
Brake Support
: The system is designed
to help reduce the impact speed by
preparing the brakes for rapid braking. The
system does not automatically apply the
brakes. If you press the brake pedal, the
system could apply additional braking up
to maximum braking force, even if you
lightly press the brake pedal.
Automatic Emergency Braking
: This
may activate if the system determines that
a collision is imminent. Note:
If you perceive pre-collision assist
alerts as being too frequent or disturbing,
you can reduce the alert sensitivity, although
we recommend using the highest sensitivity
setting where possible. Setting a lower
sensitivity leads to fewer and later system
warnings.
Each system has various levels of
detection capabilities. See Pre-Collision
Assist Limitations
(page 244).
PRE-COLLISION ASSIST
PRECAUTIONS WARNING: You are responsible for
controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your vehicle,
personal injury or death. WARNING:
The system does not
detect vehicles that are driving in a
different direction, cyclists or animals.
Apply the brakes when necessary. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your vehicle,
personal injury or death. WARNING:
The system does not
operate during hard acceleration or
steering. Failure to take care may lead
to a crash or personal injury. WARNING: The system may fail or
operate with reduced function during
cold and severe weather conditions.
Snow, ice, rain, spray and fog can
adversely affect the system. Keep the
front camera and radar free of snow and
ice. Failure to take care may result in the
loss of control of your vehicle, serious
personal injury or death.

WARNING: Take additional care if
your vehicle is heavily loaded or you are
towing a trailer. These conditions could
result in reduced performance of this
system. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death. WARNING:
The system cannot
help prevent all crashes. Do not rely on
this system to replace driver judgment
and the need to maintain a safe distance
and speed. WARNING:
In situations where the
vehicle camera has limited detection
capability, this may reduce system
performance. These situations include
but are not limited to direct or low
sunlight, vehicles at night without tail
lights, unconventional vehicle types,
pedestrians with complex backgrounds,
running pedestrians, partly obscured
pedestrians, or pedestrians that the
system cannot distinguish from a group.
Failure to take care may result in the loss
of control of your vehicle, serious
personal injury or death.
PRE-COLLISION ASSIST
LIMITATIONS
Pre-collision assist depends on the
detection ability of its camera and sensors.
Any obstructions or damage to these areas
can limit detection or prevent the system
from functioning.
See Locating the
Pre-Collision Assist Sensors (page 245).
The system is active at speeds above
3 mph (5 km/h)
. Note:
Brake support and automatic
emergency braking are active at speeds up
to 80 mph (130 km/h). If your vehicle has a
radar sensor included with adaptive cruise
control, then brake support and automatic
emergency braking are active up to the
maximum speed of the vehicle.
Pedestrian Detection Limitations
Pedestrian detection is active at speeds
up to
50 mph (80 km/h).
Pedestrian detection operates optimally
when detected hazards are clearly
identifiable. System performance may
reduce in situations where pedestrians are
running, partly obscured, have a complex
background, or cannot be distinguished
from a group.
SWITCHING PRE-COLLISION
ASSIST ON AND OFF
You cannot switch the system off.
Adjusting the Pre-Collision Assist
Settings
You can adjust the following settings by
using the touchscreen controls in the
pre-collision assist menu:
• Change alert and distance alert
sensitivity to one of three possible
settings.
• Switch distance indication and alert on
or off.
• If required, switch automatic
emergency braking on or off.
• If required, switch evasive steering
assist on or off.
Note: Automatic emergency braking and
evasive steering automatically turns on
every time you switch the ignition on.

2022 Maverick (CFE) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202106, First-Printing Pre-Collision Assist

After you turn the steering wheel in an
attempt to avoid a crash with the road
user, the system applies additional steering
torque to help you steer around the road
user. After you pass the road user, the
system applies steering torque when you
turn the steering wheel to steer back into
the lane. The system deactivates after you
fully pass the road user.
Note:
Road users are defined as another
stationary vehicle in the same lane or a
vehicle traveling in the same lane in the
same direction as you. See Pre-Collision
Assist Precautions (page 243).
EVASIVE STEERING ASSIST
LIMITATIONS
Evasive steering assist only activates when
all the following occur:
• Automatic emergency braking and
evasive steering assist are on.
• The system detects a road user ahead
and starts to apply the brakes.
• You significantly turn the steering
wheel to steer around a road user. Note:
Evasive steering assist does not
automatically steer around a road user. If
you do not turn the steering wheel, evasive
steering assist does not activate.
Note: Evasive steering assist does not
activate if the distance to the road user
ahead is too small and the system cannot
avoid a crash.
Note: Evasive steering does not activate
with cyclists or pedestrians.
SWITCHING EVASIVE STEERING
ASSIST ON AND OFF
To switch the system on or off, use the
instrument cluster display:
1. Select
Settings.
2. Select
Driver Assistance.
3. Select
Pre-Collision Assist.
4. Switch
Evasive steering on or off.
Note: If you switch automatic emergency
braking off, evasive steering assist turns off.
Note: Automatic emergency braking and
evasive steering assist turn on every time
you switch the ignition on.
