Wrong Way Alert
WARNING:
The system is designed to aid the driver. It is not intended to replace your attention and judgment. You are still responsible to drive with due care and attention.
WARNING:
At all times, you are responsible for controlling your vehicle, supervising the system and intervening, if required. Failure to take care may result in the loss of control of your vehicle, serious personal injury or death.
WARNING:
The system may not operate properly if the sensor is blocked. Keep the windshield free from obstruction. |
The system is designed to alert you if it detects that you are driving the wrong way on a freeway exit road. The system uses a sensor behind the interior mirror to detect no entry signs and uses information from the navigation system.
Note:
Do not carry out windshield repairs in the immediate area surrounding the sensor.
Note:
Traffic sign data provided by the navigation system contains information integrated to the data carrier release.
Note:
The system is designed to detect traffic signs meeting the Vienna convention.
Note:
The system may not detect all traffic signs and may incorrectly read signs.
Note:
If your vehicle has a suspension kit not approved by us, the system may not correctly function.
Note:
Always fit Ford original parts when replacing headlamp bulbs. Other bulbs may reduce system performance.
Note:
The system does not operate in some countries. We recommend that you check system availability before use.
If the system detects that you are driving the wrong way on a freeway exit road, a message appears in the information display and a tone sounds. The audio system volume mutes and navigation system guidance pauses.
Note:
In cold and severe weather conditions the system may not function. Rain, snow, spray and large contrasts in lighting can all prevent the sensor from functioning correctly.
Note:
The system may not correctly operate in areas under construction or new infrastructure.
Note:
In exceptional conditions, the system could alert you even if you are not driving the wrong way on a freeway exit road.
