Detection Zones
The detection area is on the left-hand side
and right-hand side of the rear bumper area.
Note:
Some vehicles may have the ability to
detect the kicking motion from under the
trailer hitch.
Note: Allow the power system to open the
liftgate. Manually pushing or pulling the
liftgate may activate the system’ s obstacle
detection feature and stop the power
operation or reverse its direction, replicate
a strut failure, or damage mechanical
components. Note:
Any physical actions that mimic a
kicking motion such as splashing water,
trailer chains or vacuum hoses may cause
the hands-free liftgate to activate. Switch the
power liftgate off through your vehicle
settings or keep the passive key away from
the rear bumper detection area.
SETTING THE LIFTGATE OPENING
HEIGHT
1. Open the liftgate.
2. Stop the liftgate movement by pressing the control button on the liftgate when it
reaches the desired height.
Note: Once the liftgate stops moving, you
can manually move it to the desired height.
3. Press and hold the control button on the
liftgate until a tone sounds, indicating
programming is complete.
Note: You can only use the liftgate control
button to program the height.
Note: You cannot program the height if the
liftgate position is too low. 4. The power liftgate now opens at the
programmed height. To change the
programmed height, repeat the steps.
Note: You can fully open the liftgate by
manually pushing it upward to the maximum
open position if it opens in a lower position.
Note: The system recalls the new
programmed height until you reprogram it,
even if you disconnect the battery.
CLOSING THE LIFTGATE
CLOSING THE LIFTGATE FROM INSIDE
YOUR VEHICLE WARNING: Make sure all persons
are clear of the power liftgate area before
using the power liftgate control. With the transmission in park (P),
press the button on the instrument
panel.
100
2022 Navigator (TB9) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202109, First-Printing LiftgateE253799 E138633
Note:
Make sure the area behind your
vehicle is free from obstruction and that
there is enough room for you to operate the
liftgate. Objects too close to your vehicle,
for example a wall, garage door or another
vehicle may come into contact with the
moving liftgate. This could damage the
liftgate and its components.
Note: Make sure that you fully close the
liftgate to prevent cargo from falling out.
CLOSING THE HANDS-FREE LIFTGATE
(If Equipped)
Make sure you have the remote control
within 3 ft (1 m) of the liftgate.
1. Stand behind your vehicle, and face the liftgate.
2. Move your foot, in a single-kick motion, without pausing, under and away from
the rear bumper detection area. 3. The liftgate closes.
Avoid the following actions when using the
hands-free opening feature:
•
Making physical contact with the bumper.
• Holding your foot under the bumper.
• Sweeping your foot from side to side, or
kicking at an odd angle. Detection Zones
The detection area is on the left-hand side
and right-hand side of the rear bumper area.
Note:
Some vehicles may have the ability to
detect the kicking motion from under the
trailer hitch.
Note: Allow the power system to close the
liftgate. Manually pushing the liftgate may
activate the system’ s obstacle detection
feature and stop the power operation or
reverse its direction, replicate a strut failure,
or damage mechanical components.

PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
WHAT IS THE PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT
SYSTEM
The passive anti-theft system prevents
someone from starting the vehicle with an
incorrectly coded key.
Note:
Do not leave a duplicate coded key
in your vehicle. Always take the keys and
lock all the doors when leaving your vehicle.
HOW DOES THE PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT
SYSTEM WORK
The passive anti-theft system arms when you
switch the ignition off.
It disarms when the ignition is switched on
with a correctly coded key.
Note: The system is not compatible with
non-Ford aftermarket remote start systems.
Note: Do not leave a duplicate coded key
in your vehicle. Always take the keys and
lock all doors when leaving your vehicle. ANTI-THEFT ALARM SYSTEM
WHAT IS THE ANTI-THEFT ALARM
SYSTEM
The Anti-Theft Alarm System warns you of
an unauthorized entry to your vehicle.
HOW DOES THE ANTI-THEFT ALARM
SYSTEM WORK
When armed, the anti-theft alarm is triggered
in any of the following ways:
•
If someone opens a door, the tailgate or
the hood without a correctly coded key
or remote control.
• If you turn the power on without a
correctly coded key.
• If the interior sensors detect movement
inside your vehicle.
• If the inclination sensors detect an
attempt to raise your vehicle. •
If someone disconnects the vehicle
battery or the battery backup alarm.
• If someone disconnects the trailer. See
Connecting a Trailer (page 345).
Any further attempts to carry out one of the
above, sounds the alarm again.
If the anti-theft alarm is triggered, the alarm
horn sounds for 30 seconds and the turn
signals flash for five minutes.
WHAT IS THE PERIMETER ALARM
The perimeter alarm is designed to detect
unauthorized access to your vehicle.
WHAT ARE THE INTERIOR SENSORS
The interior sensors are designed to detect
any movement inside your vehicle.
The interior sensors are in the overhead
console.
Note: Do not cover the interior sensors.

