VEHICLE HEALTH REPORT (IF EQUIPPED, U.S. ONLY)
WARNING:Always follow scheduled maintenance instructions,
regularly inspect your vehicle, and seek repair for any damage or
problem you suspect. Vehicle Health Reports supplements, but cannot
replace normal maintenance and vehicle inspection. Vehicle Health
Report only monitors certain systems that are electronically monitored
by the vehicle and will not monitor or report the status of any other
system, (i.e., brake lining wear). Failure to perform scheduled
maintenance and regularly inspect your vehicle may result in vehicle
damage and serious injury.
SYNCallows you to check your vehicle’s overall ‘health’ in the form of
diagnostic report card. The vehicle health report contains valuable
information such as:
•Vehicle Diagnostic Information
•Scheduled maintenance
•Open Recalls and Field Service Actions
•Unserviced items from vehicle inspections by your authorized dealer
You can initiate vehicle health in the vehicle at any time and view the
complete report with all information listed above on SyncMyRide.com.
You can also choose for SYNCto automatically remind you to run
reports at specific mileage intervals aligned with your vehicle’s
maintenance schedule. Once you’ve turned Vehicle Health on in the
vehicle, you must go to www.SyncMyRide.com to set up your Vehicle
Health Report profile and activate the service online. SyncMyRide.com

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. SYNCwill 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. SYNCwill 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 SYNChas indexed through the
USB port.
Refine:This allows you to ‘refine’ your previous commands. For
example, if you told SYNCto search and play all music by a certain
artist, you could then tell SYNCto “refine album” and choose a specific
album from the list to view. If you then select ‘Play’, the system will only
play music from that specific album.
