Introduction

Warning symbols on your vehicle

When you see this symbol, it is imperative that you consult the relevant section of this guide before touching or attempting adjustment of any kind.

Protecting the environment

We must all play our part in protecting the environment. Correct vehicle usage and the authorized disposal of waste, cleaning and lubrication materials are significant steps towards this aim. Information in this respect is highlighted in this guide with the tree symbol.

CALIFORNIA Proposition 65 Warning

WARNING: Engine exhaust, some of its constituents, and

certain vehicle components contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. In addition, certain fluids contained in vehicles and certain products of component wear contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

PERCHLORATE MATERIAL

Certain components of this vehicle such as airbag modules, seat belt pretensioners, and button cell batteries may contain Perchlorate Material – Special handling may apply for service or vehicle end of life disposal. See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.

BREAKING-IN YOUR VEHICLE

Your vehicle does not need an extensive break-in. Try not to drive continuously at the same speed for the first 1,000 miles (1,600 km) of new vehicle operation. Vary your speed frequently in order to give the moving parts a chance to break in.

Do not add friction modifier compounds or special break-in oils since these additives may prevent piston ring seating. See Engine oil in the Maintenance and Specifications chapter for more information on oil usage.

Introduction

SPECIAL NOTICES

New Vehicle Limited Warranty

For a detailed description of what is covered and what is not covered by your vehicle’s New Vehicle Limited Warranty, refer to the Warranty Guide that is provided to you along with your Owner’s Guide.

Special instructions

For your added safety, your vehicle is fitted with sophisticated electronic controls.

WARNING: Please read the section Airbag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) in the Seating and Safety Restraints

chapter. Failure to follow the specific warnings and instructions could result in personal injury.

WARNING: Front seat mounted rear-facing child or infant seats should NEVER be placed in front of an active passenger airbag.

DATA RECORDING

Service Data Recording

Service data recorders in your vehicle are capable of collecting and storing diagnostic information about your vehicle. This potentially includes information about the performance or status of various systems and modules in the vehicle, such as engine, throttle, steering or brake systems. In order to properly diagnose and service your vehicle, Ford Motor Company, Ford of Canada, and service and repair facilities may access or share among them vehicle diagnostic information received through a direct connection to your vehicle when diagnosing or servicing your vehicle. For U.S. only (if equipped), if you choose to use the SYNC威 Vehicle Health Report, you consent that certain diagnostic information may also be accessed electronically by Ford Motor Company and Ford authorized service facilities, and that the diagnostic information may be used for any purpose. See your SYNC威 supplement for more information.

Event Data Recording

This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an airbag deployment or hitting a

2012 Focus (foc) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)

Page 7

Introduction

road obstacle; this data will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:

• How various systems in your vehicle were operating;

• Whether or not the driver and passenger seatbelts were

buckled/fastened;

• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or the brake pedal; and

• How fast the vehicle was travelling; and

• Where the driver was positioning the steering wheel.

This data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur.

Note: EDR data is recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data is recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data or information (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) is recorded (see limitations regarding 911 Assist and Traffic, directions and Information privacy below). However, parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash investigation.

To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have such special equipment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR. Ford Motor Company and Ford of Canada do not access event data recorder information without obtaining consent, unless pursuant to court order or where required by law enforcement, other government authorities or other third parties acting with lawful authority. Other parties may seek to access the information independently of Ford Motor Company and Ford of Canada.

Note: Including to the extent that any law pertaining to Event Data Recorders applies to SYNC威 or its features, please note the following: Once 911 Assist (if equipped) is enabled (set ON), 911 Assist may, through any paired and connected cell phone, disclose to emergency services that the vehicle has been in a crash

2012 Focus (foc) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)

Page 8

Introduction

involving the deployment of an airbag or, in certain vehicles, the activation of the fuel pump shut-off. Certain versions or updates to 911 Assist may also be capable of being used to electronically or verbally provide to 911 operators the vehicle location (such as latitude and longitude), and/or other details about the vehicle or crash or personal information about the occupants to assist 911 operators to provide the most appropriate emergency services. If you do not want to disclose this information, do not activate the 911 Assist feature. See your SYNC威 supplement for more information.

