ACCESSING AND ADJUSTING MODES THROUGH YOUR
INFOTAINMENT DISPLAY
The infotainment display (A) is located on the right side of your
instrument cluster. It allows you to view and make minor adjustments to
active modes without taking your hands off the wheel. For example:
•In entertainment mode, you can view what is now playing, change the
audio source, select presets and make some adjustments.
• In phone mode, you can accept or reject an incoming call.
• In navigation mode (if equipped), you can view the current route or
activate a route.
• In surplus mode, surplus (or status) is represented by either
butterflies or a gauge. The number of butterflies matches the current
surplus or status distance up to a maximum of sixteen butterflies. The
more efficiently you drive, the more butterflies (or higher status)
display, and vice versa. See Message centerin theInstrument Cluster
chapter for more information.
When you enter or turn off the vehicle, you have the opportunity to view
charging status, charge start and end times as well as the charging mode.
You can also switch your charging mode between Value Charge and
Charge Now. See Convenience charging with MyFord mobile in the
High Voltage Battery chapter.

direction is to the right of west.)

noise from open windows and road vibrations may prevent the system
from correctly recognizing spoken commands.
• After pressing the voice icon, wait until after the tone sounds and

prior to this does not register with the system.
• Speak naturally, without long pauses between words.

Voice Settings
Voice settings allow you to customize the level of system interaction,
help and feedback. The system defaults to standard interaction which
uses candidate lists and confirmation prompts as these provide the
highest level of guidance and feedback.
Interaction Mode:Novice mode provides more detailed interaction and
guidance while the advanced mode has less audible interaction and more
tone prompts.
Confirmation Prompts: Confirmation prompts are short questions the
system asks when it is not sure of your request or when there are
multiple possible responses to your request. If turned off, the system
simply makes a best guess as to what you requested and you may still
occasionally be asked to confirm settings.
Phone/Media Candidate Lists: Candidate lists are a list of possible
results from your voice commands. The system creates these lists when
it has the same confidence level of several options based on your voice
command.
To access these settings using the touchscreen:
1. Press the Menu icon > Settings > Voice Control.
2. Select from:
• Interaction Mode
• Confirmation Prompts
• Media Candidate Lists
• Phone Candidate Lists
• Voice Control Volume
To access these settings using voice commands: Press the voice icon; after the tone sounds, the system says
“Please say a command”. Another tone sounds to let you know
the system is listening.
Using Voice Commands with the Touchscreen Options
Your voice system has a dual mode feature which allows you to switch
between using voice commands and making on-screen selections. This is
most often available when using navigation.
On-screen buttons are outlined in blue to indicate the selections that are
part of the dual mode feature. For example, if while you are in a voice
session rather than saying the command “Enter Street Name” to change
the field, you can press “Street” and the voice session does not end.
Instead, the voice system changes to the Street field and asks you to say

A/V Inputs Your A/V inputs allow you to connect an
auxiliary audio/video source (game
systems, personal camcorders, etc.) by
connecting RCA cords (not included) to
these input jacks. The jacks are yellow,
red and white and are located either
behind a small access door on the
instrument panel or in your center console.
You can also use the A/V inputs as an auxiliary input jack (AIJ) to play
music from your portable music player over your vehicle’s speakers. Plug
in your 1/8 in. (3.5 mm) RCA adapter into the two left A/V input jacks
(red and white).
Press the lower left corner of the touchscreen, then, select A/V inputs.
To use the auxiliary input jack feature, make sure that your portable
music player is designed to be used with headphones and that it is fully
charged. You also need an audio extension cable with stereo male 1/8 in.
(3.5 mm) connectors at one end and a RCA jack at the other.
1. Begin with the vehicle parked and the radio and portable device are turned off.
2. Attach one end of the audio extension cable to the headphone output of your player and the other end into the adaptor in one of the two
left A/V input jacks (white or red) inside the center console.
3. Press the lower left corner on the touchscreen. Select either a tuned station from the FM tab or the CD tab (if there is a CD already
loaded into the system.) Adjust the volume to a comfortable listening
level.
4. Turn the portable music player on and adjust the volume to 1/2 the volume.

5. Press the lower left corner on the touchscreen. Select the A/V in tab.(You should hear audio from your portable music player although it
may be low.)
6. Adjust the sound on your portable music player until it reaches the level of the FM station or CD by switching back and forth between
the controls.
In order to playback video from your iPod or iPhone(if compatible),
you must have a special combination USB/RCA composite video cable
(available for purchase from Apple). When the cable is connected to
your iPod or iPhone, plug the other end into both the RCA jacks and
the USB port.
Note: For safety reasons, connecting or adjusting the settings on your
portable music player should not be attempted while the vehicle is
moving. Also, the portable music player should be stored in a secure
location, such as the center console or the glove box, when the vehicle is
in motion. The audio extension cable must be long enough to allow the
portable music player to be safely stored while the vehicle is in motion.
Troubleshooting
• Do not connect the audio input jack to a line level output. The AIJ
only works correctly with devices that have a headphone output with
a volume control.
• Do not set the portable music player’s volume level higher than is
necessary to match the volume of the CD or FM radio as this causes
distortion and reduces sound quality.
• If the music sounds distorted at lower listening levels, turn the
portable music player volume down. If the problems persists, replace
or recharge the batteries in the portable music player.
• The portable music player must be controlled in the same manner
when it is used with headphones as the AIJ does not provide control
(play, pause, etc.) over the attached portable music player.
