2013 LINCOLN MKZ automatic transmission

PHONE
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
• 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, see your
phone's user manual and visit
www.SYNCMyRide.com,
www.SYNCMyRide.ca or
www.syncmaroute.ca. Pairing Your Phone for the First
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 cellular 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. Make sure that Bluetooth is set to On
and that your cellular phone is
in the proper mode. See your
phone's user guide if necessary.
