The sensors warn you if there is an object in front of or behind the vehicle. The rear sensors are active only when the transmission is in reverse (R). The front sensors are active when the gearshift is in any position other than park (P) and the vehicle is traveling at a low speed. As the vehicle moves closer to the obstacle, the rate of the audible warning increases.

Rear Passenger Controls

The rear passengers have access to a control panel that will allow them to adjust the climate and audio.

The rear climate controls allow rear passengers to adjust the temperature, fan speed and air distribution for the rear seating area. The heated rear seat buttons are also on this panel. You can select the rear control lock to restrict the control of the rear settings to the front control.

The rear audio controls allow the rear passengers to adjust the source and volume of the media. Seek, fast forward and reverse buttons are also available.
The controls include a rear passenger display screen.

Ambient Lighting

To access and make adjustments, use your touchscreen:

1. Press the Settings icon then Ambient Lighting.
2. Touch the desired color.
3. Use the scroll bar to increase or decrease the intensity.

To switch ambient lighting off, press the active color once or drag the active color all the way down to zero intensity.

Daytime Running Lamps

The LED lights automatically turn on when you switch on the ignition, the transmission is not in park (P) and the headlamp control is in the off , parking lamps or autolamps* position.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System

Your vehicle comes with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that displays a low tire pressure warning light when one or more of your tires are under-inflated. If this happens, stop and check your tires as soon as possible. Inflate them to the proper pressure. Refer to the Wheels and Tires chapter of your Owner's Manual for more information.

Fuel Type and Fuel Tank Capacity

Your Navigator's fuel tank capacity is 23 gallons (87.8 liters). Navigator L models have a fuel tank capacity of 28 gallons (107.1 liters). We recommend regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87. To provide improved performance, we recommend premium fuel for severe duty usage such as trailer towing. Do not use E85 (ethanol), diesel, fuel-methanol, leaded fuel or any other fuel because it could damage or impair the emission control system.

Location of Spare Tire and Tools

The temporary spare tire is under the vehicle, in front of the rear bumper. Use it only for emergency use and replace it as soon as possible. The jack and tools are under the access panel in the floor compartment behind the rear seat. Make sure you switch off the power running boards* prior to jacking, hoisting or towing your vehicle. Refer to your Owner's Manual for more information.

Pro Trailer Backup Assist*

The Pro Trailer Backup Assist control knob helps assist you in backing up your trailer. Turn the knob in the direction you want the trailer to go and the system will take over the steering to get it there. This system will not work until you set it up.

See the Pro Trailer Backup Assist Quick Start Guide in your Owner's Manual portfolio for the complete setup and operation details.

Head Up Display*

This is a visual system that shows information in your field of view as you drive. The information comes from various vehicle systems and includes vehicle speed, speed limit, navigation, and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), such as Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and the lane keeping system. This system projects the information off the windshield and focuses the image near the end of the hood approximately 7 feet (2.1 meters) in front of the driver. Viewing this information does not require you to significantly move your head, allowing you to keep your eyes on the road while having quick and easy access to information.

Personal Profiles

You can personalize positional settings such as seats and mirrors, as well as non-positional settings such as radio, navigation, driver assist and system settings. You can use this menu to edit, link, unlink, and rename a key fob. You can also delete any personal profiles. For more information, see the SYNC 3 chapter in your Owner's Manual.
