Privacy information
When a cellular phone is connected to SYNC, SYNCcreates 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. In addition, if you connect a media device, SYNCcreates and
retains an index of media content supported by SYNC. SYNCalso
records a short development log of approximately 10 minutes of all
recent SYNCactivity. The log profile and other SYNCdata may be
used to improve SYNCand 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 SYNCor the vehicle, we recommend you perform a
Master Reset to erase all information stored in SYNC.
SYNCdata cannot be accessed without special equipment and access to
the vehicle’s SYNCmodule. Ford Motor Company and Ford of Canada
will not access SYNCdata 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).

Supported Media Players, Formats and Metadata Information
SYNCis capable of hosting nearly any digital media player, including
iPod, Zune™, “Plays from device” players, and most USB drives.
Supported audio formats include MP3, WMA, WAV and AAC.
It is also able to organize your indexed media from your playing device
by metadata tags. Metadata tags are descriptive software identifiers
embedded in the media files which provide information about the file.
If your indexed media files contain no information embedded in these
metadata tags, SYNCmay classify the empty metadata tags asUnknown.
In order to playback video from your iPodor iPhone(if compatible), you
must have a special combination USB/RCA composite video cable (available
for purchase from Apple). When the cable is connected to your iPodor
iPhone, plug the other end into both the RCA jacks and the USB port.
Bluetooth Audio
Your system allows you to stream audio over your vehicle’s speakers from
your connected, Bluetooth-enabled cellular phone.
To access, press the lower left corner on the touchscreen, then
select the BT tab.

A/V Inputs
Your A/V inputs allow you to connect an
auxiliary audio/video source (game
systems, personal camcorders, etc.) by
connecting RCA cords (not included) to
these input jacks. The jacks are yellow,
red and white and are located either
behind a small access door on the
instrument panel or in your center console.
You can also use the A/V inputs as an auxiliary input jack (AIJ) to play
music from your portable music player over your vehicle’s speakers. Plug
in your 1/8 in. (3.5 mm) RCA adapter into the two left A/V input jacks
(red and white).
Press the lower left corner of the touchscreen, then, select A/V inputs.
To use the auxiliary input jack feature, make sure that your portable
music player is designed to be used with headphones and that it is fully
charged. You also need an audio extension cable with stereo male 1/8 in.
(3.5 mm) connectors at one end and a RCA jack at the other.
1. Begin with the vehicle parked and the radio and portable device are
turned off.
2. Attach one end of the audio extension cable to the headphone output
of your player and the other end into the adaptor in one of the two
left A/V input jacks (white or red) inside the center console.

3. Press the lower left corner on the touchscreen. Select either a tuned
station from the FM tab or the CD tab (if there is a CD already
loaded into the system.) Adjust the volume to a comfortable listening
level.
4. Turn the portable music player on and adjust the volume to 1/2 the
volume.
5. Press the lower left corner on the touchscreen. Select the A/V in tab.
(You should hear audio from your portable music player although it
may be low.)
6. Adjust the sound on your portable music player until it reaches the
level of the FM station or CD by switching back and forth between
the controls.
In order to playback video from your iPodor iPhone(if compatible),
you must have a special combination USB/RCA composite video cable
(available for purchase from Apple). When the cable is connected to
your iPodor iPhone, plug the other end into both the RCA jacks and
the USB port.
Note:For safety reasons, connecting or adjusting the settings on your
portable music player should not be attempted while the vehicle is
moving. Also, the portable music player should be stored in a secure
location, such as the center console or the glove box, when the vehicle is
in motion. The audio extension cable must be long enough to allow the
portable music player to be safely stored while the vehicle is in motion.
Troubleshooting
•Do not connect the audio input jack to a line level output. The AIJ
only works correctly with devices that have a headphone output with a
volume control.
•Do not set the portable music player’s volume level higher than is
necessary to match the volume of the CD or FM radio as this causes
distortion and reduces sound quality.
•If the music sounds distorted at lower listening levels, turn the
portable music player volume down. If the problems persists, replace
or recharge the batteries in the portable music player.
•The portable music player must be controlled in the same manner
when it is used with headphones as the AIJ does not provide control
(play, pause, etc.) over the attached portable music player.
