Systemconsistently shows Stop now take control of steering warning: • The systemdisplays thiswarningwhen it can no longer steer the vehicle and you must take over steering. There are four reasons why this warning displays and additional information regarding the reason for the warning is available on the center display. • The steering wheel is touched while the system is controlling it. Avoid touching the wheel during system operation. • The maximum speed for feature operation is exceeded. System performance is optimized at slower speeds. Backup slowly.

• The sticker was lost by the camera system. Once your vehicle is stopped additional warnings indicate the sticker was lost. Refer to sticker lost trouble shooting tips. • An internal condition for system operation was not met which requires your vehicle return to manual control of the steering. Note: The system is designed to be used with the same trailer connection every time the trailer is chosen from the selection menu. Using a different drawbar or a different pin hole (on drawbars with more than one) when connecting the drawbar to your vehicle affects the trailer measurements. Take the measurements again and update if required. TRAILER SWAY CONTROL WARNING Turning off trailer sway control increases the risk of loss of vehicle control, serious injury or death. Ford does not recommenddisabling this feature except in situationswhere speed reduction may be detrimental (such as hill climbing), the driver has significant trailer towing experience, and can control trailer sway and maintain safe operation. Note: This feature does not prevent trailer sway, but reduces it once it begins. Note: This feature cannot stop all trailers from swaying. Note: In some cases, if vehicle speed is too high, the systemmay activate multiple times, gradually reducing vehicle speed.
