Lincoln 2011 Navigator - Manual (Page 227)

WARNING: Remember that even advanced technology cannot
defy the laws of physics. It’s always possible to lose control of a
vehicle due to inappropriate driver input for the conditions. Aggressive
driving on any road condition can cause you to lose control of your
vehicle increasing the risk of personal injury or property damage.
Activation of the AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡ system is an indication that at
least some of the tires have exceeded their ability to grip the road; this
could reduce the operator’s ability to control the vehicle, potentially
resulting in a loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and
death. If your AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡ system activates, SLOW DOWN.
WARNING: If a failure has been detected within the
AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡ system, the stability control light will
illuminate steadily. Verify that the AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡ system is
not manually disabled (press the stability control button located on the
center of the instrument panel). If the stability control light still
illuminates steadily, have the system serviced by an authorized dealer
immediately. Operating your vehicle with AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡
disabled could lead to an increased risk of loss of vehicle control,
vehicle rollover, personal injury and death.
The AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡ system automatically enables each time the
engine is started. All features of the AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡ system
(TCS, ESC, and RSC
௡ are active and monitor the vehicle from start-up).
However, the system will only intervene if the driving situation requires it.
The AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡
system includes a stability control
button on the center of the
instrument panel, and a stability
control light in the instrument
cluster. The stability control light in
the instrument cluster will illuminate temporarily during start-up as part
of a normal system self-check, or during driving if a driving situation
causes the AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡ system to operate. If the stability
control light illuminates steadily, verify that the AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡
system is not manually disabled by pressing the stability control button
located on the center of the instrument panel. If the stability control
light remains steadily illuminated, have the system serviced by an
authorized dealer immediately. The message center will also indicate a
failure with the AdvanceTrac
௡ with RSC௡ system.
