•Station overload: When you pass a broadcast tower, a stronger signal
may overtake a weaker one and play while the weak station frequency
is displayed.
•Electric motor noise: AM reception is affected by static and tones
created by the electric motor in your plug-in/hybrid vehicle. These
noises are inherent to the technology used on this vehicle and cannot
be mitigated by your Ford dealer. The noise becomes more or less
significant depending upon the other factors listed here for reception.
CD/CD Player Information

•Handle discs by their edges only.
(Never touch the playing
surface).
•Inspect discs before playing.
•Clean only with an approved CD
cleaner.
•Wipe discs from the center out.
Don’t:
•Expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources for extended periods
of time.
•Clean using a circular motion.
CD units are designed to play commercially pressed 4.75 in

Do not use any irregular shaped
CDs or discs with a scratch
protection film attached.
CDs with homemade paper
(adhesive) labels should not be
inserted into the CD player as
the label may peel and cause the
CD to become jammed. It is
recommended that homemade
CDs be identified with
permanent felt tip marker rather
than adhesive labels. Ballpoint pens may damage CDs. Please
contact your authorized dealer for further information.
Audio System Warranty and Service
Refer to theWarranty Guide/Customer Information Guidefor audio
system warranty information. If service is necessary, see your dealer or
qualified technician.
Satellite Radio Information (If Equipped)
Satellite Radio Channels
SIRIUSbroadcasts a variety of music, news, sports, weather, traffic and
entertainment satellite radio channels. For more information and a
complete list of SIRIUSsatellite radio channels, visit www.sirius.com in
the United States, www.siriuscanada.ca in Canada, or call SIRIUSat
1–888–539–7474.
Satellite Radio Reception Factors
To receive the satellite signal, your vehicle has been equipped with a
satellite radio antenna located on the roof of your vehicle. The vehicle
roof provides the best location for an unobstructed, open view of the sky,
a requirement of a satellite radio system. Like AM/FM, there are several
factors that can affect satellite radio reception performance:
•Antenna obstructions: For optimal reception performance, keep the
antenna clear of snow and ice build-up and keep luggage and other
material as far away from the antenna as possible.

•Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges, tunnels, freeway
overpasses, parking garages, dense tree foliage and thunderstorms can
interfere with your reception.
•Station overload: When you pass a ground based broadcast repeating
tower, a stronger signal may overtake a weaker one and result in an
audio mute.
Unlike AM/FM audible static, you will hear an audio mute when there is
satellite radio signal interference. Your radio display may display NO
SIGNAL to indicate the interference.

or delete programming including canceling, moving or adding particular

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

handheld device while driving, encourage the use of voice-operated

and local laws that may affect use of electronic devices while driving.
Note:Some features are not available while the vehicle is moving.
Note:Your system is equipped with a feature that allows you to access
and control audio features for 30 minutes after the ignition has been
turned off (as long as no doors are opened).
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.

HOME
Press to access your home screen. Depending on your vehicle’s option
package and software, your screens may vary in appearance from the
screens shown in this section. Your features may also be limited
depending on your market. Check with your authorized dealer for
availability.
Using the Touch-sensitive Controls on Your System
Your vehicle’s centerstack has touch-sensitive switches for your
infotainment and climate control systems. To turn a feature on and off,
just touch the graphic with your finger. To get the best performance
from the touch-sensitive controls:
•Do not press hard on the controls. They are sensitive to light touch.
•Use your bare finger to touch the center of a touch-control graphic.
Touching off-center of the graphic may cause a nearby control to turn
on or off.
•Make sure your hands are clean and dry.
•Since the touchscreen operates based on the touch of a finger, you
may have trouble using it if you are wearing gloves.
•Metal and other conductive material should be kept away from the
surface of the touchscreen as this may cause electronic interference
(i.e., control activation).
Depending on your vehicle and option package, you may also have these
controls on your bezel:
•Power: Turn the media (or climate features) on or off.
•VOL: Increase or decrease the volume.
•Fan: Increase or decrease the fan speed.
•Seek and Tune buttons: Use as you normally would in media modes.
•Eject: Eject a CD.
•SOURCE: Touch the word repeatedly to see all available media
modes. The screen does not change, but you see the media changes
in the lower left status bar.
•SOUND: Touch the word to access the Sound menu where you can
make adjustments to settings, such as: Bass, Midrange, Treble,
Balance and Fade, THX Deep Note Demo (if equipped), DSP (if
equipped), Occupancy Mode (if equipped), and Speed Compensated
Volume settings.
•Hazard flasher: Press the button to turn the hazard flashers on or off.
