911 Assist (If Equipped)
WARNINGS
Unless the 911 Assist setting is
set on before a crash, the system
will not dial for help, which could
delay response time, potentially
increasing the risk of serious injury or
death after a crash.
Do not wait for 911 Assist to
make an emergency call if you
can do it yourself. Dial emergency
services immediately to avoid delayed
response time, which could increase
the risk of serious injury or death after
a crash. If you do not hear 911 Assist
within five seconds of the crash, the
system or phone may be damaged or
non-functional.
Always place your phone in a
secure location in your vehicle so
it does not become a projectile or
damaged in a crash. Failure to do so
may cause serious injury to someone
or damage the phone, which could
prevent 911 Assist from working
properly.
Note: The SYNC 911 Assist feature
must be set on prior to the incident.
Note: Before setting this feature on,
make sure that you read the 911 Assist
Privacy Notice later in this section for
important information.
400
MyLincoln Touch™
Note:If any user turns 911 Assist on or
off, that setting applies for all paired
phones. If 911 Assist is turned off, either
a voice message plays or a display
message (or icon) comes on (or both)
when your vehicle is started after a
previously paired phone connects.
Note: Every phone operates differently.
While SYNC 911 Assist works with most
cellular phones, some may have
trouble using this feature.
If a crash deploys an airbag (excludes
knee airbags and rear inflatable safety
belts [if equipped]) or activates the
fuel pump shut-off, your
SYNC-equipped vehicle may be able
to contact emergency services by
dialing 911 through a paired and
connected Bluetooth-enabled phone.
You can learn more about the 911
Assist feature, visit
www.SYNCMyRide.com,
www.SYNCMyRide.ca or
www.syncmaroute.ca.
See Supplementary Restraints
System (page 42). Important
information regarding airbag
deployment is in this chapter.
See Roadside Emergencies (page

the fuel pump shut-off is in this
chapter. Setting 911 Assist On

calculation.
3. Choose from up to three different types of routes, and then select
Start Route.
