GLOSSARY OF TERMS 
Autoplay: With Autoplay turned ON, SYNC allows you to listen to music 
which has already been randomly indexed during the indexing process.
With Autoplay turned off, the chosen music will not begin to play until
all of the music has been indexed by SYNC. Depending on the size of the
material, this may take a few minutes. 
Bluetooth enabled cellular phone:  Any cellular phone which has the 
Bluetooth  wireless technology which will enable the phone to connect 
with SYNC and exchange information wirelessly. 
Digital media player / USB Device:  This is a generic term used to 
signify any of the following media devices: iPod  , Zune™, “Plays from 
device” players, and most USB drives (thumb drives, flash drives, PEN
drives, etc.) 
Discoverable mode:  A mode which allows other Bluetoothenabled 
devices to find your  Bluetoothenabled device. 
Discovery mode:  A mode which allows your Bluetoothenabled device 
to search for other ‘discoverable’  Bluetoothenabled devices. 
In-band ringing:  This is a phone dependent feature. If your Bluetooth 
enabled cellular phone supports this feature, SYNC can play your ring
tone during incoming calls. 
Indexing:  A process in which SYNC builds a voice recognition grammar 
for the media content of your digital media player. While indexing, SYNC
will play already indexed media if Autoplay is on. However, voice
recognition is not available for the media until the indexing process is
complete. 
Metadata:  Descriptive tags embedded in your digital media which 
provide SYNC with information such as ARTIST, ALBUM, GENRE and
TRACK. 
Pairing:  To use your Bluetoothenabled cellular phone with SYNC, you 
must go through a pairing (bonding) process. “Pairing” is a special
process used when two devices connect for the first time. The pairing
process is used to generate a link key that is used for authentication
purposes during subsequent  Bluetoothconnections between the two 
devices. 
PIN (Personal Identification number):  This six digit number 
(sometimes referred to as a passkey) will be shown in the radio display
during the pairing process with your  Bluetoothenabled device. You do 
not need to write down this number as it will only be used for that
specific pairing procedure.
