Voice command issues
Possible solution
Possible cause
Issue
SYNC 3 applies the phonetic pronunciation rules of the selected
language to the names stored on your media player or USB flash
drive. It is able to make some exceptions for very popular artist names
(for example, U2) such that you can always use the English pronunci-
ation for these artists.
You may be saying the foreign names
using the currently selected language for
SYNC 3.
The SYNC 3 voice control
system is having trouble
recognizing foreign tracks,
artists, albums, genres and
playlist names from my
media player or USB flash
drive.
SYNC 3 uses a synthetically generated voice rather than pre-recorded
human voice.
SYNC 3 uses text-to-speech voice prompt
technology.
The system generates
voice prompts and the
pronunciation of some
words may not be accurate
for my language. SYNC 3 offers several new voice control features for a wide range of
languages. Dialing a contact name directly from the phonebook
without pre-recording (for example, “call John Smith
”) or selecting a
track, artist, album, genre or playlist directly from your media player
(for example, "play artist Madonna").

Personal Profiles
Possible cause and solution
Issue
Unlink and relink your keyfob in the Personal Profiles menu. You may
need to see your authorized dealer.
I lost a keyfob.
Keyfobs had been erased and reprogramed. This could happen if you
let dealership add a new keyfob to replace lost one.
I lost all profiles.
Master Reset had been performed without your acknowledgement. General
Possible solution
Possible cause
Issue
SYNC 3 only supports four languages in a single module for text
display, voice control and voice prompts. The country where you
bought your vehicle dictates the four languages based on the most
popular languages spoken. If the selected language is not available,
SYNC 3 remains in the current active language.
SYNC 3 does not support the currently
selected language for the instrument
cluster and information and entertainment
display.
The language selected for
the instrument cluster and
information and entertain-
ment display does not
match the SYNC 3
language (phone, USB,
Bluetooth audio, voice
control and voice prompts).
SYNC 3 offers several new voice control features for a wide range of
languages. Dialing a contact name directly from the phonebook
without pre-recording (for example, “call John Smith
”) or selecting a
track, artist, album, genre or playlist directly from your media player
(for example, "play artist Madonna").
