temporarily unable to provide a warning
or intervention on the indicated side. This
may be because:
•
Your vehicle is under the activation
speed.
• The direction indicator is active.
• Your vehicle is in a dynamic maneuver.
• The road has no or poor lane markings
in the camera field-of-view.
• You have a blocked camera, or it is
unable to detect the lane markings due
to environmental, traffic or vehicle
conditions. For example, significant sun
angles, shadows, snow, heavy rain or
fog, following a large vehicle that is
blocking or shadowing the lane or poor
headlamp illumination. See Troubleshooting for additional
information.
Green: Indicates that the system is
available or ready to provide a warning or
intervention, on the indicated side.
Yellow or Animated Graphics: Indicate that
the system is providing or has just provided
a lane keeping aid intervention.
Red: Indicates that the system is providing
or has just provided a lane keeping alert
warning.
You can temporarily suppress the system
at any time by the following:
• Quick braking.
• Fast acceleration.
• Using the direction indicator.
• Evasive steering maneuver.
• Driving too close to the lane markings.

STEERING
Electric Power Steering WARNING: The electric power
steering system has diagnostic checks
that continuously monitor the system. If
a fault is detected, a message displays
in the information display. Stop your
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
Switch the ignition off. After at least 10
seconds, switch the ignition on and
watch the information display for a
steering system warning message. If a
steering system warning message
returns, have the system checked as
soon as possible. WARNING:
If the system detects
an error, you may not feel a difference in
the steering, however a serious condition
may exist. Have your vehicle checked as
soon as possible. Failure to do so may
result in loss of steering control.
Your vehicle has an electric power steering
system, there is no fluid reservoir, no
maintenance is required. If your vehicle loses electrical power while
you are driving, electric power steering
assistance is lost. The steering system still
operates and you can steer your vehicle
manually. Manually steering your vehicle
requires more effort.
Extreme continuous steering may increase
the effort required for you to steer your
vehicle, this increased effort prevents
overheating and permanent damage to
the steering system. You do not lose the
ability to steer your vehicle manually.
Typical steering and driving maneuvers
allow the system to cool and return to
normal operation.
Steering Tips
If the steering wanders or pulls, check for:
•
Correct tire pressures.
• Uneven tire wear.
• Loose or worn suspension
components.
• Loose or worn steering components.
• Improper vehicle alignment.
Note: A high crown in the road or high
crosswinds may also make the steering
seem to wander or pull.

Adaptive Learning (If Equipped)
The electronic power steering system
adaptive learning helps correct road
irregularities and improves overall handling
and steering feel. It communicates with
the brake system to help operate
advanced stability control and accident
avoidance systems. Additionally, whenever
the battery is disconnected or a new
battery installed, you must drive your
vehicle a short distance before the system
relearns the strategy and reactivates all
systems.
PRE-COLLISION ASSIST
(IF
EQUIPPED) WARNING:
You must remain in
your vehicle when the system turns on.
At all times, you are responsible for
controlling your vehicle, supervising the
system and intervening, if required.
Failure to take care may result in the loss
of control of your vehicle, serious
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:
Some situations and
objects prevent hazard detection. For
example low or direct sunlight, inclement
weather, unconventional vehicle types,
and pedestrians. 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 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.
Using the Pre-Collision Assist
System
The system is active at speeds above
3 mph (5 km/h) and pedestrian detection
is active at speeds up to
50 mph
(80 km/h). 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 three levels of
functionality:
1. Alert.
2. Brake support.
204
2022 Mustang (CZG) Canada/United States of America, Vehicles Built From: 27-09-2021, enUSA, Edition date: 202110, First-Printing Driving AidsE156130

3. Active braking.
Alert: When active, a flashing visual
warning and an audible warning tone
sounds.
Brake support
: The system helps 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 can apply
additional braking up to maximum braking
force, even if you lightly press the brake
pedal.
Active braking
: It activates if the system
determines that a collision is about to
occur. The system may help the driver
reduce impact damage or completely
avoid the crash.
Note: Brake support and active braking are
active at speeds up to 80 mph (130 km/h).
If your vehicle has a radar sensor with
adaptive cruise control, then brake support
and active braking are active up to the
maximum speed of your vehicle. Note:
If you perceive pre-collision assist
alerts as being too frequent or disturbing,
you can reduce the alert sensitivity, though
the manufacturer recommends using the
highest sensitivity setting. Setting lower
sensitivity would lead to fewer and later
system warnings.
Note: The system turns off when you
manually disable AdvanceTrac ™, or when
you select track mode.
Distance Indication and Alert
(If
Equipped)
Distance indication and alert provides a
graphical indication of the time gap to
other preceding vehicles traveling in the
same direction. The distance indication
and alert screen in the information display
shows an image similar to the one that
follows. If the time gap to a preceding vehicle is
small, a red visual indication displays to
the driver.
Note:
Distance indication and alert
deactivates and the images do not display
when adaptive cruise control is active.

is the maximum payload for your
vehicle as built by the assembly
plant. If you install any additional
equipment on your vehicle, you
must determine the new payload.
Subtract the weight of the
equipment from the payload listed
on the Tire and Loading label.
When towing, trailer tongue
weight or king pin weight is also
part of payload.
WARNING: The
appropriate loading capacity of
your vehicle can be limited either
by volume capacity (how much
space is available) or by payload
capacity (how much weight the
vehicle should carry). Once you
have reached the maximum
payload of your vehicle, do not
add more cargo, even if there is
space available. Overloading or
improperly loading your vehicle
can contribute to loss of vehicle
control and vehicle rollover.
