Speed-Restricted Features
Some features of this system may be too difficult to use while the vehicle
is in motion so they’re restricted from being modified unless the vehicle
is not moving. Some examples of these are listed below:
•Screens that are too crowded with information, such as Point of
Interest (POI) reviews and ratings, SIRIUSTravel Link™ sports
scores, movie times, ski conditions, etc.
•Any action that requires using a keyboard, such as entering a
navigation destination or editing information
•All lists are limited so the user can view fewer entries (e.g. phone
contacts, recent phone call entries)
Listed below are more specific features that can only be modified while
the vehicle is not moving:
Restricted features
Cellular Phone Pairing a Bluetooth phone
Adding phonebook contacts or uploading

PHONE FEATURES
Hands-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 cellular phone’s functionality. At a minimum, most cellular
phones with Bluetooth wireless technology support the following functions:
•Answering an incoming call
•Ending a call
•Using privacy mode
•Dial a number
•Redial
•Call waiting notification
•Caller ID
•Phonebook/Caller ID photos
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.

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.

into an area that you consider unsafe. Maps used by this system may be
inaccurate because of errors, changes in roads, traffic conditions or
driving conditions.
