Your voice system allows you to change audio sources with a simple
voice command. For example, if you are listening to music on a USB
device, then want to switch to a satellite radio channel, simply press the
voice button on the steering wheel controls and say the name of the
Sirius station (such as, “the Highway”). The following voice commands
are available at the top level of the voice session no matter which
current audio source you are listening to (such as a USB device or Sirius
satellite radio).Note:This is only available when your MyFord Touch
system language is set to North American English.
“AM <530 - 1710>” “FM <87.9 – 107.9>”
“<530 - 1710>” “<87.9 – 107.9>”
“Sirius <0-223>”
*“”*
“Play [genre] ”**“Play [playlist] ”**
“Play [artist] ”**“Play [song] ”**
“Play [album] ”**“Play by ”
“Play ” “Sports games”
*
*
This command is only usable if you have an active subscription to Sirius
satellite radio.
**The commands that have [ ] around the word means that the word is
optional. For example, if you say, “Play Metallica”, this is the same as the
voice command, “Play [artist] ”.

To change between AM and FM presets, just touch the AMor
FM tab.
