GETTING STARTED WITH

can see what services you are
eligible for.
2. SYNC uses a wireless connection
called
Bluetooth® to communicate
with your phone. Switch on
Bluetooth mode in your phone’s
menu options. This lets your phone
find SYNC. If you need more details
on setting up your phone with
SYNC, visit owner.ford.com (U.S.)
