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
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.
Note:Some features are not available while your vehicle is moving.
Note:Your system is equipped with a feature that allows you to access
and control audio features for 30 minutes after you switch the ignition
off (and no doors open).
This system uses a four-corner strategy to provide quick access several
vehicle features and settings. The 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 phone status 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 descriptions 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
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 affect operation of a nearby
control.
•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.
•Keep metal and other conductive material away from the surface of
the touchscreen as this may cause electronic interference (for
example, inadvertently turning on a feature other than the one you
meant to turn on).
Depending on your vehicle and option package, you may also have these
controls on your bezel:
•Power: Switch the media or climate features off and on.
•VOL:Control the volume of playing media.
•Fan: Control the speed of the climate system fan.
•Seek and Tune buttons: Use as you normally would in media modes.
•Eject: Eject a CD from the entertainment system.
•Radio preset buttons: Located below the touchscreen, you can use
these buttons to enter a radio preset in addition to using the
touchscreen.
•MEDIA:Touch the word repeatedly to see all available media modes.
The screen does not change, but you see the media change in the
lower left status bar.
•Hazard flasher: Switch the hazard flashers off and on.
Cleaning the Touchscreen Display
Use a clean, soft cloth such as one used for cleaning glasses. If dirt or
fingerprints are still visible, apply a small amount of alcohol to the cloth.
Do not pour or spray alcohol onto the display. Do not use detergent or
any type of solvent to clean the display.
