Pairing Your Phone with SYNC
In order to use many of the features of SYNC, such as making a phone call, receiving a  
text or using SYNC Services, you must first connect or pair your phone with SYNC.
To Pair Your Phone for the First Time 
 1.    Make sure that your vehicle is in park (P) or neutral (N) with the parking brake applied 
(with manual transmission only), then switch your ignition and radio on.
  2.    Press the phone button 
. When the display indicates No Phone Found, press OK.
  3. When  Add Bluetooth Device? appears in the display, press OK. 
  4.    When  Find SYNC appears in the display, press OK. When prompted on your  
phone’s display, enter the PIN provided by SYNC into your phone.
  5.  The display will indicate when the pairing is successful.
The System May Prompt You to
  »    Set your phone as the primary/favorite (the primary phone will receive messages  
and voicemail).
  »  Download your phone book (this is required to use the full set of voice commands).
  »  Switch on 911 Assist
®.
 TIPS 
  »  Make sure you accept the request from SYNC to access your phone.
  »    To pair subsequent phones, please refer to Pairing Subsequent Phones in the SYNC 
chapter of your Owner’s Manual.

the Pairing Your Phone with SYNC process.
Why Do You Need a SYNC 
Owner Account? 
A SYNC owner account is required for 
Vehicle Health Report activation and the 
ability to view your reports online. You’ll 
also be able to take advantage of all of 
the SYNC Services* and personalization 
features, such as saving your favorites and 
points of interest. You’ll receive the latest 
software updates that add new places, 
directions and information; and if you have 
questions, you’ll get free customer support. 
 NOTE  Your SYNC system may offer 
advanced features such as SYNC Services, 
AppLink
TM and Vehicle Health Reports. 
Some services may not be available in your 
area. Visit the website or call the toll-free 
number for more information. See the inside 
front cover of this guide for details.
Using Your Phone  
with SYNC
 NOTE  You must download your phone 
book to make phone calls with voice 
commands by name. 
Making a Phone Call 
Use SYNC to make a phone call to anyone 
in your phone book by pressing the voice 
button 
. When prompted, say a  
voice command.
For example, you could say “Call Jake 
Smith at home”. When the system  
confirms the number, say “Dial” again  
to initiate the call.
 NOTE  You can also make phone calls by 
pressing the voice button 
 and when 
prompted, give the voice command “Dial”, 
then verbally say the phone number.
Answering Incoming Calls 
Whenever you have an incoming call, you 
will be able to see the name and number of 
the person calling in the display. Press the  phone button 
 to answer an incoming 
call. You can hang up at any time by 
pressing and holding the phone button 
.
Do Not Disturb Mode
This feature blocks incoming calls and text 
messages and saves them for later. You still 
have access to outgoing calls when this 
feature is active. Say the voice command 
“Do not disturb on” to enable and “Do not 
disturb off” to disable.
Using SYNC to  
Access Digital Media
Plug in your USB media devices such as 
phones and MP3 players, and use SYNC  
to play all of your favorite music.
Using Voice Commands to Play Music
  1.    Plug your media player into your  
USB port.
  2.    Press the voice button 
 . When 
prompted, say “USB”, then follow  
up by saying a voice command.

SYNC. Say the Word.
Before You Get Started

at  SyncMyRide.com  (U.S.)  
or  SyncMyRide.ca (Canada).

setting up your phone with SYNC, 
visit SyncMyRide.com (U.S.) or 
SyncMyRide.ca (Canada) or your 
phone manufacturer’s website.
GETTING STARTED   
WITH YOUR SYNC
® SYSTEM
*if equipped 

Remote Start*
Remote start allows you to start the engine from outside your 
vehicle using your remote transmitter. To start, press  and then 
press  twice within three seconds. Once inside, apply the brake 
while pressing the ENGINE START/STOP button. Shift into drive 
(D) and go. If you have the integrated keyhead transmitter, insert 
the key into the ignition and switch on the ignition as you normally 
would before driving. To switch the engine off from outside the 
vehicle after using your remote start, press 
 once.
Intelligent Access* 
 NOTE  Your intelligent access transmitter must be within 3 feet  
(1 meter) of the vehicle for intelligent access to function properly.
This system operates the power locks. To unlock the driver’s door, 
pull the front exterior door handle. To lock the doors, press the 
sensor on top of the door handles. To unlock and open the trunk, 
press the exterior trunk release button near the license plate. The 
intelligent access transmitter also contains a mechanical key 
blade, which can be used to unlock the driver’s door, if necessary.
You must have a valid transmitter inside the vehicle to switch on 
the ignition and start the engine. If you are unable to start your 
vehicle using the push-button start, do the following:
 1.   Place the transmitter in the backup slot in the center console.
2.   With the transmitter in this position, press the brake pedal, then 
the ENGINE START/STOP button to switch the ignition on and 
start your vehicle.
Auto Start-Stop* 
The system helps reduce fuel consumption. When you stop at a 
light or experience prolonged stops in heavy traffic, the engine will 
stop automatically. When you take your foot from the brake pedal 
and press on the accelerator, the engine will restart automatically.  
A green Auto Start-Stop indicator light within the instrument 
cluster will display to indicate when the engine stop occurs.  
The system turns on automatically with every ignition cycle.
To switch this feature off, press the AUTO START-STOP button, 
located on the center console, near the gearshift lever. The button 
will light. Press the button again to restart.
Active Park Assist*
The active park assist system can detect an available parallel 
parking space and automatically steer the vehicle into that space 
(hands-free). The system instructs you with visual and audible 
instructions on when you need to apply the brake, accelerate and 
shift gears in order to safely park the vehicle. To initiate active 
park assist, press the 
 button located on the center console, 
near the gear shifter lever. To stop the parking procedure, grab the 
steering wheel or press the control again. For complete information, 
refer to the Parking Aids chapter of your Owner’s Manual. 
 
 NOTE  The driver is always responsible for controlling the vehicle, 
supervising the system and intervening, if required.