FUEL QUALITY
SELECTING THE CORRECT FUEL
Your vehicle operates on regular unleaded
gasoline with a minimum pump (R+M)/2
octane rating of 87.
Some fuel stations, particularly those in high
altitude areas, offer fuels posted as regular
unleaded gasoline with an octane rating
below 87. The use of these fuels could result
in engine damage that will not be covered
by the vehicle Warranty. For best overall vehicle and engine
performance, premium fuel with an octane
rating of 91 or higher is recommended. The
performance gained by using premium fuel
is most noticeable in hot weather as well as
other conditions, for example when towing
a trailer. See Towing a Trailer (page 349).
Do not be concerned if the engine
sometimes knocks lightly. However, if the
engine knocks heavily while using fuel with
the recommended octane rating, contact an
authorized dealer to prevent any engine
damage.
We recommend Top Tier detergent
gasolines, where available to help minimize
engine deposits and maintain optimal vehicle
and engine performance.
For additional information, visit
www . toptiergas. com .
Note: Use of any fuel for which the vehicle
was not designed can impair the emission
control system, cause loss of vehicle
performance, and cause damage to the
engine which may not be covered by the
vehicle Warranty. Do not use:
•
Diesel fuel.
• Fuels containing kerosene or paraffin.
• Fuel containing more than 15% ethanol
or E85 fuel.
• Fuels containing methanol.
• Fuels containing metallic-based additives,
including manganese-based compounds.
• Fuels containing the octane booster
additive, methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl (MMT).
• Leaded fuel, using leaded fuel is
prohibited by law.
The use of fuels with metallic compounds
such as methylcyclopentadienyl manganese
tricarbonyl, which is a manganese-based fuel
additive, will impair engine performance and
affect the emission control system.
LOCATING THE FUEL FILLER
FUNNEL
The fuel filler funnel is under the luggage
compartment floor covering.

WHAT IS THE ELECTRONIC
LIMITED-SLIP DIFFERENTIAL
The electronic limited-slip differential system
directs torque, enabling the vehicle to drive
over terrain and road conditions that a
conventional axle cannot. The system is
active at all times and requires no input from
the driver.
Note:
If your vehicle is not at optimal
operating conditions or a system fault is
present, a warning may display in the
instrument cluster. Depending on the
warning, you may need to service your
vehicle. Operating the Electronic Limited-Slip
Differential with a Spare or Mismatched
Tires
If your vehicle has an electronic limited-slip
differential, do not use a spare tire of a
different size than the tire provided. If you
have a spare tire installed, a message may
appear indicating the system has disabled
automatically or reduced function to prevent
system overheat and damage. We
recommend you reinstall the repaired or
replaced spare tire as soon as possible.
When you replace the spare tire, the system
resumes normal operation on the next key
cycle.
Trailer Towing
The electronic limited-slip differential
enhances vehicle stability during trailer tow
operation. During high demand trailering
events, such as steep slopes, high speeds
or with a spare tire, the system may provide
a warning in the instrument cluster and
reduce function or enter a temporarily
disabled state. To resume normal function,
stop the vehicle in a safe location and allow
the unit to adequately cool. Once the system
reaches normal operating temperatures,
system function restores and the electronic
limited-slip differential restored message
displays.
