SYNC Services (If Equipped,
United States Only)
Note:SYNC Services requires
activation before use. Visit
www.SYNCMyRide.com to register and
check your eligibility for complimentary
services. Standard phone and message
rates may apply. Subscription may be
required. You must also have the active
SYNC Services Bluetooth-enabled
cellular phone paired and connected
to the system in order to connect to,
and use, SYNC Services. See Phone
(page 385).
Note: This feature does not function
properly if you have enabled caller ID
blocking on your cellular phone. Make
sure your cellular phone is not blocking
caller ID before using SYNC Services.
Note: The driver is ultimately
responsible for the safe operation of
the vehicle, and therefore, must
evaluate whether it is safe to follow
the suggested directions. Any
navigation features provided are only
an aid. Make your driving decisions
based on your observations of local
conditions and existing traffic
regulations. Do not follow the route
suggestions if doing so would result in
an unsafe or illegal maneuver, if you
would be placed in an unsafe situation,
or if you would be directed into an area
that you consider unsafe. Maps used
by this system may be inaccurate
because of errors, changes in roads,
traffic conditions or driving conditions. Note:
When you connect, the service
uses GPS technology and advanced
vehicle sensors to collect your vehicle's
current location, travel direction and
speed to help provide you with the
directions, traffic reports, or business
searches you request. Further, to
provide the services you request, for
continuous improvement, the service
may collect and record call details and
voice communications. For more
information, see SYNC Services Terms
and Conditions at
www.SYNCMyRide.com. If you do not
want Ford or its service providers to
collect your vehicle travel information
or other information identified in the
Terms and Conditions, do not subscribe
or use the service.
SYNC Services uses advanced vehicle
sensors, integrated GPS technology
and comprehensive map and traffic
data, to give you personalized traffic
reports, precise turn-by-turn
directions, business search, news,
sports, weather and more. For a
complete list of services, or to learn
more, please visit
www.SYNCMyRide.com.

If your vehicle is not equipped with
Navigation:
• Turn-by-turn directions appear inthe information display, in the
status bar of your touchscreen
system and on the SYNC Services
screen. You also receive driving
instructions from audible prompts.
• When on an active route, you can select Route Summary or Route
Status using the touchscreen
controls or voice commands to
view the Route Summary Turn
List or the Route Status ETA.
You can also turn voice guidance
on or off, cancel the route or
update the route. If you miss a turn, SYNC automatically
asks if you want the route updated.
Just say, "Yes" when prompted and
the system delivers a new route to
your vehicle.
If your vehicle is equipped with
Navigation, SYNC Services downloads
your requested destination to the
navigation system. The navigation
system then calculates the route and
provides driving instructions. See
Navigation (page 407).
Disconnecting from SYNC Services
1. Press and hold the hang-up phone
button on the steering wheel.
2. Say "Good-bye" from the SYNC Services main menu.

Note:If any user turns 911 Assist on or
off, that setting applies for all paired
phones. If 911 Assist is turned off, either
a voice message plays or a display
message (or icon) comes on (or both)
when your vehicle is started after a
previously paired phone connects.
Note: Every phone operates differently.
While SYNC 911 Assist works with most
cellular phones, some may have
trouble using this feature.
If a crash deploys an airbag (excludes
knee airbags and rear inflatable safety
belts [if equipped]) or activates the
fuel pump shut-off, your
SYNC-equipped vehicle may be able
to contact emergency services by
dialing 911 through a paired and
connected Bluetooth-enabled phone.
You can learn more about the 911
Assist feature, visit
www.SYNCMyRide.com,
www.SYNCMyRide.ca or
www.syncmaroute.ca.
See Supplementary Restraints
System (page 42). Important
information regarding airbag
deployment is in this chapter.
See Roadside Emergencies (page
243). Important information regarding
the fuel pump shut-off is in this
chapter. Setting 911 Assist On
E142608
If your vehicle is equipped
with Navigation, touch the i
(Information) button to
access these features. If your vehicle
is not equipped with Navigation, touch
the corner of the touchscreen with the
green tab.
Touch Apps > 911 Assist, then select
On.
E142607
You can also access 911
Assist by:
• Pressing the Settings icon > Settings > Phone > 911 Assist,
or
• Pressing the Settings icon > Help > 911 Assist.
To make sure that 911 Assist works
properly:
• SYNC must be powered and working properly at the time of the
incident and throughout feature
activation and use.
• The 911 Assist feature must be set on prior to the incident.
• You must pair and connect a Bluetooth-enabled and
compatible 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.

MyLincoln Touchâ„¢

• A connected Bluetooth-enabledphone must have adequate
network coverage, battery power
and signal strength.
• The vehicle must have battery power and be located in the United
States, Canada or in a territory in
which 911 is the emergency
number.
In the Event of a Crash
Not all crashes deploy an airbag or
activate the fuel pump shut-off
(which would trigger 911 Assist);
however, SYNC tries to contact
emergency services if 911 Assist
triggers. If a connected phone sustains
damage or loses connection to SYNC,
SYNC searches for, and tries to
connect to, any available previously
paired phone and tries to make the
call to 911.
Before making the call:
• SYNC provides a short window of time (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, and then the
occupant(s) in your vehicle is 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.
911 Assist May Not Work If
• Your cellular phone or 911 Assist
hardware sustains damage in a
crash.
• The vehicle's battery or the SYNC system has no power.
• The phone(s) thrown from your vehicle are the ones paired and
connected to the system.
911 Assist Privacy Notice
When you turn on 911 Assist, it may
disclose to emergency services that
your vehicle has been in a crash
involving the deployment of an airbag
or activation of the fuel pump
shut-off. Certain versions or updates
to 911 Assist may also be capable of
electronically or verbally disclosing to
911 operators your vehicle location or
other details about your vehicle or
crash to assist 911 operators to
provide the most appropriate
emergency services. If you do not
want to disclose this information, do
not turn the feature on.
