NAVIGATION (IF EQUIPPED)
Your navigation system is comprised of two
main features, destination mode and map
mode.
Map Mode
Map mode shows advanced viewing
comprised of 2D city maps, 3D landmarks
and 3D city models (when available). 2D city
maps show detailed outlines of buildings,
visible land use, landscape features, and
detailed railroad infrastructure for the most
essential cities around the globe.
3D landmarks appear as clear, visible objects
that are typically recognizable and have a
certain tourism value. 3D city models are complete 3D models of
entire city areas including navigable roads,
parks, rivers and rendered buildings. 3D
landmarks and city models appear in 3D map
mode only. Coverage of these varies and
improves with updated map releases. Select the zoom in icon to see a
closer view of the map.
Select the zoom out icon to see a
farther away view of the map.
You can adjust the view in preset increments.
You can also pinch to zoom in or out of the
map.
The information bar tells you the names of
streets, cities or landmarks as you hover over
them with the crosshair curser.
You can change your view of the map by
tapping on the location indicator icon on the
right hand side of the screen. You can
choose from the following options: Heading up (2D map)
This always
shows the direction of forward
travel to be upward on the screen.
This view is available for map
scales up to
3 mi (5 km). North up (2D map)
always shows
the northern direction to be
upward on the screen. 3D map mode
provides an
elevated perspective of the map.
Adjust this viewing angle and
rotate the map 180 degrees by
touching the map twice, and then dragging
your finger along the shaded bar with arrows
at the bottom of the map. Re-center the map by pressing this
icon whenever you scroll the map
away from your vehicle
’s current
location.

APPS
The system enables voice, steering wheel,
and touch screen control of SYNC 3 AppLink
enabled smartphone apps. When an app is
running through AppLink, you can control
main features of the app through voice
commands and steering wheel controls.
Note:
Available AppLink enabled apps will
vary by market.
Note: You must pair and connect your
smartphone via Bluetooth to SYNC 3 to
access AppLink. Note:
iPhone users need to connect the
phone to the USB port.
Note: For information on available apps,
supported smartphone devices and
troubleshooting tips please visit: Websites

www.syncmyride.ca
www.syncmaroute.ca
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
responsible for your app or its use of data. Note:
AppLink is a native SYNC system
feature. Accessing mobile apps through
AppLink is only possible when Android Auto
or Apple CarPlay are disabled. Some apps
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.
Note: In order to use an app with SYNC 3,
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
app on SYNC 3 as well.
Note: If a SYNC 3 AppLink compatible app
is not shown in the Apps Domain, make sure
the required app is running on the mobile
device.

AppLink Issues
Possible solution(s)
Possible cause(s)
Issue
Switch Bluetooth off and then on to reset it on your phone. If you are
in your vehicle, SYNC 3 should be able to automatically re-connect
to your phone if you press the "Phone" button.
There is a Bluetooth issue on some older
versions of the Android operating system
that may cause apps that were found on
your previous vehicle drive to not be
found again if you did not switch
Bluetooth off.
My Android phone is
connected, my app(s) are
running, I restarted them,
but I still cannot find any
apps.
Unplug the USB cable from the phone, wait a moment, and plug the
USB cable back in to the phone. After a few seconds, the app should
appear in SYNC 3's Mobile Apps Menu. If not, "Force Close" the
application and restart it.
You may need to reset the USB connec-
tion to SYNC 3.
My iPhone is connected,
my app is running, I
restarted the app but I still
cannot find it on SYNC 3.
Increase the Bluetooth volume of the device by using the device's
volume control buttons which are most often found on the side of the
device.
The Bluetooth volume on the phone may
be low.
I have an Android phone. I
found and started my
media app on SYNC 3, but
there is no sound or the
sound is very low.
Force close or uninstall the apps you do not want SYNC 3 to find. If
the app has a "Ford SYNC" setting, disable that setting in the app's
settings menu on the phone.
Some Android devices have a limited
number of Bluetooth ports that apps can
use to connect. If you have more AppLink
apps on your phone than the number of
available Bluetooth ports, you will not see
all of your apps listed in the SYNC 3
mobile apps menu.
I can only see some of the
AppLink apps running on
my phone listed in the
SYNC 3 Mobile Apps
Menu.
