DATA RECORDING
Service Data Recording
Service data recorders in your vehicle
are capable of collecting and storing
diagnostic information about your
vehicle. This potentially includes
information about the performance
or status of various systems and
modules in the vehicle, such as engine,
throttle, steering or brake systems. In
order to properly diagnose and service
your vehicle, Ford Motor Company,
Ford of Canada, and service and repair
facilities may access or share among
them vehicle diagnostic information
received through a direct connection
to your vehicle when diagnosing or
servicing your vehicle. Additionally,
when your vehicle is in for service or
repair, Ford Motor Company, Ford of
Canada, and service and repair
facilities may access or share among
them data for vehicle improvement
purposes. For U.S. only (if equipped),
if you choose to use the SYNC Vehicle

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.
Note:
Including to the extent that
any law pertaining to Event Data
Recorders applies to SYNC or its
features, please note the following:
Once 911 Assist (if equipped) is
enabled (set ON), 911 Assist may,
through any paired and connected
cell phone, disclose to emergency
services that the vehicle has been in
a crash involving the deployment of
an airbag or, in certain vehicles, the
activation of the fuel pump shut-off.
Certain versions or updates to 911
Assist may also be capable of being
used to electronically or verbally
provide to 911 operators the vehicle
location (such as latitude and
longitude), and/or other details
about the vehicle or crash or
personal information about the
occupants to assist 911 operators to
provide the most appropriate
emergency services. If you do not
want to disclose this information, do
not activate the 911 Assist feature.
See MyLincoln Touch ™ (page 343).
Additionally, when you connect to
Traffic, Directions and Information
(if equipped, U.S. only), the service
uses GPS technology and
advanced vehicle sensors to
collect the vehicle ’s current
location, travel direction, and
speed (“ vehicle travel
information ”), only to help provide you with the directions, traffic
reports, or business searches that
you request. If you do not want
Ford or its vendors to receive this
information, do not activate the
service. Ford Motor Company and
the vendors it uses to provide you
with this information do not store
your vehicle travel information.
For more information, see Traffic,
Directions and Information, Terms
and Conditions.
See
MyLincoln
Touch ™ (page 343).

MKZ (CC9) Introduction

This feature allows you to start your
vehicle from outside the vehicle. The
transmitter has an extended operating
range.
Vehicles with automatic climate
control can be configured to operate
when the vehicle is remote started.
See Climate Control (page 138). A
manual climate control system will
run at the setting it was set to when
you switched the vehicle off.
Many states and provinces have
restrictions for the use of remote start.
Check your local and state or
provincial laws for specific
requirements regarding remote start
systems.
The remote start system will not work
if:
• the ignition is on
• the alarm system is triggered
• you disable the feature
• the hood is open
• the transmission is not in
P
• the vehicle battery voltage is too
low
• the service engine soon light is on.
