phone LINCOLN MKZ 2013 User Guide

•
When adding accessories,
equipment, passengers and
luggage to your vehicle, do not
exceed the total weight capacity
of the vehicle or of the front or rear
axle (GVWR or GAWR as indicated
on the Safety Compliance
Certification label). Consult your
authorized dealer for specific
weight information.
• The Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) and Canadian
Radio Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC) regulate the
use of mobile communications
systems — such as two-way
radios, telephones and theft
alarms - that are equipped with
radio transmitters. Any such
equipment installed in your vehicle
should comply with FCC or CRTC
regulations and should be installed
only by a qualified service
technician.
• Mobile communications systems
may harm the operation of your
vehicle, particularly if they are not
properly designed for automotive
use. •
To avoid interference with other
vehicle functions, such as anti-lock
braking systems, amateur radio
users who install radios and
antennas onto their vehicle should
not locate the amateur radio
antennas in the area of the driver's
side hood.
• Any non-Lincoln custom electrical
or electronic accessories or
components that are added to the
vehicle by the authorized dealer or
the owner, may adversely affect
battery performance and
durability, and may also adversely
affect the performance of other
electrical systems in the vehicle.

recommends that drivers use extreme
caution when using any device or
feature that may take their focus off
the road. Your primary responsibility

while the vehicle is moving.
Note: Your system is equipped with a
feature that allows you to access and
control audio features for 30 minutes
after the ignition has been turned off
(as long as no doors are opened).
This system uses a four-corner
strategy to provide quick access to

Safety Information
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. When using SYNC:
•
Do not operate playing devices if
the power cords or cables are
broken, split or damaged. Carefully
place cords and cables where they
cannot be stepped on or interfere
with the operation of pedals, seats,
compartments or safe driving
abilities.
• Do not leave playing devices in the
vehicle during extreme conditions
as it could cause them damage.
See your device's user guide for
further information. •
Do not attempt to service or repair
the system. See your authorized
dealer.
• For your safety, some SYNC
functions are speed-dependent
and cannot be performed when
the vehicle is traveling at speeds
greater than 3 mph (5 km/h).
Make sure that you review your
device's user guide before using it with
SYNC.
Speed-Restricted Features
Some features of this system may be
too difficult to use while the vehicle is
in motion so they are restricted from
being modified unless the vehicle is
not moving. Some examples of these
are listed below:
• Screens that are too crowded with
information, such as Point of
Interest (POI) reviews and ratings,
SIRIUS Travel Link sports scores,
movie times, ski conditions, etc.
• Any action that requires using a
keyboard, such as entering a
navigation destination or editing
information.
• All lists are limited so the user can
view fewer entries (e.g., phone
contacts, recent phone call
entries).
Listed below are more specific
features that can only be modified
while the vehicle is not moving:

Privacy Information
When a cellular phone is connected
to SYNC, the system creates a profile
within your vehicle that is linked to
that cellular phone. This profile is
created in order to offer you more
cellular features and to operate 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
the vehicle unless you delete them
and are generally accessible only in
the vehicle when the cellular phone
or media player is connected. If you
no longer plan to use the system or
the vehicle, we recommend you
perform a Master Reset to erase all
stored information.
System data cannot be accessed
without special equipment and access
to the 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® (if equipped), Vehicle Health
Report (if equipped), and Traffic,
Directions and Information (if
equipped).

until after the tone sounds and
Listening appears before saying a
command. Any command spoken
before this does not register with
the system.
• Speak naturally, without long
pauses between words.

Voice Settings
Voice settings allow you to customize
the level of system interaction, help
and feedback. The system defaults
to standard interaction which uses
candidate lists and confirmation
prompts as these provide the highest
level of guidance and feedback.
•
Interaction Mode: Novice mode
provides more detailed interaction
and guidance while the advanced
mode has less audible interaction
and more tone prompts.
• Confirmation Prompts:
These
are short questions the system
asks when it is not sure of your
request or when there are multiple
possible responses to your request.
If turned off, the system simply
makes a best guess as to what you
requested and you may still
occasionally be asked 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,
then Voice Control.
2. Select from the following:
• 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; after the tone
sounds, the system says "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
"Interaction mode novice"

Using Voice Commands with the
Touchscreen Options
Your voice system has a dual mode
feature which allows you to switch
between using voice commands and
making on-screen selections. This is
most often available when using
navigation.
On-screen buttons are outlined in blue
to indicate the selections that are part
of the dual mode feature. For
example, if while you are in a voice
session rather than saying the
command "Enter street name" to
change the field, you can press Street
and the voice session does not end.
Instead, the voice system changes to
the Street field and asks you to say
the street name. The buttons not
outlined in blue cannot be used as
voice commands; if they are touched
during a voice session, the voice
session is canceled. For example, you can choose from the
following on the Navigation home
screen:
•
My Home
• Favorites
• Previous Destinations
• Point of Interest (POI)
• Emergency
• Street Address
• Intersection
• Cancel Route.
Some of the voice commands that
are available while viewing this screen
are: Destination
"Destination my home"
"Destination street address" "Destination favorites"
