Lincoln AVIATOR 2023 - Switching Lane Centering on and off

E71340
The cruise control indicator
replaces the adaptive cruise
control indicator if you select
normal cruise control. The gap setting does
not display, and the system does not respond
to lead vehicles. Automatic braking remains
active to maintain set speed. The system
remembers the last setting when you start
your vehicle.
SWITCHING LANE CENTERING ON
AND OFF
The cruise controls are on the steering
wheel. See Cruise Control (page 104).

Press the button.
The indicator appears in the information
display. When the system is on, the color of
the indicator changes to indicate the system
status. See Adaptive Cruise Control
Indicators (page 312).
Note: Adaptive cruise control must be on
before you can switch lane centering on.
Activating Lane Centering
The system only activates when all of the
following occur:
• You have adaptive cruise control with
stop-and-go on.
• The vehicle is centered in the lane.
• Your hands are on the steering wheel at
all times.
• The system detects both lane markings.
Note: If it does not detect valid lane
markings, the system stays inactive until
valid markings are available.
You can override the system at any time by
steering your vehicle.
When lane centering is active and the
direction indicator is switched on, the system
immediately cancels. The system remains in
standby mode as long as the direction
indicator is engaged. The system re-activates
automatically once the vehicle is centered
in a lane and the direction indicator is
switched off.
System Alerts and Automatic
Cancellation
You must keep your hands on the steering
wheel at all times.
When the system is active and detects no
steering activity for a certain period of time,
the system alerts you to put your hands on
the steering wheel. If you do not react to the
warnings the system cancels and slows your
vehicle down to idle speeds while
maintaining steering control.
The system also alerts you if your vehicle
crosses lane markings without detected
steering activity.
Note: The system may detect a light grip or
touch on the steering wheel as hands-off
driving.
When the system is cancelled due to an
external condition, for example, no lane
markings are available and your hands are
not on the steering wheel, the system
immediately alerts you to take control of the
vehicle. If this alert is ignored, the system
slows the vehicle while maintaining steering
control.
