SYNC® System
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Mercury Milan, 2011 Lincoln MKZ, and 2011 Ford Fusion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The SYNC® system consists of the following:
- APIM
- SYNC®-specific steering wheel controls
- Microphone
- USB port and cable
- Audio input jack
SYNC® is a hands-free communications and entertainment system that allows the following interactions:
- Send and receive phone calls via a Bluetooth-enabled phone
- Send and receive text messages via a Bluetooth-enabled phone
- Connect media devices (such as an iPod® or USB flash device) in order to play audio files
- Play media files via a Bluetooth-enabled audio device
- Produce vehicle health reports
- Initiate an emergency call (eCall) when the air bags deploy
- Provide hands-free access to traffic reports, turn-by-turn driving directions, business listings, news, sports, and weather
The GPSM works with the SYNC® system to provide vehicle location on vehicles not equipped with navigation, as the vehicle location must be known for the traffic, directions, and information features to operate correctly.
Not all features are available with every phone.
For additional information on audio system operation, including the SYNC® system, refer to the Owner's Literature.
