CALIFORNIA Proposition 65 Warning
WARNING: Engine exhaust, some of its constituents, and certain vehicle components contain or emit chemicals known to
the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. In addition, certain fluids contained in vehicles and certain products of component wear contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
CONGRATULATIONS
Congratulations on acquiring your new Lincoln. Please take the time to get well acquainted with your vehicle by reading this handbook. The more you know and understand about your vehicle, the greater the safety and pleasure you will derive from driving it.
For more information on Ford Motor Company and its products visit the following website:
•In the United States: www.ford.com
•In Canada: www.ford.ca
•In Mexico: www.ford.com.mx
•In Australia: www.ford.com.au
Additional owner information is given in separate publications.
This Owner’s Guide describes every option and model variant available and therefore some of the items covered may not apply to your particular vehicle. Furthermore, due to printing cycles it may describe options before they are generally available.
Remember to pass on the Owner’s Guide when reselling the vehicle. It is an integral part of the vehicle.
Fuel pump shut-off switch: In the event of an accident the safety switch will automatically cut off the fuel supply to the
engine. The switch can also be activated through sudden vibration (e.g. collision when parking). To reset the switch, refer to the Fuel pump shut-off switch in the Roadside Emergencies chapter.
SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION
Warning symbols in this guide
How can you reduce the risk of personal injury to yourself or others? In this guide, answers to such questions are contained in comments highlighted by the warning triangle symbol. These comments should be read and observed.
4
Introduction
Warning symbols on your vehicle
When you see this symbol, it is imperative that you consult the relevant section of this guide before touching or attempting adjustment of any kind.
Protecting the environment
We must all play our part in protecting the environment. Correct vehicle usage and the authorized disposal of waste, cleaning and lubrication materials are significant
steps towards this aim. Information in this respect is highlighted in this guide with the tree symbol.
BREAKING-IN YOUR VEHICLE
Your vehicle does not need an extensive break-in. Try not to drive continuously at the same speed for the first 1,000 miles (1,600 km) of new vehicle operation. Vary your speed frequently in order to give the moving parts a chance to break in.
Drive your new vehicle at least 500 miles (800 km) before towing a trailer. Additionally, during the first 500 miles (800 km) that you tow a trailer, do not drive over 70 mph (112 km/h) and do not make starts at full throttle. This style of driving will help the engine and other parts of your vehicle break in at the heavier loads.
Do not add friction modifier compounds or special break-in oils during the first few thousand miles (kilometers) of operation, since these additives may prevent piston ring seating. See Engine oil in the Maintenance and Specifications chapter for more information on oil usage.
SPECIAL NOTICES
Emission warranty
The New Vehicle Limited Warranty includes Bumper-to-Bumper Coverage, Safety Restraint Coverage, Corrosion Coverage, and 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel Engine Coverage. In addition, your vehicle is eligible for Emissions Defect and Emissions Performance Warranties. For a detailed description of what is covered and what is not covered, refer to the Warranty Guide that is provided to you along with your Owner’s Guide.

Introduction
Service Data Recording
Service data recorders in your vehicle are capable of collecting and storing diagnostic information about your vehicle. This potentially includes information about the performance or status of various systems and modules in the vehicle, such as engine, throttle, steering or brake systems. In order to properly diagnose and service your vehicle, Ford Motor Company, Ford of Canada, and service and repair facilities may access vehicle diagnostic information through a direct connection to your vehicle when diagnosing or servicing your vehicle.
Event Data Recording
Other modules in your vehicle — event data recorders — are capable of collecting and storing data during a crash or near crash event. The recorded information may assist in the investigation of such an event. The modules may record information about both the vehicle and the occupants, potentially including information such as:
•how various systems in your vehicle were operating;
•whether or not the driver and passenger seatbelts were buckled;
•how far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or the brake pedal;
•how fast the vehicle was traveling; and
•where the driver was positioning the steering wheel.
To access this information, special equipment must be directly connected to the recording modules. Ford Motor Company and Ford of Canada do not access event data recorder information without obtaining consent, unless pursuant to court order or where required by law enforcement, other government authorities or other third parties acting with lawful authority. Other parties may seek to access the information independently of Ford Motor Company and Ford of Canada.

Introduction
Special instructions
For your added safety, your vehicle is fitted with sophisticated electronic controls.
Please read the section Supplemental restraint system (SRS) 
in the Seating and Safety Restraints chapter. Failure to follow the specific warnings and instructions could result in personal injury.
Front seat mounted rear-facing child or infant seats should NEVER be placed in front of an active passenger air bag.
Using your vehicle with a snowplow
Do not use this vehicle for snowplowing.
Your vehicle is not equipped with a snowplowing package.
Notice to owners of pickup trucks and utility type vehicles
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than other types of vehicles.
Before you drive your vehicle, please read this Owner’s Guide carefully. Your vehicle is not a passenger car. As with other vehicles of this type, failure to operate this vehicle correctly may result in loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal injury or death.
Be sure to read Driving off road in the Driving chapter.

