Issue Possible
Cause(s)Possible Solution(s)
I heard a
commercial when
I tried to use
Traffic, Directions
and Information.The phone in use
is not activated,
OR
Your phone has
ID blocker active.This is a free feature, but you
must first register online to use
it.
Turn off ID blocker on your
phone as the system recognizes
you by your phone number.
Make sure the currently
connected phone is the same
one that is registered on your
SyncMyRide account.

Voice command issues
Issue Possible
Cause(s)Possible Solution(s)
SYNC does not
understand what
I am saying.You may be using
the wrong voice
commands, OR
You may be
speaking too soon
or at the wrong
time.Review the Phone voice
commands and the Media voice
commands at the beginning of
their respective sections.
Be aware that SYNC’s
microphone is either in your
rear view mirror or in the
headliner just above the
windshield.
SYNC does not
understand the
name of a song or
artist.You may be using
the wrong voice
commands, OR
You may not be
saying the name
exactly as it is
saved, OR
The system may
not be “reading”
the name the
same way you are
saying it.Review the media voice
commands at the beginning of
the media section.
Say the song or artist exactly as
they are listed. If you say, “Play
Artist Prince”, the system does
not play music by Prince and
the Revolution or Prince and the
New Power Generation.
Make sure you are saying the
complete title such as
“California remix featuring
Jennifer Nettles”.
If the songs are saved in all
CAPS, you have to spell them.
LOLA requires you to say, “ Play
L-O-L-A”
Do not use special characters in
the title as the system does not
recognize them.

Voice command issues
Issue Possible
Cause(s)Possible Solution(s)
SYNC does not
understand or is
calling the wrong
contact when I
want to make a
call.You may be using
the wrong voice
commands, OR
You may not be
saying the name
exactly as it is
saved, OR
Contacts in your
phonebook may
be very short and
similar, or they
may contain
special
characters, OR
Your phonebook
contacts may be
saved in CAPS.Review the phone voice
commands at the beginning of
the phone section.
Make sure you are saying the
contacts exactly as they are
listed. For example, if a contact
is saved as Joe Wilson, say “Call
Joe Wilson”.
The system works better if you
list full names such as “Joe
Wilson” rather than “Joe”.
Do not use special characters
such as 123 or ICE as the
system does not recognize them.
If contacts are saved in CAPS,
you have to spell them. JAKE
requires you to say, “ Call
J-A-K-E.”

INTRODUCTION
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.
Note:Some features are not available while the vehicle is moving.
This system uses a four-corner strategy to provide quick access to
vehicle features and settings. The comprehensive touchscreen provides
easy interaction with your cellular phone, multimedia, climate control
and navigation system. The corners display any active modes within
those menus, such as your phone being connected or the climate
temperature.

scores, movie times, ski conditions, etc.

navigation destination or editing information
•All lists are limited so the user can view fewer entries (e.g. phone
contacts, recent phone call entries)

the vehicle is not moving:

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).
