GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING
Driving while distracted can result in
loss of vehicle control, accident and
injury. Ford strongly recommends
that drivers use extreme caution when
using any device or feature that may take
their focus off the road. Your primary
responsibility is the safe operation of the
vehicle. We recommend against the use
of any handheld device while driving,
encourage the use of voice-operated
systems when possible and that you
become aware of applicable state and
local laws that may affect use of electronic
devices while driving.
Note: Some features are not available while
the vehicle is moving.
Note: You can also directly access the
Home screen and Information screen by
pressing the Home ("house" icon) and
Information ("i" icon) buttons on your
steering wheel controls.
This system uses a four-corner strategy to
provide quick access to vehicle features
and settings. The comprehensive
touchscreen provides easy interaction with
your mobile phone, multimedia, climate
control and navigation system. The corners
display any active modes within those
menus, such as your phone being
connected or the climate temperature.

Using the Touch-Sensitive
Controls on Your System
Your vehicle's centerstack has
touch-sensitive switches for your
infotainment and climate control systems.
To turn a feature on and off, just touch the
graphic with your finger. To get the best
performance from the touch-sensitive
controls:
• Make sure your hands are clean and
dry.
• Since the touchscreen operates based
on the touch of a finger, you may have
trouble using it if you are wearing
gloves.
• Use your bare finger to touch the center
of a touch-control graphic. Touching
off-center of the graphic may cause a
nearby control to turn on or off.
• Do not press hard on the controls. They
are sensitive to light touch.
• Metal and other conductive material
should be kept away from the surface
of the touchscreen as this may cause
electronic interference (i.e. control
activation). Depending on your vehicle and option
package, you may also have these controls
on your bezel:
•
Power: Turn the media (or climate
features) on or off.
• VOL: Increase or decrease the volume.
• Fan: Increase or decrease the fan
speed.
• Seek and Tune buttons: Use as you
normally would in media modes.
• Eject: Eject a CD.
• SOURCE: Touch the word repeatedly
to see all available media modes. The
screen does not change, but you see
the media changes in the lower left
status bar.
• SOUND: Touch the word to access the
Sound menu where you can make
adjustments to settings such as: Bass,
Treble, Midrange, Balance and Fade,
THX Deep Note Demo (if equipped),
DSP (if equipped), Occupancy Mode
(if equipped), and Speed
Compensated Volume settings.
• Hazard flasher: Press the button to turn
the hazard flashers on or off.
Cleaning the Touchscreen Display
Clean the display with a clean, soft cloth
such as one used for cleaning glasses. If
dirt or finger prints are still visible, apply a
small amount of alcohol to the cloth. Do
not pour or spray alcohol onto the display.
Do not use detergent or any type of solvent
to clean the display.
Support
The SYNC support team is available to
help you with any questions you aren't able
to answer on your own.
