How to get the right MKS manual

  1. Find your VIN on the driver's side of the dashboard or the door jamb label, and decode it below to confirm the model year and trim.
  2. Open the official Lincoln owner site and choose the MKS.
  3. Select your model year. If the site asks for a VIN, use it so the manual matches your exact equipment.
  4. Download the owner's manual plus any separate guides for navigation, infotainment, warranty and maintenance.
  5. Save the PDF to your phone so it's there when you're in the car without signal.

Questions

Where can I get the Lincoln MKS owner's manual?

Lincoln publishes owner's manuals on its official owner site (lincoln.com). Choose the MKS and your model year, or sign in with your VIN so the manual matches your trim.

Is the manual the same for every MKS year?

No. Manuals are written for each model year and the MKS spans 2009–2016. Equipment, infotainment and maintenance intervals change between years and generations, so always use the edition for your year.

How do I check recalls on a Lincoln MKS?

Use the recall checker on this page, which searches NHTSA's recall database by model year. Recalls apply to specific VINs, so confirm with a Lincoln dealer or at nhtsa.gov/recalls using your 17 character VIN.
