WARNING: Do not use the systemif any changes or modifications to thesteering wheel have been made. Anychanges or modifications to the steeringwheel could affect the functionality orperformance of the system. Failure tofollow this instruction could result in theloss of control of your vehicle, personalinjury or death.
Adaptive cruise control precautions applyto lane centering unless stated otherwiseor contradicted by a lane centeringprecaution. See Adaptive Cruise ControlPrecautions (page 279).
LANE CENTERINGREQUIREMENTS
You must keep your hands on the steeringwheel at all times.
Lane centering only activates when all ofthe following occur:
•Adaptive cruise control with lanecentering is enabled in your informationand entertainment screen. SeeSwitching the Lane Keeping SystemOn and Off (page 310).
•You have adaptive cruise control withstop and go enabled and set.
•The steering sensor detects your handson the steering wheel.
•The system detects both lane markingswhen driving on a straight road.
•Your vehicle is initially centered in thelane between two visible line markings.
Note:If the system does not detect validlane line markings, the system will remainin standby until valid line markings areavailable.
LANE CENTERING LIMITATIONS
Adaptive cruise control limitations applyto lane centering unless stated otherwiseor contradicted by a lane centeringlimitation. See Adaptive Cruise ControlLimitations (page 280).
Lane centering may not correctly operatein any of the following conditions:
•The lane width is too narrow or wide.
•The curve in the road is too small.
•The system does not detect theminimum required lane markings orwhen lanes merge or split.
•When the required steering effort tomaintain lane center exceeds the lanecentering system limit.
•When driving in areas that are underconstruction or when road work is inprogress.
•If the front windshield camera and/orthe front radar are blocked.
•When using a spare tire.
•Inclement weather conditionsincluding, but not limited to, high wind,heavy rain, and fog.
•Driving into direct sunlight.
•When modification to the steeringsystem has been made, includingalterations to the steering wheel.
•When towing a trailer.
See Lane Keeping System Precautions(page 309).
Note:The system steering assistance islimited and may not have sufficient effortfor all driving situations and/or conditions,such as driving through tight curves ordriving through curves at high speeds.
Note:In exceptional conditions, the systemmay deviate from the lane center.

LANE CENTERING AUTOMATICCANCELLATION
When an external condition cancels thesystem, and your hands are on the steeringwheel, a tone sounds and a messageappears in the instrument cluster display.
When an external condition cancels thesystem, and your hands are not on thesteering wheel, the system immediatelyalerts you to take control of the vehicle. Ifthis alert is ignored, the system slows thevehicle while maintaining steeringassistance when lane markings areavailable. When no lane markings areavailable, the vehicle comes to a stop.
If your vehicle starts to slowdown after system cancellation,you must take full control of thevehicle. To re-enable adaptive cruisecontrol with lane centering aftercancellation, press and release the resumebutton.
Automatic cancellation can also occur if:
•The lane becomes too wide or narrow.
•The system cannot detect valid lanemarkings.
•Lane markings cross over one another.
•The curve of the road is too sharp.
Note:If your vehicle slows down due to yourinactivity twice within a key cycle, thesystem disables. To reset the system, whenthe vehicle is stationary, return the gearselector to park (P) and turn the vehicle off.Then, restart the vehicle with your foot onthe brake pedal.

INTELLIGENT ADAPTIVE
CRUISE CONTROL
HOW DOES INTELLIGENTADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROLWORK
Intelligent adaptive cruise controlcombines speed sign recognition andnavigation map data with adaptive cruisecontrol to adjust the cruise set speed tothe speed limit detected by the speed signrecognition system. As the system detectsnew speed signs, the set speed updates.

2023 Expedition (TB8) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202207, DOMAdaptive Cruise Control (If Equipped)E308130 E297977

There are limitations that affect theaccuracy of the speed sign recognitionsystem and its ability to determine thecurrent speed limit. The intelligentadaptive cruise control system and itsability to determine the current speed limitshares these limitations. See Speed SignRecognition (page 341).
Note:The adaptive cruise control gapsetting operates normally when the featureis enabled.

You have a blocked radar because of poor radar visibility dueto inclement weather or ice, mud, or water in front of the radar.You can typically clean the sensor to resolve this.
Adaptive Cruise NotAvailable SensorBlocked See ManualDue to the nature of radar technology, it is possible to get ablockage warning with no actual block. This happens, forexample, when driving in sparse rural or desert environments.A false blocked condition either self clears, or clears after yourestart your vehicle.

WHAT IS BLUECRUISE
BlueCruise keeps your vehicle centered inthe lane and offers a hands-free drivingmode in certain situations when usingadaptive cruise control.
HOW DOES BLUECRUISE
WORK
BlueCruise uses cameras to monitor yourvehicle position within a lane and appliessteering support to keep your vehiclecentered in the lane.
Using the cameras and locationinformation, BlueCruise allows you toremove your hands from the steering wheeland offers a hands-free driving mode incertain areas.
When active, BlueCruise uses a driverfacing camera and infrared lighting tomonitor your eyes and head position todetect if you are distracted. If the systemdetermines you are distracted, it alerts youto return your eyes to the road.
