Remote Control
Note:The remote control incorporates an infrared sensor that relays
signals from the remote control to be controlled simply by pointing its
remote control at the remote sensor eye. This provides control of auxiliary
equipment such as a video DVD player. The infrared sensor cannot relay
signals from any other manufacturer’s remote control to its respective
component connected to the AUX input, such as a DVD player. In this
case, you must use the remote control supplied with the device.
Installing the Battery
Before attempting to operate your remote control, install the batteries as
follows:
1. Turn the remote control face down. Press down on the ridged area of
the battery cover and slide it off.
2. Install two AAA batteries. Make sure that proper polarity (+ or -) is
observed.
3. Slide the cover back until it clicks.
Note:Always make sure that the batteries are inserted with the positive
and negative terminals in the correct direction as shown in the battery
compartment.
Note:Different types of batteries have different characteristics. Do not
mix different types.
Note:Do not mix old and new batteries. Mixing old and new batteries can
shorten battery life and/or cause chemical leaks from the old batteries.
Note:When batteries fail to function, replace them immediately.
Note:Keep the batteries out of the reach of children. Should the
batteries be swallowed, immediately consult a doctor. Also, when
disposing of used batteries, please comply with governmental regulations
or environmental public institution rules that apply in your country/area.
Note:Remove the batteries if the remote control is not used for a month
or longer.

DVD Basics
To get the most use out of each DVD, make sure you read this section
completely.
Regional Coding
Both the DVD player and disc are coded by region. These regional codes
must match in order for the disc to play. If the codes do not match, the
disc does not play by default. The system is preset to the region code
designated for your area by the DVD Copy Control Association. Other
regions may not be played in this system.
Loading and Playing Discs
When you press the POWER button the system turns on in DVD mode.
Place the disc about halfway into the disc compartment slot, with the
disc’s label facing the rear of the vehicle. player, do NOT insert the disc
at an angle. The disc must be inserted straight into the player.
The disc loads automatically and begin to play. (Some discs may start at
the root menu, where play must be selected to start movie.)
Depending on the disk and playback location on the disc, the icon may
be displayed in the upper-left corner of the screen indicating that still
playback is not possible.
Notes
•To keep a disc clean, do not touch its surface. Handle the disc by its
edge.
•Keep your discs in their cases or disc magazines when not in use.
Also, do not subject disc to heat/high temperature. Avoid leaving
them in a parked vehicle or on a dashboard/rear tray.
•
Do not attach labels, or use discs with sticky ink/residue. Such discs may
stop spinning when used, causing a malfunction, or may ruin the disc.
•Do not use any discs with labels or stickers attached. The following
malfunctions may result from using such discs:
•Inability to eject a disc (due to a label or sticker peeling off and
jamming the eject mechanism).
•Inability to read audio data correctly (i.e., playback skipping, or no
playback) due to heat shrinking of a sticker or label causing a disc to
warp.
•Before playing, clean the discs with a commercially available cleaning
cloth. Wipe each disc from the center out. Do not use solvents such as
benzene, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or antistatic spray
intended for analog discs.
•Use only normal, round discs. If you insert irregular, non-round, shaped
discs they may jam in the DVD player or not play properly.

When using SYNC, do not:
•Operate playing devices if the power cords or cables are broken, split
or damaged. Carefully place cords and cables where they cannot be
stepped on or interfere with the operation of pedals, seats,
compartments or safe driving abilities.
•Leave playing devices in the vehicle during extreme conditions as it
could cause them damage. See your device’s user guide for further
information.
•Attempt to service or repair the system. See your authorized dealer.
Privacy Information
When a cellular phone is connected to SYNC, the system creates 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 the system. In addition, if you connect a media device, the
system creates and retains an index of supported media content. The
system also records a short development log of approximately
10 minutes of all recent system activity. The log profile and other system
data may be used to improve the system and help diagnose any problems
that may occur.
The cellular profile, media device index, and development log remain in
the vehicle unless you delete them and are generally accessible only in
the vehicle when the cellular phone or media player is connected. If you
no longer plan to use the system or the vehicle, we recommend you
perform a Master Reset to erase all stored information.
System data cannot be accessed without special equipment and access to
the vehicle’s SYNC module. Ford Motor Company and Ford of Canada do
not access the system data 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).
