Using the Touch-Sensitive Controls
on Your System
To switch a feature on and off, just touch the
graphic with your finger. To get the best
performance from the touch-sensitive
controls:
• Do not press hard on the controls. They
are sensitive to light touch.
• Use your bare finger to touch the center
of a touch-control graphic. Touching
off-center of the graphic may affect
operation of a nearby control.
• Make sure your hands are clean and dry. •
Since the touchscreen operates based
on the touch of a finger, you may have
trouble using it if you are wearing gloves.
• Keep metal and other conductive
material away from the surface of the
touchscreen as this may cause electronic
interference (for example, inadvertently
switching on a feature other than the one
you meant to switch on).
Depending on your vehicle and option
package, you may also have these controls
on your bezel:
• Power: Switch the media or climate
features off and on.
• VOL:

Safety Information
WARNING
Driving while distracted can result in
loss of vehicle control, crash and injury.
We strongly recommend that you use
extreme caution when using any device that
may take your focus off the road. Your
primary responsibility is the safe operation
of your vehicle. We recommend against the
use of any hand-held device while driving and
encourage the use of voice-operated systems
when possible. Make sure you are aware of
all applicable local laws that may affect the
use of electronic devices while driving. •
Do not attempt to service or repair the
system. Contact an authorized dealer.
• Do not operate playing devices if the
power cords or cables are broken, split or
damaged. Place cords and cables out of
the way, so they do not interfere with the
operation of pedals, seats, compartments
or safe driving abilities.
• Do not leave playing devices in your
vehicle during extreme conditions as it
could cause them damage. See your
device's user guide for further
information.
• For your safety, some SYNC functions are
speed-dependent. Their use is limited to
when your vehicle is traveling at speeds
under 3 mph (5 km/h).
Make sure that you review your device's
manual before using it with SYNC.

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
system uses a log profile and other data 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 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 Vehicle Information Display
The display is located on the right side of your
instrument cluster. It allows you 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). Audio Sources and Memory Presets Use the OK and arrow buttons on the right
side of your steering wheel to scroll through
the available modes.
