Lincoln Aviator: Cross Traffic Alert / Cross Traffic Alert Behavior When Trailer is Attached
Note: The system may not correctly operate
when towing a trailer. For vehicles with an
approved trailer tow module and tow bar,
the system turns off when you attach a
trailer. For vehicles with an aftermarket
trailer tow module or tow bar, we
recommend that you switch the system off
when you attach a trailer.
Cross traffic alert remains on when you
attach a trailer in vehicles that come with
blind spot information system with trailer tow
under the following conditions:
- You connect a trailer.
- The trailer is a bike rack or cargo rack
with a maximum length of 3 ft (1 m).
- You set the trailer length to 3 ft (1 m) in
the information display.
The system may not correctly operate when
any of the following occur:
The sensors are blocked.
Adjacently parked vehicles or objects are
obstructing the sensors...
To switch the system on or off, adjust the
setting. Depending on your vehicle options,
the setting could be in the following:
Information display.
Touchscreen...

Sensor Limitations
WARNING: On rare occasions,
detection issues can occur due to the road
infrastructures, for example bridges,
tunnels and safety barriers. In these cases,
the system may brake late or
unexpectedly. At all times, you are
responsible for controlling your vehicle,
supervising the system and intervening, if
required...
