Privacy Information
When you connect a cellular phone
to SYNC, the system creates a profile
within your vehicle that links to that
cellular phone. This profile helps in
offering you more cellular features
and operating 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
your vehicle unless you delete them
and are generally accessible only in
your vehicle when the cellular phone
or media player is connected. If you
no longer plan to use the system or
your vehicle, we recommend you
perform a Master Reset to erase all
stored information.
System data cannot be accessed
without special equipment and access
to your 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

Wind noise from open windows

Listening appears before saying a
command. Any command spoken
before this does not register with
the system.
• Speak naturally, without long pauses between words.
• At any time, you can interrupt the system while it is speaking by
pressing the voice icon.

to standard interaction that uses
candidate lists and confirmation
prompts as these provide the highest
level of guidance and feedback.

provides detailed interaction and
guidance while the advanced
mode has less audible interaction
and more tone prompts.
