Introduction
MOBILE MEDIA NAVIGATION SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with a mobile media navigation system which
allows you to listen to, record and save music, play DVDs (audio and
video), navigate the vehicle and operate climate control functions (if
equipped).
Your system has a large range of features, yet is easy to use. The display
screen is the primary means for operating the system through the use of
its vertically tabbed menus, text screens and menu displays. Screen
selections are made by touching the desired area on the touchscreen.
The “tabs” along the left side of the screen represent the major
components of the system. The status bars at the top and bottom of the
screen will display for the majority of the time once the system is turned
on and ready for operation. The top status bar will contain menu names,
icons, and a clock. The lower status bar contains climate information (if
equipped), icons and advisory messages. Please refer to Status bars in
the System Overview chapter for more information. Navigation guidance
is shown on the touchscreen display and is supplemented with voice
prompts.

Introduction
DRIVING RESTRICTIONS
In order to prevent the navigation system from distracting you while
driving, access to certain functions are restricted when the vehicle is
traveling above 5 mph (8 km/h). At this time, only the Quick Destination
menu items are available for destination entry. Restricted functions
include:
• Travel Link™ subscriptions (if active) such as movie times, ski
conditions, sports scores and scrolling of the weather map
• Editing/Adding entries in the Address Book
• Editing/Adding entries in the Avoid Areas List
• Jukebox restrictions such as creating/editing playlists, sorting playlists,
editing track, artist and album names
• Uploading photographs
Note: If your vehicle is equipped with SYNC威, similar features will be
restricted also.
When the vehicle begins to move and the Select Route Screen is shown,
the highlighted route is automatically selected and guidance begins.
When the vehicle speed is reduced to 5 mph (8 km/h) or less, system
restrictions are lifted and you have full access to the system.

SAFETY INFORMATION
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 the vehicle. We recommend against the use of any
handheld device while driving, encourage the use of voice-operated
systems when possible and that you become aware of applicable state
and local laws that may affect use of electronic devices while driving.
• Do not attempt to service or repair the system. 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.
• For your safety, some functions are speed dependent and cannot be
performed when the vehicle is traveling at speeds 5 mph (8 km/h) and
below.
• 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.

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

REVERSE CAMERA (IF EQUIPPED)
Your vehicle may be equipped with a reverse camera on the tailgate which
provides a video image of the area behind the vehicle. When the
transmission is in R (Reverse), an image will automatically display on the
navigation screen. Once the vehicle i s back in D (Drive), the image will
continue to display until you are driving over 5 mph (8 km/h). To remove
this image from the screen, press any hard button on the navigation system.
When the vehicle is in R (Reverse),
press SETTINGS to make
adjustments to the brightness of the
display as well as the rear camera
display.
When the rear camera delay
function is ON, it extends the
display of the camera image into
Drive mode until vehicle speed is
greater than 5 mph (8 km/h). This
is useful when trying to
engage/disengage a trailer. Once you
shift out of R (Reverse), the image
will be removed from the screen.
The default for the rear camera
delay is off.
Prior to using, ensure that the camera lens is clear of any debris, mud,
etc. and that both reverse lamps are operational if using at night.
Depending on your vehicle, you may have a Zoom button (if equipped)
as well as additional selections under the Settings button.
For complete information, refer to Rear-view Camera System in the
