System Operation
Overview
NOTE: In order to prevent discharge of the battery,
if the vehicle is stationary, the Bluetooth mobile
phone and the voice control should only be used
for long periods when the engine is running.
NOTE: For certain mobile phones with the Symbian
operating system, a particular file must be installed
to allow full access to the telephone directory via
Bluetooth. This file is referred to as an SIS file and
can be downloaded from the Ford website. You
can obtain more detailed information from your
Ford dealer.
The system allows the driver to use a Bluetooth
equipped cellular phone handset through the
vehicles Information and Entertainment system.
A physical connection (adapter) between the phone
handset and the telephone control module is not
necessary and is therefore not available.
Communications between the two components are
purely Bluetooth. This can limit the available
functions dependant on the handset used.
The mobile phone system comprises the following
components:
• Control module for mobile electronic auxiliary equipment
• Microphone.
The control module for the mobile electronic
auxiliary equipment is connected to the
Infotainment system via the CAN bus and the audio
line. This enables audio and control signals to be
passed to and from the auxiliary equipment. The
mobile electronic auxiliary equipment control
module is equipped with a built-in Bluetooth
antenna.
Using Bluetooth it is possible to transfer audio files
from Bluetooth compatible storage media to the audio system and replay them (audio streaming).
This function will however only be available at a
later date.
Voice Control
Voice control makes it possible to operate the audio
system without the driver being distracted from the
traffic situation.
When the system is active, if the driver issues a
pre-defined order, the voice recognition system
converts this command into a control signal for the
various multimedia systems. The input can take
the form of dialogues or commands. The driver is
guided through the dialogues by announcements
or questions.
The following systems can be controlled using the
voice recognition system:
• Mobile phone
• Radio function
• CD player/CD changer
•
EATC (electronic automatic temperature control)
• DVD navigation system with touchscreen – Voice control via the mobile electronicauxiliary equipment control module is
unnecessary for the DVD navigation system
with touchscreen because this system has
its own integrated voice control function. G1055659en

Radio remote control
On vehicles with hands-free kit and voice control,
the radio remote control has a Voice button for
activating the voice control and for picking up and
hanging up a telephone call.
USB port/AUX socket
A USB port and an AUX socket are provided in the
center console for variants 2 and 3. These can be
used to adapt external audio sources such as an
iPod to the on-board audio system. After it is
connected, the iPod is recognized as such and can
be controlled over the audio system. The audio
signal is received via the AUX socket.

System Operation
General
In a communications network (data bus system),
various modules of different systems are connected
to one another via one or several lines.
The data bus system is used exclusively for
transmitting data between the connected modules,
as well as between the connected modules and
the Ford diagnostic unit.
In a data bus system, complete data blocks are
transmitted instead of single on/off pulses. In
addition to the actual information, these data blocks
also contain data regarding the address of the
module to be addressed, the size of the data block
and information for monitoring the content of each
individual data block.
Data bus systems offer various advantages: • Simplified data transmission between the
modules due to a standardized protocol
• Fewer sensors and connectors
• Improved diagnostic options
• Lower costs
The DLC is connected to the various data bus
systems and to the power supply via the standard
16-pin GEM. The signal for the module
programming is also transferred via the DLC.
In a data bus system, if there is a break in one or
both lines or there is a short to ground or to voltage,
then communication between the modules and
with the Ford diagnostic unit is disturbed or is no
longer possible at all.
In order to be able to establish communication with
one another, the modules of the individual systems G1030779en