WARNING LIGHTS AND CHIMES
Warning lights and gauges can alert you to a vehicle condition that may become serious enough to cause expensive repairs. A warning light may illuminate when a problem exists with one of your vehicle’s functions.
Many lights will illuminate when you start your vehicle to make sure the bulb works. If any light remains on after starting the vehicle, have the respective system inspected immediately.
Service engine soon: The 
indicator light illuminates when the
ignition is first turned to the ON position to check the bulb. Solid
illumination after the engine is started indicates the On Board Diagnostics System (OBD-II) has detected a malfunction. Refer to On board diagnostics (OBD-II) in the Maintenance and Specifications chapter. If the light is blinking, engine misfire is occurring which could damage your catalytic converter. Drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy acceleration and deceleration) and have your vehicle serviced immediately.
Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust temperatures could damage the catalytic converter, the fuel system, interior
floor coverings or other vehicle components, possibly causing a fire.
Brake system warning light: To |

||
light is functional, it will |
BRAKE |
|
momentarily illuminate when the |
||
ignition is turned to the ON position
when the engine is not running, or in a position between ON and START,
10
Instrument Cluster
or by applying the parking brake when the ignition is turned to the ON position. If the brake system warning light does not illuminate at this time, seek service immediately from your dealership. Illumination after releasing the parking brake indicates low brake fluid level and the brake system should be inspected immediately by your servicing dealership.
Driving a vehicle with the brake system warning light on is dangerous. A significant decrease in braking performance may
occur. It will take you longer to stop the vehicle. Have the vehicle checked by your dealer immediately.
Anti-lock brake system: If the
ABS light stays illuminated or ABS continues to flash, a malfunction has
been detected, have the system serviced immediately. Normal
braking is still functional unless the brake warning light also is illuminated.
Air bag readiness: If this light fails to illuminate when ignition is turned to ON, continues to flash or remains on, have the system serviced
immediately. A chime will also sound when a malfunction in the supplemental restraint system has been detected.
Safety belt: Reminds you to fasten your safety belt. A chime will also sound to remind you to fasten your safety belt.
Charging system: Illuminates when the battery is not charging properly.
Engine oil pressure: Illuminates when the oil pressure falls below the normal range. Refer to Engine oil in the Maintenance and Specifications chapter.
11
Instrument Cluster
Engine coolant temperature:
Illuminates when the engine coolant temperature is high. Stop the
vehicle as soon as safely possible, switch off the engine and let it cool. Refer to Engine coolant in the Maintenance and Specifications chapter.
Never remove the coolant reservoir cap while the engine is running or hot.
Low tire warning (if equipped with the Tire Pressure Monitoring System): Illuminates when your tire pressure is low. If the light remains on at start up or
while driving, the tire pressure should be checked. Refer to Inspecting and Inflating Your Tires in the Tires, Wheels and Loading chapter. When the ignition is first turned to ON, the light will illuminate for 3 seconds to ensure the bulb is working. If the light does not turn ON, have the system inspected by your servicing dealership. For more information on this system, refer to Understanding Your Tire Pressure Monitoring System in the Tires, Wheels and Loading chapter.
AdvanceTrac (if equipped):
Illuminates when the AdvanceTrac with RSC system is active. If the light remains on, have the system serviced immediately.
Speed control: Illuminates when the speed control is activated. Turns off when the speed control system is deactivated.
Four wheel drive low (if equipped): Illuminates when four-wheel drive low is engaged. If the light fails to illuminate when the
ignition is turned ON, continues to flash or remains on, have the system serviced immediately.

Instrument Cluster
Speedometer: Indicates the current vehicle speed.
Engine coolant temperature gauge: Indicates engine coolant temperature. At normal operating
temperature, the needle will be in the normal range (between “H” and
“C”). If it enters the red section, the engine is overheating. Stop the
vehicle as soon as safely possible, switch off the engine and let the
engine cool. Refer to Engine coolant in the Maintenance and Specifications chapter.
Never remove the coolant reservoir cap while the engine is running or hot.
Odometer: Registers the total miles (kilometers) of the vehicle.
Refer to Message Center in the Drivers Controls chapter on how to switch the display from Metric to English.
Trip odometer: Registers the miles (kilometers) of individual journeys. Press and release the message
center INFO button until “TRIP” appears in the display (this
represents the trip mode). Press the

14
Instrument Cluster
Tachometer: Indicates the engine speed in revolutions per minute. Driving with your tachometer pointer continuously at the top of the scale may damage the engine.
Fuel gauge: Indicates approximately how much fuel is left in the fuel tank (when the ignition
is in the ON position). The fuel gauge may vary slightly when the vehicle is in motion or on a grade.
The ignition should be in the OFF
position while the vehicle is being refueled. When the gauge first
indicates empty, there is a small
amount of reserve fuel in the tank. When refueling the vehicle from empty indication, the amount of fuel that can be added will be less than the advertised capacity due to the reserve fuel.
The FUEL icon and arrow indicates which side of the vehicle the fuel filler door is located.
Refer to Filling the tank in the Maintenance and Specifications chapter for more information.