Additionally, when you connect to Traffic, Directions and Information (if equipped, U.S. only) the service uses GPS technology and advanced vehicle sensors to collect the vehicle’s current location, travel direction, and speed (“vehicle travel information”) only to help provide you with the directions, traffic reports, or business searches your request. If you do not want Ford or its vendors to receive this information, do not activate the service. Ford Motor Company and the vendors it uses to provide you with this information do not store your vehicle travel information. For more information, see Traffic, Directions and Information, Terms and Conditions. See your SYNC威 supplement for more information.

CELL PHONE USE

The use of Mobile Communications Equipment has become increasingly important in the conduct of business and personal affairs. However, drivers must not compromise their own or others’ safety when using such equipment. Mobile Communications can enhance personal safety and security when appropriately used, particularly in emergency situations. Safety must be paramount when using mobile communications equipment to avoid negating these benefits.

Mobile Communication Equipment includes, but is not limited to, cellular phones, pagers, portable email devices, text messaging devices and portable two-way radios.

WARNING: Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle

control, accident and injury. Ford strongly recommends that you use extreme caution when using any device or feature 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 handheld device while driving and that you comply with all applicable laws.

Warning lights and gauges can alert you to a vehicle condition that may become serious enough to cause expensive repairs. A warning light may illuminate when a problem exists with one of your vehicle’s functions. Many lights will illuminate when you start your vehicle to make sure they work. If any light remains on after starting the vehicle, refer to the respective system warning light for additional information.

Note: Some warning indicators are reconfigurable telltales (RTT). These indicators display in the message center and function the same as a warning light but do not display on startup.

Warning and status messages will also display in the message center and may be accompanied by various warning lights. See System warning and status messages later in this chapter for more information.

Service engine soon: The service engine soon indicator light

illuminates when the ignition is first turned to the on position to check the bulb and to indicate whether the vehicle is ready for Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) testing. Normally, the “service engine soon” light will stay on until the engine is cranked, then turn itself off if no malfunctions are present. However, if after 15 seconds the “service engine soon” light blinks eight times, it means that the vehicle is not ready for I/M testing. See the Readiness for Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) testing in the Maintenance and Specifications chapter.

2012 Focus (foc) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)

Page 13

Instrument Cluster

Solid illumination after the engine is started indicates the on-board diagnostics system (OBD-II) has detected a malfunction. Refer to On-board diagnostics (OBD-II) in the Maintenance and Specifications chapter. If the light is blinking, engine misfire is occurring which could damage your catalytic converter. Drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy acceleration and deceleration) and have your vehicle serviced immediately by your authorized dealer.

WARNING: Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust

temperatures could damage the catalytic converter, the fuel system, interior floor coverings or other vehicle components, possibly causing a fire.

Brake system warning light (standard and metric shown): To

confirm the brake system warning light is functional, it will momentarily illuminate when the ignition is turned to the on position when the engine is not running, or in a position between on and start, or by applying the parking brake when the ignition is turned to the on position.

If the brake system warning light does not illuminate at this time, seek service immediately from your authorized dealer. Illumination after releasing the parking brake indicates low brake fluid level and the brake system should be inspected immediately by your authorized dealer.

WARNING: Driving a vehicle with the brake system warning

light on is dangerous. A significant decrease in braking performance may occur. It will take you longer to stop the vehicle. Have the vehicle checked by your authorized dealer. Driving extended distances with the parking brake engaged can cause brake failure and the risk of personal injury.

2012 Focus (foc) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)

AdvanceTrac威 off light:

Illuminates when AdvanceTrac威/Traction control has been disabled by the driver. Refer to the Driving chapter for more information.

Low tire pressure warning:

Illuminates when your tire pressure is low. If the light remains on at start up or while driving, the tire pressure should be checked. Refer to Inflating your tires in the Tires, Wheels and Loading chapter. When the ignition is first turned to on, the light will illuminate for 3 seconds to ensure the bulb is working. If the light does not turn on or begins to flash, contact your authorized dealer as soon as possible. For more information on this system, refer to Tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) in the Tires, Wheels and Loading chapter.

