Hands-free calling is one of the main
features of SYNC. Once you pair your
phone, you can access many options
using the touchscreen or voice
commands. While the system
supports a variety of features, many
are dependent on your cellular
phone’s functionality.
At a minimum, most cellular phones
with Bluetooth wireless technology
support the following functions:
• Answering an incoming call
• Ending a call
• Using privacy mode
• Dialing a number
• Redialing
• Call waiting notification
• Caller ID.
Other features, such as text
messaging using Bluetooth and
automatic phonebook download, are
phone-dependent features. To check
your phone’s compatibility, see your
device’s manual and visit
www.SYNCMyRide.com,
www.SYNCMyRide.ca or
www.syncmaroute.ca.
Pairing Your Phone for the First
Time
WARNING
Driving while distracted can
result in loss of vehicle control,
crash and injury. We strongly
recommend that you use extreme
caution when using any device that
may take your focus off the road. Your
primary responsibility is the safe
operation of your vehicle. We
recommend against the use of any
hand-held device while driving and
encourage the use of voice-operated
systems when possible. Make sure you
are aware of all applicable local laws
that may affect the use of electronic
devices while driving
The first thing you must do to use the
phone features of SYNC is to pair your
Bluetooth-enabled cellular phone
with SYNC. This allows you to use
your phone in a hands-free manner.
Note: Put the transmission in position
P. Turn on your vehicle ignition and the
radio.

Fan speed: Touch + or - to increase or decrease the volume of air
circulated in your vehicle.
C
Recirculated air: Touch the button to switch between outside air and
recirculated air. When you select recirculated air, the button illuminates
and the air currently in the passenger compartment recirculates. This
may reduce the time needed to cool the interior (when used with A/C)
and may reduce unwanted odors from entering your vehicle.
Recirculated air may turn off automatically in all airflow modes except
MAX A/C to reduce the possibility of fogging.
D
MAX A/C: Touch to switch on. The system distributes recirculated air
through the instrument panel air vents, air conditioning automatically
turns on and fan speed adjusts to the highest speed. This re-cooling
of the interior is more economical and efficient than normal A/C.
E
A/C: Touch to turn air conditioning on or off. To improve air
conditioning when starting your vehicle, drive with the windows slightly
open for two to three minutes. Use A/C with recirculated air to improve
cooling performance and efficiency.
F
AUTO: Touch to turn on fully automatic operation. Select the desired
temperature using the temperature control. The system automatically
adjusts fan speed, air distribution, A/C operation, and outside or
recirculated air, to heat or cool the vehicle to maintain the selected
temperature.
G
Rear defroster: Touch to turn the rear window defroster and heated
mirrors (if equipped).
