CD player FORD ESCAPE 2013 3.G Owner's Manual

A/V Inputs
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.
Your A/V inputs allow you to connect an
auxiliary audio/video source (e.g. game
systems or personal camcorders) by
connecting RCA cords (not included) to
these input jacks. The jacks are yellow, red
and white and are located either in the
center console or behind a small access
door in the instrument panel.
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 one-eighth
inch (3.5 millimeter) RCA adapter into the
two left A/V input jacks (red and white).
Press the lower left corner of the
touchscreen, then select the A/V Inputs
tab. 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
one-eighth inch (3.5 millimeter)
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 one-half.
5. Press the lower left corner on the touchscreen. Select the A/V Input 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 iPod®
or 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 iPod® or iPhone®,
plug the other end into both the RCA jacks
and the USB port.

Note: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.
Note: 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.
Note: 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.
Note: 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.
PHONE
Hand's-free calling is one of the main
features of SYNC. Once your phone is
paired, you can access many options using
the touchscreen or voice commands. While
the system supports a variety of features,
many are dependent on your mobile
phone's functionality.
At a minimum, most mobile phones with
Bluetooth wireless technology support the
following functions:
• Answering an incoming call
• Ending a call
• Using privacy mode
• Dialing a number
• Redial
• Call waiting notification
• Caller ID Other features such as text messaging
using Bluetooth and automatic phonebook
download are phone-dependent features.
To check your phone's compatibility, refer
to your phone's user manual and visit
www.SYNCMyRide.com or
www.syncmaroute.ca.

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

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.
The first thing you must do to use SYNC's
phone features is to pair your
Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone with
SYNC. This allows you to use your phone
in a hands-free manner.
Note: Make sure the vehicle ignition and
radio are turned on and that the
transmission is in position P.
1. Touch Add Phone in the upper left corner of the touchscreen.
2. When prompted, select Add.
3. Select Add Device.

proper mode. Refer to your phone's
user guide if necessary.
