Ford 2010 Taurus Automobile User Manual


 
Night time and dark area use
At night time or in dark areas, the camera system relies on the reverse
lamp lighting to produce an image. Therefore it is necessary that both
reverse lamps are operating in order to get a clear image in the dark. If
either of the lamps are not operating, stop using the camera system, at
least in the dark, until the lamp(s) are replaced and functioning.
Servicing
If the image comes on while the vehicle is not in R (Reverse), have
the system inspected by your authorized dealer.
If the image is not clear, then check if there is anything covering the
lens such as dirt, mud, ice, snow, etc. If the image is still not clear
after cleaning, have your system inspected by your authorized dealer.
COLLISION WARNING SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The Collision Warning with Brake Support, is designed to alert the driver
of certain collision risks with a red warning light located above the
dashboard and an audible warning chime. The brake support helps
assists the driver in reducing the collision speed, by pre-charging the
brakes.
WARNING: This system is designed to be a supplementary
driving aid. It is not intended to replace the driver’s attention,
and judgement, or the need to apply the brakes. This system does NOT
activate the brakes automatically. Failure to press the brake pedal to
activate the brakes may result in a collision.
WARNING: The Collision Warning System with Brake Support
cannot help prevent all collisions. Do not rely on this system to
replace driver judgment and the need to maintain distance and speed.
Note: The Collision Warning with Brake Support will not detect, warn, or
respond to potential collisions with vehicles to the rear or sides of the
vehicle.
