HOW DOES ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL WITH STOP AND GO
WORK
Adaptive cruise control with stop and go
uses radar and camera sensors to adjust the
speed of your vehicle to maintain a set gap
from the vehicle in front of you in the same
lane while following it to a complete stop.
You can also engage the system to follow a
vehicle in front of you and adjust set speed
while stopped.
WHAT IS ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL WITH LANE CENTERING
Adaptive cruise control with lane centering
uses radar and camera sensors to help keep
your vehicle in the lane by applying
continuous assistance steering torque input
toward the lane center on highways.
Note:The adaptive cruise control gap setting
operates normally.
WHAT IS INTELLIGENT ADAPTIVE
CRUISE CONTROL
Intelligent adaptive cruise control combines
speed sign recognition with adaptive cruise
control to adjust the cruise set speed to the
speed limit detected by the speed sign
recognition system. For example, if the speed
sign recognition system detects a 50 mph
(80 km/h) speed limit, the cruise set speed
is updated to 50 mph (80 km/h) +/- the
driver's selected speed offset.
Note:The adaptive cruise control gap setting
operates normally.

PRECAUTIONS - VEHICLES WITH:
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
WITH LANE CENTERING
Adaptive cruise control precautions apply to
lane centering unless stated otherwise or
contradicted by a lane centering precaution.
See Adaptive Cruise Control Precautions
(page 306).
WARNING: Do not use the system
when towing a trailer. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in the loss of
control of your vehicle, personal injury or
death.
WARNING: Do not use the system if
any changes or modifications to the
steering wheel have been made. Any
changes or modifications to the steering
wheel could affect the functionality or
performance of the system. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in the
loss of control of your vehicle, personal
injury or death.

Adaptive Cruise Control (If Equipped)

Note:If you perceive the pre-collision assist
alert as being too frequent or disturbing, you
can reduce the alert sensitivity. The low
sensitivity causes fewer and later warnings
of a potential forward collision. The
manufacturer recommends using the high
sensitivity setting where possible.
Note:The sensitivity setting does not affect
the performance of the automatic
emergency braking.
Note:The system turns off when you select
deep conditions or deep sand mode.
Distance Indication and Alert (If Equipped)
This is a function that provides the driver with
a graphical indication of the time gap to other
preceding vehicles traveling in the same
direction. The system shows one of the
graphics that follow in the information
display.
E254797
If the time gap to a preceding vehicle is
small, a red visual indication displays to the
driver.
Note:The system turns off and the graphics
do not display when adaptive cruise control
is active.

Evasive Steering Assist (If Equipped)
If your vehicle is rapidly approaching a road
user, this helps you steer around the road
user.
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
turns off after you fully pass the road user.

TRAILER SWAY CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING: Turning off trailer sway
control increases the risk of loss of vehicle
control, serious injury or death. Ford does
not recommend disabling this feature
except in situations where speed reduction
may be detrimental (such as hill climbing),
the driver has significant trailer towing
experience, and can control trailer sway
and maintain safe operation.Note:This feature does not prevent trailer
sway, but reduces it when it begins.
Note:This feature cannot stop all trailers
from swaying.
Note:In some cases, if your vehicle speed
is too high, the system may turn on multiple
times, gradually reducing your vehicle speed.The system applies the brakes to the
individual wheels and reduces engine torque
to aid vehicle stability. If the trailer begins
to sway, the stability control warning lamp
flashes and a message appears in the
information display. See Information
Messages (page 142). Slow your vehicle
down, pull safely to the side of the road and
check for correct load distribution. See Load
Carrying (page 346).
When you switch the ignition on, the system
automatically turns on. You can switch this
feature off in the touchscreen.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Wheel Lug Nut Torque Specifications
WARNING: When you install a wheel, always remove any corrosion, dirt or foreign materials present on the mounting surfaces of the
wheel or the surface of the wheel hub, brake drum or brake disc that contacts the wheel. Make sure to secure any fasteners that attach
the rotor to the hub so they do not interfere with the mounting surfaces of the wheel. Installing wheels without correct metal-to-metal contact
at the wheel mounting surfaces can cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to come off while your vehicle is in motion, resulting in
loss of vehicle control, personal injury or death.
lb.ft (Nm)*Bolt size
150 lb.ft (204 Nm) M14 x 1.5
*Torque specifications are for nut and bolt threads free of dirt and rust. Use only our recommended replacement fasteners.
Retighten the lug nuts to the specified torque within 100 mi (160 km) after any wheel disturbance (such as tire rotation, changing a flat tire,
wheel removal).
