MOBILE MEDIA NAVIGATION SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with a mobile media navigation system which
allows you to listen to, record and save music, play DVDs (audio and
video), and operate climate control functions (if equipped).
Your system has a large range of features, yet is easy to use. The display
screen is the primary means for operating the system through the use of
its vertically tabbed menus, text screens and menu displays. Screen
selections are made by touching the desired area on the touchscreen.
The “tabs” along the left side of the screen represent the major
components of the system. The status bars at the top and bottom of the
screen will display for the majority of the time once the system is turned
on and ready for operation. The top status bar will contain menu names,
icons, and a clock. The lower status bar contains climate information (if
equipped), icons and advisory messages. Please refer toStatus barsin
theSystem Overviewchapter for more information. Navigation guidance
is shown on the display touchscreen and is supplemented with voice
prompts.
DRIVING RESTRICTIONS
In order to prevent the system from distracting you while driving, access
to certain functions are restricted when the vehicle is traveling above
5 mph (8 km/h). Restricted functions include:
•Touchscreen keyboard
•Scrolling of long lists
•Jukebox restrictions such as creating/editing playlists, sorting playlists,
editing track, artist and album names
•Uploading photographs
Note:If your vehicle is equipped with SYNC, similar features will be
restricted also.
When the vehicle speed is reduced to 5 mph (8 km/h) or less, system
restrictions are lifted and you have full access to the system.

PRIVACY INFORMATION
When a cellular phone is connected to SYNC, SYNCcreates a profile
within your vehicle that is linked to that cellular phone. This profile is
created in order to offer you more cellular features and to operate more
efficiently. Among other things, this profile may contain data about your
cellular phone book, text messages (read and unread), and call history,
including history of calls when your cell phone was not connected to
SYNC. In addition, if you connect a media device, SYNCcreates and
retains an index of media content supported by SYNC. SYNCalso
records a short development log of approximately 10 minutes of all
recent SYNCactivity. The log profile and other SYNCdata may be
used to improve SYNCand help diagnose any problems that may occur.
The cellular profile, media device index, and development log will remain
in the vehicle unless you delete it and are generally accessible only in
the vehicle when the cellular phone or media player is connected. If you
no longer plan to use SYNCor the vehicle, we recommend you perform
a Master Reset to erase all information stored in SYNC.
SYNCdata cannot be accessed without special equipment and access to
the vehicle’s SYNCmodule. Ford Motor Company and Ford of Canada
will not access SYNCdata for any purpose other than as described
absent consent, a court order, or where required by law enforcement,
other government authorities, or other third parties acting with lawful
authority. Other parties may seek to access the information
independently of Ford Motor Company and Ford of Canada. For further
privacy information, see the sections on 911 Assist™ (if equipped),
Vehicle Health Report (if equipped), and Traffic, Directions and
Information (if equipped).
