Driving Restrictions
For your safety, certain features are
speed-dependent and restricted when your
vehicle is traveling over 3 mph (5 km/h).
Safety Information
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 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.
When using SYNC:
• Do not operate playing devices if the
power cords or cables are broken, split
or damaged. Carefully place cords and
cables where they cannot be stepped
on or interfere with the operation of
pedals, seats, compartments or safe
driving abilities.
• Do not leave playing devices in the
vehicle during extreme conditions as it
could cause them damage. Refer to
your device's user guide for further
information.
• Do not attempt to service or repair the
system. See your authorized dealer. Privacy Information
When a mobile phone is connected to
SYNC, the system creates a profile within
your vehicle that is linked to that mobile
phone. This profile is created in order to
offer you more mobile features and to
operate more efficiently. Among other
things, this profile may contain data about
your mobile phone book, text messages
(read and unread), and call history,
including history of calls when your mobile
phone was not connected to the system.
In addition, if you connect a media device,
the system creates and retains an index of
supported media content. The system also
records a short development log of
approximately 10 minutes of all recent
system activity. The log profile and other
system data may be used to improve the
system and help diagnose any problems
that may occur.
The mobile 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
mobile phone or media player is
connected. If you no longer plan to use the
system or the vehicle, we recommend you
perform a Master Reset to erase all stored
information.