Low fuel: Illuminates when the fuel level in the fuel tank is at or near empty. Refer to Fuel gauge in this chapter.

Speed control (if equipped) (RTT): Illuminates when the speed

control is activated. Turns off when the speed control system is deactivated.

Upshift (manual transmission) (RTT): To maximize fuel economy,

this light illuminates when the manual transmission should be shifted to the next highest gear. Refer to the Driving chapter for more information.

GENERAL AUDIO INFORMATION

Radio frequencies:

AM and FM frequencies are established by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC). Those frequencies are:

AM: 530, 540–1700, 1710 kHz FM: 87.7, 87.9–107.7, 107.9 MHz

Radio reception factors:

There are three factors that can affect radio reception:

• Distance/strength: The further you travel from an FM station, the weaker the signal and the weaker the reception.

• Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, power lines, electric fences, traffic lights and thunderstorms can interfere with your reception.

• Station overload: When you pass a broadcast tower, a stronger signal may overtake a weaker one and play while the weak station frequency is displayed.

CD/CD player care

Do:

• Handle discs by their edges only. (Never touch the playing surface).

• Inspect discs before playing.

• Clean only with an approved CD

cleaner.

• Wipe discs from the center out.

Don’t:

• Expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources for extended periods of time.

• Clean using a circular motion.

2012 Focus (foc) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)

Page 54

Entertainment Systems

CD units are designed to play commercially pressed 4.75 in (12 cm) audio compact discs only. Due to technical incompatibility, certain recordable and re-recordable compact discs may not function correctly when used in Ford CD players.

Do not use any irregular shaped CDs or discs with a scratch protection film attached.

CDs with homemade paper (adhesive) labels should not be inserted into the CD player as the label may peel and cause the CD to become jammed. It is recommended that homemade CDs be identified with permanent felt tip marker rather than adhesive labels. Ballpoint pens may damage CDs. Please contact your authorized dealer for further information.

Audio system warranty and service

Refer to the Warranty Guide/Customer Information Guide for audio system warranty information. If service is necessary, see your dealer or qualified technician.

Satellite radio information (if equipped)

Satellite radio channels: SIRIUS威 broadcasts a variety of music, news, sports, weather, traffic and entertainment satellite radio channels. For more information and a complete list of SIRIUS威 satellite radio channels, visit www.sirius.com in the United States, www.siriuscanada.ca in Canada, or call SIRIUS威 at 1–888–539–7474.

Entertainment Systems

Satellite radio reception factors: To receive the satellite signal, your vehicle has been equipped with a satellite radio antenna located on the roof of your vehicle. The vehicle roof provides the best location for an unobstructed, open view of the sky, a requirement of a satellite radio system. Like AM/FM, there are several factors that can affect satellite radio reception performance:

• Antenna obstructions: For optimal reception performance, keep the antenna clear of snow and ice build-up and keep luggage and other material as far away from the antenna as possible.

• Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges, tunnels, freeway overpasses, parking garages, dense tree foliage and thunderstorms can interfere with your reception.

• Station overload: When you pass a ground based broadcast repeating tower, a stronger signal may overtake a weaker one and result in an audio mute.

Unlike AM/FM audible static, you will hear an audio mute when there is a satellite radio signal interference. Your radio display may display NO SIGNAL to indicate the interference.

SIRIUS威 satellite radio service: SIRIUS威 satellite radio is a subscription based satellite radio service that broadcasts music, sports, news and entertainment programming. A service fee is required in order to receive SIRIUS威 service. Vehicles that are equipped with a factory installed SIRIUS威 satellite radio system include hardware and a limited subscription term, which begins on the date of sale or lease of the vehicle.

For information on extended subscription terms, the online media player and other SIRIUS威 features, please contact SIRIUS威 at 1–888–539–7474.

