Ford Transit (2018 year). Manual — part 41
WARNINGS
The sensor may incorrectly track lane
markings as other structures or
objects. This can result in a false or
missed warning.
In cold and severe weather
conditions the system may not
function. Rain, snow and spray can
all limit sensor performance.
The system will not operate if the
sensor cannot track the road lane
markings.
If damage occurs in the immediate
area surrounding the sensor, have
your vehicle checked as soon as
possible.
The system may not correctly
operate if your vehicle is fitted with
a suspension kit not approved by us.
Note: Keep the windshield free from
obstructions for example bird droppings,
insects and snow or ice.
Note: The system may assist you when
driving on fast main roads and freeways.
Note: The system may not operate on roads
with sharp bends, narrow lanes, areas under
construction, during hard braking or
acceleration and when you are intentionally
steering your vehicle.
Note: Do not carry out windshield repairs
in the immediate area surrounding the
sensor.
Note: The system operates with a minimum
of one tracked lane marking.
Note: The system only operates above
vehicle speeds of approximately 40 mph
(65 km/h).
The sensor is behind the interior mirror. It
continuously monitors conditions to alert
you of unintentional lane drifting at high
speeds.
The system automatically detects and
tracks the lane markings on the road. If the
system detects that your vehicle is
unintentionally drifting toward the lane
markings, a warning is shown in the
information display. There is also a warning
given in the form of a vibration felt through
the steering wheel.
Note: The vibration intensity from the
steering wheel may decrease depending on
the quality of the road surface.

System Warnings
E152382
When you switch the system on, an image
of a vehicle showing lane markings
appears in the information display. When
you switch the system off, the image does
not display.
When the system is on, the color of the
lane markings will change to indicate the
system status.
The lane markings are color coded as
follows:
•
Green: The system is ready to warn you
of any unintentional lane departure.
•
Red: Your vehicle is approaching or is
too close to the detected lane
boundary. Take immediate safe action
to reposition your vehicle.
•
Gray: The system will suppress the
relevant lane boundary.
Instances where a lane boundary may be
suppressed:
•
The sensor may not detect the lane
markings on the road.
•
You turn the direction indicator for that
side of your vehicle on.
•
If you apply direct steering, accelerate
fast or brake hard.
•
Your vehicle speed is outside the
operating limits.
•
If there is an anti-lock brake or stability
control intervention.
•
Narrow lane width.
If the lane markings in the display turn red
or you feel a vibration through the steering
wheel you must take immediate and safe
action to align your vehicle. Correct any
unintended lane drift immediately.
STEERING
To help prevent damage to the power
steering system:
•
Never hold the steering wheel at its
furthest turning points (until it stops)
for more than three to five seconds
when the engine is running.
•
Do not operate the vehicle with a low
power steering pump fluid level (below
the MIN mark on the reservoir).
•
Some noise is normal during operation.
If excessive, check for low power
steering pump fluid level before
seeking service by your dealer.
•
Heavy or uneven efforts may be caused
by low power steering fluid. Check for
low power steering pump fluid level
before seeking service by your dealer.
•
Do not fill the power steering pump
reservoir above the MAX mark on the
reservoir, as this may result in leaks
from the reservoir.
If the power steering system breaks down
(or if the engine is turned off), you can
steer the vehicle manually, but it takes
more effort.
If the steering wanders or pulls, check for:
•
an improperly inflated tire
•
uneven tire wear
•
loose or worn suspension components
•
loose or worn steering components
•
improper vehicle alignment
If any steering components are serviced or
replaced, install new fasteners (many are
coated with thread adhesive or have
prevailing torque features which may not
be re-used). Never re-use a bolt or nut.
Torque fasteners to specifications.
A high crown in the road or high crosswinds
may also make the steering seem to
wander or pull.
