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.
400
MyLincoln Touch™
Page 404 of 468

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.
401
MyLincoln Touch™
Page 405 of 468

• 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.

you suspect. Vehicle Health Report
supplements, but cannot replace,
normal maintenance and vehicle
inspection. Vehicle Health Report only
monitors certain systems
electronically monitored by your
vehicle and will not monitor or report
the status of any other system, (such
as brake lining wear). Failure to

regularly inspect your vehicle may
result in vehicle damage and serious
injury.

the United States.
Note: Your Vehicle Health Report
feature requires activation prior to use.

properly if you have enabled caller ID
blocking on your cellular phone. Before
running a report, review the Vehicle
Health Report Privacy Notice.
Note: In order to allow a break-in

collects for any purpose. If you do not
want to disclose your cellular phone
number or vehicle information, do not

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

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.