Note: SIRIUS威 reserves the unrestricted right to change, rearrange, add or delete programming including canceling, moving or adding particular channels, and its prices, at any time, with or without notice to you. Ford Motor Company shall not be responsible for any such programming changes.

Safety information

WARNING: Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle

Do not attempt to service or repair SYNC威. See your authorized dealer.

•

• Do not operate playing devices if the power cords and/or cables are

broken, split or damaged. Carefully place cords and/or cables where they will not be stepped on or interfere with the operation of pedals, seats and/or compartments, or safe driving abilities.

• Do not leave playing devices in the vehicle in extreme conditions as it could cause damage to your device. Refer to your device’s user guide for further information.

•

Ensure that you review your device’s user guide before using with SYNC威.

Privacy information

When a cellular phone is connected to SYNC威, SYNC威 creates a profile within your vehicle that is linked to that cellular phone. This profile is created in order to offer you more cellular features and to operate more efficiently. Among other things, this profile may contain data about your cellular phone book, text messages (read and unread), and call history, including history of calls when your cell phone was not connected to SYNC威. In addition, if you connect a media device, SYNC威 creates and retains an index of media content supported by SYNC威. SYNC威 also records a short development log of approximately 10 minutes of all recent SYNC威 activity. The log profile and other SYNC威 data may be used to improve SYNC威 and help diagnose any problems that may occur.

The cellular profile, media device index, and development log will remain in the vehicle unless you delete it and are generally accessible only in the vehicle when the cellular phone or media player is connected. If you no longer plan to use SYNC威 or the vehicle, we recommend you perform a Master Reset to erase all information stored in SYNC威.

SYNC威 data cannot be accessed without special equipment and access to the vehicle’s SYNC威 module. Ford Motor Company and Ford of Canada will not access SYNC威 data for any purpose other than as described absent consent, a court order, or where required by law enforcement, other

government authorities, or other third parties acting with lawful authority. Other parties may seek to access the information independently of Ford Motor Company and Ford of Canada. For further privacy information, see the sections on 911 Assist™ (if equipped), Vehicle Health Report (if equipped), and Traffic, Directions and Information (if equipped).

Using your voice recognition system

Your SYNC威 system comes equipped with an advanced voice recognition (VR) system. This system is easy to use and helps you control many features via voice commands, thereby allowing you to keep your hands on the wheel and focus on what is in front of you.

Here we’ll cover the basics of how the system works and some global voice commands. The majority of the voice commands will be covered later in the supplement with their respective modes (phone, media, etc.) and will also be indicated with the voice icon shown below.

Initiating a voice session

To initiate a voice session with your SYNC system:

1. Pull

2. Wait until you hear a tone prompt and Listening appears in the display.

3. Say any of the following global commands:

• “Phone”: Say to make calls.

• “USB”: Say to access the device connected to your USB port.

• “Bluetooth Audio”: Say to stream audio from your phone.

• “Line in” : Say to access the device connected to the auxiliary

input jack.

• “Cancel”: Say to cancel the requested action.

• “SYNC”: Say to return to the main menu.

• “Voice settings”: Say to adjust the level of voice interaction and

feedback.

• “Help”: Say for an audible list of voice commands available in the

current mode.

• “Vehicle Health Report” (if equipped, U.S. only): Say to run a

health report.

• “ Services” (if equipped, U.S. only): Say to access the SYNC

Services portal.

2012 Focus (foc) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)

Page 62

Entertainment Systems

System interaction and feedback

The system provides feedback through audible tones, prompts, questions and spoken confirmations depending on the situation and the chosen level of interaction (voice settings). You can customize your VR system to provide more or less instruction and feedback.

The default setting is to a higher level of interaction in order to be of more help when you are first using the system. You can change these settings at any time.

Adjusting the interaction level

1. Pull

2. You can say any of the following commands:

• “Interaction mode standard” / “Interaction mode advanced”

• “Confirmation prompts on” / “Confirmation prompts off”

• “Phone candidate lists on” / “Phone candidate lists off”

• “Media candidate lists on” / “ Media candidate lists off”

and when prompted, say, “Voice settings”.

