WHAT IS 911 ASSIST
911 Assist is a SYNC system feature that
can call for help.
For more information, visit
www
. o wner .f or d . c om .
HOW DOES 911 ASSIST WORK
If a crash deploys an airbag, excluding knee
airbags and rear inflatable seatbelts, or
activates the battery shut-off, your vehicle
may be able to contact emergency services
by dialing 911 through a paired and
connected Bluetooth®-enabled phone.
Not all crashes will deploy an airbag or
activate the battery shut-off. If a
connected cell phone sustains damage or
loses its connection to SYNC during a
crash, SYNC will search for and try to
connect to a previously paired cell phone.
SYNC will then attempt to call the
emergency services.
Before making the call:
• SYNC provides about 10 seconds to
cancel the call. If you fail to cancel the
call, SYNC attempts to dial 911.
• SYNC says the following, or a similar
message: "SYNC will attempt to call
911, to cancel the call, press Cancel on
your screen or press and hold the
phone button on your steering wheel."
If you do not cancel the call and SYNC
makes a successful call a pre-recorded
message plays for the 911 operator. The
occupants in your vehicle are able to talk
with the operator. Be prepared to provide
your name, phone number and location
immediately because not all 911 systems
are capable of receiving this information
electronically.
During an emergency call the system
transmits vehicle data to the emergency
service. EMERGENCY CALL
REQUIREMENTS WARNING:
Do not wait for 911
Assist to make an emergency call if you
can do it yourself. Dial emergency
services immediately to avoid delayed
response time which could increase the
risk of serious injury or death after a
crash. If you do not hear 911 Assist within
five seconds of the crash, the system or
phone may be damaged or
non-functional. WARNING:
Always place your
phone in a secure location in your vehicle
so it does not become a projectile or get
damaged in a crash. Failure to do so may
cause serious injury to someone or
damage the phone which could prevent
911 Assist from working properly. WARNING:
Unless the 911 Assist
setting is set on before a crash, the
system will not dial for help which could
delay response time, potentially
increasing the risk of serious injury or
death after a crash.
• SYNC is powered and working properly
at the time of the incident and
throughout feature activation and use.
• The 911 Assist feature must be set on
before the incident.
• You must pair and connect a
Bluetooth®
enabled and compatible
cell phone to SYNC.
• A connected
Bluetooth® enabled
phone must have the ability to make
and maintain an outgoing call at the
time of the incident.

FRONT SEAT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Sitting improperly, out
of position or with the seatback reclined
too far can take weight off the seat
cushion and affect the decision of the
passenger sensing system, resulting in
serious injury or death in the event of a
crash. Always sit upright against your
seat back, with your feet on the floor. WARNING: Do not recline the seat
backrest too far as this can cause the
occupant to slide under the seatbelt,
resulting in personal injury in the event
of a crash. WARNING:
Do not place objects
higher than the top of the seat backrest.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in personal injury or death in the
event of a sudden stop or crash. WARNING: Do not adjust the driver
seat or seat backrest when your vehicle
is moving. This may result in sudden seat
movement, causing the loss of control
of your vehicle. SITTING IN THE CORRECT
POSITION When you use them properly, the seat,
head restraint, seatbelt and airbags will
provide optimum protection in the event
of a crash.
We recommend that you follow these
guidelines:
•
Sit in an upright position with the base
of your spine as far back as possible.
• Do not recline the seat backrest so that
your torso is more than 30 degrees
from the upright position.
• Adjust the head restraint so that the
top of it is level with the top of your
head and as far forward as possible.
Make sure that you remain
comfortable.
• Keep sufficient distance between
yourself and the steering wheel. We
recommend a minimum of
10 in
(25 cm) between your breastbone and
the airbag cover.
• Hold the steering wheel with your arms
slightly bent.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Do not use cleaners or solvents as this
could damage your mobile charger. Do not
place stress on the charger cables. If unit
overheats, remove the mobile charger from
direct sunlight.
SAFETY FEATURES
The charger includes the following safety
features to protect against the risk of
electric shock:
•
Service Ground Check: The charger
constantly checks for the presence of
a service ground connection. If the
service ground ever fails, the charger
red indicator turns ON and shuts down
power to the vehicle.
• Thermal Event Sensor: Charger module
senses out-of-ordinary thermal events
and decreases the charging current or
shuts the unit down if required.
• Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
Protection: The charger has a ground
fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) reaction
system to protect against electric
shock. If the charger module detects
an output ground fault, it shuts down
power to the output cable and
illuminates the red indicator.
• Insulation: The charger module,
connector, cable assembly, and charge
coupler are completely insulated.
There are no exposed live parts, to
protect against electric shock.
• Unintentional Disconnection: The
charge coupler is designed to minimize
unintentional disconnection. A pilot
signal wire in the cable and charge
coupler eliminates the possibility of
electric shock when not connected to
a vehicle or if an unintended disconnect
occurs during a charge. Disconnection
during charging is safe. LOCATING THE CHARGE PORT
The charge port is between the front
left-hand side door and front left-hand
wheel well. To open, press the center
right-hand edge of the charge port door
and then release.
Note:
Do not apply excessive force. Forcing
the door open or closed damages the charge
port.
CHARGE PORT INDICATORS
The charge status indicator is next to the
charging port behind the charge port door.
It indicates the charge status of the high
voltage battery in your vehicle.
Divided into five zones, the charge status
indicator displays the state of charge in 20
percent increments.
The charge status indicator displays how
far along the charge is:
• When zone A is pulsing, the charge is
between 0-20 percent.
• When zone A illuminates, and zone B
is pulsing, the charge is between 20-40
percent.
• When zones A and B illuminate and
zone C is pulsing, the charge is between
40-60 percent.

3. Set preferred charging times for
weekday and/or weekend by pressing
and dragging along the 24 hour time
wheel. You can set up to two blocks of
time (charge windows). Press next
once you have your desired time
settings for weekday and weekend.
Note: Selecting all or none of the 24 hours
results in any time of day given equal priority
for charging.
4. The summary screen displays your settings for this location. Press save or
press the left arrow to go back and
change your settings. Whenever your
vehicle is at a saved charging location,
the charge settings screen displays the
location name, and the charging times
are based on your preferred time
settings for that location plus the next
departure time.
Note: Reaching your max charge level by
your next departure time is always the
priority. When charge times are set, charging
outside your preferred charging time
windows could be necessary in order to
finish by your next departure time. In this
case, the vehicle will typically begin charging
right away after plugging in.
Departure and Comfort Setup
Follow these steps to set departure times
and cabin comfort level. 1.
Press the edit button for departure and
comfort on the charge settings screen.
2. Select a time for each day of the week
you want your settings to apply. Select
the hour and minutes as well as your
desired comfort level. Your selected
days/times now display your departure
and comfort settings. Press Save to
apply your settings. The next departure
display on the charge settings screen
will update appropriately.
Note: Save your departure settings before
selecting additional days/times. The
process must be repeated in order to add
additional unique departure times and
comfort levels.
Note: Cabin conditioning comfort level may
vary depending on if you plug into a normal
household outlet or a higher power outlet
or charging station. The power available for
conditioning is limited to the charging
station power available. At low ambient
temperatures and low charge power, a
small amount of high voltage battery power
in addition to the charging power could be
used to heat the cabin.
Note: The departure and comfort settings
can also be accessed through the separate
vehicle settings departure and comfort
button. Press the edit button from this
screen to begin the settings process outlined
above.
