Shield Operation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2022 Lincoln Nautilus. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

When the shield OPEN switch is pressed and released the shield will automatically open and stop at the front of the roof opening panel fixed glass (comfort stop), leaving only the sliding glass panel exposed. Pressing and releasing the shield OPEN switch a second time (after the initial stop) will open the shield to the full open position. When the sliding glass panel is closed, the shield is open to any position beyond comfort stop and the shield CLOSE switch is pressed and released, the shield moves forward to the comfort stop position and stops. After stopping at the comfort stop position, pressing and releasing the shield Close switch again will fully close the shield. If the shield is in the closed position and the front sliding glass panel OPEN switch is pressed, the shield will perform a one-touch open operation automatically which will then be followed by the front sliding glass panel operation that was requested. To partially open or close the shield while it is moving, press shield OPEN or CLOSE switch again to stop the shield in the desired position.
