ELECTRONIC SHIFT
4WD SYSTEM*
The electronic shift 4WD system
allows you to choose between 4x2,
4x4 AUTO*, 4x4 HIGH or 4x4 LOW.
2H (4x2) sends power to the rear
wheels only and should be used for
street and highway driving. Provides
optimal smoothness and fuel
economy at high speeds.
4A (4x4 AUTO)* provides electronic
control four-wheel drive with power
delivered to the front and rear wheels,
as required, for increased traction. This
is appropriate for all on-road driving
conditions, including dry road surfaces,
but is especially useful on wet
pavement, snow, dirt or gravel.
4H (4x4 HIGH) helps provide extra
traction while driving in snow or
on icy roads or off road situations.
This mode is not intended for use on
dry pavement.
4L (4x4 LOW) uses extra gearing to
provide maximum power to all four
wheels at reduced speeds. Intended
only for off-road applications such
as deep sand, steep grades or pulling
heavy objects. 4L (4x4 LOW) does not
engage while the vehicle is moving
above 3 mph (5 km/h); this is normal
and should be no reason for concern. 6 – 7Refer to Shifting to or from 4L (4x4
LOW) in the Four-Wheel Drive chapter
of your Owner’s Manual for details.
ELECTRONIC LOCKING
DIFFERENTIAL*
When engaged, the system
temporarily locks the rear axle,
allowing both rear wheels to turn at
the same speed. This function helps
to provide additional traction
as needed.
Note: Do not use this feature on
dry pavement or hard-surfaced roads.
To use:
4X4: Pull the 4WD control.
4X2: Turn the
control to ON.
The indicator light
continuously
displays in the cluster when the
ELD is active.
PRO TRAILER
BACKUP ASSIST*
The Pro Trailer Backup Assist control
knob helps assist you in backing
up your trailer. Turn the knob in the
direction you want the trailer to go
and the system will take over the
steering to get it there.
This system will not work until you set
it up. See the Pro Trailer Backup Assist
Quick Start Guide in your Owner's
Manual portfolio for the complete set
up and operation details. INTEGRATED TRAILER
BRAKE CONTROLLER*
The fully integrated trailer brake
controller assists in smooth and
effective trailer braking by powering
the trailer’s electric or electric-over
hydraulic brakes with a proportional
output based on the towing vehicle’s
brake pressure.
The
Gain setting is used to set the
trailer brake controller for specific
towing conditions and should be
changed as towing conditions change.
Changes to towing conditions include
trailer load, vehicle load, road
conditions and weather.
Use the Gain + and – adjustment
buttons to increase or decrease the
braking feature’s power output to
the trailer in 0.5 increments.
Adjust the Gain by:
1. Pressing the Gain+ or Gain–
buttons to increase or decrease
the setting to the desired
starting point. For example, a
Gain setting of 6.0 is a good
starting point for heavier loads.
2. Test the adjusted Gain setting
again after you make adjustments. When testing:
A. In a traffic-free environment,
tow the trailer on a dry,
level surface at a speed of
20-25 mph (30-40 km/h)
and squeeze the manual
control lever completely.
B. If the trailer wheels lock
up (the tires will squeal),
reduce the Gain setting. If
the trailer wheels turn freely,
increase the Gain setting.
C. The proper Gain setting will
be at the point just below
trailer wheel lock-up.
Note: If towing a heavier trailer,
trailer wheel lock-up may not be
attainable even with the maximum
Gain setting of 10.

and if you have questions, receive free customer support. For more information,
refer to your Owner’s Manual, visit the website or call the toll-free number. See
the inside front cover of this guide for details.
GETTING STARTED WITH YOUR SYNC SYSTEM
SYNC is a hands-free, voice recognition system used for entertainment, information
and communication. SYNC. SAY THE WORD.
BEFORE YOU GET STARTED
1.
Set up your owner account at owner.ford.com (U.S.) or SyncMyRide.ca (Canada).
Register by following the on-screen instructions. After registering, you can see what
services you may be eligible for.
2. SYNC uses a wireless connection called Bluetooth® to communicate with your
phone. Switch Bluetooth mode on in your phone’s menu options. This lets your phone
find SYNC. For more details on setting up your phone with SYNC, visit owner.ford.com
(U.S.) or SyncMyRide.ca (Canada), or your phone manufacturer’s website.
PAIRING YOUR PHONE WITH SYNC
Note: If you have SYNC 3* with the 8-inch touchscreen, use the pairing instructions
on page 13.
In order to use many of the features of SYNC, you must first pair and connect your
phone with SYNC. To pair your phone for the first time:
1. Make sure that your vehicle is in park (P), you switch on your vehicle's ignition and radio, and your device's Bluetooth feature is also switched on. This allows SYNC to
find your phone. See your device’s manual, if necessary.
2. Press the phone button
. When the display indicates that the system does not
have a paired phone, press OK.
3. When Find SYNC appears in the display, press OK.
4. When prompted on your phone’s display, enter the six-digit PIN provided by SYNC in the radio display.
5. The display indicates when the pairing is successful. USING YOUR PHONE WITH SYNC
Note: You can download your phone book to make phone calls with voice commands
by name.
MAKING A PHONE CALL
Use SYNC to make a phone call to anyone in your phone book by pressing the voice
button
. When prompted, give a voice command.
For example, you could say “Call Jake Smith at home”. When the system confirms the
number, say “Dial” to initiate the call.
Note: You can also make phone calls by pressing the voice button
. When
prompted, give the voice command “Dial” and then verbally say the phone number.
ANSWERING INCOMING CALLS
Whenever you have an incoming call, you will be able to see the name and number of
the person calling in your display. Press the phone button to answer an incoming call.
You can hang up at any time by pressing and holding the phone button
.
USING SYNC TO ACCESS DIGITAL MEDIA
SYNC has a media hub with multiple inputs allowing you to access personal media from
your digital devices. Plug in your USB media devices such as phones and MP3 players
and use SYNC to play all of your favorite music.
Note: SYNC indexes all of your music. The more music that is stored on your device, the
longer it takes SYNC to index. You can then use voice indexing to find a specific song,
artist, playlist or genre when using the USB port to hard-wire your media device.
