GENERAL AUDIO INFORMATION

Commission (FCC) and the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC). Those frequencies are:
AM: 530, 540–1700, 1710 kHz
FM: 87.7, 87.9–107.7, 107.9 MHz
Radio reception factors:
There are three factors that can affect radio reception:
•Distance/strength: The further you travel from an FM station, the
weaker the signal and the weaker the reception.
•Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, power lines, electric fences,
traffic lights and thunderstorms can interfere with your reception.
•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.

(Never touch the playing
surface).

FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT DVD SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
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.
Your vehicle may be equipped with a Family Entertainment System (FES)
which allows you to listen to audio CDs, MP3 discs, watch DVDs and to
plug in and play a variety of standard video game systems. The
headrest-mounted DVD players are capable of playing standard DVDs, CDs,
MP3s and are compatible with Video CD, HDCD, Hybrid SACD (play CD
layer only), SVCD, DVD-video, JPEGs, up to MPEG-4 files, MP3 files and
WMA media. Please review this material to become familiar with the FES
features and controls as well as the very important safety information.
Quick start
Your family entertainment system includes two headrest-mounted DVD
player/screens, two sets of wireless infrared (IR) headphones and a
wireless infrared (IR) remote control capable of controlling either DVD
player. Both DVD players are capable of playing their own independent
media, or they can both watch the same media.
When in single play mode, the headrest video sources that have been
selected at each headrest will play through the speakers, but no audio is
available through the headphones.
To play a DVD
1. Insert a DVD into the system, label side facing the rear passengers.

To play an auxiliary source through the DVD system
The DVD system can be used to connect and play auxiliary electronic
devices (game systems, personal camcorders, video cassette recorders,
etc) and to connect to and access certain files through your USB port.

located behind the left trim cover
panel, is the headphone input jack

the media selected through that
monitor. When you need to make
any adjustments to the media,

supported, CAN’T PLAY will appear in the monitor. Scroll through the
contents on the rest of the drive using the arrow keys on the DVD
headrest or remote. Press SEL to confirm a selection. Each headrest
