Privacy Information
When you connect a cellular phone to
SYNC, the system creates a profile within
your vehicle that links to that cellular
phone. This profile helps in offering you
more cellular features and operating 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 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 cellular profile, media device index,
and development log remain in your
vehicle unless you delete them and are
generally accessible only in your vehicle
when the cellular phone or media player
is connected. If you no longer plan to use
the system or your vehicle, we recommend
you perform a Master Reset to erase all
stored information.
System data cannot be accessed without
special equipment and access to your
vehicle's SYNC module. Ford Motor
Company and Ford of Canada do not
access the system data 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,
Vehicle Health Report, and Traffic,
Directions and Information.

Using Voice Recognition
This system helps you control many
features using voice commands. This
allows you to keep your hands on the
wheel and focus on what is in front of you.
The system provides feedback through
audible tones, prompts, questions and
spoken confirmations depending on the
situation and the chosen level of
interaction (voice settings).
The system also asks short questions
(confirmation prompts) when it is not sure
of your request or when there are multiple
possible responses to your request.
When using voice commands, words and
icons may appear in the lower left status
bar indicating the status of the voice
session (such as Listening, Success, Failed,
Paused or Try Again).
How to Use Voice Commands with Your
System
Press the voice icon. After the
tone, speak your command
clearly.
These commands can be said at any time
during a voice session
"Cancel""Exit"
"Go back"
"List of commands" "Main menu""Next page"
"Previous page"
"What can I say?" "Help" What Can I Say?
To access the available voice commands
for the current session, do one of the
following:
•
During a voice session, press the Help
icon (?) in the lower left status bar of
the screen.
• Say, "What can I say?" for an
on-screen listing of the possible voice
commands associated with your
current voice session.
• Press the voice icon. After the tone, say,
"Help" to hear a list of possible voice
commands.
Helpful Hints
• Make sure the interior of your vehicle is
as quiet as possible. Wind noise from
open windows and road vibrations may
prevent the system from correctly
recognizing spoken commands.
• After pressing the voice icon, wait until
after the tone sounds and Listening
appears before saying a command. Any
command spoken prior to this does not
register with the system.
• Speak naturally, without long pauses
between words.
• At any time, you can interrupt the
system while it is speaking by pressing
the voice icon.
Accessing a List of Available Commands
• If you use the touchscreen, press the
Settings icon >
Help > Voice
Command List.
• If you use the steering wheel control,
press the voice icon. After the tone,
speak your command clearly.

Voice Settings
Voice settings allow you to customize the
level of system interaction, help and
feedback. The system defaults to standard
interaction that uses candidate lists and
confirmation prompts as these provide the
highest level of guidance and feedback. •
Interaction Mode: Novice mode
provides detailed interaction and
guidance while the advanced mode
has less audible interaction and more
tone prompts.
• Confirmation Prompts:
The system
uses these short questions to confirm
your voice request. If turned off, the
system simply makes a best guess as
to what you requested. The system
may still occasionally ask you to
confirm settings.
• Phone and Media Candidate Lists:
Candidate lists are lists of possible
results from your voice commands. The
system creates these lists when it has
the same confidence level of several
options based on your voice command.
To access these settings using the
touchscreen:
1. Press the Settings icon >
Settings >
Voice Control.
2. Select from:
• Interaction Mode
• Confirmation Prompts
• Media Candidate Lists
• Phone Candidate Lists
• Voice Control Volume.
To access these settings using voice
commands:
1. Press the voice icon. Wait for the prompt "Please say a command".
Another tone sounds to let you know
the system is listening.
2. Say any of the following commands: Voice settings using voice commands

or trying to call a contact from the phone
you paired to the system.
