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. Have an authorized dealer
check your vehicle.
• 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 3 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 3. Speed-restricted Features
Some features of this system may be too
difficult to use while your vehicle is moving
so they are restricted from use unless your
vehicle is stationary.
•
Screens crowded with information, such
as Points of Interest reviews and ratings,
SiriusXM Travel Link sports information,
or ski condition search areas.
• Any action that requires you to use a
keyboard is restricted, such as entering
a navigation destination or editing
information.
• All lists are limited so the user can view
fewer entries (such as phone contacts or
recent phone call entries).
See the following table for more specific
examples.

Note: Make sure you have an active account
for the app that you have downloaded. Some
apps will work with no setup. Other apps will
want you to configure your personal settings
and personalize your experience by creating
stations or favorites. We recommend you do
this at home or outside of your vehicle.
Note: We encourage you to review the
smartphone app ’s terms of service and
privacy policies because Lincoln is not

AppLink is a native SYNC system
feature. Accessing mobile apps through
AppLink is only possible when Android Auto

may only be accessible in the car through
AppLink and others only through Android
Auto or Apple CarPlay. Please refer to the
Smartphone Connectivity information to
disable Android Auto or Apple CarPlay.

the app needs to be running in the
background of your phone. If you shut down
the app on your phone, it shuts down the

Enabling SYNC 3 Mobile Apps
In order to enable mobile apps, SYNC 3
requires user consent to send and receive
app authorization information and updates
using the data plan associated with the
connected device.
The connected device sends data to Lincoln
in the United States. The information is
encrypted and includes your VIN, SYNC 3
module number, odometer, usage statistics
and debugging information. We retain this
data for only as long as necessary to provide
this service, troubleshoot, and improve
products and services and to offer you
products and services that may interest you
where allowed by law. Note:
You must enable mobile apps for each
connected device the first time you select a
mobile app using the system.
Note: Lincoln reserves the right to limit
functionality or deactivate mobile apps at
any time.
Note: Standard data rates apply. Lincoln is
not responsible for any additional charges
you may receive from your service provider,
when your vehicle sends or receives data
through the connected device. This includes
any additional charges incurred due to
driving in areas when roaming out of a home
network.
You can enable and disable apps through
settings. See Settings (page 485).
App Permissions
The system organizes the app permissions
into groups. You can individually grant these
group permissions.You can change a
permission group status any time when not
driving, by using the settings menu. While
in the settings menu, you can also see the
data included in each group. When you launch an app using SYNC 3, the
system may ask you to grant certain
permissions, for example Vehicle information,
Driving characteristics, GPS and Speed,
and/or Push notifications. You can enable all
groups or none of them during the initial app
permissions prompts. The settings menu
offers individual group permission control.
Note:
You are only prompted to grant
permissions the first time you use an app
with SYNC 3.
Note: If you disable group permissions, apps
will still be enabled to work with SYNC 3
unless you deactivate All Apps in the settings
menu.
