The lights come on whenever the ignition is in either the on or accessory position.

Welcome and farewell lighting are included in the Lincoln white signature color. The transition from signature color to ambient occurs when the key is placed in the ignition and all doors are closed. Farewell lighting occurs when the key is removed from the ignition and the driver door is opened.

Note: The ambient color will stay on until the ignition is placed in the off position and either of the front doors are opened or the accessory delay timer expires. At that time, the ambient color changes to the signature color.