Standard interaction provides more detailed interaction and guidance while advanced has less audible interaction and more tone prompts. The system defaults to the standard setting.

Confirmation prompts are short questions the system asks when it is not sure of your request or when there are multiple possible responses to your request. (For example, the system may ask, “Phone, is that correct?”) If turned off, the system will simply make a best guess as to what you requested and you may still occasionally be asked to confirm settings.

The system creates candidate lists when it has the same confidence level of several options based on your voice command. When turned on, the system may submit back as many as four possibilities for clarification.

For example, “Say 1 after the tone to call John Doe at home. Say 2 after the tone to call Johnny Doe on mobile. Say 3 after the tone to call Jane Doe at home.” Or, “Say 1 after the tone to play John Doe, Say 2 after the tone to play Johnny Doe.

Helpful Hints

• Ensure that the interior of the vehicle is as quiet as possible. Wind noise from open windows and road vibrations may prevent the system from correctly recognizing spoken commands.

• After pulling and Listening appears in the display before saying a command. Any

command spoken prior to this will not register with the system.

• Speak naturally without long pauses between words.

• At any time you can interrupt the system while it is speaking by

pulling

Using SYNC姞’s phone features

One of the main features of SYNC is hands-free calling which works in conjunction with your Bluetooth enabled cellular phone. In this section, we’ll cover your phone features in menu mode, applicable voice commands and also any additional options you may have.

Phone dependent features

While SYNC威 supports a variety of features, many are dependent upon the functionality of your cell phone with Bluetooth威 wireless technology. At a minimum, most cellular phones with Bluetooth wireless technology support the following functions:

• Answering an incoming call

• Ending a call

• Using privacy mode

Push to interrupt: You can, at any time while you are connected to SYNC TDI Services, pull (such as a sports report) and say your voice command.

Portable: Your SYNC TDI Services subscription is associated with your Bluetooth enabled cellular phone number, not your VIN (Vehicle Identification Number). Thus, you can use your SYNC TDI Service with any vehicle equipped with Traffic, Directions and Information. Simply pair and connect your phone to any vehicle equipped with Traffic, Directions and Information and continue enjoying your personalized services.

Note: The driver is ultimately responsible for the safe operation of the vehicle, and therefore, must evaluate whether it is safe to follow the suggested directions. Any navigation features are provided only as an aid. Make your driving decisions based on your observations of local conditions and existing traffic regulations. Do not follow the route suggestions if doing so would result in an unsafe or illegal maneuver, if you would be placed in an unsafe situation, or if you would be directed into an area that you consider unsafe. Maps used by this system may be inaccurate because of errors, changes in roads, traffic conditions or driving conditions.

Further, to provide the services you request and for continuous improvement, the service may collect and record call details and voice communications. For more information, see Traffic, Directions and Information, Terms and Conditions at www.SyncMyRide.com. If you do not want Ford or its service providers to collect the vehicle travel information or other information identified in the Terms and Conditions, do not activate or use the service.

911 Assist™ (if equipped)

For 911 Assist™ to function properly, the vehicle must have battery power after the crash, the cell phone must be previously paired, connected to SYNC威, and continue to function properly with the ability to make and maintain a 911 call initiated by SYNC威, and the 911 Assist™ feature must be previously enabled (set to ON).

WARNING: Do not wait for 911 Assist™ to initiate an

emergency call if you are capable 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 5 seconds after the crash, the system or phone may be damaged or non-functional.

The cell phone or 911 Assist™ hardware may become damaged in a crash, the vehicle may lose battery power, or the cell phone may be thrown from the vehicle, which could prevent operation. Additionally, every cell phone operates differently. While SYNC威, 911 Assist™ works with most cell phones, some may have trouble using this feature. Finally, not all crashes deploy an airbag or, in certain vehicles, activate the fuel pump shut-off which are the criteria to initiate 911 Assist™.

