WHAT IS 911 ASSIST
911 Assist is a SYNC system feature that cancall for help.
For more information, visitwww.owner.ford.com.
HOW DOES 911 ASSIST WORK
If a crash deploys an airbag, excluding kneeairbags and rear inflatable seatbelts, oractivates the fuel pump shut-off, your vehiclemay be able to contact emergency servicesby dialing 911 through a paired andconnected Bluetooth® enabled phone.
Not all crashes deploy an airbag or activatethe fuel pump shut-off. If a connected cellphone sustains damage or loses itsconnection to SYNC during a crash, SYNCsearches for and tries to connect to apreviously paired cell phone. SYNC thenattempts to call the emergency services.
Before making the call:
•SYNC provides about 10 seconds tocancel the call. If you fail to cancel thecall, SYNC attempts to dial 911.
•SYNC says the following, or a similarmessage: SYNC will attempt to call 911,to cancel the call, press Cancel on yourscreen or press and hold the phonebutton on your steering wheel.
If you do not cancel the call and SYNC makesa successful call a pre-recorded messageplays for the 911 operator. The occupants inyour vehicle are able to talk with theoperator. Be prepared to provide your name,phone number and location immediatelybecause not all 911 systems are capable ofreceiving this information electronically.
During an emergency call the systemtransmits vehicle data to the emergencyservice.
EMERGENCY CALL
