What is the AdvanceTrac system in my Lincoln?
Some Lincoln vehicles come equipped with the AdvanceTrac®*system to keep vehicles from losing traction in difficult driving situations.
What are the AdvanceTrac features?
See the table below for all features included in the AdvanceTrac system and a description of each feature.
| AdvanceTrac Feature | Feature Description |
| Traction Control System | Helps avoid drive-wheel spin and loss of traction by selectively applying the brakes and modifying engine power |
| Electronic Stability Control | Helps to avoid skids or lateral slides, lateral acceleration, and steering wheel angle |
| Roll Stability Control | Helps to avoid a vehicle rollover by using a roll-rate sensor, selectively applying brakes, and modifying engine power |
How does AdvanceTrac work?
AdvanceTrac is on by default and requires no driver interaction to operate. AdvanceTrac senses when your vehicle loses control or traction and automatically applies braking and adjusts throttle control to help keep you on the road.
For more information, refer to your Owner's Manual or the video below.
How do I disable AdvanceTrac?
AdvancedTrac is enabled by default and cannot be turned off. However, you can turn off the Traction Control System temporarily if your vehicle is stuck in mud, sand, or snow. Turning the Traction Control System off restores full engine power and allows the wheels to spin freely, enhancing momentum when you are trying to free your vehicle.
To turn the Traction Control System off, press and hold the Traction Control button for up to 5 seconds.
Your instrument cluster will display a message stating "Traction Control is off." You can turn it back on by pressing the Traction Control button again.
Note: The location of the button depends on your model and year. Refer to your Owner's Manual for information specific to your vehicle.

How do I use Reverse Brake Assist?
*Driver-assist features are supplemental and do not replace the driver’s attention, judgment and need to control the vehicle. Remember that even advanced technology cannot overcome the laws of physics. It’s always possible to lose control of a vehicle due to inappropriate driver input for the conditions.
