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, Vehicle Health
Report, and Traffic, Directions and Information.

ACCESSING AND ADJUSTING MODES THROUGH YOUR RIGHT
VEHICLE INFORMATION DISPLAY
The display is located on the right side of your instrument cluster. You
can use your steering wheel controls to view and make minor
adjustments to active modes without taking your hands off the wheel.
For example:
•In Entertainment mode, you can view what is now playing, change
the audio source (such as AM, FM and CD) and scroll through
memory presets.
•In Phone mode, you can accept or reject an incoming call, or make a
call by choosing from select menus within the Phone menu.
•If your vehicle is equipped with Navigation, you can view the current
route or cancel a route.
Note:If your vehicle is not equipped with Navigation, Compass appears
in the display instead of Navigation. If you press the right arrow to go
into the Compass menu, you can see the compass graphic. The compass
displays the direction in which the vehicle is traveling, not true direction.
(For example, if the vehicle is traveling west, the middle of the compass
graphic displays west; north displays to the left of west though its true
direction is to the right of west).

USING VOICE RECOGNITION
This system helps you control many features using voice commands. This
allows you to keep your hands on the wheel and focus on what is in
front of you. The system provides feedback through audible tones,
prompts, questions and spoken confirmations depending on the situation
and the chosen level of interaction (voice settings).
The system also asks short questions (confirmation prompts) when it is
not sure of your request or when there are multiple possible responses
to your request.
When using voice commands, words and icons may appear in the lower
left status bar indicating the status of the voice session (such as
Listening, Success, Failed, Paused or Try Again).
How to Use Voice Commands with Your System
Press the voice icon. After the tone, speak your command
clearly.

When HD Radio is on and you tune to a station broadcasting HD Radio
technology, you may notice the following indicators on your screen:
HD) logois grey when acquiring a digital station, and then
changes to orange when digital audio is playing. When this logo
is available, you may also see Title and Artist fields on-screen.

broadcasting multiple digital broadcasts. The highlighted numbers signify
available digital channels where new or different content is available.
HD1 signifies the main programming status and is available in analog and
digital broadcasts. Other multicast stations (HD2 through HD7) are only
available digitally.
TA Gallows you to save a song to download later when you are on an
acquired HD Radio station and the feature is on. To turn the feature on
and use it:
1. PressAMorFM>Options>TA Gbutton >On.
2. When you hear a song you like, touchTAG.
3. The system automatically saves the song’s information and transfers
it to your portable music player (if supported) when you connect it
to the system. The system automatically transfers the tag to your
player (if already connected) and a pop-up confirms the transfer.
4. When you access iTunes with your portable music player, the tags
appear to you as a reminder. The system allows you to tag up to
approximately 100 songs. For a list of devices that support tagging,
see www.SYNCMyRide.com, www.SYNCMyRide.ca or

preset. Touch and hold a memory preset slot until the sound returns.
There is a brief mute while the radio saves the station. Sound returns

saved station if your vehicle is outside the station’s reception area.
