sounds and the screen displays a pop-up with the

your destination:
Destination mode lets you key in a specific
address or use a variety of search methods to
locate where you want to go.
Map mode shows advanced viewing that
includes 2-D city maps, 3-D landmarks and 3-D
city models (when available).
Refer to your SYNC Supplement for

Set a Destination
Press Destination on your touchscreen and then
press Search. Enter a street address, intersection,
city or a point of interest (POI).
After you choose your destination, press Start Route.
The system uses a variety of screens and visible
prompts to guide you to your destination.
During your route, you can press the maneuver
arrow icon on the map if you want the system to
repeat the previous route guidance instructions. The navigation map shows your estimated time of
arrival, remaining travel time and the distance to
your destination.
Navigation Menu
While you are on your route, you can change your
touchscreen view. To change the view, touch Menu
on the bottom of the screen, and then select Screen
View to choose from any of the following:
Full Map.
Highway Exit Info displays POI icons, including
restaurants, ATMs, etc., as they pertain to each
exit. You can select a POI as a waypoint,
if you wish.
Turn List shows all of the available turns on your
current route.
Traffic List displays SiriusXM Traffic and
Travel Link* information. If traffic conditions
change to cause a major delay on the originally
selected route, then SYNC 3 provides an
automatic re-route.
Note: Minor traffic changes do not prompt a re-route.

to access climate control features, including the

your media sources.
Set Your Radio Presets
Tune to the station and then press and hold one
of the memory preset buttons. The audio mutes
briefly while the system saves the station, and
then the audio returns.
Two preset banks are available for AM and three
banks for FM. To access additional presets, tap
the preset button. The indicator on the preset
button shows which bank of presets you are
currently viewing.
Bring in Your Own Music
Plug your device, such as a phone or media player,
into a USB port, select SOURCE and then choose

music to begin listening. You can even create
random playlists by using the Shuffle function.
The USB port begins charging your device as soon
as you plug it in.
