2023 LINCOLN AVIATOR display

Note:The system turns off the front video
image when your vehicle is in motion at low
speed, except when in reverse (R).
E288873
The front video camera is on the grille. It
provides a video image of the area in front
of your vehicle. It adds assistance to the
driver while driving forward at low speeds.
To use the front video camera system, place
the transmission in any gear except reverse
(R). An image displays once you press the
front camera enable button. The image on
the screen may vary according to your
vehicle's orientation or road condition.
Side Camera
E250816
The side view camera, located in the outside
mirror, provides a video image of the area
on the sides of your vehicle as part of the
front 360 + normal view and rear 360 +
normal view. It aids you while parking your
vehicle either forward or backwards.

WHAT IS CRUISE CONTROL
Cruise control lets you maintain a set speed
without keeping your foot on the accelerator
pedal.
Requirements
Use cruise control when the vehicle speed
is greater than 20 mph (30 km/h).
SWITCHING CRUISE CONTROL ON
AND OFF
WARNING: Do not use cruise control
on winding roads, in heavy traffic or when
the road surface is slippery. This could
result in loss of vehicle control, serious
injury or death.
The cruise controls are on the steering
wheel.
Switching Cruise Control On
E71340
Press the button to put the system
in standby mode.
Switching Cruise Control Off
E71340
Press the button when in standby
mode or switch the ignition off.
Note:When you switch cruise control off the
set speed clears.
SETTING THE CRUISE CONTROL
SPEED
WARNING: When you are going
downhill, your vehicle speed could
increase above the set speed. The system
does not apply the brakes.
Drive to the speed you prefer.
Press either button to set the
current speed.
Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Note:The indicator changes color in the
information display.
Changing the Set Speed
Press and release the button to
increase the set speed in small
increments.
Press and hold the button to accelerate.
Release the button when you reach your
preferred speed.
Press and release the button to
decrease the set speed in small
increments.
Press and hold the button to decelerate.
Release the button when you reach your
preferred speed.

Cruise Control

WARNING: The system only warns
of vehicles detected by the radar sensor.
In some cases there may be no warning
or a delayed warning. Apply the brakes
when necessary. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury
or death.
WARNING: The system may not
detect stationary or slow moving vehicles
below 6 mph (10 km/h).
WARNING: The system does not
detect pedestrians or objects in the road.
WARNING: The system does not
detect oncoming vehicles in the same lane.
WARNING: The system may not
operate properly if the sensor is blocked.
Keep the windshield free from obstruction.
WARNING: The sensor may
incorrectly track lane markings as other
structures or objects. This can result in a
false or missed warning.
E307893E307893
The camera is mounted on the windshield
behind the interior mirror.
E307892E307892
The radar sensor is in the lower grille.Note:You cannot see the sensor. It is behind
a fascia panel.
Note:Keep the front of your vehicle free of
dirt, metal badges or objects. Vehicle front
protectors, aftermarket lights, additional
paint or plastic coatings could also degrade
sensor performance.
A message displays if something obstructs
the camera or the sensor. When something
blocks the sensor, the system cannot detect
a vehicle ahead and does not function. See
How Does Adaptive Cruise Control With
Stop and Go Work (page 305).
The radar sensor has a limited field of view.
It may not detect vehicles at all or detect a
vehicle later than expected in some
situations. The lead vehicle image does not
illuminate if the system does not detect a
vehicle in front of you.
308
Adaptive Cruise Control (If Equipped)

Detection issues can occur:
E71621
When driving on a different line
than the vehicle in front. AB With vehicles that edge into your
lane. The system can only detect
these vehicles once they move
fully into your lane.
There may be issues with the
detection of vehicles in front when
driving into and coming out of a
bend or curve in the road. C
In these cases, the system may brake late or
unexpectedly.
If something hits the front end of your vehicle
or damage occurs, the radar-sensing zone
may change. This could cause missed or
false vehicle detection.
Optimal system performance requires a clear
view of the road by the windshield-mounted
camera.
Optimal performance may not occur if:
• The camera is blocked.
• There is poor visibility or lighting
conditions.
• There are bad weather conditions.
SWITCHING ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL ON AND OFF
The cruise controls are on the steering
wheel. See Cruise Control (page 104).

• The tires lose traction.
• You apply the parking brake.
309
Adaptive Cruise Control (If Equipped)

The system may cancel and set the parking
brake if:
• You unbuckle the seatbelt and open the
driver door after you stop your vehicle.
• Your vehicle is at a stop continuously for
more than three minutes.
The system may turn off or prevent activating
when requested if:
• The vehicle has a blocked sensor.
• The brake temperature is too high.
• There is a failure in the system or a
related system.
SETTING THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE

from a Complete Stop
Press and release either button
while keeping the brake pedal fully
pressed.
The set speed adjusts to 20 mph (30 km/h).The indicator, current gap setting and set

CONTROL GAP
Press the button to cycle through
the four gap settings.
E2556686E25566866
The selected gap appears in the instrument
cluster display as shown by the bars in the
image.

Each time you switch the system on, it

Following a Vehicle
When a vehicle ahead of you enters the
same lane or a slower vehicle is ahead in the
same lane, the vehicle speed adjusts to
maintain the gap setting.Note:When you are following a vehicle and
you switch on a turn signal lamp, adaptive
cruise control may provide a small,
temporary acceleration to help you pass.
Your vehicle maintains a consistent gap from
the vehicle ahead until:
• The vehicle in front of you accelerates to
a speed above the set speed.
• The vehicle in front of you moves out of
the lane you are in.
• You set a new gap distance.
The system applies the brakes to slow down
your vehicle to maintain a safe gap distance
from the vehicle in front of you. The system
only applies limited braking. You can
override the system by applying the brakes.
Note:The brakes may emit noise when
applied by the system.
If the system determines that its maximum
braking level is not sufficient, an audible
warning sounds, a message appears in the
instrument cluster display and an indicator
flashes when the system continues to brake.
Take immediate action.

CANCELING THE SET SPEED
E281471
Press the button or tap the brake
pedal.
The set speed does not erase.
RESUMING THE SET SPEED
E281472
Press the button.
Your vehicle speed returns to the previously
set speed and gap setting. The set speed
displays continuously in the information
display when the system is active.
Note:Only use resume if you are aware of
the set speed and intend to return to it.
Resuming the Set Speed from a
Complete Stop
If your vehicle follows a vehicle to a complete
stop and remains stationary for less than
three seconds, your vehicle accelerates from
a stationary position to follow the vehicle
ahead.
E281472
If your vehicle follows a vehicle to
a complete stop and remains
stationary for more than three
seconds, press and release the button or
press the accelerator pedal to follow the
vehicle ahead.
OVERRIDING THE SET SPEED
WARNING: If you override the system
by pressing the accelerator pedal, it does
not automatically apply the brakes to
maintain a gap from any vehicle ahead.
When you press the accelerator pedal, you
override the set speed and gap distance.
Use the accelerator pedal to intentionally
exceed the set speed limit.
When you override the system, the green
indicator illuminates and the vehicle icon
does not appear in the instrument cluster
display.The system resumes operation when you
release the accelerator pedal. The vehicle
speed decreases to the set speed, or a lower
speed if following a slower vehicle.
