remaining coverage to the new owner.
Whenever you sell your vehicle,
prospective buyers may have a higher
degree of confidence that vehicle was
properly maintained with Ford ESP,
thereby improving resale value.

offers a Premium Maintenance Plan
that covers all scheduled
maintenance, and select items that
routinely wear out.
The coverage is prepaid, so you never
have to worry about affording your
vehicle maintenance. It covers regular
checkups, routine inspections,
preventive care and replacement of
select items that require periodic
attention for normal wear:
• Windshield Wiper Blades
• Spark Plugs (except in California) • The Clutch Disc
• Brake Pads and Linings

WARNINGS
Store the portable music player
in a secure location, such as the
center console or the glove box, when
your vehicle is moving. Hard objects
may become projectiles in a crash or
sudden stop, which may increase the
risk of serious injury. The audio
extension cable must be long enough
to allow the portable music player to
be safely stored while your vehicle is
moving.
E142622
Your A/V inputs allow you to connect
an auxiliary audio/video source (such
as a gaming systems or a personal
camcorder) by connecting RCA cords
(not included) to these input jacks.
The jacks are yellow, red and white
and are located either behind a small
access door on the instrument panel
or in your center console.
You can also use the A/V inputs as an
auxiliary input jack to play music from
your portable music player over your
vehicle's speakers. Plug in your 1/8
inch (3.5 millimeter) RCA adapter into
the two left A/V input jacks (red and
white). Press the lower left corner of the
touchscreen, and then select
A/V In.
To use the auxiliary input jack feature,
make sure that your portable music
player is designed for use with
headphones and that it is fully
charged. You also need an audio
extension cable with stereo male
1/8-inch (3.5 millimeter) connectors
at one end and a RCA jack at the
other.
1. Switch off the engine, radio and portable music player. Set the
parking brake and put the
transmission in position P.
2. Attach one end of the audio extension cable to the headphone
output of your player and the other
end into the adapter in one of the
two left A/V input jacks (white or
red) inside the center console.
3. Press the lower left corner on the touchscreen. Select either a tuned
FM station or a CD (if there is a CD
already loaded into the system).
4. Adjust the volume as desired.
5. Turn the portable music player on and adjust the volume to ½ the
maximum.
6. Press the lower left corner on the touchscreen. Select the A/V In
tab. (You should hear audio from
your portable music player
although it may be low.)
7. Adjust the sound on your portable music player until it reaches the
level of the FM station or CD by
switching back and forth between
the controls.

911 Assist (If Equipped)
WARNINGS
Unless the 911 Assist setting is
set on before a crash, the system
will not dial for help, which could
delay response time, potentially
increasing the risk of serious injury or
death after a crash.
Do not wait for 911 Assist to
make an emergency call if you
can do it yourself. Dial emergency
services immediately to avoid delayed
response time, which could increase
the risk of serious injury or death after
a crash. If you do not hear 911 Assist
within five seconds of the crash, the
system or phone may be damaged or
non-functional.
Always place your phone in a
secure location in your vehicle so
it does not become a projectile or
damaged in a crash. Failure to do so
may cause serious injury to someone
or damage the phone, which could
prevent 911 Assist from working
properly.
Note: The SYNC 911 Assist feature
must be set on prior to the incident.
Note: Before setting this feature on,
make sure that you read the 911 Assist
Privacy Notice later in this section for
important information.
