Lane Keeping System - Lincoln 2013 MKZ Owner's Manual

These systems have a range of modes
which you can choose from in order
to customize your ideal driving
experience:
• Comfort – Provides a more relaxed
driving experience. Steering effort
is decreased, suspension
movement is more fluid. Comfort
mode is ideal when enhanced
traveling comfort is desired.
• Normal – Delivers a balanced
combination of comfortable,
controlled ride and confident
handling and powerful yet quiet
powertrain sound. This mode
provides an engaging drive
experience and a direct connection
to the road without sacrificing any
of the composure demanded from
a luxury vehicle. Unwanted noises
from the powertrain are cancelled
while desired sounds are shaped
to deliver a smooth powerful note.
This setting is ideal for everyday
use and daily driving.
• Sport – Provides a sportier driving
experience. Suspension stiffens,
with an emphasis on handling and
control. The engine responds more
directly to your inputs and takes
on a more powerful tone. Sport
mode is intended to be used during
more spirited driving.
You can configure which of the
Adaptive Drive modes is active when
the vehicle is in D (Drive) or in S
(Sport). The configuration is retained
until modified from the main menu on
the information display. See General
Information (page 100).