Airbags generally deploy in certain frontal, near frontal, side and rollover crashes, and the deployment of any airbag is intended to act as a 911 Assist™ trigger if those events occur. For more information about airbag deployment, see the Seating and Safety Restraints chapter of your Owner Guide. The fuel pump shut-off, in certain vehicles, is intended to act as a trigger for 911 Assist™ in rear-end crashes, in which airbags generally do not deploy. To determine if your vehicle has this trigger, check the Roadside Emergency chapter in your Owner’s Guide. If your Owner Guide describes a “Fuel Pump Shut-off”, it will trigger 911 Assist™. If your Owner Guide describes a “Fuel Pump Shut-off Switch”, it will not trigger 911 Assist™.

WARNING: Always place cell phone in a secure location to

prevent it from becoming a projectile or becoming damaged in the event of a collision. Failure to do so may cause serious injury or damage the phone which could prevent 911 Assist from functioning properly.

2012 Focus (foc) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA (fus)

Entertainment Systems

911 ASSIST™ PRIVACY NOTICE: Once 911 Assist™ is enabled (set to ON), 911 Assist™ may, through any paired and connected cell phone, disclose to emergency services that the vehicle has been in a crash involving the deployment of an airbag or, in certain vehicles, the activation of the fuel pump shut-off. Certain versions or updates to 911 Assist™ may also be capable of electronically or verbally disclosing to 911 operators the vehicle location, and/or other details about the vehicle or crash to assist 911 operators to provide the most appropriate emergency services. If you do not want to disclose this information, do not enable (set to ON) the feature.

Note: If 911 Assist™ is enabled/disabled by any user, the current setting

will apply for all paired phones. If the 911 Assist™ setting is disabled (set to OFF), a voice message and/or display item will inform the vehicle occupants when a previously paired phone connects to SYNC威 at vehicle start up.

In the event of a crash involving the deployment of an airbag or the activation of the fuel pump shut-off, in certain vehicles, SYNC威 is designed to assist occupants in attempting to contact emergency services by dialing 911 through the occupant’s paired and connected Bluetooth enabled cellular phone. In the event that a connected cellular phone is damaged or loses connection to SYNC威, SYNC威 will search for and connect to any available, previously paired cell phone and attempt to place the call to 911. Before initiating the call, SYNC威 provides a short window of time (approximately 10 seconds) that allows the driver or passenger to decide whether to cancel the call by pressing and holding system. Before initiating the 911 call for the occupants, SYNC威 will say the following or a similar message:

“SYNC威 will attempt to call 911. If you wish to cancel the call, press and hold the phone button.”

If the call is not cancelled and a successful call is made, a pre-recorded message will be played for the 911 operator and then the occupant(s) in the vehicle will be able to communicate with the 911 operator.

Note: Failure to cancel the call as described above will result in SYNC威 dialing 911.

Note: When you are connected to the 911 operator, be prepared to provide your name, phone number and location immediately, because not all 911 systems are capable of receiving this information electronically.

• A connected Bluetooth enabled cellular phone that has adequate network coverage, battery power and signal strength.

• The vehicle is located in the U.S. or Canada or in a territory in which 911 is the emergency number.

WARNING: Unless 911 Assist™ is previously configured to ON

prior to a crash, 911 Assist™ will not dial for help during an emergency, which could delay response time, increasing the risk of serious injury or death after a crash.

The 911 Assist™ feature is initially set to OFF. To access the setting:

Autoplay: With this feature ON, SYNC威 allows you to listen to music which has already been randomly indexed during the indexing process. With this feature OFF, SYNC威 will not begin to play any of your music until all media has all been indexed. Note: The larger the number of songs the system has to index, the longer indexing will take. Indexing times can vary from device to device.

Search/Play Genre: You can search for and play a specific genre (type) of music. SYNC威 will search all the data from your indexed music and, if available, will begin to play that type of music. Note: You can only play genres of music which are present in the GENRE metadata tags that you have on your digital media player.

Similar music: You can tell the system to play music ‘similar’ to what you are currently playing from the USB port. SYNC威 will use the metadata information of each indexed song to compile a playlist for you.

Search/play artist/track/album: You can search for a specific artist/track or album from the music SYNC威 has indexed through the USB port.

Refine: This allows you to ‘refine’ your previous commands.
