airbag LINCOLN MKZ 2016 Owner's Guide

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.
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, excluding knee
airbags and rear inflatable safety belts where
fitted 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. For more
information about the 911 Assist feature visit:
Website
visit www.SYNCMyRide.com www.SYNCMyRide.cawww.syncmaroute.ca
See Supplementary Restraints System
(page 44). Important information regarding
airbag deployment is in this chapter.
See Roadside Emergencies (page 251).
Important information regarding the fuel
pump shut-off is in this chapter.

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. • A connected Bluetooth-enabled phone
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
(approximately 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 Assisthardware sustains damage in a crash.
• The vehicle's battery or the SYNC system has no power.
• The phones(s) previously paired or connected to the system are thrown from
the vehicle.
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.Vehicle Health Report
