2013 FORD ESCAPE manual transmission

The system creates candidate lists when
it has the same confidence level of several
options based on your voice command.
When turned on, you may be prompted
with as many as four possibilities for
clarification.For example, say "Say 1 after the tone to
call John Doe at home. Say 2 after the tone
to call Johnny Doe on mobile. Say 3 after
the tone to call Jane Doe at home." You
could also say "Say 1 after the tone to play
John Doe, Say 2 after the tone to play
Johnny Doe."

USING SYNC® WITH YOUR
PHONE
Hands-free calling is one of the main
features of SYNC. While the system
supports a variety of features, many are
dependent on your mobile phone's
functionality. At a minimum, most mobile
phones with Bluetooth wireless technology
support the following functions:
• Answering an incoming call
• Ending a call
• Using privacy mode
• Dialing a number
• Redialing
• Call waiting notification
• Caller ID Other features such as text messaging
using Bluetooth and automatic phonebook
download are phone-dependent features.
To check your phone's compatibility, refer
to your phone's user manual and visit
www.SYNCMyRide.com or
www.syncmaroute.ca.
Pairing a Phone for the First Time
Note:
SYNC can support downloading up
to approximately 2000 entries per
Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone.
Note: Make sure the vehicle ignition and
radio are turned on and the transmission is
in position P.
Note: To scroll through the menus, press
the up and down arrows on your audio
system.
Wirelessly pairing your phone with SYNC
allows you to make and receive hands-free
calls.

SYNC®

Note: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.
Note: 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.
Note: 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.
Note: 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.
PHONE
Hand's-free calling is one of the main
features of SYNC. Once your phone is
paired, you can access many options using

phone's functionality.
At a minimum, most mobile phones with
Bluetooth wireless technology support the
following functions:
• Answering an incoming call
• Ending a call
• Using privacy mode
• Dialing a number
• Redial
• Call waiting notification
• Caller ID Other features such as text messaging

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 that may take their focus
off the road. Your primary responsibility is

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.
The first thing you must do to use SYNC's
phone features is to pair your

SYNC. This allows you to use your phone
in a hands-free manner.
Note: Make sure the vehicle ignition and
radio are turned on and that the
transmission is in position P.
1. Touch Add Phone in the upper left corner of the touchscreen.
2. When prompted, select Add.
