Privacy Information
When a mobile phone is connected to
SYNC, SYNC creates a profile within your
vehicle that is linked to that mobile phone.
This profile is created in order to offer you
more mobile features and to operate more
efficiently. Among other things, this profile
may contain data about your mobile phone
book, text messages (read and unread),
and call history, including history of calls
when your mobile phone was not
connected to SYNC. In addition, if you
connect a media device, SYNC creates and
retains an index of media content
supported by SYNC. SYNC also records a
short development log of approximately
10 minutes of all recent SYNC activity. The
log profile and other SYNC data may be
used to improve SYNC and help diagnose
any problems that may occur. The mobile 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
mobile phone or media player is
connected. If you no longer plan to use
SYNC, or the vehicle, we recommend you
perform a Master Reset to erase all
information stored in SYNC.

as quiet as possible. Wind 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 "Listening"
appears before saying a command. Any
command spoken before this does not
register with the system.
• Speak naturally, without long pauses
between words.
• At any time you can interrupt the
system while it is speaking by pressing
the voice icon.

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
the touchscreen or voice commands. 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
• Redial
• 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.

Time
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
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.
The first thing you must do to use SYNC's
phone features is to pair your
Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone with
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.
3. Select Add Device.
4. Make sure that Bluetooth is set to On and that your mobile phone is in the
proper mode. Refer to your phone's
user guide if necessary.
