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 www.owner.ford.com (U.S.)
or www.SyncMyRide.ca (Canada). Register by following the
on-screen instructions. After registering, you can get information
about new software updates.
2. SYNC uses a wireless connection called
Bluetooth® to
communicate with your cell phone. Switch Bluetooth mode on
in your phone’s menu options. This lets your phone find SYNC.
If you need more details on setting up your phone with SYNC,
call the toll-free number, visit the website or your phone
manufacturer’s website. See the inside front cover of this guide
for details.
Note: The system may prompt you to :
• Set your cell phone as the primary
or favorite (the primary phone
receives messages and voicemail).
• Download your phone book
(a requirement to use the full
set of voice commands).
• Switch on 911 Assist
®.
Tips
• Make sure you accept the request
from SYNC to access your phone.
• To pair subsequent phones, please
refer to your SYNC Supplement.
• If you experience pairing problems,
try performing a clean pairing by:
1) deleting your services from
SYNC; 2) deleting your phone
pairing from SYNC; and 3)
repeating the Pairing Your Cell
Phone with SYNC process.

Rear View Camera*
This system provides
a video image of the
area behind the vehicle.
Switch on the ignition
and shift into reverse (R),
and the display appears
in the touchscreen.
The system uses green,
yellow and red guides
to alert you of your proximity to objects. The camera is on the
liftgate (near the handle) or on the trunk near the license
plate bracket.
Heated Exterior Mirrors*
The outside mirrors have
heating elements that
defrost or de-mist the
mirror glass. The feature
turns on automatically
when you switch on the
rear defrost.
Parking Aid*
The system warns you of obstacles
within a certain range of the rear
bumper area. When receiving
a detection warning, the audio
volume automatically lowers to
a predetermined level. After the
warning goes away, the audio
volume returns to the previous level.
Rear Sensing System*
The system sounds an audible
warning tone if there is an obstacle
near your vehicle’s rear bumpers. As the vehicle moves closer
to the obstacle, the rate of the warning tone increases in
frequency. The rear sensors are active only when the vehicle
is in reverse (R), and detect objects up to 72 inches (183
centimeters) away, with decreased coverage at the outer
corners of the bumper. See the Parking Aids chapter in your
Owner’s Manual for complete information on your vehicle’s
sensing systems.
Note: Visibility aids do not replace the need to watch where
the vehicle is moving. Refer to your Owner’s Manual for safety
information, more details and limitations.
