WARNING:Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle
control, accident and injury. Ford strongly recommends that
drivers use extreme caution when using any device or feature that may
take their 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.

The auxiliary input jack (AIJ) provides a way to connect and play music
from your portable music player over the vehicle speakers. To access:
1. Plug in one end of the cable into the AIJ (located in your center
console).
2. Listen to an FM station or a CD first to adjust the volume to a
comfortable listening level.
3. Turn your portable music player on and adjust the volume to 1/2 of
full volume.
4. Press AUX repeatedly untilAuxiliary audio activeorLine in active
appears.
5. Now adjust the volume on your portable music player until it matches
that of the FM station or the CD you were listening to previously.
Troubleshooting tips
•Don’t connect the AIJ to a line level output. These are intended for
connection to a home stereo and are not compatible.
•Don’t set the volume on your portable music player higher than
necessary as this may cause distortion and reduce sound quality.
•If the music sounds distorted at lower listening levels, turn the volume
on the portable music player down and check to see if you need to
replace or recharge the batteries.
•The AIJ doesn’t provide control over your portable music player. You
still need to use the controls on the player for functions such as play,
pause, etc.
•For safety reasons, you should not connect or adjust your portable
music player while the vehicle is moving. The portable music player
should have a long enough extension cable to allow it to be stored in a
secure location, (such as the center console or the glove box) when
the vehicle is in motion.
Phone
PHONE:If your vehicle is equipped with this audio system and SYNC,
press PHONE to access SYNC phone features. Refer to your SYNC
supplement for more information.
If your vehicle is not equipped with SYNC, press PHONE to mute the
playing media. Press again to return to the playing media.
If your vehicle is equipped with a touchscreen system, refer to the
MyFord Touch™ / MyLincoln Touch™supplement for further
information.
