Manual Tilt/Telescope Steering Column (if equipped)
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Lincoln MKX and 2014 Ford Edge. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The manual tilt/telescope function of the steering column is controlled by a mechanical lever on the underside of the steering column, which uses a cam to lock and unlock the steering column. When the lever is pulled down, the steering column can be adjusted up or down and in or out to the desired position(s). While holding the steering wheel in the desired position, pulling the lever up to its original position locks the steering column.
