ABOUT 911 ASSIST
911 Assist is a SYNC system feature that
can call for help if you’re in an accident. If
a crash deploys an airbag (excluding knee
airbags and rear inflatable seatbelts [if
equipped]) or activates the fuel pump
shut-off, your SYNC-equipped vehicle may
be able to contact emergency services by
dialing 911 through a paired and connected
Bluetooth-enabled phone. You can learn
more about the 911 Assist feature, by
visiting:
Website
www.owner.ford.com
www.syncmyride.ca
www.syncmaroute.ca
Not all crashes will deploy an airbag or
activate the fuel pump shut-off (the
triggers for 911 Assist). If a connected cell
phone sustains damage or loses its
connection to SYNC during a crash, SYNC
will search for and try to connect to a
previously paired cell phone; SYNC will
then attempt to call the emergency
services.
Before making the call:
• SYNC provides a short window of time
(about 10 seconds) to cancel the call.
If you fail to cancel the call, SYNC
attempts to dial 911.
• SYNC says the following, or a similar
message: "SYNC will attempt to call
911, to cancel the call, press Cancel on
your screen or press and hold the
phone button on your steering wheel." If you do not cancel the call, and SYNC
makes a successful call, a pre-recorded
message plays for the 911 operator, and
then the occupant(s) in your vehicle is able
to talk with the operator. Be prepared to
provide your name, phone number and
location immediately, because not all 911
systems are capable of receiving this
information electronically.
During an emergency call, the system
transmits vehicle data to the emergency
service. See Data Recording (page 9).
EMERGENCY CALL
REQUIREMENTS WARNING:
Do not wait for 911
Assist to make an emergency call if you
can do it yourself. Dial emergency
services immediately to avoid delayed
response time which could increase the
risk of serious injury or death after a
crash. If you do not hear 911 Assist within
five seconds of the crash, the system or
phone may be damaged or
non-functional. WARNING:
Always place your
phone in a secure location in your vehicle
so it does not become a projectile or get
damaged in a crash. Failure to do so may
cause serious injury to someone or
damage the phone which could prevent
911 Assist from working properly. WARNING:
Unless the 911 Assist
setting is set on before a crash, the
system will not dial for help which could
delay response time, potentially
increasing the risk of serious injury or
death after a crash.

ANTI-THEFT ALARM
Alarm System (If Equipped)
Your vehicle may have one of the following
alarm systems:
• Perimeter Alarm.
• Anti-Theft Alarm with Interior and
Inclination Sensors.
Perimeter Alarm
The perimeter alarm is a deterrent against
unauthorized access to your vehicle
through the doors, luggage compartment
and the hood. Interior Sensors
The interior sensors are in the overhead
console.
When you lock your vehicle and arm the
alarm, the sensors are designed to detect
any movement inside your vehicle.
Note:
Do not cover the interior sensors.
Inclination Sensors
When you lock your vehicle and arm the
alarm, the sensors are designed to detect
an attempt to raise your vehicle, for
example to remove a wheel or to tow it
away.
Triggering the Alarm
Once armed, the alarm is triggered in any
of the following ways:
• If someone opens a door, the liftgate
or the hood without a valid key or
remote control.
• If you switch the ignition on without a
valid key.
• If the interior sensors detect movement
within your vehicle.
If the alarm is triggered, the alarm horn will
sound for 30 seconds and the hazard
warning flashers will flash for five minutes.
Any further attempts to carry out one of
the above will trigger the alarm again.
Full Guard and Reduced Guard
Full Guard
Full guard is the standard setting.
In full guard, the interior sensors are on
when you arm the alarm.
Note: Do not arm the alarm with full guard
if passengers, animals or other moving
objects are inside your vehicle.
